Smriti Mandhana: In her reflection on the historic 21 T20I series victory over Australia, India batter Smriti Mandhana said that the Women in Blue just want to consistently stay at the top, regardless of who they are defeating or where they are playing. India sealed the three-match series with a 17-run win in the decider at the Adelaide Oval on Saturday to secure their first bilateral series win on Australia's soil in a decade. After being put in to bat, the visitors posted a competitive 176 for 6, built around Mandhanas unbeaten 82 off 55 balls and a fluent 59 from Jemimah Rodrigues. The bowlers then held their nerve to restrict Australia to 159 for 9, ensuring India's historic triumph. Mandhana spoke on the teams long-term vision and hunger for consistency at the highest level. I think we are on the verge of a transition where we want to dominate world cricket. Whoever we beat, wherever we beat, that doesnt matter. We just want to be consistent in beating them and being at the top, she said in a video released by the Indian cricket team on Instagram. Mandhana, who has a great record at Adelaide, also showered her love for the city and said, I mean, I really loved Adelaide as a city, even before playing here. And yeah, it's just very peaceful, nice. I mean, a few Aussies will be very happy when I say that it's the best city in Australia, and actually, I find it the best city in Australia. She further stated that after playing lots of 50-over matches last year, the team's focus has now shifted to T20Is and they are working hard to improve their game in the shortest format. Last year was a one-day year where we played a lot of one-day cricket. So coming into this year, for sure, I feel like we are a well-settled ODI squad. But we are still working on our T20 game, for me as well, this is one format which I always have to keep working hard on, she said. Because a one-day cricket test match is very natural. But in T20Is, I always feel like I have to be ahead of the game. So it's good to start the year with a win, especially knowing it's a World Cup year, and again, you're going to play in England, overseas conditions. So starting your year with an overseas T20 series win is a good thing to start. And I hope that we keep the momentum going, the vice captain added. Mandhana also spoke favourably about the multi-format series concept, which blends T20Is, ODIs and Tests. She feels that the concept increases the importance of every match and makes the game more interesting. Well, I really love the concept of multi-format series. I always feel that it's a very good thing for women's cricket. A multi-format series, because it gives all the games equal importance. Even if you have won the series, the third match is still very important. Because it's going to end up giving you points, she said. Plus a test match in that, which is again very special to play a test match in cricket. So I feel going forward, we having a lot of multi-format series is amazing, she added. After winning the T20I series, world champions India will now head to fight Australia in a three-match ODI series. Plus a test match in that, which is again very special to play a test match in cricket. So I feel going forward, we having a lot of multi-format series is amazing, she added.

The Art of Living & Autocracy Machinery: Restoring the Heartbeat of India's Water Bodies
From city skylines to rural horizons, Indias waters are in distress - overwhelmed by sewage, choked by weeds and abandoned to years of neglect. Across cities, semi-urban settlements and rural landscapes, water bodies that once sustained communities are now struggling to breathe. Against this backdrop, a decisive step was taken on 18 February 2026. An MoU was signed between Br Pragyachaitanya, Chairman of The Art of Living Social Projects, and Ms. Santhoshi Sushma Buddhiraju, CEO of Autocracy Machinery. The agreement sets in motion a nationwide effort to restore and rejuvenate lakes, ponds, rivulets and streams across India. An MoU between The Art of Living Social Projects & Autocracy Machinery signals the launch of a nationwide mission to revive Indias water bodies Responding to a Growing Need The Art of Living Social Projects has received an overwhelming number of requests for lake and pond rejuvenation from across the country. In many inhabited areas - from expanding cities to small towns and villages - untreated sewage continues to flow into local water bodies. The consequences are stark: water turns dark and foul-smelling, oxygen levels plummet, fish perish, algal blooms spread unchecked, and once-thriving ecosystems slide into slow, suffocating decline. The new partnership ensures that The Art of Living Social Projects can undertake scientifically designed restoration projects anywhere in India, supported by appropriate funding and technical capacity. Autocracy Machinery in Action: Innovation on Water, Under Water and On Land Autocracy Machinery, an emerging Indian start-up, brings specialised equipment designed to operate on water, under water and on land - enabling thorough, end-to-end restoration. From removing invasive weeds and decades of silt to clearing sludge and stabilising lake beds, the machinery tackles the visible damage head-on. Mechanical cleaning is the critical first step. Years of pollutants and sediment must be cleared before a water body can recover. Nature-Based Healing: Bio-remediation and Phyto-remediation Following the physical cleaning process, The Art of Living Social Projects will introduce ecological restoration measures to ensure long-term sustainability. Bio-remediation involves using beneficial microorganisms to naturally break down sewage, organic waste and harmful pollutants present in the water. Phyto-remediation uses carefully selected aquatic plants to absorb toxins, heavy metals and excess nutrients, thereby restoring water quality in a natural and environmentally friendly manner. Advanced Oxygenation through Nano Bubbles To strengthen natural restoration methods, The Art of Living Social Projects will introduce nano bubble technology - an advanced system for water oxygenation and purification. These ultra-fine oxygen bubbles, less than 200 nanometres in size, remain suspended in water instead of rising to the surface. Containing over 95% oxygen, they disperse evenly and release oxygen gradually, boosting dissolved oxygen levels, supporting beneficial microbes and accelerating the breakdown of pollutants. The result is clearer water, healthier aquatic life and stronger ecosystem recovery. By combining mechanical, biological and technological solutions, this approach shifts restoration from a one-time clean-up into lasting ecological renewal. Reviving Communities Through Water Indias lakes and ponds are not idle waters; they are living ecosystems, climate buffers and anchors of community life. When a water body comes back to life, the impact reaches far beyond its banks - groundwater recharge improves, biodiversity returns, health risks decline and livelihoods strengthen, as communities reclaim spaces that once shaped their identity. Their restoration is not just an environmental priority, but a social and ecological necessity. About The Art of Living Social Projects The Art of Living, a non-profit, educational and humanitarian organisation founded in 1981 by world-renowned spiritual leader and humanitarian Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, is deeply committed to addressing Indias pressing water challenges. Through large-scale water conservation initiatives, the organisation works to alleviate water scarcity, restore ecosystems and enhance the quality of life for communities across the country.
