We're sorry, we're English: Morgan Stanley executive's 4-hour Bengaluru traffic ordeal goes viral
Niyati Koustubh Lokur: When all-rounder Prema Rawat walked out to bat for Uttarakhand against Hyderabad in the Senior Womens T20 Trophy game in Pune on Monday, there was not much time left. She came in to bat at number four in the 18th over, and Uttarakhands total was 129/2. At that time, the main objective for Prema and Raghvi Bist was to take Uttarakhand past 150 at least. But what followed next was pure carnage in fourteen balls, Prema notched up a sensational half-century. She ended unbeaten after hitting six fours and four sixes at a strike rate of 357, as Uttarakhand posted 187/2. That 14-ball fifty from Prema sits on top of the list for fastest fifty in womens T20 cricket, one ball quicker than the previous best of the 15-ball mark shared by Marie Kelly (Warwickshire, 2022), Fatima Sana (Pakistan, 2026) and Laura Harris, who did it twice, for Otago in 2025 and Surrey in 2026. With reverse hits, as well as loft and whip making appearances, Prema, who chose cricket over hockey in her formative years, hit Sakshi Rao for three boundaries in a row, and then took 18 off an over of Vanka Pooja and finished with 6, 4, 4, 6 against Kunchala Niteesha on the last four balls of the innings. Prema was still not done - she removed G. Kavyasree and N. Kranthi Reddy with her leg-spin to finish with 2-12, as Uttarakhand restricted Hyderabad to 98/8 and won by 89 runs. Prema and the Uttarakhand camp were unaware about her making the world record till match referee Niyati Koustubh Lokur said about it after the game ended. At the presentation ceremony, the referee came and gave the Player of the Match award and told me that it was a world record to get a fifty in 14 balls. Thats how all team members and coaches came to know that it was a world record. I felt normal on hearing that. But yes, I felt good that it was a world record, Prema told IANS in an exclusive conversation from Pune. Prema celebrated this landmark feat by making a trip to the cinema hall and watching Rajinikanths latest Tamil flick Jailer 2. As someone who likes watching south Indian movies, she felt the movie made for a very good watch. Asked whether it was a treat to herself after getting the world record, Prema replied in the affirmative. Straightforward and very grounded, Prema said there was no grand design in her mind when she walked in to bat. The plan was simple - I wanted to play according to the situation. I knew that when I went, there were a few overs left. So, I wanted to score as many runs as possible for the team. I wasnt thinking about a big score or a record. I was just focussing on every ball and trying to give my best to the team. The boundaries she hit were not at all random. It was completely pre-planned. I was just analysing which bowler I should take on or against which bowler I should play in a certain way and against which bowler, where I can score boundaries in better areas. When I felt confident, I decided to play my natural game and take the chances, said Prema. She was equally quick to share the credit with Raghvi, who has played two T20Is for India and made an unbeaten 72 off 50 balls. It was simple. We were motivating each other. We believed in each other. The higher the teams score, it will be easier to defend those runs, especially for the bowlers. I felt that it was a complete batting pitch because the ball was coming on the bat very well. I would like to thank Raghvi for my knock, as because of her innings, I was able to score such a big score and make a world record. So, really, really thankful to Raghvi as well. The switch from batting to bowling, Prema said, was very simple. I kept things simple. Just staying in the present. I batted once and forgot about it as I knew I had to bowl because the team needed my bowling. So, just focusing on my bowling and hitting the good length and line was my focus and to do my best for the team. Yes, that happened and I felt really good. Asked whether she had sensed a big day coming for her, Prema denied having any intuition. No, I had only one simple plan. I dont want to think much before going into a game. I have experienced throughout the cricket journey that when I think a lot about doing well, the opposite has happened with me. So, I dont want to think much. I want to keep things simple and just want to stay in the present. If a chance comes, I want to bat as per the merit of the ball. If bowling comes, I want to execute my plans and do nothing else. 2026 has been a big year for Prema, who made her India T20I debut in June during the T20 World Cup game against South Africa in Manchester and has seven wickets in as many games so far. Not only for me, but for all the girls, all the players have a dream and I got that chance. So, first of all, truly grateful for that opportunity. At that level, cricket is something different. Competition is very strong. So, I have enjoyed every moment there. From getting hit for a six to taking wickets for the team, she said. Her World Cup call came when she was busy preparing for India As matches against England A and didnt follow any news about the tournament. It