MS Dhoni had said at the end of the 2023 Indian Premier League (IPL), in which he led Chennai Super Kings to a record-equalling fifth title, that he will strive to play one more year at least as a way to say thanks to the team's fans and those around the country who lauded him throughout the year. The legendary former India captain has fulfilled that promise by playing this season, despite dealing with a knee injury that has often resulted in him limping after the match with an ice-pack strapped around the aching joint.

India wins by 243 runs
No one really saw this coming, did we.
India has just thumped the second-in-table South Africa by 243 runs. It all started with Rohit Sharma who got India off to a flier. Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer consolidated from there on, with the latter scoring his 49th ODI hundred, drawing him level with Sachin Tendulkar. Cameos from Suryakumar Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja ensured India finished with a flourish.
From there on, it was all about the Indian bowlers. Siraj struck the first blow, removing the dangerous Quinton de Kock. Once Shami dismantled the rest of the top-order, Jadeja began his show, ending with a five-wicket haul as Indian secured an eighth consecutive win at the World Cup and seals the top spot in the points table.

NOVEMBER 05, 2023 18:30

Fuller and this time Jadeja clears the extra cover region for back-to-back boundaries. Kohli finished with a single as India managed 325 after the end of 50 overs. He will carry his bat on 101*.

Tabraiz Shamsi into the attack. He starts with a couple of wides but the second over is turned out to be a front-foot no-ball. Kohli fails to find a connection in the free hit. A weird over comes to an end with so many hits and misses and tonnes of wides.

Bumrah and Shami hunted in tandem to deal a decisive blow, leaving England at 39 for four in the 10th over.
LUCKNOW: Indian cricket team continued their supreme run in the ongoing edition of World Cup and defeated England by 100 runs in Lucknow on Sunday.
The emphatic win would not have been possible without the special effort of skipper Rohit (87 off 101 balls), whose sublime knock stood out as most Indian batters fell by the wayside on a two-paced pitch.
Suryakumar Yadav (49) got the much needed runs in the death overs to push India to 229 for nine. Shami (4/22) and Bumrah (3/32) stole the show with the ball for the unstoppable hosts as England batters once against cut a sorry figure as they slumped to 129 all out in 34.5 overs for their fifth loss in six games.
England are virtually out of semifinal contention while India, the only unbeaten side in the tournament, are almost there. Having put up a below par total, India needed early wickets to put pressure on a struggling England batting unit.
Bumrah and Shami hunted in tandem to deal a decisive blow, leaving England at 39 for four in the 10th over. Play and miss was a regular feature of the powerplay as both Bumrah and Shami troubled the batters with a Test match length.
Bumrah got rid of Dawid Malan (16) and Joe Root (0) off successive balls to be on a hat-trick while Shami also did the same by castling Jonny Bairstow (14) and Ben Stokes (0), who had a moment of brain fade after being beaten multiples time.
Stokes wanted to make room to smash Shami out of the park but got himself in a nothing position to see his stumps rattled.
Bumrah and Shami's first spell figures read an envious 5-1-17-2 and 4-0-5-2 respectively. Kuldeep Yadav made it 52 for five by dismissing skipper Jos Buttler (10) with a stunning ball that pitched way outside the off stump and turned back sharply to crash the stumps. Shami came back into the attack and had Moeen Ali (15) caught behind for his third wicket.
At 81 for six, there was no coming back for a clueless England. There was plenty of dew on the park in the evening but it wasn't an issue for the India bowlers. Earlier, India got to bat first for the first time in the tournament. It was, however, only Rohit and Suryakumar who found a way to bat on a tricky pitch that had a two-paced wicket while the others perished trying to force the pace.
The 91-run partnership between Rohit and K L Rahul (39 off 58) stabilised the innings after India found themselves at 40 for three in the 12th over. Rohit also added 33 valuable runs with Suryakumar but the skipper's fall led to a clutch of wickets.
There’s no stopping this Indian Team. The Men in Blue look like the most complete side in this World Cup as they clinched their fourth successive win in the tournament by beating Bangladesh by seven wickets in Pune. A record-breaking 48th ODI hundred by King Kohli and twin wickets each to seamers and Jadeja, alongside a maiden CWC fifty by Shubman Gill, put India ahead.
Bangladesh won the toss on Thursday and decided to bat first, with regular captain Shakib Al Hasan missing out due to an injury. The opening pair of Tanzid Hasan and Litton Das began slowly but picked up the pace after the fifth over.
India’s Hardik Pandya suffered a horrific-looking injury while attempting to stop the ball. He was taken to the hospital for the scans immediately. With Bangladesh going strong, ace-spinner Kuldeep Yadav broke the partnership by trapping in front of the wickets on 51.
Rohit Sharma scored 86 runs after a dominating show by the bowlers. Shreyas Iyer proved instrumental in India's emphatic 7-wicket win over Pakistan in the 2023 ICC World Cup with an impressive half-century. As he belted a boundary to complete his fifty, he etched another remarkable moment in the history of cricket. The victory marks India’s 8th World Cup win against Pakistan.
The spectating crowds erupted in joy as India surpassed Pakistan's score. Rohit Sharma missed out on what looked like a certain century as Pakistan paceman Shaheen Afridi took him out at 85, smearing a faint glimmer of hope for the rival team. Regardless, Sharma's spectacular innings against Pakistan were well appreciated by the audience in Ahmedabad who gave him a standing ovation for his stellar performance. Earlier, Virat Kohli's partnership was abruptly ended by Hasan Ali, leading to Shreyas Iyer stepping to the crease.
Team India started on a promising note with openers Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill showcased their prowess by smashing boundaries with aplomb. Earlier, the match witnessed an exemplary performance from Indian bowlers. They masterfully dominated and disrupted Pakistan's innings, inducing a massive collapse at a mere 192 runs.
Rohit Sharma broke multiple records during his 131-run knock against Afghanistan.

India vs West Indies 1st Test Highlights: Debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal's (171 runs off 387 balls) record-shattering ton and world's number one-ranked Test bowler Ravichandran Ashwin's magic (5/60 in 1st innings, 7/71 in 2nd innings) helped Rohit Sharma-led team India crush West Indies by an innings and 141 runs to win the 1st Test inside just three days at Dominica's Windsor Park.

இந்த நிலையில் குஜராத்- சென்னை அணிகள் இடையிலான இறுதி ஆட்டம் நேற்றிரவு அகமதாபாத் மைதானத்தில் நடைபெற்றது. ‘டாஸ்’ வென்ற சென்னை கேப்டன் டோனி, மழைக்குரிய அறிகுறி தென்படுவதால் முதலில் பந்துவீசுவதாக அறிவித்தார். இதன்படி சுப்மன் கில்லும், விக்கெட் கீப்பர் விருத்திமான் சஹாவும் குஜராத் அணியின்ஆட்டத்தை தொடங்கி வைத்தனர். கில் 3 ரன்னில் இருந்த போது வழங்கிய மிக எளிதான கேட்ச் வாய்ப்பை தீபக் சாஹர் கோட்டை விட்டார். இந்த வாய்ப்பை பயன்படுத்தி கொண்ட கில், தேஷ்பாண்டே மற்றும் தீக்ஷனா ஓவர்களில் பவுண்டரி ஓடவிட்டார்.

Chennai: Chief minister MK Stalin on Friday urged companies from Japan, which have so far concentrated on the manufacturing sector, to diversify their investment in Tamil Nadu into industrial infrastructure development and research and development (R&D).
Stalin is in Osaka as part of his two-nation tour of Singapore and Japan to attract more investments to Tamil Nadu and invite leaders of firms for a global investors’ meet in Chennai to be held in January 2024. He arrived in Japan on Thursday night.
In Osaka, Stalin signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Daicel Safety Systems for the expansion of Daicel’s automobile airbag inflator plant in Tamil Nadu’s Chengalpattu district, said a statement from the state government.
On May 24 and 25, he signed six MoUs with Singapore-based companies.
“In the city of Osaka, I’ve highlighted the longstanding ties between Tamil Nadu and Japan and the areas of opportunity to boost them further,” Stalin said.
Later in the day, speaking at the ‘Investors’ First Port of Call’ in Osaka, he recalled his visit to Tokyo in 2008 to seek financial assistance from Japan. “Be it Chennai Metro or the Hogenakkal Combined Water Supply Scheme, Japan has always lent support to Tamil Nadu when we needed them,” the chief minister said. “Economic relations between India and Japan have seen a tremendous swing in recent times. And within India, Tamil Nadu is the leading state for Japanese investments,” Stalin said.
The event was attended by Nikhilesh Chandra Giri, consul-general of India to Osaka, about 80 Japanese companies and the Japan External Trade Organisation (JETRO). Officials of the Tamil Nadu industries department and minister TRB Rajaa spoke to Japanese industry leaders about the southern state’s industrial capabilities, said the statement.
Stalin reiterated that his government has set a target of becoming a one-trillion dollar economy by 2030. As part of the efforts, Stalin said, he is touring Singapore and Japan to bring in more investments in the first phase.

Chennai: Tamil Nadu chief minister M K Stalin in his maiden visit to Singapore signed six memoranda of understanding (MoU) on Wednesday and held discussions with the heads of major financial and industrial institutions.
Stalin left Chennai on Tuesday on a two-nation tour of Singapore and Japan to attract more investments to Tamil Nadu and invite investors for a global investors’ meet in Chennai to be held in January 2024.
The MoUs signed during the ‘Investors’ First Port of Call’ in Singapore include a proposed investment of ₹312 crore by Singapore-based Hi-P International Pvt Ltd in manufacturing of electronic components in Tamil Nadu which is expected to generate 700 jobs. Stalin and minister for industries TRB Rajaa spoke of the conducive environment for investments in Tamil Nadu.
“In order to play a vital role in shaping the economy of India, we in Tamil Nadu, have set ourselves the target of becoming One Trillion Dollar Economy by the year 2030. We are taking all efforts to achieve our target,” Stalin said at the event. “On this occasion, I appeal to you to invest on a large scale in Tamil Nadu which will be mutually beneficial to both Tamil Nadu and Singapore.”
Earlier in the day, Stalin held talks with Dilhan Pillay Sandrasegara, executive director and CEO of Temasek, Kim Yin Wong of Sembcorp, and Sanjeev Dasgupta of CapitaLand. They reaffirmed the long-standing relations between Tamil Nadu and Singapore, Stalin said in a statement. These companies and more have expressed their interest in investing in Tamil Nadu and they explored the possibilities of expanding the existing investments in renewable energy, industrial parks and logistics to new areas including food processing and fishing, he added.
Temasek has an existing investment in the wind power sector in Tamil Nadu and Stalin invited the company to expand its footprint in the state. “The chief minister told Wong of Sembcorp that the government of India has simplified the regulations regarding pumped hydro storage projects and urged the company, operating in the renewable energy sector, to explore the PPP model to implement initiatives in our state,” said a statement from the government. Stalin said that officials from CapitaLand were keen to contribute towards research and development (R&D) facilities in Tamil Nadu.
Earlier, the chief minister also met Singapore’s transport minister S Iswaran, who is also in-charge of trade relations, and discussed improving economic and bilateral ties between the two countries.
Lee Kuan Yew Statue in TN
Later, while attending a Tamil cultural event, Stalin announced that a monument will be established for the late Lee Kuan Yew (LKY), Singapore’s first prime minister, considered the founding father of the country. “For Tamil to be long standing in Singapore, its first prime minister Lee Kuan Yew was the main reason,” Stalin said. “A library in Lee Kuan Yew’s name and a statue will be established in Mannargudi.”
Singapore has a massive Tamil diaspora with a majority hailing from Mannargudi and Pattukottai. The Dravidian rule supports Tamils across the world, Stalin said. “Religion and caste cannot split Tamilians.”

