'It's Great For Cricket, Brings People Back': Phillips On Close Series Opener Vs IND

The T20Is: New Zealand batter Glenn Phillips called the close, high-scoring first T20I against India a fantastic match, which is great for cricket as Hagley Oval in Christchurch saw a run-feast, where India chased down a record 226 with four wickets in hand. Speaking ahead of the second T20I between New Zealand and India at the same venue on Saturday, the New Zealand batter referenced that close games are great and that they help the crowd to return to the stadiums and watch cricket. Yeah, it's fantastic, great for cricket (on close first game). To be able to have a game like that, going 220, playing 220, I think it's great for this crowd. It brings people back, and that's great for the game, he told broadcasters ahead of the second match. The T20Is these days are often played with quick turnaround, as is seen during the New Zealand-India series. The two teams began the five-match series on Thursday and are again playing on Saturday with less than 48 hours of gap between the end of the opener and the start of the second game at the same venue. Phillips, who made an unbeaten 82 from 40 balls in the opener, spoke on the importance of recovery during the short turnaround. Yeah, I think it's about getting rest and recovery in. Obviously it's been fantastic down here in Christchurch, weather-wise. So I think a few of the boys got out there, played some golf, tried to get their mind off the game as much as possible, and then come back here and refresh and recover for today, he said. He also said that he had a short break with his mates to Newton Peak and to the Southern Alps in between the two matches for some refreshment. Yeah, for me, I actually took a couple of mates up flying. We went out to Newton Peak and to the Southern Alps. Fantastic. It was great to get out there, just free the mind for a little bit, do something that I love, and I guess come back, enjoy the evening, and rest and recover for today, he added. Phillips switched to a left-hander against Bhuvneshwar Kumar on the final ball of New Zealand's innings and nailed a four on the final ball to take the Kiwis to 225/4. He admitted that he trains batting left-handed during the IPL and unleashed his learnings in the game. Yeah, I try to, especially when we have, I guess, the time overseas, like the IPL, for example, where you've got lots of net opportunities, lots of sidearms, lots of throwers. I guess it's a little bit remiss to not use that opportunity to upskill.

Prepared to face cyclonic system, people need not panic: Odisha Minister

Digital Desk | Bhubaneswar, Oct 23 (IANS) Odisha Revenue and Disaster Management Minister Suresh Pujari on Friday assured the public that the state government is fully prepared and has completed all the preparations to tackle the impending cyclonic system. While speaking to media persons, Pujari urged the people not to panic as the state has extensive experience handling severe weather disasters and is ready to face such challenges. He said the administration is prepared for the worst-case scenario regardless of the final intensity of the cyclonic storm or landfall location. The minister stated that all concerned departments of the state government as well as district administrations are fully prepared to face any eventualities faced by the probable cyclone. There is no need to worry, nor is there any need to be perturbed. This cyclone will also come and pass. And to ensure there is no significant damage, the State Government has already put in place whatever arrangements are necessary, said Pujari. According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), on Friday, a Low Pressure Area has formed over southeast and adjoining east central Bay of Bengal under the influence of the upper air cyclonic circulation in the region. It is most likely to persist over the same region and intensify into a depression on 24th October 2026. Thereafter, it is very likely to move west-northwestwards and intensify further into a deep depression on 25th October & into a cyclonic storm over the Westcentral Bay of Bengal by 26th October morning. It would then continue to intensify further and move west-northwestwards towards North Andhra Pradesh and adjoining South Odisha coasts during the subsequent 2 days, informed the IMD on Friday. Meanwhile, IMD Bhubaneswar director Manorama Mohanty said once a depression forms, the systems likely track will be indicated. She added that it is expected to move towards the west-northwest. The fishermen in Odisha have been advised not to venture into the sea along and off the Odisha Coasts on October 26th and 27. The intensity of rainfall in coastal areas of the state is expected to increase from October 27 evening. The state is expected to experience very heavy rainfall on October 29. However, on the 26th, coastal districts are likely to experience rainfall accompanied by lightning and thunder.

'Worst on record': Brutal summer heat killed over 50,000 people in Europe's cities