was only when the India A team manager phoned to tell her she had been named as the replacement for the injured Shreyanka Patil, that Prema made the one-two hours journey to join the Indian team in Manchester. They say that you get sensation- it was going on just like that. But it was good. I had the same plan there dont think much. Whenever you get a chance, give your best. It didnt go as planned, but its okay its a part of the game. Think about it and just leave it there. In the present, what can I do to make the future games better? I focused on that, she said. The standout moment for Prema in India colours came against Pakistan in the Asia Cup group stage, where she took 3-9 in Dubai. That experience was very special for me because everyone wants to play international cricket. That too, if you perform so well against Pakistan, as playing against Pakistan is always a big occasion. So, there is and was pressure. But I believe that it was a good pressure and positive pressure for me as that was energising me every time during every ball, every over, during fielding or bowling. I had a simple plan to hit good length and line and just trust your stock ball. So, I did that and because of that, I got three wickets. I felt good that I was able to contribute to the teams victory, she said. Her camaraderie with left-arm spinner N Sree Charani also made for a delightful watch. Cherry, obviously, is the number one T20 bowler in the world. I have a good bond with her and whatever happens, the ups and downs, we share it with each other. Whether on field, or off field, whether its bowling, or doing some comedy things, pulling each others leg, and making fun of each other - I have a good bond with her. Prema traces her current good form to being a regular in the India A team, including winning the Rising Stars Womens Asia Cup earlier this year in Thailand. The India A coaches mapped Premas strong and weak zones across batting, bowling and fielding. The chase of 363 in the 50-over series decider against Australia A in Mohali, she said, was crazy. India A was a very big turning point for me. From there, I got the confidence that I can play at a higher level as well. I can change my mindset and analyse the situation. I can execute my plan B or plan C immediately. Obviously, from there, I got to know what areas I should improve in. After that, I worked harder and believed more in myself. Prema was part of Royal Challengers Bengalurus title-winning sides in the 2025 and 2026 WPL, with three wickets in six games, and has been retained for 2027. Playing in front of such big crowds, she said, was an education in itself. It feels good. First of all, thanks to RCB for retaining me. My role will be the same as what I am doing here and in the Indian team. I will have the same role in RCB if I get a chance to be in the playing eleven and how much I can contribute to the team. I have learnt a lot from being in RCB. I have gained confidence, especially how to handle various situations because, coming from domestic cricket and playing for RCB is such a big jump. Like, its a big franchise and it has such a big fan base. So, I have also experienced that aspect. I have also learnt how to handle that pressure. I have also shared the dressing room with many experienced players and got to know about their hard work, discipline and pressure handling skills. The environment there is very positive and everyone supports each other. Back home, her record 14-ball fifty came as a surprise. Yes, they are feeling proud. Its a bit shocking for them as I am an all-rounder and kahi na kahi achanak se hi hua hai (they think that this has happened all of a sudden). They also got to know about it all of a sudden, just like how I found out. They were shocked, but were proud of me at the same time. At times, they do say, Sarkari job lelo karke (Take up a government job). But its okay thats not important for me right now. Cricket is important to me. But overall, the family mahaul (atmosphere) is very good. Prema also credited the womens Uttarakhand Premier League (UPL) for the exposure and chance to play in televised games. Its very important because as far as I know, I got noticed from there by many people through the opportunities I got in the state T20 league. It gave me a good platform to show my talent and get noticed. First of all, I would like to thank the Cricket Association of Uttarakhand for the womens UPL. Playing in the league helped me understand my game better and prepare me for the bigger opportunities. The young players coming from this league are very good and get to show their talent and be noticed. Former Uttarakhand coach Anagha Deshpande was another big influence on Prema. Anagha mam was with us for a long time. She had been very supportive and calm throughout the games. She helped a lot of players, whether it is on the field or off the field, as well as emotionally. Actually, she did a lot of work on us. She helped us a lot in how we can grow in various ways. Like, the more we talk, the more we will know about our game. The more we learn and tell each other about knowing and understanding our game and improving as players, she made us understand that.

