Dhinidhi Desinghu wins historic bronze in women's 100m freestyle at Youth Olympics
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 2 (IANS) There was a time when Dhinidhi Desinghu was so frightened of water that she ran back home in her swimsuit rather than enter a swimming pool. On Monday, the 16-year-old Bengaluru swimmer stood on the podium at the Dakar 2026 Youth Olympic Games, having clinched a bronze medal in the women's 100m freestyle. Dhinidhi clocked a personal best of 56.27 seconds in the final to finish third behind Croatia's Ana Bobanovic (55.89) and New Zealand's Alyssa Lawson (56.13), becoming the first Indian female swimmer to reach a final at the Youth Olympics. For the teenager, who had once actively disliked swimming, the achievement marked a remarkable transformation from a reluctant beginner to one of India's most promising young swimmers. I know I was really scared. There's a story from when I was six or seven... We went to the pool during summer break... I went to the pool and then ran back home in my swimsuit because I just hated being there, Dhinidhi told Olympics.com after winning her medal. Her parents had to enter the pool themselves to persuade her to get into the water. Swimming was initially introduced as a recreational activity, largely because the pool was close to home and convenient for her parents to take her for lessons. Dhinidhi, who preferred spending time alone reading books rather than engaging in outdoor activities, gradually developed an interest in the sport as she grew older. I'm not really sure how I fell in love with swimming, but as the years went by, I grew to love it, she said. Her competitive instincts eventually became a driving force, with swimming providing an outlet for her desire to challenge herself and win. That determination took her to the Paris 2024 Olympics at just 14, where she was the youngest member of the Indian contingent. For someone who had grown up watching the world's leading swimmers on television, competing alongside them was an unforgettable experience. You see these swimmers on TV, and suddenly they're standing next to you, competing in the same events, swimming in the same pool and even in the same lanes, she recalled. Among those who left her starstruck was French swimming sensation Leon Marchand. However, the experience extended beyond the pool, with life in the Olympic Village, interactions with athletes from different countries and exchanging pins among her cherished memories. There were so many things I experienced at 14 that I don't think many athletes get to experience in their entire lives. People train for years, sometimes their whole lives, to become Olympians. To be able to say that I became one at 14 was, in a way, lucky. But at the same time, I worked really hard for it, she said. Two years after her Olympic debut, Dhinidhi arrived in Dakar with greater experience and confidence. She clocked 56.80 seconds in the 100m freestyle heats, the third-fastest time overall, to qualify for the final. It was also the first time she had gone below 57 seconds in a morning heat. She improved her performance further in the final, lowering her personal best by 0.53 seconds to secure the bronze medal. However, the teenager revealed that her primary focus had been on improving her timing rather than winning a medal. I wasn't really thinking about a medal. It was mostly about improving my time, she said. Despite celebrating her podium finish, Dhinidhi's competitive spirit meant she was already thinking about what could have been better. Every athlete comes here to win gold. A medal is a medal, but at the end of the day, everybody is competitive and everybody wants that gold medal, she added. Behind the achievement are years of demanding training schedules, early mornings and sacrifices. Asked whom she would dedicate the medal to, Dhinidhi came up with an answer that reflected both gratitude and self-belief. Probably my mom, my dad and myself. The swimmer explained that while athletes often acknowledge the people who support them, they sometimes forget to recognise their own efforts and perseverance. I feel like I thank a lot of people, but I sometimes forget to thank myself for going through all of this. It's hard to get up in the morning, put in all that effort, go to the gym, work so hard and get into the pool every day, she said. Recalling the difficult training sessions, including days when she had to train alone, she added, So I kind of want to thank myself as well for putting in all that work. For a girl who once ran away from a swimming pool, the bronze medal in Dakar represents much more than a podium finish. Dhinidhi now hopes to use the Youth Olympic achievement as a stepping stone towards a bigger ambition: winning an Olympic medal in swimming, something India has yet to achieve. The people competing here (at the Youth Olympics) are going to be my competitors one day at future Olympics. Winning a medal here shows that maybe, if I keep this steady pace going, I could win a medal at the Olympics, she said. She also hopes her journey will inspire more girls to take up swimming and help the sport gain greater recognition in India. We're not really a swimming nation, and it's not common to see women do well in our sport. To see that I've inspired a lot of people, especially girls and even non-swimmers, means a lot, she added.