சென்னை: இது எனது பிறந்தநாள் விழா பொதுக்கூட்ட மேடை அல்ல. இந்திய அரசியலுக்கான புதிய தொடக்க விழா என முதலமைச்சர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலின் தெரிவித்துள்ளார். முதல்வர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலின் பிறந்தநாளை தமிழகம் முழுவதும் திமுக தொண்டர்கள் கோலாகலமாக கொண்டாடி வருகின்றனர். அந்த வகையில் சென்னை நந்தனம் ஒய்.எம்.சி.ஏ. மைதானத்தில் முதல்வர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலினின் 70வது பிறந்தநாள் விழா பிரமாண்ட பொதுக்கூட்டம் தொடங்கி நடைபெற்று வருகிறது. பொதுக்கூட்டத்தில் உரையாற்றிய முதல்வர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலின்; மு.க.ஸ்டாலின் எனும் நான் நாட்டுக்கு தொண்டனாக இருப்பேன், மக்களுக்காக கவலைப்படக்கூடிய தலைவனாக இருப்பேன். ஸ்டாலின் என்பது நான் மட்டும் அல்ல; ஒட்டுமொத்த தமிழ்நாட்டு மக்களும் அந்தப் பெயருக்குள் உள்ளனர்.
எதையெல்லாம் சாதிக்க முடியாது என்று கூறினார்களோ, அதையெல்லாம் சாதிக்க முடியும் என்று கூறியவர் அண்ணா. மக்களின் கவலைகளை தீர்க்கும் தலைவனாக இருப்பேன் என உறுதி பூண்டுள்ளேன். அண்ணாவை போல் பேச தெரியாது, கலைஞரை போல் எழுதத் தெரியாது, ஆனால் அவர்களைப் போல் உழைக்கத் தெரியும். பொது வாழ்க்கை இப்படித்தான் இருக்குமென, வசந்த மாளிகைக்கு அனுப்பி வைப்பது போல சிறைக்கு அனுப்பி வைத்தார் கலைஞர். மார்ச் 1 பிறந்த நாள் என்று கூறும்போதுதான் எனக்கு என் வயதே நியாபகம் வரும். எனக்கு 70 வயது என்று சொல்லும் போது சிலர் ஆச்சரியப்படுகிறார்கள்.
என் வயதை கூகுளில் பார்த்த பிறகே ராகுல் காந்தி நம்பினார். 70 வயது ஆகிவிட்டதை என்னால் நம்ப முடியவில்லை; மக்களுக்காக போராடும் நமக்கு கால நேரம் கிடையாது. எல்லாம் நேற்று நடந்தது போல் தோன்றும்; ஆனால் என்னுடைய பயணம் நெடிய பயணம். திமுகவை நிரந்தரமாக ஆட்சிப் பொறுப்பில் வைத்திருப்பேன். நான் முதலமைச்சராக இருக்க வேண்டும் என்பதற்காக இதைச் சொல்லவில்லை: கொள்கையை பரப்ப கட்சி, கொள்கையை நிறைவேற்ற ஆட்சி, இந்த இரண்டின் வழியாக தமிழ்நாட்டை தலைநிமிர வைப்போம். தேர்தல் அறிக்கையில் வழங்கிய 505 வாக்குறுதிகளில் 85% நிறைவேற்றியுள்ளோம்; எஞ்சிய வாக்குறுதிகள் ஓராண்டில் நிறைவேற்றப்படும்.
மகாபாரத்தில் சூதாட்டம் இருக்கிறது என்பதால் தடை செய்ய மறுக்கிறார்களா? என கேள்வி எழுப்பினார். தொடர்ந்து பேசிய முதல்வர்; எனது பிறந்தநாள் விழா பொதுக்கூட்ட மேடை அல்ல, இந்திய அரசியலுக்கான புதிய தொடக்க விழா. 2024 நாடாளுமன்றத் தேர்தலில் யார் ஆட்சி அமைக்க வேண்டும் என்பதை விட யார் ஆட்சி அமைக்கக் கூடாது என்பதே முக்கியம். பாஜகவை எதிர்க்க அனைத்துக் கட்சிகளும் ஒன்றிணைந்து ஓரணியில் நிற்க வேண்டும். காங்கிரஸ் அல்லாத கூட்டணிக்கு அழைப்பு விடுக்கும் வாதங்களை நிராகரிக்க வேண்டும் இவ்வாறு கூறினார்.

தமிழ்நாடு எப்போது முன்னோடியான மாநிலம், சிறந்த தலைவர்கள், அதிகாரிகள், எழுத்தாளர்களை உருவாக்கிய மாநிலம். தமிழ்நாடு தான் கட்டாய கல்வியை முதலில் கொண்டு வந்தது. சமூகநீதியை காப்பதில் காங்கிரசும் திமுகவும் இணைந்து செயல்படும். முதலமைச்சர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலின் தொடங்கி வைத்த இந்திய ஒற்றுமை பயணம் மாபெரும் வெற்றி பெற்றது. ராகுல் காந்தியின் இந்திய ஒற்றுமை பயணத்தை காஷ்மீரில் ஃபரூக் அப்துல்லா முடித்து வைத்தார். எதிர்க்கட்சிகள் ஆளும் அனைத்து மாநிலங்களிலும் ஆளுநர்களின் அத்துமீறல் தொடர்கிறது.
பிரிவினை சக்திகளுக்கு எதிரான போராட்டத்தில் அனைத்து எதிர்க்கட்சிகளும் ஒன்றிணைய வேண்டும். நீதித்துறையை எப்படியாவது தங்களின் கைக்குள் கொண்டுவர வேண்டும் என்று பாஜக துடிக்கிறது. அரசியல் சட்டத்தை பாதுகாக்கும் போராட்டத்துக்கு ஸ்டாலின் தலைமை தாங்குவார். திமுக, காங்கிரஸ் கூட்டணி தொடர்ந்து 2024 தேர்தலிலும் மிகப்பெரிய வெற்றி பெறும். பாஜக அரசின் கொள்கைகளால் 23 கோடி பேர் வறுமைக் கோட்டுக்கு கீழ் தள்ளப்பட்டுள்ளனர். பாஜக ஆட்சியில் இளைஞர்கள் வேலை கிடைக்காமல் தவித்துக் கொண்டிருக்கின்றனர் இவ்வாறு கூறினார்.

T20 World Cup 2022
India batters flex muscle while bowlers show discipline in comfortable win
India beat Netherlands by 56 runs in their second appearance of this T20 World Cup at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Thursday.
Ace Indian batsman Virat Kohli played one of the best and memorable innings in the history of T20 World Cup. With an unbeaten knock of 82, the stylish batsman powered India to a thrilling win over arch-rival Pakistan.
Although India seemed to have lost the game after the initial loss of wickets, Virat Kohli’s amazing knocks and sixes ensured the victorious win. India were in trouble but Kohli played an anchor role and changed the game. He took on the mantle of hitting the big ones, and in the end, it was his class that helped India triumph over Pakistan.

மக்களை கவரும் கலைஞர் சிலை
16 அடி உயரத்தில் நிறுவப்பட்டுள்ள கலைஞரின் சிலை, திருவள்ளூர் மாவட்டம் மீஞ்சூர் புதுப்பேடு பகுதியில் தத்ரூபமாக தயாரிக்கப்பட்டது ஆகும். இந்த சிலை அண்ணாசாலை வழியாக செல்வோரை கவர்ந்து இழுக்கும் வகையில் அமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. கலைஞர் முதல்வராக இருந்தபோதுதான், ஓமந்தூரார் அரசினர் தோட்ட வளாகத்தில் புதிய தலைமை செயலகம் கட்டப்பட்டது. கலைஞர் தினசரி சென்று பார்த்து பார்த்து கட்டிய அழகான கட்டிடத்தை, அதிமுக ஆட்சியில் மருத்துவமனையாக ஜெயலலிதா மாற்றினார்.
மேலும், அந்த வளாகமும் பராமரிப்பு இல்லாமல் காட்சி அளித்தது. தற்போது, முதல்வராக மு.க.ஸ்டாலின் பொறுப்பேற்றதும், கலைஞரின் சிலையை அந்த வளாகத்தில் வைக்க ஏற்பாடு செய்துள்ளதுடன், அந்த வளாகத்தை சுற்றியுள்ள பூங்காக்களும் புதுப்பொலிவுடன் காட்சி அளிக்கிறது. இதன்மூலம் சென்னை மக்கள் மற்றும் சென்னைக்கு சுற்றுலா வருபவர்கள் கூட கலைஞர் சிலையை பார்த்து செல்லும் ஆர்வத்தை தூண்டும் என்பதில் சந்தேகம் இல்லை.

