🚨 NO ROHIT SHARMA FOR WORLD CUP. 🚨
- Lord’s could be Rohit’s final ODI as the selectors have conveyed him he’s not part of the 2027 World Cup plans. (Express Sports).
So, they selected Vaibhav Suryavanshi at cost of their POTT player Sanju Samson, given him 3 games & destroyed his confidence too.
Now, Vaibhav Suryavanshi is dropped now. Just look at Vaibhav, how destroyed he is.
If some sane people were running Indian cricket then Vaibhav would have got selected for Ireland & Zimbabwe series & Abhishek/Samson for England series. But sadly, India's chief selector is a clown!
I worked in Punjab as a journalist during the peak of militancy. Later in my career, I headed the Punjab Cell in the CBI, which had, in its past, investigated cases of fake encounters as well as the assassination of Sardar Beant Singh.
Those experiences gave me a rare opportunity to see both sides of that tragic period. They taught me that any honest account of those years must acknowledge both sides of the story.
And that is exactly my concern with Satluj: not what it shows, but what it leaves out. It tells only half the truth; the other half is left unsaid, deliberately, and with a purpose.
The film decontextualizes Jaswant Singh Khalra and the human rights debate from the Pakistan-backed, brutal Khalistani insurgency. This omission is neither an innocent creative choice nor an inadvertent one. And, in my view, the intent behind such a selective portrayal should matter to every Indian.
Kapil Dev on Sikhism: do listen in how Hindu families in Punjab historically sent their first-born son to fight for the land as a ‘warrior’ and that was an initiation for them to be called a ‘Sikh’ 🪯
“My own Massi’s elder son became a Sikh”
KPS GILL had few Regrets.
On collateral harm: Loss of innocent lives during the Khalistani movement was regrettable & said he felt sorry if anyone had to leave Punjab simply for not being Sikh.
Regret for not being given an opportunity to stabilise Kashmir.
Movies like Satluj won't show you this.
They won't show you that on this day, 7th July 1987, Hindu passengers travelling towards Rishikesh being lined up and massacred by Khalistani Commando Force (KCF) terrorists simply because they were Hindus.
They won't show you that within 24 hours, more than 72 innocent Hindus were s1aughtered in coordinated bus attacks
But don't be surprised if one day they make a film portraying "Kulwinder Singh Mahi" the mastermind of the Lalru massacre as nothing more than a "victim of an extrajudicial klling"
This man doesn’t need any introduction movie or propaganda , he rose above Religion & caste and did what nation demanded from him to keep India together 🇮🇳.
Nation is indebted to you sir 🙏.
When Jadeja wields his bat like a sword, several get butt-hurt. While the Norwegians have made the Viking Row (mimicking boat rowing of Vikings when they went to battle) such an amazing cultural export. The heterogeneity of this nation has created so many vectors that the sum total cultural vector is diminished.
One of England's all-time greatest captains, Ben Stokes, has decided to retire from international cricket at the end of this Test match.
Ben, you have been the most inspirational captain, leader and legend this team could have ever hoped for.
We love you so much and wish you all the best in your retirement ❤️
England will never be the same again.
It’s been a minute.

Today
CRED is ready for its next phase. I am stepping back and @miten steps in as interim CEO, partnered with an incredibly talented team. He has been heading strategy and finance and suffering me since 2020. I’m stepping away from the operating role and will continue as a shareholder. My commitment doesn’t change. Just the role.
Extremely grateful to our members, partners, regulators, and investors who made this possible. And to our board, Shailendra, Micky, Saurabh for their extraordinary conviction.
Team CRED, I’ll still expect you to be a 10x version of yourselves.
As for me, I’ll be joining Meta to lead WhatsApp globally.
Meta comes in as a minority investor in CRED. No access to member data.
While it’s come very far, the delta between WhatsApp today and its full potential is massive. I look forward to working with Mark, Chris, and the leadership across Meta for the next step in WhatsApp’s journey. Will, thank you for scaling something the world relies on quietly, and for making this transition smooth.
Onwards.
Just realised Vaibhav looks at 50 overs cricket as a format where he can create even more mayhem!
What with 2 fielders outside the circle for 10 overs! & not 6. 😳👏👏👏
#SonySports
Young Vaibhav decides to sledge with the bat. 50 of 11 balls in the final and few cricket pundits wanted him to be dropped for this game. What world are we living in ?
Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei stated in a Bloomberg interview that the India AI Summit was "extremely disorganised".
About the chaos on stage: "There was Narendra Modi up there suddenly telling everyone to hold hands..." (collapses with laughter).
India’s IT ministry banned Telegram for one week because some users shared leaked exam questions.
This punishes 150M+ ordinary Telegram users in India — not the insiders who leaked the exam materials.
And the ban hasn't stopped anything. The leaks just moved to other apps.
Hello GoI, I heard all paper leaks have moved to Slack, MS-teams, Google chat and Zoom. Please block all of these services immediately and indefinitely. For good measure, also block Google and Microsoft's enterprise email services. You never know who uses what to leak papers.
