Former Prime Minister Johnson, who returned from a Caribbean holiday earlier in the day aiming to launch an audacious political comeback just weeks after leaving office, met ex-Finance Minister Sunak to discuss the race, the BBC and others reported. Mr. Johnson cut short a luxury stay in the Dominican Republic to join the seemingly three-way tussle, with allies saying he was “up for it”. “We must move on,” he urged the Tories, adding they “must get behind a capable leader who can deliver a Conservative programme” who he identified as ex-Finance Minister Sunak.

Over the last year, the rivals have faced-off thrice — once during the 2021 T20 World Cup and twice in the recent Asia Cup. “Luckily for us, we got to play them in Asia Cup twice, otherwise we don’t play them at all. So it’s very hard to gauge what sort of mindset they play with, and for those two games that we played in Asia Cup,” he added. India will open their T20 World Cup campaign in a much-anticipated clash against arch-rivals Pakistan at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, here on Sunday.

U.K. is ready to support manufacture of Indian jet engines, says British High Commissioner Alex Ellis

At the Expo, India and U.K. announced a new defence industry joint working group to strengthen defence collaboration which also held its first meeting. “What the U.K. brings is high levels of expertise and technology in everything from missiles to engines.

And we’ve also seen the effectiveness of Ukrainian response with support from the U.K. and other countries. “And the future, frankly, is a tougher one, both in the Indo-Pacific and also in the European theatre and we can actually gain strength from being together,” Mr. Ellis said.