BCCI Extends IPL 2027 Retention Deadline To November 17 Due To India-NZ Fifth ODI Clash
Lucknow Super Giants: The BCCI has given all ten IPL franchises two more days to submit their retention lists, as they moved the deadline to November 17. The 2027 IPL player auction will go ahead as planned on December 16 in Goa. IANS understands that the BCCI informed all ten franchises of the two-day extension in an official communication on Monday. The original retention deadline of November 15 clashed with the fifth and final ODI between India and New Zealand at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui. It is understood that the clash with the mens ODI match would have affected the retention announcement and its subsequent coverage, and that prompted the board to move the deadline to November 17. The player registration for the IPL 2027 auction opened on Monday and will end on November 23. It gives players worldwide three weeks to put their names forward for the auction. The entire process, from the opening of registration to the auction, will run for a little over six weeks. Interestingly, the auction day also clashes with an international fixture India will host Sri Lanka in the second mens ODI at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. As of now, theres no sign of moving the auction date, or changing the date on which the ODI game in Bengaluru will happen. The remaining steps follow in quick succession - once registration closes, the auction register will be finalised on November 24. Teams will have time until November 27, to put in requests for additional players, and allow them to ask for names not on the initial register to be added to the pool. Franchises must submit their player auction lists by December 1. The final auction list, along with the sets in which players will go under the hammer, is scheduled to be unveiled on December 3. That leaves a gap of nearly two weeks between the release of the final player list and the auction itself on December 16 for teams to work out their respective strategies. Two trades have been completed so far ahead of the 2027 IPL mini auction. Delhi Capitals (DC) brought back their former captain, wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant, from Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), with left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav moving to Lucknow. DC also sent left-arm fast bowler T Natarajan back to 2016 winners Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in exchange for leg-spinner Zeeshan Ansari. The dates for the 2027 IPL season are yet to be confirmed. When the IPL announced the windows for three seasons in 2024, it earmarked March 14 to May 30 as the time to host the 2027 season. In September, after the BCCIs annual general meeting (AGM), board secretary Devajit Saikia indicated the tournament could get under way around the end of March. Delhi Capitals (DC) brought back their former captain, wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant, from Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), with left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav moving to Lucknow.

Siddaramaiah meets Rahul Gandhi amid ongoing sting operation controversy
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 2 (IANS) Congress Working Committee (CWC) member and former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah met senior party leader Rahul Gandhi here on Monday amid the ongoing controversy surrounding the alleged sting operation linked to him. Karnataka Urban Development Minister and his son Yathindra Siddaramaiah and the Chief Ministers Legal Adviser Ponnanna were present during the meeting. Earlier in the day, Siddaramaiah met Congress General Secretary K.C. Venugopal. Siddaramaiah has briefed the party leadership on the latest developments in the case and discussed the possibility of certain insiders being involved in the sting operation. He had already held discussions on the matter with members of his close circle. Siddaramaiah earlier indicated that he had filed a complaint in connection with the sting operation and that the investigation into the matter was not appropriate. Several state Congress leaders accompanied Siddaramaiah during his meeting with Venugopal in Delhi. Along with his son and Ponnanna, former ministers Venkatesh, Legislative Council members Nagaraj Yadav, Dr Thimmaiah, and Shivakumar, former member Ramesh Babu, and Vice-Chairman of the State Guarantee Schemes Implementation Authority Mehroze Khan accompanied him to Delhi. The sting operation case has triggered a political controversy in Karnataka, with the CCB investigating the alleged operation, the circulation of the video, and the circumstances surrounding its recording. Siddaramaiah had described the alleged sting operation against him as a systematic blackmail conspiracy, naming a journalist and Krupa Alva of Mangaluru as people he believes were behind it. His remarks have added fresh momentum to the controversy, which has now reached the national political arena amid competing allegations about the possible involvement of Congress members. He said his eight years as Chief Minister and his long political career had not been marked by allegations of this kind. He accused unnamed individuals of using blackmail as a political tactic and insisted that he had committed no wrongdoing. Siddaramaiah maintained that the video, which purportedly featured claims of sexual abuse from an incident in 2011 and surfaced on social media, is completely baseless and part of a malicious political campaign to tarnish his character. He personally lodged a formal complaint with the Bengaluru City Police Commissioner, demanding an impartial and fair investigation to unmask the real culprits behind the concocted case. He also moved the Bengaluru City Civil and Sessions Court to obtain an interim injunction restraining newspapers, television channels, and social media platforms from publishing or broadcasting the unverified video.