தமிழ் மொழியை அலுவல் மொழியாகவும், உயர்நீதிமன்றத்தில் வழக்காடு மொழியாக அறிவிக்க வேண்டும்: முதல்வர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலின் பேச்சு
சென்னை: திமுக ஆட்சி பொறுப்பேற்ற பின் பிரதமர் மோடி முதல்முறையாக பங்கேற்றுள்ள அரசு நிகழ்ச்சி இது. மற்ற மாநிலங்களின் வளர்ச்சியை விட தமிழ்நாட்டின் வளர்ச்சி தனித்துவமிக்கது. கல்வி, பொருளாதாரம், மருத்துவம் உட்பட பல்வேறு துறைகளிலும் தமிழ்நாடு சிறப்பாக விளங்குகிறது. சமூகநிதி, சமத்துவம், பெண்கள் முன்னேற்றம் ஆகிய அம்சங்களை உள்ளடக்கியது தமிழ்நாடு. அனைத்தையும் உள்ளடக்கிய வளர்ச்சியையே திராவிட மாடல் என்று கூறுகிறோம் என முதல்வர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலின் கூறினார்.
ஒன்றிய அரசும், மாநில அரசும் இணைந்து செயல்படுத்தும் திட்டங்களில் மாநில அரசின் பங்கும் மகத்தானது. எடுத்து காட்டாக நெடுஞ்சாலை துறையில் நமது நாட்டிலேயே அதிக மூலதன செலவை மேற்கொள்ள கூடிய மாநிலங்களில் ஒன்றாக தமிழ்நாடு தொடர்ந்து விளங்கி வருகிறது.
தேசிய நெடுஞ்சாலைகளுக்காக தமிழ்நாட்டில் தற்போது ரூ.44,762 கோடியில் திட்டங்கள் செயல்படுத்தப்படும் நிலையில், மாநில நெடுஞ்சாலைதுறைக்கு இந்த ஆண்டில் மட்டும் தமிழ்நாடு அரசு ரூ.18,218.91 கோடி ஒதுக்கீடு செய்துள்ளது. சாலை கட்டமைப்பில் ஒன்றிய அரசுடன் இணைந்து பணியாற்ற தமிழ்நாடு அரசு முனைப்புடன் உள்ளது. அதிக அளவிலான திட்டங்களை தமிழ்நாட்டில் செயல்படுத்தவேண்டும் என முதல்வர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலின் கூறியுள்ளார்.
ஒன்றிய, மாநில அரசுகள் இணைந்து செயற்படுத்தும் திட்டங்களில் ஆரம்ப காலத்தில் அதிக தொகையை ஒன்றிய அரசு ஒதுக்கீடு செய்தாலும் காலப்போக்கில் ஒன்றிய அரசின் நிதி பங்களிப்பை கொள்வதால், மாநில நிதிச்சுமை அதிகரிக்கிறது. இதனால் ஒன்றிய, மாநில அரசுகள் இணைந்து செயற்படுத்தும் திட்டங்களில் தொடக்கத்தில் குறிப்பிடக்கூடிய ஒன்றிய அரசின் பங்கானது திட்டம் முடியும் வரை தொடரவேண்டும் என முதல்வர் கேட்டுக்கொண்டார்.
தமிழ்நாட்டின் கடலோர மீனவ சமுதாய மக்களின் முக்கிய பிரச்சனைக்கு தீர்வு காண கூடிய வகையில் 'கட்சத்தீவை' மீட்டெடுத்து, தமிழக மீனவ மக்களின் மீன்பிடி பகுதிகளில் அவர்களின் உரிமையை நிலைநாட்ட உரிய நடவடிக்கை இதுவே சரியான தருணம் என முதல்வர் கூறினார்.
ஒன்றிய அரசின் வருவாயில் தமிழ்நாட்டுக்கு 1.21% மட்டும்; இந்தியாவின் மொத்த உற்பத்தியில் தமிழ்நாட்டின் பங்கு 6% ஆகும். தமிழ்நாட்டுக்கு வழங்க வேண்டிய ஜி.எஸ்.டி. நிலுவைத்தொகை ரூ.14,006 கோடியை விரைந்து வழங்க வேண்டும் என முதல்வர் வலியுறுத்தினார். பல்வேறு மாநிலங்களின் வருவாய் சீரடையாத நிலையில் ஜி.எஸ்.டி. இழப்பீடு காலத்தை ஜூன் 2022 பின்னரும் 2 ஆண்டுகளுக்கு நீட்டிக்க கோரினார்.
தமிழ் மொழியை ஹிந்திக்கு இணையான அலுவல் மொழியாகவும், உயர்நீதிமன்றத்தில் வழக்காடு மொழியாக அறிவிக்க வேண்டும் என முதல்வர் வலியுறுத்தினார். மேலும் மருத்துவ மாணவர் சேர்க்கைக்கு கொண்டுவரப்பட்டுள்ள தேசிய தகுதி நீட் நுழைவு தேர்வை தமிழ்நாடு அரசு தொடர்ந்து எதிர்த்து வருகிறது. இது குறித்து சட்டம் நிறைவேற்றப்பட்டு மாண்புமிகு ஆளுநர் ஒப்புதலுடன் அனுப்பிவைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. இதற்கான அனுமதியை பிரதமர் விரைந்து வழங்குமாறு முதல்வர் மு.க.ஸ்டாலின் கேட்டுக்கொண்டார். நவீன தமிழ்நாட்டின் தந்தை கலைஞர் சொன்னதுபோல 'உறவுக்கு கைகொடுப்போம்; உரிமைக்கு குரல் கொடுப்போம்’ என முதல்வர் உரையில் கூறினார்.
சென்னை: நேரு விளையாட்டு அரங்கத்தில் நடைபெற்ற விழாவில் பங்கேற்ற பிரதமர் மோடி வணக்கம் என தமிழில் கூறி உரையை தொடங்கினார். தமிழ்நாடும், தமிழ்நாட்டின் கலாசாரமும், மக்களும் சிறப்பு வாய்ந்தவை என கூறினார். தமிழ் மொழி நிலையானது, தமிழ் கலாசாரம் உலகளாவியது. செந்தமிழ் நாடெனும் போதினிலே இன்பத் தேன் வந்து பாயுது காதினிலே என்ற பாடலை மேற்கொள் காட்டி பேசினார். ஒவ்வொரு துறையிலும் தமிழ்நாட்டைச் சேர்ந்தவர்கள் தலைச் சிறந்தவர்களாக உள்ளனர். செவித்திறன் குறைவுறறோருக்கான ஒலிம்பிக் போட்டியில் தமிழகத்தைச் சேர்ந்த 6 பேர் சாதனை படைத்துள்ளனர். செவித்திறன் குறைவுறறோருக்கான ஒலிம்பிக் போட்டியில் தமிழக மாணவி சாதானைப் படைத்துள்ளார். தமிழகத்தின் பாரம்பரிய உடையில் கேன்ஸ் திரைப்பட விழாவில் சிவப்பு கம்பளத்தில் நடந்தார் அமைச்சர் எல்.முருகன்.
தமிழ்நாட்டில் ரூ.31,000 கோடியிலான திட்டங்கள் செயல்படுத்தப்படவுள்ளன. பெங்களூரு - சென்னை விரைவுச் சாலை திட்டம் இரு முக்கிய நகரங்களை இணைக்கிறது. சாலைத்திட்டங்கள் பொருளாதார வளர்ச்சியோடு நேரடி தொடர்புடையவை. மதுரை-தேனி அகல ரயில்பாதை திட்டம் விவசாயிகளுக்கு பெரும் உதவியாக இருக்கும். எதிர்கால தேவையை நோக்கமாகக் கொண்டு நவீன திட்டங்கள் தீட்டப்படுகின்றன. கலங்கரை விளக்கம் திட்டத்தின் கீழ் வீடுகள் பெற்ற அனைவருக்கும் வாழத்துக்கள். சூழலுக்கு இசைவான இல்லங்களை உருவாக்குவதில் உலக அளவிலாள சவாலை எதிர்க்கொண்டு வெற்றி பெற்றுள்ளோம்.
சென்னை - கனடா, மதுரை-மலேசியா, நாமக்கல் -நியூயார்க், சேலம் - தென் ஆப்பிரிக்கா வரை தமிழ் கலாசாரம் உள்ளது. சென்னையை போன்று இந்தியாவில் பிற இடங்களிலும் சரக்கு முனையம் கட்டப்படும். எரிவாயு குழாய் திட்டம் தொலைநோக்கு பார்வையுடன் செய்ல்படுத்தப்படுகிறது. இங்குள்ள அனைவரும் உங்கள் குழந்தைகள் சிறந்த எதிர்காலத்தை அளிக்க விரும்புகிறீர்கள். தலைசிறந்த உட்கட்டமைப்பு வசதிகளால் மட்டுமே எதிர்காலத்தை அளிக்க முடியும். ஏழைகளின் நலனை உறுதி செய்தற்காகவே அனைத்து உட்கட்டமைப்பு துறைகளிலும் திட்டங்களை நிறைவேற்றுகிறோம். திட்டங்கள் அனைவரையும் சென்று சேரும் வகையில் செயல்பட்டு வருகிறோம். அதிவேக இணைய சேவை, எரிவாயு வழித்தடம், சாலை கட்டமைப்பு என புதிய பாதைகளில் வளர்ச்சிக்காக பயணிக்கிறோம்.

Dear MS Dhoni, we want you..: Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin sends special message to CSK skipper
Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin had a special message for Chennai Super Kings captain MS Dhoni
The Tamil Nadu CM made the comment during CSK's title celebration on Saturday
CSK won the IPL title for the fourth time in 2021
· Tamil Nadu Chief Minister (CM) MK Stalin won the hearts of Chennai Super Kings (CSK) fans on Saturday with a special message to Mahendra Singh Dhoni. He was a guest during CSK's Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 title celebrations.
· The event was delayed because of MS Dhoni's involvement with the Indian team at the 2021 T20 World Cup as a 'mentor.' The global T20 event had begun just days after the competition of the 2021 IPL season.
· CSK won the IPL 2021 title after defeating Kolkata Knight Riders in the final at the Dubai International Stadium last month. This was the fourth time CSK won the IPL trophy making them the second most successful side in the history of the competition.
· Speaking at the ceremony, MS Stalin said, "Dear MS Dhoni, we want you to lead Chennai Super Kings for many many seasons". He added, "MS Dhoni, you are from Jharkhand but for us, Tamil Nadu people, you are one among us".
· In some good news for CSK fans, MS Dhoni gave a subtle hint at his intention to play the 2022 IPL season amid speculation that he will retire from all forms of the game. The former Indian captain said, "Hopefully, my last T20 will be in Chennai."
·
· MK Stalin reveals he is a big fan of MS Dhoni
We want Dhoni to play for CSK for many more seasons, says Tamil Nadu CM Stalin
Chennai:
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin today said he wishes to see MS Dhoni play for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) for more seasons.
"Although N Srinivasan called me as the Chief Minister, I came as a fan of Dhoni and even my father Karunanidhi was a fan of Dhoni. His state is Jharkhand but he is now like a loveable boy of Tamil Nadu. He is always cool and knows how to deal with difficult times," said the Chief Minister during an event in Chennai.
"He is a great captain and good at leading the team. I hereby congratulate him and the entire franchise of CSK on winning this year''s IPL. We really wish to see Dhoni playing for CSK for many more seasons."
Earlier, after winning the IPL 2021, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper MS Dhoni remained tight-lipped regarding his participation in the next year's edition of the tournament.
For IPL 2022, two new teams will be coming in -- Ahmedabad and Lucknow. However, Mr Dhoni also pointed out that he still has not left behind his legacy, hinting that he might just play the next season for CSK.
"Again I've said it before, it depends on BCCI. With two new teams coming in, we have to decide what is good for CSK. It's not about me being there in top-three or four. It's about making a strong core to ensure the franchise doesn't suffer. The core group, we have to have a hard look to see who can contribute for the next 10 years," Mr Dhoni told host broadcaster Star Sports at the post-match presentation.
However, when the broadcaster said, "You can be proud of the legacy you have left behind", Mr Dhoni was quick to respond, saying: "Still I haven't left behind."

Team India's Virat Kohli on Monday hinted at the side's next T20I skipper during the toss in his last match as the captain in the shortest format of the game. Kohli had announced ahead of the tournament that he would be stepping down from the leadership role in T20Is.
While Kohli didn't name the next T20I captain explicitly, the 33-year-old said that Rohit Sharma -- the current vice-captain -- has been "overlooking" the side for some time.
"It's been an honour for me, I was given the opportunity and I tried to do my best. But it's also time to create some space and move forward. I've been immensely proud of how the team has played. Now I think it's time for the next lot to stake this team forward. Obviously Rohit is here and he's overlooking things for a while now," Kohli said during the toss.
Rohit Sharma has been widely touted as Team India's next skipper in the shortest format. While the opener is yet to have an extended run as an international captain, his record as skipper in T20Is is exemplary, having won 15 of the 19 games he led Team India in.
Mr Rahul Dravid appointed as Head Coach - Team India
Dravid was appointed as the head coach last week and will begin his two-year term with the impending home series against New Zealand
Outgoing head coach of the Indian team, Ravi Shastri, hailed the appointment of his replacement, saying that the experienced Rahul Dravid can set a higher bar for this "great team".
I think in Rahul Dravid they've got a guy who has inherited a great team and with his stature and experience it can only raise the bar," he said on Monday ahead of the start of the final Super 12 game of the T20 World Cup between India and Namibia in Dubai. The match is his final assignment as the coach of the Indian team.
Dravid was appointed as the head coach last week by BCCI's cricket advisory committee comprising Sulakshana Naik and RP Singh and will begin his two-year term with the impending home series against New Zealand, starting November 17. India will then travel to South Africa in December end for a full series before returning home to host West Indies, Sri Lanka and the Proteas side.