Siddaramaiah sting row to impact Congress in 2028 polls too: Karnataka BJP
Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Nov 4 (IANS) Senior BJP leader and Leader of Opposition R. Ashoka on Wednesday claimed that the alleged sting operation involving former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had exposed the internal discord within Congress and contributed to the party's defeat in the recent Legislative Council elections. Siddaramaiah sting row to impact Congress in 2028 polls too, he underlined. Ashoka said that senior Congress leader and MLA K.N. Rajanna had himself predicted the adverse impact of the controversy on the party's electoral prospects. He alleged that the sting operation against Siddaramaiah was orchestrated by disgruntled Congress leaders and claimed that the former Chief Minister's supporters and voters had also turned against the party. The impact of this will be seen in the 2028 Assembly elections as well, Ashoka said. Launching a sharp attack on Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar, the BJP leader blamed the Congress government's alleged internal infighting and its policies for the party's electoral setback. Ashoka alleged that the government had repeatedly betrayed farmers, withdrawn pensions of vulnerable sections, senior citizens and persons with disabilities, and left several government departments without adequate funds. He also accused the government of mismanaging the state's finances and said the increase in milk and bus fares had added to the hardships of the people. People have realised that this administration is harmful to the state. The Congress will have to pay the price for this poor governance soon, Ashoka said. Taking a swipe at the Congress over the ongoing sting operation controversy, Ashoka said that while the party was currently facing a political storm over the issue, the people would carry out an operation against the government and throw it out of power during the elections. After the ruling Congress in Karnataka was defeated on all four seats in the recently held Legislative Council elections, a war of words erupted within the party on Tuesday between supporters of Siddaramaiah and Chief Minister Shivakumar. In the MLC elections, the NDA took home all four seats, as the BJP bagged three and the JD(S) won one. Former Minister and Congress MLA, K.N. Rajanna, a close associate of Siddaramaiah, said the controversy surrounding the sting operation had adversely affected the party's image and could have contributed to its poor performance in the MLC elections. However, Municipal Administration Minister H.C. Balakrishna, a supporter of Shivakumar, accused Rajanna and his son, a Congress MLC, of failing to work for the party's candidates and indulging in anti-party activities. He demanded disciplinary action against them.