Home Ministry expands FRRO framework for better management of foreign nationals
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Nov 2 (IANS) The Union Home Ministry highlighted on Monday that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the institutional framework for management of foreign nationals has been strengthened through expansion of Foreigners Regional Registration Offices (FRROs), to establish an office in all state capitals by 2027. In a statement issued by the Ministry, senior officials said that there has been a substantial increase in the number of foreigners visiting India for tourism, medical and education purposes, and there is a need to appoint FRROs in all states. This will ensure service accessibility, enhance regulatory compliance and promote India as an attractive destination. Identifying this need, Union Home Minister Amit Shah has directed the establishment of FRROs in all state capitals by 2027, the statement said. Pursuant to the above directions of the Union Home Minister, five new FRROs have been set up in the capitals of five states since 2025, said the statement. Three FRRO offices at Jaipur, Chandigarh and Guwahati were established in 2025. Earlier, these were under the jurisdiction of the FRRO offices located at Delhi, Amritsar and Kolkata, respectively, it said. This year two new FRRO offices have been established in the state capitals, namely, Aizawl (Mizoram) and Amravati (Andhra Pradesh). Earlier, Aizawl was under the jurisdiction of FRRO, Kolkata, whereas Amravati was under the jurisdiction of FRRO, Hyderabad, it said. Recently, three new FRRO offices, namely Kohima (Nagaland), Agartala (Tripura) and Bhubaneshwar (Odisha) were notified. Earlier, Kohima and Agartala were under the jurisdiction of FRRO, Kolkata, whereas Bhubaneshwar was under the jurisdiction of FRRO, Hyderabad, said the statement. The total number of FRRO offices in the country has now gone up to twenty (20), located at Ahmedabad, Amravati, Amritsar, Aizawl, Agartala, Bengaluru, Bhubaneswar, Calicut, Chennai, Cochin, Chandigarh, Delhi, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Kohima, Kozhikode, Lucknow, Mumbai and Trivandrum, it said. The expansion of Foreigners Regional Registration Offices (FRROs) has a dual focus on facilitating foreigners legitimate travel and stay in India and ensuring effective implementation of immigration laws and security requirements, it said.

NDA to work together for Hiriyur bypoll victory: K'taka BJP
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 2 (IANS) Karnataka BJP President and MLA B.Y. Vijayendra on Monday said the BJP and JD(S) would work together in the upcoming Hiriyur Assembly by-election and formulate a strategy to ensure an NDA victory. Speaking to reporters at the BJP state headquarters, Jagannath Bhavan, Vijayendra said the BJP would focus on devising a winning strategy rather than merely discussing how to defeat the Congress. We will formulate a strategy on how we should win rather than concentrating only on how to defeat the Congress party, he said. Vijayendra said the Hiriyur bypoll could be announced at any time and that the issue had been discussed in detail at the BJP core committee meeting held on Monday. We need to sit with some senior BJP leaders and also discuss the matter with Kumaraswamy. We will hold discussions and decide how to field a consensus candidate, he said. Taking a dig at the Congress government, Vijayendra said Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar had already visited Hiriyur within two to three months of assuming office. He said the recent Legislative Council election results reflected the growing dissatisfaction among people against the Congress government. Despite all the show of strength by the ruling Congress government and the Chief Minister, the people of Karnataka have lost confidence in this government, he claimed. Vijayendra said BJP National General Secretary and Karnataka in-charge Harish Dwivedi participated in the party's state office-bearers' meeting and provided guidance on strengthening the organisation in Karnataka. He said the results of the recent Legislative Council elections indicated the level of public anger against the Congress government. There is public anger against the state government and the ruling party. We have been advised to strengthen the organisation by carrying out positive struggles and prepare for the upcoming GBA elections, Zilla Panchayat and Gram Panchayat elections, he said. Vijayendra said the BJP would also have to work keeping the next Assembly elections in mind, adding that the party faced several challenges. The Assembly elections are not very far away. We have many challenges before us, and we have been given guidance on how to overcome those challenges and move forward successfully, he said. He added that Dwivedi had also held informal discussions with members of the BJP state core committee and assured them that he would devote more time to Karnataka. Harish Dwivedi has vast experience. His decision to spend