Remove marriage from the equation of your life, and you will realize that you donโt have any career pressure, pressure to buy a home at 30, or pressure to buy a car at 30. You will have your whole life to do whatever you want to do. Itโs just marriage that puts us in a situation where we feel pressured to achieve all these things at an early age. Thatโs because we have been conditioned by society to believe that you need to achieve these things if youโre going to get married.
#Tamhini rocks with the first 8,000 mm seasonal #rainfall milestone in the country! ๐ง๏ธโฐ๏ธ
With 50 mm of rainfall recorded Today on the unique occasion of #NaagPanchami On first #Shravani#Somawar of this year ๐ , Tamhini #Ghat has become the first station in the #SahyadriGhat regionโand indeed the first in the countryโto cross the remarkable 8,000 mm seasonal rainfall mark during #Monsoon2026.
As of 17 August 2026, Tamhini's seasonal rainfall has reached an astounding 8,041 mm, highlighting the exceptional strength and persistence of this year's southwest monsoon over the central #WesternGhats.
What makes this achievement even more extraordinary is the speed at which it has occurred. Tamhini crossed the 8,000 mm mark in just 55 days, with the monsoon arriving relatively late this year on 23 June.
๐ง๏ธ How Tamhini reached 8,041 mm
- #June: 369 mm
- #July: 5,710 mm โ potentially Tamhini's wettest July on record
- #August: 1,962 mm โ up to 17 August
- Seasonal total: 8,041 mm
July alone contributed more than 5.7 metres of rainfall, followed by another nearly 2 metres in just the first 17 days of August.
The sheer intensity and concentration of rainfall over such a short period make this an extraordinary meteorological event. Tamhini has once again demonstrated why the central Sahyadri Ghats are among the world's most extreme #monsoon rainfall environments.
Nature has truly put on a spectacular show this #SWM2026. ๐ง๏ธ๐ฟโฐ๏ธ

Congratulations Joshua Hazlewood on 300 test wickets! An Aussie legend and one of the finest contemporary bowlers in our generation ๐ ๐ ๐
Put in years of hardwork, persisted and results are there for all to see.
Even though the past 5 years haven't gone well for him from an injury viewpoint it cannot take away the fact he's a world class bowler and a modern day legend!
Incredible achievement.
Lyon,Starc, Cummins and Hazlewood have over 300 test wickets. To have 4 bowlers playing the same time get those many wickets it is praiseworthy.
This is what separates Ben Stokes from the rest & sums up what a workhorse,warrior and true champion he is :
-99 overs across three Tests in the Caribbean, on what @CricViz rated as the second most batting friendly series since 2005.
-Then, in that very same year, nearly 280 overs in Test cricket. ๐ฎ
-Headingley in 2019, 18 overs on the bounce across two sessions.
-Old Trafford in 2022, the same relentless intensity against South Africa.
-Ahmedabad. Brutal heat. While others searched for relief,Stokes kept running in, delivering 11 over spells without complaint.
-New Zealand in 2024. Injured,but refused to stop. Bowled through the pain and paid the price with months on the sidelines.
-Edgbaston in the 2023 Ashes. A damaged knee, yet when England needed a breakthrough, the captain took the ball himself.
-Pakistan in 2022. Another punishing 10-12 over spell.
-That is leadership. Not standing at mid off waving your bowlers on.
It is taking the hardest job yourself, dragging your team with you and asking for one more over when your body is screaming for you to stop. That is Ben Stokes.
Well done ๐
So many thoughts on Stokes!
That 2013 series, the Double ton, that moment when MS first learnt about him scoring a ton, the RPS century, the 2019 WC, the unreal crazy spells and random wickets.
True to his promise, he ensured you were entertained, one way or the other!
They need 2 bowlers who bowl in the 1st 4 overs and last 4 overs. Bhuvi and Hazlewood will be in their 37th year. Asking Bhuvi to repeat this year's performance is having too much expectations. It's not going to happen.
If RCB has to go 3 peat then they'll again have to take 35 wkts in Powerplay.