Profile
Less than thirty years before that enchanting Saturday night when Ravi Shastri’s voice rang through television sets all over India, when even the spunky and exuberant Indian youth showed more interest in an old-school CRT television at a local chai ki dukaan than the dance-floor at a pub, a pump-operator in Ranchi awaited the birth of his third child.
'Dhoniiiii finishes off in style. A magnificent strike into the crowd. India lift the World Cup after 28 years. The party's started in the dressing room. And it’s an Indian captain, who’s been absolutely magnificent, in the night of the final.’
Any cricket fan worth his salt just read this in Ravi Shastri's most dramatic voice, as Mahendra Singh Dhoni enchanted the Wankhede on the night of 2nd April 2011.
The Foundations
Hailing from Jharkhand, Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s rise through the ranks into international cricket is a tale of rebellion, extraordinary merit, perseverance, and, most of all, belief. After being scouted on the whims of his school P.E. teacher as a wicketkeeper, Dhoni created whispers in the cricketing circles of Ranchi - a teenaged boy with no measurable upper-body strength clearing boundaries against some of the best fast bowlers of the district. However, the system failed him as he found it difficult to make the cut against candidates of the more affluent A-tier states. Consequently, in a desperate move, he joined the Railways Ranji team and started to work as a ticket collector at the Kharagpur railway station to make ends meet.
Nevertheless, in a few months, the stars started to align themselves for the precocious wunderkind from Ranchi. Inspired by the KSCA, the BCCI started a country-wide Training Research Development Wing to scout talent from the more financially backward states. Dhoni immediately caught the eyes of the scouts and was sent on an A tour to Kenya, where his talent burst forth for the world to see as he showcased his batting pyrotechnics against world-class bowlers in alien conditions. He immediately shot to national reckoning and was selected for the tour of Bangladesh in November 2004.
By then a broad 22-year-old with long locks, Dhoni’s India career got off to an inauspicious start, as he scored a duck in his first ODI and a string of low scores followed. However, the selectors and the then-captain Sourav Ganguly decided to persist with him and gave him an extended run. Dhoni repaid their faith with an exhibition of his charisma and audacious stroke-play in his fifth ODI against Pakistan, who certainly didn’t see the butchery coming, as he butchered his way to 148 at Vishakhapatnam. Later in 2005, he went one step further bludgeoning his way to a brutal 183* in Jaipur to make a mockery of a 300-run chase against a Sri Lankan attack that looked aghast at his bizarre-but-effective stroke-play and the unparalleled physical power that he imparted on the ball.
Technique
There have always been questions about Dhoni's technique, and how ugly it looks. And the assessment of Dhoni's technique points out one of the major follies in our game - the temptation to judge by aesthetics rather than functionality. Technique is a product of how you get something done and not a step by step physical procedure as to how to do it. The method to achieve the fundamental virtues of the game rely on your abilities and aptitude to execute them in a particular way. Dhoni looks unorthodox at the crease, but he gets back and across. Instead of punching with his fore-arms, he bludgeons it with his wrists, with a low back-lift, ensuring that he plays it late. Most importantly, he has a still head while perceiving the line of the ball and at the point of contact. He also has an open stance allowing him to pull easily by getting to the back-foot early.
And just like that, all the virtues of batting are achieved by him, albeit with a slightly out-of-the-box method.
As teams all over the world tried to work a way around his fireworks, Dhoni established himself as a reliable batsman in Tests too, with a technique that worked against pace, seam, swing and spin. In his 5th Test, he coincidentally scored another 148 against Pakistan in an uncharacteristically stoic effort to save the match, thereby portraying his versatility as a batsman. After a string of wicketkeeper-batsmen being tried in the side, Dhoni had finally become a mainstay in the side - a powerful pinch-hitter towards the end of the innings capable of more than just cameos, and a more-than-reliable wicketkeeper in the side.
In a state where leather ball cricket was a luxury, Dhoni grew up playing tennis ball cricket tournaments. With heavy Kashmir willow bats, light and hollow tennis balls, and long boundaries, he developed a bottomhand-dominated technique to impart maximum power on the light tennis ball which undergoes energy-damping upon impact. However, Dhoni stood out when he, along with a friend, developed an elevated body-weight shot with an exaggerated follow-through that cleared boundaries with ease. On that count, cricketing folklore will remember MS Dhoni as the man who had the audacity to play the 'helicopter shot' against the leather ball.
Captaincy
With a mature head on his shoulders and an astute and shrewd cricketing mind, Dhoni was recommended by senior players like Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid for captaincy after Rahul Dravid stepped down as skipper.
On his first assignment in the inaugural World T20 in 2007, Dhoni and his young troops romped to the title in a shock victory for the inexperienced Indian side, bringing about the T20 revolution in India. Dhoni's calm and composed leadership was widely lauded in the cricketing fraternity after India brought the trophy home, earning him the label of ‘Captain Cool’. He was soon handed the ODI leadership as a natural move after his World T20 triumph, and after the retirement of Anil Kumble in late 2008, the Test leadership was thrust upon him too.
'India may have gained a great captain, but they’ve lost a fearsome hitter’, remarked Harsha Bhogle after Dhoni was handed the reigns of the side. It was true. MS Dhoni, the powerful biffer of leather who could clear the area code with the willow, had now become a gritty accumulator, who seemed to be playing a lot more responsibly. At first, it did look like India had lost an important asset in Dhoni’s explosive batting. However, over the years, Dhoni delivered performances with his new reserved approach and developed the ability to move in and out of his rampage zone. He had inherited the good qualities of his accomplished seniors in the team - carving his game as per the requirement of the team.
Dhoni had a golden run as captain, with an unbeaten run in Test series since his captaincy debut, leading them to their first stint as the top-ranked Test team in the world. His winning streak included the home series against Australia in 2008, a 1-0 triumph in New Zealand in 2009, and a 2-0 victory against Sri Lanka at home, culminating in a comprehensive win at the Brabourne stadium, Mumbai, where he received the coveted Test Championship mace. India continued to dominate in home Tests after this and drew a series in South Africa, coming very close to their maiden series win in South Africa in the decider in Cape Town, where some stoic resistance by the hosts narrowly saved them from the a defeat at the hands of a rampaging Indian side in top form.
Dhoni continued to garner praise for his success across formats; especially for his clinical success in limited-overs cricket, reaching the pinnacle of his captaincy career during India's path to glory in the 2011 World Cup. Dhoni’s India knocked out Australia, the holders of the World Cup since 1999, in the quarter-final in Ahmedabad. Having gone through a patch of lackluster form throughout the tournament, Dhoni peaked at the right time, exhibiting his usual sangfroid on the way to 91* in the World Cup final against Sri Lanka, and lofted an iconic six over long-on, triggering night-long celebrations all over Mumbai and the rest of India.
Transition Period - A rebuilding phase
After the World Cup, the Indian team saw a difficult transition period. Dhoni's shrewd captaincy came under severe scrutiny during the 8 successive losses in England and Australia. In the aftermath of the overseas failures, which included England toppling them over as the number 1 Test side in the world, a fatigued Indian side faced a 1-2 drubbing against England at home as India's Test team hit rockbottom. The team's abysmal performances in the longer format raised serious questions about Dhoni's leadership and a whisper of his sacking; a somewhat misplaced and impulsive proposition, given the poor overall performance of the entire team, their inept technique against spin (which is their forte), an overflowing timetable, and a plethora of viable explanations.
However, the transition phase in Indian cricket saw the famed batting line-up failing to meet their lofty standards, and a rather raw bowling fast-bowling line-up with negligible experience struggling, as Zaheer Khan suffering from a long-term injury.
There was only so much Dhoni could do...
However, after taking some tough selection calls, Dhoni led the way in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy with a marathon 224 in Chennai, setting the platform for a clean-sweep of Australia at home, clinically blanking them to regain the trophy. India became the first team in more than 40 years to whitewash Australia in a Test series and Dhoni now had the most Test wins for an Indian captain under his belt.
India's poor Test form had unfortunately seeped into the ODI fold as well. However, Dhoni developed an uncanny ability to play a symbolic game of poker during run-chases, and backing himself to finish it off in the last over without blinking. He repeated this feat multiple times: whacking a 112-meter six to clear the Adelaide boundary with 12 to win off 4 in the CB series, chasing down 15 in the last over in the Celkon Cup final to name a few, and a ridiculous 23 off the last over in a run-chase off Axar Patel to win a dead-rubber in IPL 2016; with the equation at 12 to win from 2, he dropped jaws by clouting two sixes to pull off a scarcely believable victory.
He had started to build a reputation of being one of the most reliable batsmen limited-overs cricket, taking India to victory constantly from the jaws of defeat. For instance, his century batting at No.7 against Pakistan at Chennai, a stunning 113 walking into the crease when India were 29 for 5, was a knock that symbolized the leader MS Dhoni who led by example, as well as exhibited sharp tactical nous: a much sought-after combination in a captain.
The Redemption
After rebuilding the ODI side and phasing out the seniors, Dhoni had a fine run as captain in 2013, leading India to their second Champions Trophy triumph as they cruised to the title undefeated, providing a welcome distraction from the IPL spot-fixing controversy. This made him the first captain in history to win all three ICC global trophies, etching his name in the history books with an unprecedented record and an enviable trophy cabinet as a limited-overs captain.
He led the side to the final of the 2014 World T20 in Bangladesh, in which India lost to Sri Lanka in the final, and the semi-final of the World T20 in 2016 in India. Dhoni also is the captain of Chennai franchise, one of the most successful teams in the history of Indian Premier League, which won back-to-back titles in the years 2010 and 2011 and also the Champions League T20 in the years 2010 and 2014.
Dhoni's Test captaincy came under severe criticism, especially after India's continuous losses overseas. Despite a Lord’s victory on a green-top in 2014, India went on to lose the three subsequent Tests in England in 2014, where Dhoni made some lone contributions, including a dogged 82 in a total of 148 and a few other fifties. He countered the seam movement and swing by playing late and walking down the pitch, showing greater application than the rest of his line-up with more orthodox techniques. Despite not having the often-talked-about hundred in overseas conditions, Dhoni has made several valuable contributions in the lower-order which have immeasurable value in the context of the game.
The beginning of the end
In the away Border-Gavaskar trophy in 2014, moments after helping India draw the Boxing Day Test at Melbourne, Dhoni announced that he was stepping down from Test captaincy and retiring from Test cricket, citing excessive workload as the reason for quitting the longest format. After honing a potent bowling attack and a gritty batting line-up for his heir, and taking several body blows - literal and metaphorical - Dhoni ensured that he copped the criticism to nurture a potent team and left his successor a young, zealous team with the tenacity, fitness, and most importantly, the positive attitude to perform in all conditions.
Dhoni successfully led India to the 2015 World Cup semi-final, where the defending champions conceded cricket’s most desirable trophy to Australia. Here too, Dhoni was the lone-warrior, as he gritted his way through to 65, as his team fell short by 95 runs.
On 4th January, 2017 Dhoni stepped down as the captain of the Indian ODI and T20I team, bringing about the end of an era in Indian cricket. Having led the team with zeal and panache across all formats of the game for more than nine years, Dhoni decided to play with the freedom of a pure batsman in his final lap of international cricket without the enormous burden of captaincy. Dhoni, who had made the world believe that the batsman held the upper-hand if there were 20 required off the last over, had switched to a sheet anchor mode with younger pinch-hitters batting around him, once again, proving to be a benchmark of versatility in the Indian team.
In 2018, with the top order of the Indian team in turbo-mode, MS Dhoni had fewer opportunities to bat and went through an alarming dip in form - the likes of which hadn't been seen since the early days of his international career. With a revised technique and a far more top-handed batting style, Dhoni reinforced his game to suit his waning reactions and wrist strength and continued to be a part of the Indian middle order, guiding younger bowlers, almost handholding the spinners in limited-overs cricket and creating dismissals out of thin air with his lightning-quick stumpings, and almost reinventing the art of wicketkeeping to spinners by eliminating the followthrough at the point of connection.
While his chicanery behind the stumps, and the tactical nous to assist the newer leaders may have been priceless for the team, the lack of runs and the declining strike-rate were starting to stand out, leading to his exclusion from T20Is in late 2018. Despite a fantastic IPL 2018, Dhoni has struggled to make his bat do the talking in international cricket of late, as the helicopter stands rusting on the spot it was last seen. After the semifinal heartbreak of the 2019 World Cup, Dhoni did not play an international game for India. On August 15, 2020, just like catches batsmen unaware with his glovework, MS Dhoni surprised the cricketing world by announcing his international retirement through an Instagram post that read, \"Thanks a lot for ur love and support throughout.from 1929 hrs consider me as Retired.\"
The journey started with a run-out and ended with a run-out.
IPL through the years
MS Dhoni and Chennai Super Kings is a great yellove story. Ever since the Indian Premier League idea spread vigorously among the cricketing fraternity, people wondered which team would pouch the then Indian captain. The Super Kings, run by an organisation that knew the nuances of running sports, knew they wanted a strong leader to lay a strong base and they made a grand opening by bagging Dhoni for a whopping 6 Crore, the highest bid back then. The IPL would be born on April 18, 2008 and on June 1, Dhoni was there leading CSK in the final, albeit in a losing cause in a final-ball finish.
The result may not have gone his way, but he made a mark with his captaincy and by finishing as the side's second highest run-getter. CSK were stopped one step before the final in 2009, but a year later, Dhoni made a quirky move against Kieron Pollard in the final against Mumbai Indians by placing a straightish mid-off despite having a long-off to get his hands on the coveted trophy after two failed attempts. With three consistent years, Dhoni ensured the team made a big mark and they were considered the invincibles of the IPL. CSK justified the tag by winning the title in 2011 and came runners up in the following two editions.
Dhoni was the third highest run-getter in 2013, a season where he fought a lone battle against Mumbai in the final. His team team suffered a tough loss in Qualifier 2 against a rampant Kings XI Punjab in 2014, another year where Dhoni scored in excess of 350 runs. 2015 was a black mark in CSK's history as the team was hit by the spot-fixing saga, but Dhoni led the side to the final among the ruckus, before the franchise was slapped with a two-year ban.
The ban meant all the CSK players were to spread and Dhoni moved to the newly formed Rising Pune Supergiant in 2016. He spent a quite year, but was back doing what he does best, leading his side to the final, but yet again, finished runners-up in a heart-breaking loss to the Mumbai Indians in the final.
2018 was a grand re-entry for Dhoni and CSK. The franchise was given an unimaginably rousing welcome by the fans, who even took a train all the way from Chennai to Pune to support the team as the matches had to be moved out of Chennai. Dhoni was back to where he belonged. He looked fresher, fitter and hungrier. With his brilliant power-hitting through the season, he silenced critics who ever questioning his hitting prowess and made a strong statement that he is still well and truly alive for the 2019 World Cup.
Dhoni in a nutshell
Dhoni's rise is a rags-to-riches story and has been a one of phenomenal success, punctuated by the occasional blip in performance. Dhoni is the ideal icon for modern India well. Aggression with decorum, modesty along with stardom, and an apparent happy-go-lucky Midas touch, Dhoni is the perfect blend of a role-model and pin-up star.
It looks like Dhoni took his father’s advice as depicted in his biopic MS Dhoni: the Untold Story - ‘Don't let the success get to your head and keep going.’ A rather simple word of caution, but not necessarily easy to execute. It is all a part of the ‘process’ that Dhoni likes to talk about. The Indian youth has grown to mock the word, but Dhoni has taken victories in his stride along with defeat, and given more importance to evaluation at a micro-level as a tool to pave the way forward, with relative indifference to the results.
While we focused on an A4 sheet, he painted the entire canvas - a virtue that has largely helped shape the legend of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Once a ticket-collector at the Kharagpur Railway Station, Dhoni went on to become the quintessential captain cool, arguably the world’s best finisher, and one of the all-time greats of limited-overs cricket, bringing about a revolution that put the onus on the batsmen to pull off unlikely chases.
Nevertheless, a player of his stature and dedication deserves better than a headline reading 'Security beefed up at MS Dhoni's Ranchi residence as India stare at defeat in the World Cup semi-final at the SCG.’ In contrast to the pop culture reference, perhaps Dhoni was the hero India needed, but didn’t deserve...
World Cup through the years
Mahendra Singh Dhoni - India's quintessential captain cool, and the batsman who had a lot to do with converting the term pinch-hitter to finisher, first played a World Cup in 2007 in tumultuous times under the leadership of Rahul Dravid where India would crash out in the first three games, without any significant contributions from Dhoni himself. In 2011, however, after a revamp in the coaching staff, and with Dhoni's own ascendency to captaincy, India had found a new leader and went into the home World Cup in 2011 as favourites. Dhoni had certainly proved his mettle as a captain, and India stumbled through the league stages in 2011, toppling minnows with ease, and but running the stronger teams close - with a high-scoring tie against England, and a last-over loss to South Africa. However, all that changed in the knockouts, as India kicked out Australia in the quarters, ravaged through arch-rivals Pakistan in the semis, and landed up in the final - however, notably, without any significant contributions from MS Dhoni himself. However, it was in the final, that Dhoni played a knock that he will forever be remembered for - 91* off 79 in a run-chase of 275 against Sri Lanka in a World Cup winning effort from the captain.
He went into the 2015 edition as captain once again, as India entered the tournament on the back of heartbreaking losses in Australia. However, India turned their fortunes around, reaching the semi-finals without a single loss. However, in the penultimate stage, they crashed out against Australia with a 95-run defeat. Dhoni goes into the 2019 World Cup after conceding the captaincy to Virat Kohli in late 2016, but continues to form the backbone of the batting line-up, not to mention, forming the cognitive core of the team's brains. The 2019 World Cup, perceived to be Dhoni's last, didn't really go according to plan although he endured a decent tournament. In the semifinal, he along with Ravindra Jadeja were the only men who showed fight but the finisher wasn't able to finish off the chase.
MS Dhoni - A career in numbers