more time in Karnataka will strengthen the organisation and give us greater strength, Vijayendra said. Responding to another question, Vijayendra alleged that the Congress was carrying out a campaign against the Election Commission and other constitutional institutions in Delhi and different parts of the country. He further alleged that the Congress and other parties were conspiring against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and attempting to destabilise the democratically elected Central government. It is clear that the Congress and other parties are conspiring to topple our government at the Centre, which came to power democratically, he alleged. Vijayendra said the BJP had launched a nationwide campaign titled, Save Democracy, Remove Anarchy, against what he described as the Congress party's propaganda and conspiracies. He said the campaign would be held at all district headquarters in Karnataka. As part of the campaign, a padyatra will be held in Kolar on Tuesday, beginning around 11 or 11.30 a.m. More than 10,000 youths are expected to participate. I, Harish Dwivedi and other state leaders will take part in the padyatra, he said. A similar padyatra would be organised in Chitradurga the following day, he added. Vijayendra also launched a sharp attack on the Congress and Rahul Gandhi, alleging that the party had become frustrated under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. The Congress party and Rahul Gandhi have become extremely frustrated. While Narendra Modi is leading the country as Prime Minister, Rahul Gandhi is dreaming of somehow becoming Prime Minister. Out of frustration, they are resorting to such conspiracies, and our campaign is against this, he alleged. Responding to questions about developments within the ruling Congress, Vijayendra claimed that factionalism in the party would intensify following the Legislative Council election results. I had said that efforts were underway to bring a third Chief Minister to Karnataka. Many secret meetings are taking place, he claimed. He further alleged that former Chief Minister and Congress Working Committee member Siddaramaiah had travelled to Delhi and complained against Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar. There is information that Siddaramaiah went to Delhi and lodged a complaint against D.K. Shivakumar, Vijayendra claimed. Overall, all is not well in the Congress party and the ruling government. There are already indications that this could explode at any time, he said.

Ktaka: ED raids five premises in counterfeit medicines racket case; bank accounts frozen
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 2 (IANS) The Enforcement Directorate (ED), Bengaluru, has conducted search and seizure operations at five premises linked to persons and entities allegedly involved in a counterfeit medicines racket, as part of an ongoing money-laundering investigation under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002, the official statement said on Monday. The searches were carried out under Section 17 of the PMLA in connection with FIR No. 0266/2026, dated August 18, 2026, registered at Tavarekere Police Station in Bengaluru South, Karnataka. According to the ED, the case originated from a joint raid conducted by the Drug Controlling Authority and police personnel on August 18 at a residential property in CK Tandya village. During the raid, the accused were allegedly found storing medicines and pharmaceutical drugs without valid licences, permits or authorisation and replacing labels on the stored medicines. The offences registered under Section 318(4) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, and Section 63 of the Copyright Act, 1957, are scheduled offences under the PMLA. Accordingly, the ED registered an Enforcement Case Information Report (ECIR No. ECIR/BGZO/45/2026) and initiated a money-laundering investigation. The investigation has allegedly revealed that R. Prashanth arranged a farmhouse near Bidadi for the manufacture, repackaging and relabelling of medicines without the mandatory drug licence or permit. According to the investigation, cheap bulk pharmaceutical formulations sourced from manufacturing centres in various states were allegedly repackaged into new vials and fraudulently relabelled as expensive Pfizer antibiotics, including Zavicefta and Emblaveo. Although the vials allegedly contained generic medicines, they carried labels bearing the Pfizer brand name. The counterfeit medicines were allegedly distributed through DM Pharmaceuticals and supplied to Krupa Healthcare. Subsequently, Krupa Healthcare allegedly supplied the products to other pharmaceutical entities and hospitals along with genuine medicines, apparently to avoid detection. During the search operations, the ED froze bank accounts belonging to Veeresh Kumar containing approximately Rs 9 lakh. Digital devices, records and incriminating documents belonging to various persons were also seized during the searches. Further investigation into the case is underway, the ED said.
