3 match points down and then coming back to win and make her entry into the gold medal match. And a chance to qualify directly for LA’28.

Anahat Singh for you ladies and gentleman!

Was revisiting the music of ‘Zakhm’. Still believe it is one of the highly underrated albums of Bollywood. M.M. Keeravani (Kreem) has some done stellar work here.

BREAKING

Here’s what happened with Suchika Tariyal

The fight was awarded to Singapore and India protested.

To protest you pay 1000 usd non refundable. The money was paid by the Federation and Nikhil Kunder.

The fight is normally judged by 3 judges but in arbitration it is judged by 10 judges.

They checked all footage and said it was a draw.

Once they said it was a draw the rule that whoever is lighter kicked in and Suchika was 700 grams more than her opponent.

This is a real heartbreak. She did not lose but the rules are such that she ends up with a bronze. @RevSportzGlobal @RohanDC98

Serie A used to be the best league in the world by the way. 🤯🤯🇮🇹

Now it looks like a charity match.

Not everyday you get to meet, greet and speak with a legend in Indian Sports journalism. Grateful to have him sign the copies of the books I have treasured over the years! Thank you @gulu1959 🙏

First 3rd place team from the group stages to knock out a top team from another group! Fair game? #GERvsPAR

Did the @ZEE5India presenter just refer to the Croatian game as ‘Serbian game earlier’ to Igor Stimac? Faux pas at it’s highest level 😂

The long wait for Sasha ends. He should have won the 2022 RG- was playing in an unbeatable fashion until that stretch which twisted his leg/ankle. Some part of me is happy - always wanted to see him at least one grand slam.

[Bhaskar Chakraborty @bhaskurt]

@vinayakkm Going the Del Potro way 😕 Hope he ends up winning at least one major

It takes 16 years to defeat Novak Djokovic after conceding the first two sets. The last time this happened was in the Quarter finals of the 2010 French Open when a certain Jurgen Melzer stunned the 24 time champion.

Well played Fonseca!

Do editors or critics who want clickbait always solicit contrarian reviews?

This is painfully embarrassing.

The national board of education in India just generated an image on ChatGPT to “prove” that they’re secure after a 19yo showed you can edit marks of 2M test takers on their platform.

That is after trying to deny they got hacked using a domain they didn’t own (to prove it, they bought by the domain and redirected it to the blog post about the hack).

Then they claimed (falsely) that no production data was on those servers that was immediately proven false.

These are levels of incompetence we have never seen. The fate of 2M+ students a year rests in these hands. Pathetic.

This is one of the instances when a question I often used to mutter in my mind during my school days got answered, When will India have her Steve Waugh, it’s own Ricky Ponting? Did not take much time to answer in the years to follow.. https://t.co/iQl9NOXMvC

Buyer beware

I have pointed it out before every single tech founder keeps their own children away from screens - at home and at school.

Steve Bobs. Bill Gates. Mark Zuckerberg. Jeff Bezos.Elon Musk.
Same story with every one of them

THEY know what the screens do to the brain, especially since they have specifically designed their products for addiction and basically lowering brain function.

THAT is why for the first time we have a situation where the next generation is scoring LOWER on cognitive tests.

YOU decide for your kids...and for yourself.

@DrAyeshaRay @ranjona For a moment I thought Kunal Vijayakar is back with ‘The Week that was not’ .. was waiting for Cyrus Broacha to turn up tbh