MS Dhoni has bid adieu to international cricket more than a year since his last assignment in the 2019 World Cup. The wicketkeeper-batsman from Jharkhand enjoyed a remarkable career both behind the wickets and in front and leaves the game as one of the best to ever grace the game, especially in the 50-overs format where he left an indelible legacy both as a player and as a captain.
His career highlights include winning World T20 in 2007, World Cup in 2011, Champions Trophy in 2013 and captaining India when they were the number one ranked side in Test cricket. On a personal capacity, he has won the ICC ODI Player of the Year award multiple times as well as was adjudicated the Man of the Match in the final of the 2011 World Cup. He is India's second most capped player across formats with 535 appearances and is the third most successful wicketkeeper in terms of dismissals (829) behind Mark Boucher and Adam Gilchrist. He stepped down from the Test team during India's tour of Australia in 2014/15.
Career
Here is a look into his ODI career through numbers.
Dhoni entered the Indian cricket scene in the 2004 series in Bangladesh following his rich exploits for India A in Kenya earlier that year. He soon hit the straps with a century in just his fifth ODI - 148 against Pakistan in Vizag in early 2005. He followed it up with the unbeaten 183 against Sri Lanka in Jaipur later that year and consolidated his position in India's middle order.
He forged a successful partnership with the likes of Yuvraj Singh and Suresh Raina in the lower middle order which has been India's soft underbelly up until then. The Yuvraj-Dhoni duo was the backbone of India's middle order on which India achieved huge success in the ODI format in that period where they strung together a record successive 17 successful run-chases. He aggregated 3000+ partnership runs with both Raina (3585) and Yuvraj (3105) at averages of 56.90 and 51.75, respectively. In the first phase of his career, Dhoni fulfilled the role of the power hitter who often provided the impetus to the innings in the final overs.
Dhoni - career in three phases
Following the World T20 win in South Africa in 2007 under his leadership, Dhoni was handed over the reins of the ODI team in late 2007. Dhoni revamped his batting as he changed from a power hitter to a more risk-free consolidator in the middle order. This new batting approach was more effective, had far-reaching effects and kind of established Dhoni's vestige as the doyen of run chases in the 50-over format.
The eight-year period since he took over captaincy till end of the World Cup in 2015, it turned out to be the purple patch of his career which largely defined his legacy in the game. In this period, only four players scored more runs than Dhoni of which three were predominantly top order batsmen - Kumar Sangakkara, Tillakaratne Dilshan and Virat Kohli - while the fourth, AB de Villiers, batted mostly at #4. Dhoni scored more than 5000 runs batting at #5 or lower at a superb average of 53.98.
Along with being one of the best ODI batsmen of the era, he was among the best wicketkeepers in addition to being tactically one of the most astute captains in limited-overs cricket. It was in this period that he led India to its three major series wins - starting off with a tri-series win in Australia in 2008 with a relatively young side followed by India's first World Cup win in 28 years in 2011, and that was followed by a Champions Trophy win in 2013 in the midst of spot-fixing scandal which engulfed Indian cricket around the time.
Most ODI runs between Oct 2007 & Mar 2015
His powers as a finisher in ODIs waned considerably in the period post the World Cup in 2015 as his game was found out, especially A he took considerable time to get his eye in. Flashes of brilliance came in between but that was far too few. In the 88 ODIs in this period he averaged 44.58 at a strike rate of 82.03. What was significant was his dip in numbers in run-chases in this phase - average of 44.16 and a strike rate of 72.20, but India lost 17 of the 34 times he batted in a run-chase in this period. In a way, his final innings of India in the semifinal of World Cup 2019 best exemplified Dhoni's struggles in the last few years of his career.
The master of ODI run chases
Dhoni in his peak was synonymous to the best finisher in ODI cricket. Sachin Tendulkar apart, no other player has been part of more successful run-chases in ODI cricket than Dhoni's 116 appearances. He batted in 75 of those games and remained unbeaten in 47 of those - averaged a barely believable 102.71 in these games. In nine of the 47 innings he remained unbeaten at the end, he sealed the game with a six, the most famous of them being one off Nuwan Kulasekara in the 2011 World Cup final at the Wankhede.
Highest average in successful run-chases (20+ innings)
India lost only 38 of the 153 ODIs when they chased a target under 300 when Dhoni was in the side. In the 108 chases that Dhoni batted when the target was below 300, he averaged 60.48 with 29 scores of 50 or more and remained unbeaten a whopping 46 times.
Dhoni in ODI run chases
There are 35 cricketers who led their country and kept wickets simultaneously in ODI cricket. Dhoni leads the list with 200 such instances with Pakistan's Sarfraz Ahmed at a distant second with 50 matches donning the twin hats. Dhoni scored 6641 runs in these 200 matches with six centuries - 4885 runs more than the second-placed Kumar Sangakkara. Dhoni's average of 53.55 as wicketkeeper-captain is dwarfed only by AB de Villiers' 71.45 but the latter took the dual responsibility in just 30 ODIs - just about a seventh of what Dhoni did.
Indian cricket emerged from a perennial bridesmaid to a world beating unit during Dhoni's career. Having lost 16 of the last 17 completed finals, Dhoni led India to wins in all three major ICC events, Asia Cup as well a tri-series Down Under. As the stats and trophies underline, Dhoni leaves behind a successful legacy as a captain, batsman and wicketkeeper.
Some of the records held by Dhoni in white-ball cricket
1 Dhoni remains the only captain to win all the three ICC trophies - World T20 in South Africa in 2007, World Cup at home in 2011 and Champions Trophy in England in 2013. His 332 matches at the helm across formats happen to be the most by any player. For more numbers about his captaincy, please refer here
444 Dismissals made by Dhoni in ODI cricket - third-most in the history of the format behind Kumar Sangakkara (482) and Adam Gilchrist (472). Dhoni took 321 catches behind the stumps and effected 123 stumpings - the only player to effect more than 100 stumpings in the format.
183 Dhoni's unbeaten 183 against Sri Lanka in Jaipur in 2005 is the highest individual score made by a player designated as a wicketkeeper in ODIs. It remained his career-best in the format and also is the joint second-highest individual score in a run-chase in ODIs.
11 Players scoring more runs in ODI cricket than Dhoni's 10773 runs. 8324 of these runs came batting at number five or below - more than 2000 runs ahead of any other player batting in these positions. He scored seven hundreds batting at number five or below which is the joint most in ODIs alongside Yuvraj Singh and Jos Buttler.
84 Instances of Dhoni remaining unbeaten in ODIs - the most by any player. Of the 84 instances, 50 came in run-chases of which India went on to win 47 with one ending in a tie and two in defeats.
3484 Partnership runs for Dhoni with Raina in ODIs - the most by a pair for the fourth wicket or below in the format. The duo has batted together 71 times for the fourth wicket or below and averaged 57.11 per stand, hitting nine century partnerships.
91 Dismissals by Dhoni in T20 Internationals - the most by a wicketkeeper. He has pouched 57 catches and effected 34 stumpings - both the most by a wicketkeeper in the format.
6 Dhoni led India in all the six World T20s so far held - no other player from a full member team has led their respective side in more than three editions. Dhoni led India to title glory in the inaugural edition in 2007, was runners up to Sri Lanka in 2014 and reached semifinals the last time the event was held in 2016