Ktaka: PM Modi to inaugurate Bengaluru Metro Pink Line on Nov 13
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 2 (IANS) BJP MP Tejasvi Surya said on Monday that the much-awaited 7.5-km elevated stretch of Bengaluru Metro Pink Line will be inaugurated on November 13, The inauguration of the Pink Line has been anticipated for the past six months, but the launch was delayed due to delays in obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals for train operations. With the inauguration date now finalised, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to visit Bengaluru on November 13 to formally launch the service. The Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) plans to initially operate six trains on the 7.5-km stretch. The route has already received safety clearance from the Commissioner of Metro Railway Safety (CMRS), making it technically ready for operations. The BMRCL and the state government are expected to announce the official timetable and details of the inauguration programme shortly. The Pink Line, connecting Kalena Agrahara to Nagawara, has a total length of 21.26 km, including a 13.76-km underground section. Construction of the 7.5-km elevated stretch between Kalena Agrahara and Tavarekere has been completed, and it recently received safety clearance from the CMRS. In the first phase, metro services will operate between Kalena Agrahara and Tavarekere, covering six stations: Kalena Agrahara, Hulimavu, IIMB, JP Nagar 4th Phase, Jayadeva Hospital and Tavarekere. Jayadeva Hospital station will serve as a key interchange between the Yellow and Pink lines. The launch of this stretch is expected to provide relief to commuters travelling along Bannerghatta Road and areas around IIMB, JP Nagar and Jayadeva Hospital, which frequently experience heavy traffic congestion, particularly during morning and evening peak hours. Traffic snarls stretching for several kilometres are common in these areas, especially during the rainy season. The commencement of metro services is expected to ease congestion and provide commuters with an alternative mode of transport. Earlier, Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar had himself stated that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would visit Bengaluru on November 15 to inaugurate the metro stretch between Kalena Agrahara and Tavarekere. However, the date has now been changed, and PM Modi will launch the Pink Line metro services on November 13 instead of November 15.

Ktaka BJP Mahila Morcha protests milk price hike; Shobha Karandlaje demands rollback
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 2 (IANS) The BJP State Mahila Morcha on Monday staged a protest at Freedom Park in Bengaluru against the hike in milk prices, with Union Minister Shobha Karandlaje demanding that the Congress government roll back the increased prices and provide justice to farmers, warning that the government should quit power before a revolution erupts. Before a revolution takes place in the state, the Congress government should leave power. Otherwise, roll back all the prices you have increased and give justice to our farmers, Karandlaje said while addressing the protesters. The Union Minister alleged that the state governments administration had collapsed over the past three to four months and had reached its lowest level. The state governments administration has come down to zero in the last three to four months. Today, it has reached its lowest level. Such a situation has been created in Karnataka, she charged. Questioning Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar over what she described as the government's Kannada Rajyotsava gift to the people, Karandlaje said those in power should not judge the financial condition of ordinary citizens based on their own lifestyles. Chief Minister, what is your Kannada Rajyotsava gift to the people? You may be wealthy enough to drink Bisleri water in your homes, but we are not people who drink Bisleri. We drink the water of our mother Cauvery, she said. Do not determine the standard of living of the people of Karnataka based on your own status. You may be able to pay more for milk, but people who work in hotels for small salaries, drive taxis and autorickshaws, or survive through roadside businesses are facing severe hardship, she added. Karandlaje said ordinary citizens had to pay house rent, electricity bills, water bills and garbage collection charges from their limited incomes while also bearing the burden of repeated increases in milk and curd prices. The Union Minister also attacked the Congress government over drought relief, alleging that farmers had been given Rs 2,500 per acre as if it were charity while being subjected to several conditions. There has been inadequate rainfall, and the state is facing a severe drought. The government has given farmers Rs 2,500 per acre as if it were alms, she alleged. She said the previous BJP government led by B.S. Yediyurappa had provided Rs 4,000 to farmers in addition to assistance under the Centre's PM-Kisan Samman scheme. After coming to power, they stopped the money that the Yediyurappa government was providing to farmers. For even this Rs 2,500, they have imposed 17 or 18 rules and conditions, she charged. Karandlaje further alleged that the government had repeatedly increased milk prices while its guarantee schemes were not reaching beneficiaries properly. Rs 5,000 crore under the Gruha Lakshmi scheme has gone missing, and the government has not accounted for it till date, she alleged. She also criticised the government over the condition of the state-run transport corporations, claiming there was no money to repair buses or purchase diesel despite the government's free bus travel scheme for women. Former Legislative Council member Bharati Shetty, who also addressed the protest, demanded an immediate rollback of the milk price hike. She said the previous BJP government under Yediyurappa had provided subsidies for milk from the state exchequer and demanded that the Congress government fulfil its manifesto promise of providing milk subsidies. The Congress government should provide subsidies for milk as promised in its manifesto. But it is not right to give consumers a shock treatment, she said. Bharati Shetty said the BJP Mahila Morcha was holding protests against the price hike across Karnataka, including at the district, mandal and ward levels. She alleged that the government had increased milk prices several times and criticised the latest hike. BJP Kisan Morcha State Vice-President Bharati Mallikarjun, leaders Poornima Prakash, Bengaluru North Mahila Morcha district president Manjula Devi, Bengaluru Central Mahila Morcha district president Neethu N.M.

