Lakshmi Mittal, Adar Poonawalla Seal $1.65 Billion Rajasthan Royals IPL Deal
Indian steel magnate Lakshmi N Mittal and family, alongside vaccine billionaire Adar Poonawalla, have struck a $1.65 billion deal for Indian Premier League franchise Rajasthan Royals, a joint statement said on Sunday. The IPL is the world's richest cricket tournament and mixes sport and show business in a glitzy format. It is broadcast around the world and features top international stars, with some teams fronted by Bollywood superstars. The Mittal family will own about 75 percent of the franchise following completion, with Poonawalla holding around 18 percent, the statement said. The remainder will stay with approved existing investors, including seller Manoj Badale. As well as the IPL team, Rajasthan Royals also owns Paarl Royals in South Africa and Barbados Royals in the Caribbean. The transaction consideration is approximately $1.65 billion and represents the enterprise value of Rajasthan Royals' men's franchise, Paarl Royals and Barbados Royals, the statement said. Rajasthan have not won a trophy since 2008, when late Australian great Shane Warne led them to the inaugural title. I love cricket and my family is from Rajasthan, so there is no IPL team that I would rather be part of than the Rajasthan Royals, Mittal said in a statement. Poonawalla said he looked forward to supporting the franchise's long-term growth. Rajasthan Royals is a premier IPL franchise with a strong legacy, he said. Badale, who has been involved with the Royals since their inception, will remain a shareholder and join the board alongside the new investors. We are delighted to welcome the Mittal Family and Adar Poonawalla as the new owners of the Rajasthan Royals, he said. Their passion for cricket, their connection to Rajasthan and India, and their long-term ambition for the franchise make them ideal custodians. The announcement comes after a group of investors, including US asset management giant Blackstone, bought reigning IPL champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru for $1.77 billion in March.

IPL 2026: Watching Virat, You Understand The Art Of Chasing, Says Bethell On Learning Curve At RCB
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengalurus young all-rounder Jacob Bethell says observing seasoned campaigners like Virat Kohli has helped him grasp the nuances of chasing in T20 cricket, as the Englishman continues to grow into his role in the IPL. Now in his second season with the franchise, the 23-year-old reflected on his journey from Barbados to one of the biggest stages in world cricket. I grew up in Barbados, always with a bat and ball. Around 1012, I started taking it seriously. I moved to England for school, progressed to Warwickshire, and signed my first contract in 2021. A stress fracture set me back, but I came back strong, earned an England call-up, and then arrived in Bengaluru, Bethell said, outlining his path to the IPL. Adjusting to the attention that comes with playing in India has been a unique experience for the youngster. The limelight is a funny thing, life is still the same, but when people want to watch you play, its a privilege. I dont know how many people in India would be calling me Starboy. Its pretty incredible, he added. Bethell admitted that stepping into the IPL required a shift in mindset, particularly given the pace and intensity of the competition. When I got to RCB, I was curious about the experience. Watching Virat, Rajat, and speaking to DK, I realised the game shifts here. Its played at a high tempo; you have to be aggressive and brave, he noted. Elaborating on Kohlis influence, Bethell highlighted the importance of composure in run chases. Watching Virat chase, you understand the art of batting, how to control a chase and stay not out. Its about shifting gears based on the situation, he observed, pointing to the value of adaptability in high-pressure scenarios. He also spoke about the deep-rooted cricket culture in India, which he believes contributes to players development. People here love talking about cricket. Its more hands-on, with more information shared. The passion and volume of cricket at a young age is incredible, Bethell said. Working alongside experienced coaches has further sharpened his game awareness. Andy observes and speaks only when needed; you listen when he does. DK is excellent at spotting things and identifying scoring areas quickly, he remarked, referring to head coach Andy Flower and mentor Dinesh Karthik. Looking ahead, Bethell emphasised his desire to keep improving in the tournament. I wanted to be better than last year. Whether you play a few games or many, its about hunger. This is the marquee tournament, if you dont improve here, when will you? he said. He also recalled the intensity of playing in front of RCBs passionate fanbase. Walking out with Virat, hearing the crowd, it was loud. You have to stay completely switched on, he added. Backing the youngster, head coach Andy Flower praised Bethells temperament and potential. My first sight of Bethell was in the Under-19 World Cup, a very talented batsman with real flair. We targeted him straight away. Hes got a mature cricketing brain and wont be cowed or bullied by anyone, which is a trait you see in top players, Flower said. He also recalled the intensity of playing in front of RCBs passionate fanbase. Walking out with Virat, hearing the crowd, it was loud. You have to stay completely switched on, he added. Also Read: Live Cricket Score As Bethell continues to adapt and evolve, his exposure to high-level cricket and mentorship within the RCB setup appears to be shaping him into a confident and versatile performer.