148 v Pakistan, Vishakapatnam - 2005
It was only Dhoni's fifth innings in international cricket when he slammed an enterprising 123-ball 148 against arch-rivals Pakistan in Vizag. He was in the middle at No. 3 for the first time for India, under pressure to justify his place in the side. Alongside Virender Sehwag, he added 96 in just over 10 overs as India were on course for a massive total. In a wide array of strokes on display in his knock of 15 fours and four sixes, he tore into Pakistan's bowlers, especially once he had reached his century. The otherwise effective Shahid Afridi conceded 80 in nine overs as Dhoni powered India to 359, falling for 148 that came off just 123 for his maiden ODI ton. "The cameras used to pass by me; now they're stopping for me," he had said then. Little did he know that it was just the beginning.
183 v Sri Lanka, Jaipur - 2005
Just months after he plundered Pakistan for his maiden century, Dhoni destroyed Sri Lanka for the highest score by a wicketkeeper in an ODI. His stunning unbeaten 145-ball 183 outshone Kumar Sangakkara's unbeaten 138 in the same game, leading India to a comfortable win by six wickets, chasing 299. It was Dhoni once again in at No. 3 and again, he delivered. He struggled with cramps in the heat of Jaipur, which had him score his last 53 runs with a runner. Beginning with blunting Chaminda Vaas's new-ball threat, he was cautious against Muralitharan's spin before launching an attack once more in the second powerplay. With Dhoni at that stage in his career where he was knocking on the Test team's doors, this knock proved that he could mix brain with brawn, aggression with caution, to perfection to have India come out on top, as they did that day.
91* v Bangladesh, Dhaka - 2007
Once again at No. 3, a spot in the line-up that Dhoni was increasingly making his own as he had shown earlier, he battled through hamstring issues to limp to an unbeaten 91 to take India over the line against Bangladesh in Dhaka. Chasing 251 for a win, Dhoni limped through most of his stay during his 106-ball knock in a rain-shortened match of 47 overs. Wickets around him had India in a spot of bother as they were reduced to 144 for 5. His crucial, unbeaten stand of 107 with Dinesh Karthik (58*) is what saw India through eventually in an unconvincing win. It was an innings much unlike a traditional Dhoni one - he had to work hard for every run scored. He was lucky to have survived a reprieve against a leg-before call early on after having been trapped plumb in front. Despite a cramped hamstring, he battled through in a gritty innings, keeping his calm and carrying on. His knock of an unbeaten 91 comprised of seven fours as he steered India across the line with six balls to spare.
91* v Sri Lanka, Mumbai - World Cup 2011
India were in trouble at 31 for 2 in a chase of 275 for the highest-ever in a World Cup final. With Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag back in the tent, much of the onus lay on Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli. They offered resistance for an 83-run stand, before the latter fell for 35. It was at that moment that MS Dhoni walked out, promoting himself up the order in place of an in-form Yuvraj Singh. Despite being reduced to the ground by a stiff back, under immense pressure of the occasion and expectation, Dhoni stepped up, and how. His highest outing at a World Cup until that point was just 34, but he fixed the statistics with a spectacular 79-ball unbeaten 91 to take India over the line, dispatching Nuwan Kulasekara over the long-on fence for a six to seal the deal in theatrical style and end India's wait of 28 years.
113 v Pakistan, Chennai - 2012
Dhoni found himself under immense pressure in Chennai after India's top-five batsmen were sent back for single-digit scores. Coming in at 29 for 5, Dhoni's role was to build the innings with Suresh Raina and help take India to a defendable score while Junaid Khan and Mohammad Irfan were breathing fire.Dhoni's approach was simple: play with a straight bat and keep the scoreboard ticking without even attempting the big shots because there were no pure batsmen after that pair. His first boundary came only after 78 balls of his stay, which had earned him 34 runs. Chennai's heat was sapping, yet, he stuck it out, even upping the tempo towards the end with ease to surpass 7000 ODI runs, en route a valiant century, that he brought up with a six. In the end, he remained unbeaten on 113 off 125, comprising of seven fours and three sixes, taking India to 227 in 50 overs. However, Nasir Jamshed's unbeaten 101 helped Pakistan chase the total down with just under two overs to spare.
50 v India v Sri Lanka, Adelaide - 2008
In pursuit of a target of 239, India seemed to be in a spot of bother at 35 for 3 and more so at 158 for 5. Enter Dhoni. The Indian captain and Irfan Pathan harried between the wickets to keep the scorecard ticking over. There was that occasional top edge from Pathan as the tension mounted. The pair brought the equation down to 28 off 24 when the all-rounder was castled by Ishara Amerasinghe. Praveen Kumar didn't last long either, top-edging Amerasinghe to Mahela Jayawardene. At that crucial stage, Dhoni and Harbhajan joined forces and looked set to take India past the finishing line but Malinga trapped the latter with a searing yorker that tailed in late and India were nine down. However, Dhoni, eventually, pinched a couple of runs to clinch a nerve-wracking win in the final over.
58* v Sri Lanka, Adelaide - 2012
February 14, 2012 turned to be a normal day in the office for Dhoni as the veteran played with calmness to steer India to a tie versus Sri Lanka. India required 24 off just two overs. Just in the nick of time, Pathan thwacked a six off Angelo Mathews to keep India in the game. Dhoni followed it up by bisecting the gap through deep midwicket with needlepoint perfection. India needed 9 off the final over and there was more drama in the middle when Vinay Kumar was run out off the fifth ball. The equation came down to four off just one ball. And it came down to Malinga versus Dhoni. Two champion cricketers going head-to-head. Dhoni stretched and managed to lift one through covers. It could have even scurried to the boundary hoardings, but the fielder stationed at covers put in a desperate dive as the game ended in a pulsating tie.
45* v Sri Lanka, Port of Spain - 2013
When there is crisis, Dhoni is set to script a heist. It has become synonymous with the folklore of Indian cricket for a period of time. On numerous occasions, the legendary 'keeper-batsman has rescued India from precarious positions. And they needed their lynchpin to do it once more against Sri Lanka in the tri-series final at Port of Spain in 2013. On a typical slow track, India had slid to 145 for 5, while chasing down a target of 202. To make matters worse, Rangana Herath trapped Ravindra Jadeja with the arm ball, while Lasith Malinga bowled a trademark deceptive slow yorker to send Bhuvneshwar Kumar back to the pavilion. Vinay Kumar, too, didn't last long and at 182 for 9, India were in all sorts of trouble. However, Dhoni was still around and India believed. After a couple of nervy moments, it came down to 15 off the final over. The seasoned campaigner opened up by sending a Shaminda Eranga delivery for a six over long off and provided the finishing touches with another glorious shot wide of long off. There was jubilation in the Indian camp and an ecstatic Ishant Sharma also hugged Dhoni. Just that the wicketkeeper-batsman was his usual self - calm and collected.
139 v Australia, Mohali - 2013
With India six down and Virat Kohli back in the hut, the hosts were in deep trouble against Australia in Mohali. Just the kind of precarious situation for Dhoni to play one of those blinders. Ravichandran Ashwin, batting at No. 8, provided the required support as the pair added an invaluable 76-run stand. Once Ashwin was dismissed, Dhoni farmed the strike in his trademark style to pilot India past the 300-run mark. He also lit up the stadium by clobbering James Faulkner for two fours and two sixes in the last over.
134 vs England, Cuttack - 2017
When India were reeling at 25 for 3, with Chris Woakes on fire, Dhoni yet again had to play the saviour. He also had his long time batting partner, Yuvraj Singh at the other end. It was Yuvraj who gave India the impetus by cracking a string of boundaries against Liam Plunkett and Jake Ball. It was in the 14th over when Dhoni tried to press the accelerator pedal with a crunchy cut shot off Ball. Once Yuvraj fell, Dhoni decided to up the ante as India collected a massive 100 runs off the last 42 balls to finish with a monstrous 381. In the final overs, Kedar Jadhav, Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja also joined in the fun, as India smacked a string of boundaries. The highlight of Dhoni's batting in the death overs was the way he charged down the track and swiped Plunkett across the line for an eye-catching six.

Ayodhya bhoomi poojan
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said the bhoomi poojan ceremony was an “emotional moment”
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said the bhoomi poojan ceremony was an “emotional moment”, which has illuminated everyone’s heart in the entire country, after laying the foundation stone for the Ram temple in Ayodhya.
“A long wait has ended today... A grand temple will now be built for our Ram Lalla who had been living under a tent for many years,” the Prime Minister said during foundation stone-laying ceremony of the Ram temple.
“With the construction of this temple, history is not only being made but is also being repeated. The way boatmen and tribals helped Lord Ram, the way children helped Lord Krishna lift Govardhan mountain, similarly, the temple’s construction will be completed with everyone’s efforts,” he added.
Here are the top quotes from his speech at Ram Janmabhoomi site:
A grand temple will now be constructed for our Ramlala, who has been living under sacks and tents for years now
Breaking up and then standing again, Ram Janmabhoomi has been freed from this interference which was on for centuries
* Ram is carved within our minds, he is within us. If we want to do some work, then we look up to Lord Ram for inspiration
Shri Ram’s temple will become the modern symbol of our culture, eternal faith and national spirit. And this temple will also become a symbol of the collective resolve power of crores and crores of people
* The way Dalits, OBCs, tribals, every section of the society supported Gandhiji during the freedom struggle, this pious work of building Ram temple has started with the cooperation of people from all over the country
* There is no aspect of life where our Ram does not inspire us. There is no such feeling of India in which Lord Ram is not seen. Ram is in the faith of India, Rama is in the ideals of India. Rama is in the divinity and philosophy of India
I believe that this grand Ram temple built in Ayodhya, like the name of Shri Ram, will reflect the rich heritage of Indian culture. I believe that the Ram temple to be built here will inspire the entire humanity till eternity
* Ram speaks and thinks in accordance with time, place and circumstances. Ram teaches us to grow with time. Rama is in favour of change and modernity. With these same inspirations, India is moving ahead with Shri Ram’s ideals
* Prabhu Shri Ram has taught us to follow the lessons of duty, how to perform our duties. He has shown us the path of realisation and researches out of opposition. We have to join these bricks of Ram temple with mutual love and brotherhood
Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in the holy city of Ayodhya on Wednesday for the momentous foundation laying ceremony of Ram temple. Dressed in a golden-coloured traditional dhoti kurta, the prime minister’s first stop was the 10th-century Hanuman Garhi temple wherein he offered special prayers.
PM Modi was presented with a headgear, silver ‘mukut’ and a stole by Sri Gaddinsheen Premdas Maharaj, head priest of the ancient Hanuman Garhi Temple.
The prime minister then went on to offer prayers to Ram Lalla and performed ‘sashtang pranam’ at Ram Janmabhoomi.

Good News For Cricket Fans
The eagerly-awaited Indian Premier League (IPL) will start on September 19 in the United Arab Emirates with the final slated on November 8, well-placed BCCI sources told PTI on Thursday.
While the IPL Governing Council will meet next week to chalk out the final details and approve the schedule, it is understood that the BCCI has informally intimated the franchises about the plan.
“IPL in all likelihood will start on September 19 (Saturday) and the final will be held on November 8 (Sunday). It is a 51-day window which will suit the franchises as well as the broadcasters and other stakeholders,” a senior BCCI official told PTI on conditions of anonymity.
The IPL has been made possible by the ICC’s decision to postpone the October-November T20 World Cup in Australia owing to the Covid-19 pandemic due to which the host country expressed its inability to conduct the event.
While there were speculations that IPL will start from September 26, the BCCI decided to advance it by a week in order to ensure that the Indian team’s tour of Australia is not jeopardised.
“The Indian team will have a mandatory quarantine of 14 days as per Australian government rules. A delay would have sent the plans haywire.
“The best part is that 51 days is not at all a curtailed period and there will be much less double headers. We could stick to original five double headers in seven week window,” the official said.
It is expected that with each and every team needing at least a month’s time to train, the franchises will be leaving base by August 20 which gives them exactly four weeks time to prepare.