Dad Couldnt Play For India, He Sees That Dream In Me, Says GGs Newest Recruit Samaira Raghav
Against South Delhi Superstarz: Samaira Raghav was not supposed to be watching the Womens Premier League (WPL) auction. Her parents had asked her to stay away from seeing live feed of the auction proceedings happening in Kochi last week. They feared the weight of hope would be too much for a 16-year-old to carry, in case she doesn't find any takers. A day before the auction, Samaira was one of four late entries that took the WPL 2027 auction pool from 146 to 150 players. She learnt about it from an Instagram story, and then from her mother. My mom quickly messaged me that, I think you are in the auction list now, Samaira recalled in an exclusive conversation with IANS on Monday. Five minutes before her name came up, she switched the feed on anyway at her hotel room in Bilaspur, Himachal Pradesh, where she is currently playing the U19 Womens T20 Challengers tournament, with her Team D room-mate. Then I saw my name and the Gujarat Giants paddle go up and I was just ecstatic. Both of us screamed at the top of our lungs in the hotel room. Then after that, it was just surreal, she added. Gujarat Giants bought her at her base price of 10 lakh rupees. But for Samaira, it was the first public validation of a dream which began taking shape nine years ago. Born on January 23, 2010, Samairas tryst with sports began with 100m and 200m sprints. But my dad wanted me to try other sports as well because I was very sporty ever since I was young. At seven, her father Sunil Raghav took her to a cricket academy. The first session featured fielding, and it won over Samaira. I just enjoyed it so much. After that day, I just kept going to the academy with my own free will. My dad kind of pushed me into cricket. But from there, I just took over. Sunil played as a leg-spinner until college, before committing to studies, including pursuing an MBA from IIM Calcutta. Sunil later went on to scale technologies at Dow Chemicals, Dr Reddys Laboratories and Total (Arkema Global) in USA and India. I think it was his wish for himself to play cricket at India level. But he could not fulfill it. So, he kind of sees it in me now and I am working on it, said Samaira. Samairas mother, Puja Jain, spent a decade at McKinsey & Company. She rose to partner and co-led its sustainability practice, as well as holds two US patents from research at Penn State University and Dow Chemicals. Today the couple run ElementRe, which specialises in end-to-end lithium-ion battery recycling solutions. While Puja is the CEO, Sunil acts as CTO. In cricket, Samaira started out mainly as a batter. During the Covid-19 lockdown, batting was impossible in their housing society in Gurugram, so Sunil got time to develop her leg-spin skills. We would just go down in our society and I would start bowling. He taught me the basics and from there, I kind of picked up my bowling skills from my dad. As Samaira grew, Sunil stepped back. When I was a bit younger, I wasn't that independent. But after a few years, he let me be independent. I would go and come back by metro. Since then, he has been around. But he just leaves me on his own now. Samaira now trains under Dipti Dhyani, currently the head coach of Delhi's senior women's team, at the City Cricket Academy in Hauz Khas, which is affiliated to the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) and plays under the name Sonnet. It was there that her role changed. As a child she opened the batting. But playing alongside the seniors, Samaira was pushed down the order. Her coaches had one piece of advice: if she gets batting late, she needs to hit sixes. They told me that I should probably develop the skill to hit sixes. So, from there, we started working on it. After that, I would just go and finish matches and everything. I would not feel that much pressure while doing it. That is why I just picked it from there and I really enjoy it, she said. She also saw where womens cricket was rapidly going more towards power-hitting and six-hitting skills. In the earlier days, there was more of grounded cricket. But now, the game has changed. The formats have become shorter and everybody is focussing more on power hitting in sixes. I also thought I would also learn and go with whatever trend is going on. Then, I know it will help me in the future as well if I am hitting sixes. Her role models are two of India's best-known finishers: former captain MS Dhoni and wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh. Obviously, there is MSD. Richa Ghosh now, she is really amazing, said Samaira. The work showed this year in the Women's Delhi Premier League (DPL), where Samaira played for North Delhi Strikers. Against South Delhi Superstarz, Samairas 32 off 26 balls, with two fours and a