IPL 2026: RCB Opener Phil Salt Returns To England For Scans After Finger Injury
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) opener Phil Salt has flown back to England for scans on his injured finger which has sidelined him for the sides last three IPL 2026 matches. In Salts absence, RCB have got his England compatriot Jacob Bethell to partner with Virat Kohli at the top of the order. Salt, 29, damaged a finger on his left hand while diving to save a boundary during RCB's defeat to Delhi Capitals at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on April 18. As per a report in ESPNCricinfo, Salt, who holds a central contract with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), returned home at the request of the national team's management to undergo further assessment. Both player and franchise remain hopeful that the finger will heal soon enough for Salt to return to India this month, with RCB aiming to defend the title that they won for the first time last season. RCB would be eligible to sign a replacement for Salt under IPL regulations in the event that the injury is deemed season-ending, but they are expected to give him every opportunity to recover, further said the report. Salt had provided a significant spark at the top of the order for RCB by amassing 202 runs across six innings at an impressive strike rate of 168.33 before the finger injury forced him out of the lineup. RCB would be eligible to sign a replacement for Salt under IPL regulations in the event that the injury is deemed season-ending, but they are expected to give him every opportunity to recover, further said the report.

The Art of Living and HDFC ERGO Build Job-Ready Graduates: A Practical Skills Initiative
Many graduates step out of university unprepared for the realities of the workplace. In early 2026, an initiative across Tamil Nadu and Bengaluru set out to change that - not through lengthy courses, but through a practical, hands-on approach to job readiness. Through a CSR partnership with HDFC ERGO, The Art of Living Social Projects launched the Employability & Workplace Readiness Program under its Vidya project. Designed as a 20-hour intervention with real impact, the programme equipped young graduates with the skills they actually need at work. Future-ready in progress The Gap We All Acknowledge, but Rarely Address Well India produces millions of graduates each year. Yet employers keep pointing to the same issue: A degree doesnt necessarily translate into workplace readiness. Students often struggle with: Communication Financial awareness Workplace expectations Work stress and pressure This programme didnt sidestep the problem - it went straight at it. Not just training. Preparation for real life. What set the programme apart was its emphasis on application over theory. It did not treat employability as a checklist; it approached it as a mindset, preparing students not just to secure jobs, but to handle them effectively. Less lecturing. More doing - role plays, discussions, real-world scenarios. Students engaged in : Stress management through breathing, meditation, and mindfulness Professional communication and interpersonal skills Workplace discipline and productivity Basics of banking, insurance, and financial planning Sales, negotiation, and relationship management Small Programme. Real Reach. The target was 400 students. The outcome: 370 trained in Tamil Nadu, and 31 in Karnataka. One striking detail: 67% of participants were women, reflecting strong female participation in skill-building initiatives. Students came from diverse academic backgrounds - BBA, B.Com, BA, and BSc - but shared a common need: clarity and confidence about stepping into the workforce. What Actually Changed The numbers matter. The shifts matter more. Students reported : Greater confidence in speaking and presenting A clearer understanding of money and financial planning Enhanced resilience (stress management) through simple, proven breathing techniques Increased self-awareness and discipline A realistic view of workplace expectations For someone stepping into their first job, thats transformative. Working within constraints Looking Ahead As India continues to grapple with the employability gap, scalable, focused interventions like this offer a way forward. Because bridging the gap between education and employment doesnt always require reinventing the system. Sometimes, it just means preparing people better for the world theyre about to enter. About The Art of Living Social Projects Inspired by Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, The Art of Living Social Projects operates across India in collaboration with the Government of India, leading corporates, and local communities. The organisation undertakes large-scale initiatives in water conservation, natural farming, afforestation, environmental protection, free education, womens empowerment, and rural development, among other focus areas.

Amanjots Absence From T20 WC A Big Blow, Nandnis Rise Encouraging, Says Muzumdar
IISM Degree Distribution Ceremony: India head coach Amol Muzumdar admitted that seam-bowling all-rounder Amanjot Kaurs absence from the 2026 Womens T20 World Cup is a major setback for the team but expressed confidence in uncapped pacer Nandni Sharmas emergence in the next few months. The Womens T20 World Cup squad was picked on Saturday and the selectors chose Nandni for the mega event as well as three T20Is against England and one-off Test at the Lords in July, especially with Amanjot and Kashvee Gautam ruled out due to injuries. She is injured and it is very difficult to replace somebody like Amanjot. She has been doing consistently well for India, we will miss her for sure but injuries are part of the game. She has had a bad one (back injury), and she will be out of cricket for at least four-five months. I hope she recovers well and comes back stronger. She is difficult to replace but that is the way it goes, Muzumdar said to reporters on the sidelines of the IISM Degree Distribution Ceremony here on Sunday. Nandni made heads turn by picking 17 wickets for Delhi Capitals in WPL 2026, including being first Indian pacer to take a hat-trick. She also went to Rising Stars Womens Asia Cup in Bangkok, before being ruled out due to injury. Nandani has been a great player for us throughout the WPL. To be honest, when we got her, we didnt know what to expect; we knew she had the talent. When she came on to the bigger stage of WPL in front of the world, the way she delivered, not just that five-wicket haul, every single game she was consistent. I know this team, it is going to welcome her, prepare her well and there is a lot of experience in this team and that is going to get the best out of her, added an upbeat Muzumdar. He also stressed on the importance of the upcoming camp of the womens team at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru starting on May 10, before the side leaves for England on May 22. It has always been an integral part of this team. We believe in preparing well for every challenge that is in front of us. I believe this team is on the right track and we would be hoping to have a very good camp before we set off for the World Cup. Travelling to England is always a challenge but this set of players is ready for it.