Steve Smith was the top-scorer with 96 but that was not enough for the visitors. Earlier, Shikhar Dhawan’s superb 96-run innings and impactful half-centuries from KL Rahul and Virat Kohli helped India post a challenging 340 for six. Kohli played a fluent innings before he was again dismissed by Adam Zampa for 78. India looked good for a 350+ total but they lost quick wickets after Kohli’s dismissal. It was then KL Rahul, who took matters in his own hands and smashed 80 off 52 balls to help India to 340.

Rahul Dravid formally inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame
Former India captain Rahul Dravid was today formally inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame.
To mark the occasion, Dravid received his commemorative cap from fellow ICC Cricket Hall of Famer Sunil Gavaskar before the start of the fifth and final ODI between India and the West Indies in Thiruvananthapuram.
Dravid was named in the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame along with Australia men’s legend Ricky Ponting and England women’s stalwart Claire Taylor during the ICC Annual Conference in Dublin in July. However, like Ponting, Dravid was unable to attend the induction ceremony due to a coaching assignment with the India ‘A’ side.
Rahul Dravid receives his ICC Cricket Hall of Famer cap from fellow ICC Cricket Hall of Famer and former India captain Sunil Gavaskar
Dravid, after receiving the cap, said: “I am honoured and delighted to have been formally inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame in front of my home fans. This award gives me the satisfaction that I have been able to contribute to the success of the India cricket team in particular, and cricket in general.
“I am grateful to all my contemporaries, who helped and supported me during my playing days, as well as coaches and officials who guided me on the long journey. I have enjoyed each and every moment of my association with them, as together we not only set big targets but achieved most of them.”
Rahul Dravid poses with his ICC Cricket Hall of Fame cap and Sunil Gavaskar
Dravid is the fifth India cricketer to be formally inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame after Bishen Singh Bedi, Kapil Dev, Sunil Gavaskar and Anil Kumble. Dravid played 164 Tests and 344 ODIs for India from 1996 to 2012, and scored a total of 24,177 runs in the two formats.

Virat Kohli 10,000 Runs in ODI: Virat Kohli became the 13th batsman to reach the elite club of 10,000 ODI runs. He is also the fifth Indian to reach the landmark.
Virat Kohli took just 205 innings to storm into the 10,000-run club in ODIs.

Virat Kohli became only the fourth batsman to score 10,000 ODI runs for India and in the process, he also broke Sachin Tendulkar's record to become the fastest to reach the milestone.
Before the start of the second ODI against West Indies in Vizag, Kohli needed 81 to reach the coveted landmark. After his stroke-filled 140 in the first ODI on Sunday, there was little doubt Kohli would get to 10K on Wednesday.
He got off the mark with a boundary off Kemar Roach, who had just dismissed Rohit Sharma cheaply. Thereafter, Kohli went about building his innings like he has done so often over the last decade.

India vs Australia 2nd ODI: Virat Kohli slams 39th ODI ton, moves to third spot in list of most international centuries
India vs Australia 2nd ODI: Virat Kohli couldn’t take his team home but his effort gave India a chance to make a comeback into the series.
There is something about the Adelaide Oval that brings the best out of Indian captain Virat Kohli. The scene of Kohli’s maiden Test century and several landmark knocks, Kohli was once again peerless as he batted with meticulous attention to detail in another big chase, on his way to bringing up his 39th one-day international century.
Kohli couldn’t take his team home but his effort gave India a chance to make a comeback into the series. The century was also Kohli’s 64th in international cricket, which takes him one ahead of Sri Lanka’s Kumar Sangakkara and into the third spot behind former Australian captain Ricky Ponting (71) and the legendary Sachin Tendulkar (100).
The Indian captain has taken just 360 matches to complete 64 tons and looks well placed to topple Ponting very soon. With this century Kohli is now just 12 centuries shy of Tendulkar’s record of 51 ODI centuries.

Tamil superstar Rajinikanth on Sunday announced that he would float a political party that would practice "spiritual politics" and contest in all of the state's 234 constituencies in the next Assembly polls in 2021.
Announcing his decision at a large gathering at Sri Raghavendra Kalyana Mandapam in Chennai, Rajinikanth said his party will not be contesting in the local body elections as the time for that was less. He also said the decision to contest in the 2019 Parliamentary elections
This announcement ends the long-awaited suspense. Calling his entry as "compulsion of time", he categorically said that he was not entering politics for money or power, but to serve people and revive democratic values.
If I was hungry for power, I would have entered politics in 1996", said Rajinikanth.
Rajinikanth urged his fans not to talk about politics or comment about other parties till his party is floated. He said the first task was to get many of his unregistered fan clubs registered with the parent body.
He said the politics in the country has gone very wrong. We are going to change the system, be transparent, spiritual-politics, said Rajinikanth. He appealed for cooperation and support from his fans.

Indian batsman Shikhar Dhawan plays a shot during the fourth day of third Test match between India and Sri Lanka at the Ferozeshah Kotla Cricket Stadium in New Delhi. Dhawan celebrated his 32nd birthday on December 5, 2017.
Virat Kohli became the third Indian after Sunil Gavaskar and Sachin Tendulkar to cross 1000-run mark in Test cricket in successive years.
Virat Kohli struck his career-best 243 against Sri Lanka in the third and final Test on a day that was marred by poor air quality in Delhi.
Kohli's majestic knock put India in a commanding position on the second day of the Test as the Delhi dasher smacked 25 fours during his marathon 287-ball innings.
In reaching his sixth double century, Kohli overtook Brian Lara as the player to score most double hundreds as Test captain. Lara scored five of his nine career Test double centuries as West Indies captain. Legendary Australian batsman Don Bradman posted 12 double centuries, but only four of those as Test captain.
In the process, Kohli also completed 1000 runs in Test cricket in 2017 becoming the fourth batsman to achieve the feat this year. South Africa's Dean Elgar (1097 runs) was the first while Sri Lankan Dimuth Karunaratne (1018 runs) was second before Cheteshwar Pujara (1091 runs) accomplished the feat in the Nagpur Test.

“I’d love to get married to a celebrity. I rather hang out with a celebrity and then get married to him as we both come from the same fraternity and can talk at ease.”
“This profession seems glamorous because there is a very high level of media exposure. What people fail to acknowledge is the hard work, which goes into each and every fashion show or an ad shoot. Not just by the models but also by the people who work in the background and without them it would be impossible to put up a show.”

Rahul Tripathi’s 93 steers Rising Pune Supergiant to 4-wkt win over Kolkata Knight Riders,
Childhood & Education
Ajith Kumar , aka Ultimate Star was born in Hyderabad, India born May 1, 1971. Ajith is middle son of three children others being Anil Kumar and Anup Kumar, both being software engineers. Ajith was born to a Sindhi mother and Tamil Iyer father was brought up as a Hindu so followed the principle teachings of Hinduism. In his childhood he was brought up in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. Schooling days were numbered for Ajith as he dropped out of Asan Memorial Sr. Secondary School in 1986 to become a part-time two-four wheeler mechanic and a full-time garment exporter based in Erode till 1990. Business agencies pushed him into modelling for adverts in print media. He also took it on realising an income in the job, it eventually paved his way into Tollywood otherwise nown as the Telugu film industry and later into Kollywood.
Early Days in Career
Ajith started his film career at the age of 21 as an actor Telugu movie Prema Pustagam in 1992.. His next film was in Tamil entitled Amaravathi for which he was paid a token salary of Rs.390. His second Tamil film Pavithra was delayed for 17 months because of a racing injury that left him bed-ridden. Both films received appreciation from the Tamil audience. It was his third Tamil film that released 10 months later in 1995, Aasai, directed by Vasanthan and produced by Mani Rathnam which helped to establish his career as a teen icon in Kollywood. Ajith’s first big budget venture Aasai but only after Agathiyan’s Vaanmathi and particularly the National Award winning Kadhal Kottai established him as an accomplished actor in Kollywood. Ajith later played in Amitabh Bachchan’s debut Tamil production in Ullasam. This venture paid him a salary of over Rs.1 million for the first time ever. A string of successful movies followed, most notably Kadhal Mannan and Aval Varuvala and the multiple award winning Vaali which cast him alongside Simran. Vaali saw a new peak in Ajith’s career. He played a dual role in the film as a deaf-and-dumb twin who lusts after his naive brother’s wife.
Marriage & Business Ventures
During the shooting of Amarkalam directed by his freind SARAN , Ajit fell in love with the co actress Shalini,. Shalini is an actress from her childhood days who had almost 97 movies to her kitty. They got married in 2000 in Chennai. As both were of different religions Ajith being a Hindu and Shalini being a Christian, together they were married in the customs of both religions. Ajith – Shalini love and marriage was one of the most talked about news over the period and the star couple are still known for their love and affection for each other.
Post marriage , Ajith set up his own distribution company AK International with office located within the premises of NIC Arts which was run by his friend-producer-distributor S.S.Chakravarthi. This office was shifted in 2006.In 2000, Ajith was cast alongside Mammooty, Abbas, Tabu and Aishwarya Rai in Kandukondain Kandukondain. The film’s audio rights were sold for a record Rs.22 million, which still stands. Mugavari followed as Ajith acted in alongside Jyothika. In 2001, Ajith played the role of Shahrukh Khan’s brother in the historical film Asoka.
The Making of THALA
In 2001, Ajith played a movie called Dheena, directed by debutant director A R Murugadoss,. Dheena was the first ever Action flick he tried and acted alonside with Veteran Actor Suresh Gopi & Actress Laila. This movie had song called “ Vatikuchi pathi kadthu da” during a costar shall say “ THALA Erukkum pothu Vaal ada Kudathu, Nee Adu Thala” .(menaing a co- artist shall not pretend in the presence of a prominent star). This song was extremely popular and since the word Thala( Meaning leader/ the group lead) was catchy and from then on the fans started calling him , THE THALA. This word become so popular that even print and television medias started referring him as THALA and this name has been a house hold referring only AJIT KUMAR. Then Thala acted a lot of action movies like Magnum Opus movie CITIZEN, RED. During this period he was also concentrating in romantic entertainers like Poovellam un VASAM & RAJA.
The King of Opening
He won the South India Filmfare Best Actor Award for Villain, directed by K. S. Ravikumar.Villain, in which he once again donned a dual role, grossed almost Rs.300 million at the box office marking a new office box peak in Ajith’s career. The amount of collections received in the first week of the release for any Ajit started increasing from then . Almost 75% of the revenue expected out of the movie was getting collected in the first ten days itself leaving just 25% Depending on the content of the movie. Inspite of his ups and downs in his career , Ajiths movies were greatly expected by his fans and received a huge collections from the By then the Kollywood trade had unanimously begun calling him the King of Opening and placed him only next to Super star Rajini Kanth in terms of box office collections.
The fall
In 2003 and 2004, Ajith acted in Anjaneya, Jana and Attagasam opposite Meera Jasmine, Sneha and Pooja respectively. Anjaneya created a new record for Telugu rights reported at almost Rs.9 million offered by Dr. Rajasekar while Ajith’s salary reached a peak of almost Rs.50 million for the film but he waived it when the film did not match expectations. Jana too did not perform as expected and Ajith suffered some high profile fracas with its producer. So, he declared an end to motor racing and Attagasam, in which he donned a dual role again, was successful. Attagasam rejained Ajith’s status at the box office after Jana had not done so well, however there were many claims that Ajith did not look like his old self anymore. In 2005, Ajith acted in the film Ji opposite Trisha. Project delays by director Bala and producer Chakravarthi forced him to sit idle for the rest of the year. He thus released only 4 films in the three years from 2003 through 2005.The film did not do well as expected beforehand as the producers had failed to release the film when it was first made. Ajith had reach an all time low in his career and was desperately in need of a hit in early 2006.
The Pheonix rises again
By contrast, in 2006, Ajith acted 3 projects, Paramasivan directed P.Vasu, Thirupathi directed by Perarasu and particularly Varalaru directed by K. S. Ravikumar. This is his comeback movie since Villain. Varalaru emerged as a successful film. In Paramasivan Ajith looked back to his best fatigue again and played a prisoner in jail and a secret agent. Paramasivan gave Ajith the much needed lift to be amongst the bigger heroes of Kollywood. Now he was desperate to continue his form with Thirupathi. Thirupathi saw a brand new Ajith, he played a role the would have normally been played by his peer Vijay. He answered his critics with the movie where he improved his dancing and pronunciation of speech. Thirupathi did well but more importantly got a better actor out of Ajith. Ajith’s final film of the year Varalaru was his biggest hit of his career. He donned a triple role playing a father and two sons. The role got him a Filmfare award for best actor 2007.
Ajith’s first film in 2007 was with the newcomer director Chella entitled Aalwar. Both Varalaru and Aalwar were opposite Asin. Aalwar did not live up the expectations created by the success of Varalaru, as a result it was another major let down for Ajith. After Aalwar, Ajith acted ina remake of a 1989 National Award winning Mohanlal classic, entitled Kireedam opposite Trisha Krishnan. The film was produced by Anil Ambani’s conglomerate Adlabs Films and will mark their entry into Kollywood. Ajith sustained a recurring spinal injury on the sets of the film.Kireedam went on to become a good hit for Ajith and won him many praise and fans for acting in such an emotional and different film. Kireedom also marked a successful entry for ADLABS, a reliance corporate company in Kollywood and lookign at Ajits sincerity , commitment and dedication, Ajith became the first choice of Big corporates in the Cine Industry.