six, helped her side win by two runs. Against East Delhi Riders, she made an unbeaten 34 off 21 balls and won the game with a six off the penultimate delivery. We took it till the end (against East Delhi). I just thought that I can't really lose from this point. I have to win this. I have come so far in this match. At that ball, I think our bowlers started coming in as batters. There were no more batters that could hit sixes. So, at that ball, I thought we needed a boundary anyhow. Then, I would go for a six only because if I ran a single, then we would probably lose the match. Its because the last batter would not be able to hit a six. After that, I just went for it. Thankfully, it connected and then went for a six, she recalled. The pattern has led to Samaira being in good form. Playing for Delhi in the Under-19 Women's T20 Trophy, she scored 162 runs in seven innings at a strike rate of 216. She was out only three times, while averaging 54, and hitting 14 fours and 12 sixes. In the Under-19 Women's T20 Challenger Trophy, against Team A, Team D side was reeling at 27/3 after eight overs. Samaira came in and hit 78 off 44 balls, hitting six fours and as many sixes, and carried them to 137/6. Against Team B, chasing at more than 10 runs an over, she made an unbeaten 24 off 12 balls, with two fours and as many sixes. In between, Samaira found time to attend two WPL trials - for Mumbai Indians in Mumbai and for Gujarat Giants in Bengaluru. offered only an open net session. Bengaluru was different. At Mumbai Indians, we had an open net session. I could not really get a chance to talk to the coaches. Gujarat Giants, however, they really took notice of me and my six-hitting abilities there in the camp. All of them gave me really positive feedback and a few points to work on which I am working on now. They also took notice of my bowling there. So, the bowling coach, PT, Pravin (Tambe) sir, he really saw that I could also bowl and I had good potential to be a bowler as well. That's why I think now they've picked me. But it was amazing to be part of that camp, she said. Her fielding skills too were noticed by GG coaching staff. We just had one match simulation. I think I stopped one or two boundaries. I don't know if it was that noticeable, but I gave my 100 percent. People who watched her over two days of trials said she struck the ball as hard as anyone present, and that her fielding stood out as compared to other players. Samaira credits the DDCA, and its president Rohan Jaitley, for helping women players get a noticeable platform via DPL. I have been so grateful to DDCA, honestly. They have given us so many opportunities for youngsters to showcase their talent. Now WPL scouts are coming in to watch our games and then kids are getting selected. This time, I think 4-5 people from Delhi are in the WPL. It really makes a difference. So, I am really grateful to DDCA. Rohan Jaitley sir has made so many efforts for women to also be at the same level as men. Like, giving them the same opportunities, playing in the same field and I am really grateful to them. They have actually given us so much exposure. She knows how quickly praise can unsettle a young player. I always think about my roots and where I have come from and where I am now. It really humbles me a lot. I think about those low times that I had when nobody was there except my family and my coaches. It really just makes me feel so much gratitude for everybody who has been there. Her parents, she says, are proud but rarely show it. I think its because they don't show it to me because then they think that I will be really happy about it and not focus on other things. So, they just want to keep me grounded. That's why they just act normal. When nerves build, she dabbles in painting and drawing. Music calms her too - before every match, the last song she hears before stepping off the bus and playing a game has to be 52 Bars by Punjabi singer Karan Aujla. The pure wisdom in young blood reflects in Samairas Instagram bio: Love to play cricket. Beneath it sits a line from the legendary Rahul Dravid You dont play for revenge but play for respect and pride. Samairas next test may pull her away from the WPL, if she is picked for the Under-19 World Cup. But Samaira does not see a conflict, as it will be the first step towards fulfilling her fathers dream. If I also get to be in the U19 World Cup squad, it would actually be so amazing. I feel like I have a duty to my country if I get selected in the U19 World Cup. But right now, all I am thinking about is I just keep performing wherever I go and God will look after the rest. Samairas next test may pull her away from the WPL, if she is picked for the Under-19 World Cup. But Samaira does not see a conflict, as it will be the first step towards fulfilling her fathers dream.
