This is a terrible idea. The current stadium is more than enough for cricket needs.
Making another massive cricket stadium in a city that already has a very decent one, just for 7 IPL games and one odd rotation international match every 3 years is a criminal waste of money.
Please make smaller mixed use facilities that support different sports, commercial activities and concerts and shows like the Ajax stadium.
Or if you have to spend it on cricket, you have 33 districts, many would love to have a decent cricket pitch.
Nobody wants #Journalism to die. The person who can save this today is @sudhirchaudhary. Convince him to end his farcical show on TV. Take him to Tihar.
If Sudhir wants to make a point, he can start by becoming an official party spokesperson but please spare Journalism. Don't turn your profession into political campaign tool.
Maybe Shekhar Suman made a mistake here - he thought that this was the '90s - where he could recreate the TV magic of Movers & Shakers - on the internet.
But this is Naya Bharat.
There is good reason why (despite having HUNDREDS of news channels) we don't have a SINGLE late night / news satire show on TV. Very soon the remaining traces will be removed from the internet.
Tendulkar was a true great, but played for an increasingly self confident country on its way to becoming a cultural and economic superpower.
For most of his career Sunil Gavaskar batted for the self respect of a third world country and its despairing middle class whose ultimate ambition was a government job or a green card. The Sehwags, Gangulys and Dhonis who followed have given us ample reason to celebrate, but for most of his cricketing career Sunil Gavaskar would just make sure that millions could get up and face their bus or train commute the next morning.
Happy birthday Sunil Gavaskar.
You were the original rock.
If a corporator thinks it’s okay to beat up a doctor, then the next time there’s a pothole in a road in his area, is it okay to beat him?
Asking for several friends
New Zealand have quietly become the trendsetters in Test cricket having now comprehensively won away series against two countries most difficult to beat at home. The best part is they’ll neither talk about setting trends nor about revolutionising Test cricket
Remember that 2013 Champions Trophy well. We waited all day, think we even passed the cut-off time before everyone agreed to play a 20 over game. To defend 129, to play spin at the end, that stroke of luck with Ishant, it was one of Dhoni's finest hours. And it was a joy to call it.
@aajtak@anjanaomkashyap इससे क्रिकेट की भाषा में समझते है -
सहवाग
पहली पारी: 1 रन
दूसरी पारी: 2 रन
वृद्धि = 100%
सचिन
पहली पारी: 100 रन
दूसरी पारी: 150 रन
वृद्धि = 50%
अब अगर media सिर्फ प्रतिशत देखकर कहे कि सहवाग, सचिन से बेहतर बल्लेबाज़ है, तो समस्या आँकड़ों में नहीं, समझ में है।
Despite it all, we made it further than the Colorado Avalanche.
We beat the 5th and 4th best teams in the NHL.
We finished 6th overall.
We were the 3rd last team in the playoffs to be eliminated.
#Habs are not frauds. They have work to do, but they'll be back and better.
Yesterday, I posted about my sibling’s petrol car getting stranded on the road due to a fuel pump failure. The company itself confirmed it was linked to a fuel blending issue related to ethanol.
But unfortunately, I had to delete the post because of immense pressure from higher authorities. For the first time in my life, I was forced to take down something purely out of concern for family safety and precautions.
The unfortunate truth is that whenever someone speaks up about ethanol-related issues, attempts are made to silence them. This may continue, but these problems won’t disappear and tomorrow it could be my own car stranded the same way.