Ranchi: India have turned the match in their favour as Cheteshwar Pujara (202), Wriddhiman Saha (117) and Ravindra Jadeja (54* and 2/6) left Australia reeling at 23/2; trailing India by 129 runs on Day 4 of the third Test here on Sunday.
India, who resumed play at 360 for 6, declared their innings at 603/9 after Pujara’s marathon double hundred and Saha’s 3rd Test ton. The duo stitched 199-run partnership and pulverised the Australian bowlers before Jadeja added salt to Australia’s wounds as India batted for 210 overs, securing 152-run lead.
Australia 23/2 from 7.2 overs:
WICKET AND STUMPS! Jadeja is all over Aussies. Nathan Lyon has no clue what has just happened. The ball turned, beat outside edge of Lyon and thudded onto the stumps in the final over of day's play. Indian team is celebrating, Smith looks concerned in the dressing room as the umpires call it a day.
Australia 17/1 from 5.1 overs:
WICKET! Just the start India want, just the start Australia did not. Ravindra Jadeja disturbs the timber. Warner's horrific run of form in the series continues. The ball has broken through Warner's defence, Jadeja is running wild and did we just see Kohli mocking back at Australia?
India 603/9 from 210 overs:
Declaration! Virat Kohli waves from the dressing room to signal declaration after Ravindra Jadeja scored a quickfire fifty. India have hurt Australia badly by batting for 210 overs and securing 152-run lead. If that's not enough, the Australian openers will have to tackle the tricky period where they will have to bat for 20 minutes or so.

Shikhar Dhawan-Rohit Sharma help India break T20 duck against New Zealand
Ashish Nehra played his final international game for India on Wednesday. Though he could not take any wickets against New Zealand in the first T20 International, it was an emotional farewell for him as he played the game at his home ground Feroz Shah Kotla. After the match, Nehra came for the press conference and talked about retirement, friendships, career and more. Excerpts:
On Retirement: I always felt that no bigger thing than to retire at the venue you want to play your last at. It is definitely a lucky moment. I said at the previous press conference too that people may say you can play for six months or 12 months more but I felt it is better to retire when you’re at the top. It will be 19 years since I made my debut and now I’m retiring at the age of 38-39 years. It is emotional that I will be giving up what I’ve been doing for the past 20 years but there is life after this also. Even the people in the current dressing room know that there is life after cricket also.
On last over: It definitely was an emotional moment. Virat Kohli wanted me to bowl the final over after the 15-16th over. As a cricketer, you shouldn’t say this but by then the game was almost over. Of course miracles do happen but today it seemed like it wasn’t going to happen. So I prepared myself to bowl the final over and it was an emotional moment. I remember bowling my first over from that very end in 1997 against Haryana and Ajay Sharma was the captain standing at mid-off. Don’t know where those 20 years went. Sure there will be regrets but I consider myself to be a very lucky guy to have had a long career despite the number of injuries. The numbers might not reflect that with my last Test coming in 2004 when I was 24-25 years old. The team management wanted me to keep playing cricket such as the Champions Trophy six months back but I pulled my hamstring. For me those 15 people inside the team are most important and if they are saying that they want me to play more, that is most important. Rest will have opinions be it the commentators, the media or the people but for me they are the most important. I’m glad that they value me. Even in Ranchi when they found out I plan to retire, almost 90-95% said they think I can keep playing. They were surprised that I’m retiring even from the IPL. I’m content and a happy guy despite the number of surgeries I went through.
Most memorable moments: Each match is very memorable. Performance wise they are your memories. These could be six wickets against England, final over in Karachi, four-five wickets in Asia Cup and many other final overs. Difficult to narrow it down to one performance, because even if you take three, four, five, six wickets, you might not be content with how you bowled. Or there could be days where you take two wickets and come back happy with how you bowled. I took six wickets against England and we won and then I took six wickets against Sri Lanka in the Indian Oil Cup which we lost. So for me those six wickets don’t matter. If team doesn’t win, your satisfaction personally might be there, but in the end it is a team game.
Sum up your career? I am a simple guy. I am happy where I am today and I’m not someone who believes in stats too much. When you’re young, you think you’re the King of the Jungle and you’re not wrong. But in the last six-seven years, I can say that whenever I’ve come back to the dressing room, I can say that I gave my best. Still there are regrets, there were injuries and that is true for everyone. Even Sachin Tendulkar would have thought that he could have got another 5000 runs. You are never satisfied in chasing your dreams. But at the same time it is important to be realistic. In 2009, MS Dhoni and Gary Kirsten pushed me to play Test cricket but I maintained that let me play 2011 World Cup and then I will decide. Now I can pass on my experience to new fast bowlers that I kept going despite so many injuries. After 2007-08, I put a lot of effort. I have seen a lot of ups and downs. When you’ve seen a lot of success, you don’t know what failure is. Now I have seen everything and I can help others.

In 2009-10, I was doing whatever best I could. You can see all the stats for that also. I am that sort of a person who doesn’t question the team management for their decision. If they don’t pick me, it is entirely their decision. But at the same time, you keep working and after one, two or three years, if you’re good, your chance will come. And you have to be ready for that. For the past two years, I’ve been working hard, doing well and getting this sort of farewell. This is kind of god gifting me for the hard work. As the Hindi saying goes, Kisi ki mehnat kabhi kharab nahi jaati. Kisi na kisi tareeke se aapko result mil hi jaata hain (Your hard work doesn’t go waste. Through some way, you will get the desired result). The regret will be that I could have delivered for the country in those three or four years. I was playing well and I was delivering for the IPL franchise. In domestic cricket I wasn’t playing many four day games so it was difficult to motivate myself and same for One Day and T20s. But whenever I trained, I did it to play for India. So when the chance came, I took it with both hands.
In 2005 or even in 2009-10 I got a chance. It’s not that I wasn’t playing cricket back then. Unfortunately, we only see what is happening with the Indian national team. Say for example Ishant Sharma is not playing. He is playing every day for Delhi. Here only 15 players will play. This team doesn’t include R Ashwin or Ravindra Jadeja also. In all three formats combined, not more than 20-25 players can be included and many are playing in the Ranji Trophy. I personally feel we are more of a star loving country than a sport loving country. Unfortunate to say that we are not like Australia or South Africa. We are not a sport loving country but a star loving country. I would like to see more crowd for Ranji Trophy games. There is a large audience for County games also. The regret for me personally will be the injuries hampered my career. For me it is basically a case of keep trying to play. If you can’t play Tests, try playing ODIs, if not ODIs then T20s. Just keep trying and you will be rewarded.

Cricket is such a game that keeps evolving every few years. Every team undergoes a transition phase as well. When I started playing, from 2001 till 2007-2008, Australia were the team to beat. I remember the 2003 World Cup, I thought I was bowling well but the likes of Matthew Hayden or Ricky Ponting were always a step ahead of you. The same way, the bowlers would think they’re doing well but the likes of Virat Kohli or Rohit Sharma are step ahead of them. Every team has a transition period. It can be seen with Sri Lanka and West Indies. The Windies are not the same as they were in 1983 till 1985. IPL has a big role to play in this in giving confidence to the youngsters. They are now capable of playing at this level and delivering. Now there is a lot of competition. India A makes a lot of tours and the game keeps evolving. Back then India had a good team too. We were good under Gary Kirsten too.
On Selectors: I didn’t have any discussion with the Chairman of selectors (MSK Prasad). As far as the team management is concerned, I told them of my decision in Ranchi. When I spoke with Virat, he asked if I was sure and suggested I keep playing in the IPL. Luckily this game came to Delhi, I didn’t ask for a farewell game, I didn’t speak to the selectors about it. When I started playing, it wasn’t by speaking to any of the selectors or when I’m retiring, it isn’t by telling them either. When I told the team management that Bhuvneshwar Kumar is ready to play. In the last two years, Jasprit Bumrah and I have been playing in tandem, two spinners and the final seamer in Hardik (Pandya). Bhuvi keeps dropping in and out. But after IPL, I personally felt that this is a way forward. I didn’t find it suitable that I play and Bhuvi sits out. I thought if there is a World Cup in five or six months or I had plans to play for a year or two years, then I’ve earned this spot. If someone has earned this spot, then they can take it. You can see my stats for the past two years and I told Kohli, Shastri that it is not that I don’t want to be included in the playing XI. If the team needs me, I am here. Even in Hyderabad (India vs Australia, 3rd T20), I was going to play had it not rained. It was my own decision and for the betterment of Indian cricket and the team. Even today, people wondered whether ‘Ashish Nehra will play or not?’. If I’ve come here, I’ve come to play. I am not here to roam about.
Ashish Nehra has played under Sourav Ganguly, MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli amongst others in his 18-year international career. (Source: Express Archives)
On his Captains: I am someone who doesn’t like comparisons. I have played under Dada (Sourav Ganguly) and everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. I have played under MS Dhoni, now under Virat – who has a long way to go. And then I’ve played for some time under Virender Sehwag also who is a very positive person. He knew how to bring out the best out of people. Then Ganguly could motivate the players very well. He could get a lot out of us youngsters – Me, Zaheer Khan, Yuvraj Singh and Harbhajan Singh. Whenever I’m feeling well physically, I will enjoy – whoever the captain.
Future? I am someone who has always and only done cricket throughout his life. I don’t know what will come next. I haven’t sat down and decide what to do next. Maybe it will be coaching or maybe it will be commentary.
Comeback from injury? My attitude was always that you can never say never. Even in 2009-10, I was the top wicket-taker in the world. But after 2011 World Cup, I suffered a finger injury and was out of action. I knew only one thing to wake up in the morning, go train and play. Even in the summer, sometimes there would be only 20 kids and I would bowl single wicket. It was very simple that I enjoyed cricket and I still do. If you give enough time to the game, you will be rewarded. If you keep giving three hours or so to the game or more, you will be rewarded. Maybe I learnt this lesson late but better late than never.
On friendship with Virender Sehwag? I have had a long relationship with Viru. The times of him picking me up on the scooter will not come back. We used to come for trials for U19 or for Ranji Trophy. He used to drive while going and I would sleep and going back the order would be reversed. Now it is difficult to see such a thing with everyone travelling by luxury buses. Be it cricket or life, things change every decade.
