Skipper Rohit Sharma & team ready to fire on all cylinders

Melbourne: Skipper Rohit Sharma will look to feast on a Zimbabwe bowling attack in his bid to play an innings that is long overdue in a must-win game of the T20 World Cup here on Sunday. Rohit has been playing some good shots but save the game against the Netherlands, he hasn't fired much in other games. In that context, the match against Zimbabwe is a must-win game for the Indian team, which is runaway favourites to pummel Regis Chakabva's side whose campaign started in style but tapered off towards the end. While the Indian team has not tinkered much with the batting order, Axar Patel was dropped against South Africa because of the multiple left-handed players in their line-up. Although it was an ODI tour and India's top T20 players didn't figure in that series, the core of the Zimbabwe team is same.

Hilltop coal-mining town a tactical prize in Ukraine war

Russia sends battalion-sized scout groups to probe Ukrainian lines and shoot artillery toward their positions with an eye to pushing north toward the critical N15 highway, a key supply route. Russian forces ramped up attacks beginning on January 24, residents said. "By capturing Vuhledar, Russians can easily occupy the entire Donetsk region." From their perch in the town, Ukrainian forces can see into Russian lines and have so far been able to repel Russian attempts to encircle Vuhledar. Even in the event of victory in Vuhledar, Russia would still need a lot of combat power to push north.

The king rises: Kohli conjures up magical knock to script stunning victory over Pak

I have no idea how that happened," Kohli said after his incredible knock. Kohli was bowled off the no-ball but Kohli and Karthik ran three runs and equation became two from two. In no time, India were 31 for 4 and Kohli and Pandya needed to consolidate for the next four overs without losing wicket. India needed 60 from last five overs but Rauf and Naseem gave only six runs each in the 16th and 17th over. Earlier, Arshdeep bowled a dream first spell and Pandya displayed his true worth in the back-10 as India restricted Pakistan to a manageable 159 for eight.

Find a firm footing

Sunak himself averred that the UK faces a "profound economic challenge" which can be fixed only by "ensuring stability and unity." What Sunak confesses is almost obvious but the quest for stability and unity is not a sure thing at the present moment. It is almost clear as day that Sunak prioritises taming inflation over making tax cuts. His decision may not be popular as UK citizens are in desperate need of tax cuts. Given the flux the UK is in presently, no party can provide absolute certainty on the matter of addressing economic challenges.

Govt okays environmental release of GM mustard

New Delhi: In a major move aimed at making India a self-reliant in oilseed production, the government has approved environmental release of genetically modified (GM) mustard hybrid DMH-11, which is the first crop to get such a tag since Bt cotton years ago. Patents on GM mustard are jointly owned by India's National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) and the University of Delhi under Prof Deepak Pental, who faced the charges of plagiarism. "Commercial cultivation of GM crops would help in fostering food security due to increased yields and reduced costs for food production. The GEAC said on the website that the recommendation to release GM mustard is for four years from the date of issue of the approval letter. However, the per hectare yield of Indian mustard is very low at 1-1.2 tonnes per hectare.