An aerial view of scorched grass in London, the UK, on August 11, 2026. - Dan Kitwood/Getty Images More than 50,000 people are estimated to have died across Europes cities during the brutal heat waves that roiled the continent this summer making this years heat the regions deadliest on record, according to a new analysis . About two-thirds of the deaths, more than 32,600, are directly attributed to climate change, driven by fossil fuel pollution, according to the findings, published in two peer-reviewed papers in the journal Nature Health. I think we can be quite confident in stating that the summer of 2026 is likely to have been the worst on record for heat-related mortality across much of Europe, said Clair Barnes, an author on the reports and an extreme weather and climate change researcher at Imperial College London. This stark death toll is revealed just weeks before international leaders gather in Turkey for the annual UN climate talks, and days after a UN report warned the worlds chance of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels has now vanished . Were well off-track to limit the worst consequences of climate change, and governments need to realize that without faster action and coordination, things will only get worse, Barnes said. Europe is the fastest-warming continent and extreme heat, the deadliest form of extreme weather, is already becoming unbearable. Unprecedented high temperatures scorched the continent from late May until the end of August this year. It was western Europes hottest summer on record , with temperatures about 2.9 degrees Celsius (5.2 Fahrenheit) above the 1991-2020 average. Individual days, however, saw much larger anomalies, with temperatures more than 12 degrees Celsius (21.6 Fahrenheit) higher than usual in some countries. A tourist attempts to cool down near the Colosseum during a heatwave in Rome, Italy, on June 20. - Guglielmo Mangiapane/Reuters To calculate the death toll, scientists compared the temperatures in 854 cities across 30 European countries this summer with those that would have been expected in a world without climate change. They then used peer-reviewed research on the relationship between high temperatures and daily deaths to model the likely number of heat-related deaths between the start of June and the end of August. Its a method that has been found to produce death toll estimates broadly in line with those later produced by national health authorities, the scientists said. They estimated a total of 50,391 heat-related deaths across the cities, which make up about 40% of the population of the countries studied. The death toll is the highest for 26 years and substantially higher than that of previous major European heat waves in 2022 and 2003, the researchers found. Southern and western Europe were worst affected , but typically cooler northern regions, including the UK , also experienced thousands of deaths. The highest death rates were among people 85 or older, but heat can affect anyone, and more than 800 people between the ages of 20 and 44 died from heat-related reasons, according to the findings. This summer is likely to have been the most dangerously hot summer that Europe has experienced to date, the report concludes. The scientists also found the role of climate change in heat deaths is becoming more pronounced. Earlier this century, fossil fuel pollution was responsible for about 40% of heat deaths compared to around two-thirds today. Raquel Nunes, an associate professor in health and environment at the University of Warwick, who was not involved in the research, said the findings contribute to growing evidence of how deadly extreme heat can be, despite being described as a silent killer due to its impacts not always being immediately visible. One of the most concerning aspects was that the death toll was also high among younger people, with thousands under 65 estimated to have died, Nunes added. The modelled death estimates should be treated with caution as they involve several uncertainties and assumptions, said Lasse Vestergaard, chief physician at the European Mortality Monitoring Network, known as EuroMOMO. Despite this, he added, the researchers estimates are overall broadly in line with those reported over the summer by EuroMOMO. Until we kick the fossil fuel habit, we will continue to see increasingly hot and dangerous summers, Barnes said. And that means even deadlier summers on the horizon. These numbers are a stark reminder that our hotter, more extreme summers are having an increasingly severe impact on public health, she added. Behind these statistics are real people whose lives were lost and real families who grieve for them.

Oppn should reach out to people to address their concerns, rather than holding protests: BJP MP Mittal

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 22 (IANS) BJP MP Ashok Mittal on Thursday criticised the Opposition for holding protests, saying that it should focus on working for the country and its people instead of wasting time on demonstrations that cause inconvenience to the public. Speaking to IANS, Mittal said the Opposition should reach out to people and work to address their concerns rather than resorting to protests. Unfortunately, the Opposition is wasting its time on protests. They should work for the country and the people. Why don't they work for the public by reaching out to them? What will these protests achieve? They are wasting their own time and causing inconvenience to people, he said. He added that such protests often lead to traffic jams and force shops to shut, inconveniencing ordinary citizens. Traffic jams occur at various places, and shops have to close. This will only distance the public from them, not bring them closer. The matter is before the Supreme Court, which is examining it, while the Election Commission is also looking into it in its own way, Mittal said. The BJP MP also spoke about the drug problem in Punjab, alleging that anti-social elements, gangsters and drug smugglers were contributing to the crisis. He claimed that the alleged nexus between drug smugglers and government officials was allowing the problem to persist. Anti-social elements, gangsters and drug smugglers are spreading the drug problem in Punjab. However, this is possible because of the government's involvement. It is very unfortunate that the government, administration and drug smugglers are working together, with links between them. When our government comes to power, there will be no such collusion, and the problem will be resolved, he told IANS. Mittal also commented on India's ongoing trade negotiations with several countries, expressing confidence that an agreement with the United States would be finalised soon. He said India had already concluded trade agreements with the United Kingdom, New Zealand and several other countries, adding that negotiations with the US had reached an advanced stage. India has already completed trade agreements with the UK, New Zealand and several other countries. The agreement with the US is at the final stage. US President Donald Trump himself has said so, and his senior ministers have also visited India. That agreement will also be completed, he said. Emphasising that India's interests would remain paramount, Mittal said any trade agreement with the US would be finalised only after taking the country's priorities into account. It is clear that India will not compromise on its interests. Any trade agreement will be concluded with India's interests in mind and will prove to be a new milestone for India and its trade, he added.
