@goibibo@airindia flight from doha to mumbai was cancelled by airline. @goibibo deducted 20000 rupees and refunded only 14000 rupees. This is clear case of violation of rules. This airlines are taking advantage of situation. Resolve it asap. @JM_Scindia@DrSJaishankar
@ShubmanGill Bolbachan, stop talking and show some results. You guys have been embarassing to say the least. Its not even about loss but the lack of fight hurts even more.
🚨SACK AGARKAR - SAVE INDIA🚨
For far too long Ajit Agarkar has selected far lesser deserving players in the India squad & it has resulted in lack of options & combination.
-Dhruv Jurel making into squad across formats. What has he done to deserve this?
-Players like Rinku Singh with a 56+ FC average are not picked in longer formats.
-NKR is selected but under utilised. Why not pick a proper skillful player?
- Sai Sudharsan got picked on what basis.
-Shardul Thakur in England whom Captain didn't care to notice.
-Lack of communication with ousted players, the latest instance Mohammed Shami and Rahane exposing Agarkar.
-No transparency wrt Sarfaraz.
-What has Devdutt done to get into the squad?
All the burnt of this has to be borne by Gambhir who unfortunately has to side with the fact that India got whitewashed twice under his tenure because of squad selection and the poor performance of senior experienced players earlier and younger inexperienced players now.
Utterly disappointed to see second white wash at home. No stability, no vision, no plan. Too much chopping and changing. We play on green track in domestic but have turners for Tests. Few batsmen with Test temperament. India needs to rethink their Test strategy at home.
Still scratching my head to find out if Nitish Kumar Reddy was playing this Test as a batter, bowler, all-rounder or just because he is a right-hander.

Gautam Gambhir: “That’s up to the BCCI to decide. Indian cricket is important, I am not important. Don’t forget that I’m the same guy under whom we drew in England, won Champions Trophy, won Asia Cup”
Truth is all that has been squandered the last two weeks
Indian cricket has been rewarding mediocrity for some time now. And mediocrity has become poor now. We are all to blame for celebrating mediocrity - that’s been the nadir of Indian red-ball cricket

I've been watching test cricket for 30 years and I don't remember our test team being this awful at home.
2 whitewashes at home in a span of a year is simply unacceptable.
Whether it’s a spinning ball or now a fast and bouncy wicket, my tweet from last week rings TRUE again - batters techniques these days are flawed for Test Match cricket.
And, like I said, who cares, cos it’s not where their bread is buttered and you can’t blame them!
Enjoy the bumpy ride of 6s, 4s and wickets!

When I started competing, I had a small dream - to one day compete alongside the able-bodied and win medals ♥️ I didn’t make it at first, but I kept going, learning from every setback.
Now, that dream is one step closer. 🌟
In the Asia Cup trials, I secured Rank 3 and will now represent India in the Asia Cup - in the able-bodied category. 🇮🇳
Dreams take time. Work. Believe. Repeat. 💫
What I like most about this India victory is that it wasn’t the superstars wot won it. A knock from Shafali, a dig from Richa, some all round Deepti resilience. None are their headline acts. But such a core part of this team’s story. Fabulous. Here’s to the legacy. #CWC25
DEEPTI SHARMA’S WORLD CUP REDEMPTION 💪
2017: Fell when India needed 11 off 12 in the final 🥺
2022: Overstepped with the match on the line 💔
2025: Player of the Series as India lift the World Cup 🏆
What an inspiring story! 👏

I had a 20 minute conversation on the phone with Mr Sivakumar today and felt so utterly helpless at the end of it. He broke down in tears many times. From placing his daughter’s body in the morgue to the response of the police, from cremation grounds to cops, he spoke of hostile red tape and open corruption. This for a man mourning the death of his 34 year old daughter. Blood boiling and heart breaking
In September 2025, K. Sivakumar, former Chief Financial Officer of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL)—a Maharatna public sector giant in India's oil refining and marketing—lost his only daughter, Akshaya, a 34-year-old IIM Ahmedabad graduate, to a brain hemorrhage. Devastated, Sivakumar's grief turned into a harrowing ordeal as he navigated Bengaluru's official formalities. From the ambulance driver demanding ₹5,000 to transport her body, to police at Bellandur station rudely extorting cash for the FIR and post-mortem report, crematorium staff insisting on bribes for a receipt, and BBMP officials haggling for the death certificate—corruption stalked every step. In a viral LinkedIn post (now deleted), the 64-year-old broke down, sobbing: "I had money, so I paid. What will the poor do?" He questioned the humanity of a system that preys on the vulnerable, asking if titans like Narayana Murthy could save Bengaluru from anarchy.
BPCL, his lifelong employer since 1987, offered silent condolences but no public intervention, highlighting the disconnect between corporate stature and civic rot. Two police officers were suspended amid outrage, yet this is mere optics.
Shame on this predatory bureaucracy! In a nation boasting digital India and anti-corruption crusades, officials exploit death's raw agony for petty cash, turning grief into a transaction. Police, meant to protect, bully the broken; civic bodies, funded by taxpayers, feast on despair. This isn't governance—it's vampirism, where the affluent buy passage but the poor are buried alive in red tape. Karnataka's Congress regime, wake up! Suspend more than scapegoats; dismantle this cesspool with CCTV mandates, zero-tolerance probes, and fast-track grief desks. Billionaire philanthropists, fund the fight—expose every leech. India deserves dignity in death, not this barbaric toll. If a BPCL titan weeps, imagine the silenced screams of the destitute. What was top officials of giant oil company doing at the time of his grief. He was your Ex CFO. Why for CFO, even for a clerk who after serving 35 years and after retirement, you should come to your employee rescue. Local territory manager should have provided all help. Otherwise what is the point of working for such giant oil company? System is rotten. CM of Karnataka @siddaramaiah and Dy chief minister @DKShivakumar must take stringent action against all involved in harassing this helpless gentleman. It is congress govt. @RahulGandhi@priyankagandhi and @kharge must find out what has exactly happened. Why this man is crying not so much for his grief ( which obviously is major thing) but for petty corruption at every step from transporting body from hospital by ambulance to death certificate. @DILIPtheCHERIAN@bainjal@rohini_sgh@HardeepSPuri@sakshijoshii @NidhiKNDTV @sardesairajdeep
Jemimah Rodrigues, take a bow. What an incredible performance by our women to beat the mighty Aussies by chasing down the highest ever total in Women's ODI history.
Wow wow wow.