Bengaluru-Chennai roots, H-1B fight: Suhas Subramanyam wins second term in US Congress
Digital Desk | Washington, Nov 4 (IANS) Suhas Subramanyam, the son of Tamil physicians whose mother is from Bengaluru and father grew up in Chennai and Secunderabad, was re-elected on Tuesday (local time) to represent Virginia's 10th Congressional District. The campaign is over, but the work is just beginning. I look forward to working with our community to deliver change in Washington, Subramanyam posted on X. My mom's from Bangalore. My dad's from Chennai and Secunderabad, and we have ties in India. I still have family in India, he said in an interview last year. His mother arrived at Dulles Airport in 1979, a story he has tied to the Northern Virginia district he represents. Dulles Airport here, and our district was their Ellis Island, he told CNBC-TV18. Born in Houston, Texas, in 1986, Subramanyam studied philosophy at Tulane University and earned a law degree from Northwestern University. He worked as an aide to Representative Suzanne Kosmas, clerked for Senator Dick Durbin on the Senate Judiciary Committee, where he worked on the DREAM Act, and served as a White House technology policy adviser under President Barack Obama from 2015. He has also worked as a lawyer, run a small technology business and volunteered as an emergency medical technician and firefighter, according to his campaign. In 2019, he became the first Indian American, first South Asian and first Hindu elected to the Virginia General Assembly. He served in the House of Delegates from 2020 to 2024 and briefly in the Virginia Senate before winning the US House seat vacated by Jennifer Wexton in 2024. In Congress, Subramanyam sits on the Oversight Committee, where he is the ranking member of the Subcommittee on Military and Foreign Affairs and also serves on the cybersecurity and information technology panel, as well as on the Science, Space and Technology Committee and the Ethics Committee, according to his House website. He has been a leading voice on issues watched closely by Indian Americans. He backs the Domestic Visa Renewal Modernization Act, part of a three-bill package that would let holders of H-1B, L, O and other visas renew them inside the United States. When the Trump administration imposed a $100,000 fee on new H-1B petitions, he said: This isn't immigration policy. This is economic sabotage. He co-signed an October 2025 letter to President Donald Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick warning about the H-1B proclamation. He has also criticised Trump's tariffs on India. Tariffs are a tax on the American people, he told the Hindustan Times, adding, I think Trump has handled the relationship with India poorly and India is a natural ally. I think the majority of Indian Americans still are Democrats, he said, warning that putting tariffs on India will not help his standing with Indian Americans. Subramanyam has also introduced the Responsible Data Center Siting Act. Congress must set reasonable guardrails around data centers, he wrote on X. He closed his campaign with a rally alongside Virginia Senators Tim Kaine and Mark Warner. Subramanyam and his wife, Miranda Pena Subramanyam, live with their two daughters in Loudoun County.

The Quantum Advance: A New Chapter in the Future of Computing
What if the next major advance in computing does not simply make machines faster, but helps humanity explore possibilities that have remained beyond the reach of conventional technology? This is the promise of quantum computing, a field that could open new possibilities in medicine, materials, energy and scientific knowledge. Computers have reshaped communication, learning and work. Supercomputers perform demanding scientific calculations. Now, scientists are exploring a form of computing that could open a chapter in this journey. A conventional computer stores information in units called bits. Each bit represents zero or one. A quantum computer uses a quantum bit, or qubit, whose behaviour follows quantum physics, the science of matter and energy at small scales. A qubit can exist in a combination of possible states, called superposition. Qubits can also share a special quantum connection, in which the state of one is linked to another. These properties allow quantum computers to approach specialised calculations differently from conventional machines. Quantum computers will not replace laptops, smartphones or supercomputers. Conventional machines will continue everyday tasks, while supercomputers will handle demanding calculations. Quantum systems are being developed for specific areas of research that require different approaches. The technologies may work together. One area is the study of molecules and materials. Their behaviour follows quantum physics, making some properties difficult to model. Quantum machines may eventually help researchers explore these systems. The potential of these systems is being explored across different areas of research. Making quantum computers more reliable is an important area of research. Qubits require carefully designed conditions to work reliably, so scientists are developing methods to improve their performance. These methods combine several physical qubits to form a more reliable unit known as a logical qubit. This work is part of ongoing efforts to improve the performance of quantum computers. Google's Willow processor showed progress in reducing errors in quantum computers. A study published in the journal Nature in 2025 demonstrated improved protection of quantum information using 101 qubits. In October 2026, Quantinuum reported another advance through its Helios system, achieving 99.9995 per cent accuracy in an experiment, or about five errors per million operations. Both developments are important steps towards making quantum computers more reliable. The area of research continues to develop, with scientists exploring ways to expand its capabilities and applications. Researchers have shaped the field. John Preskill of the California Institute of Technology works on quantum information and error correction. Peter Shor of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology developed a landmark quantum algorithm. At Harvard, Mikhail Lukin leads research involving quantum optics and information. In Japan, Yasunobu Nakamura directs the RIKEN Centre for Quantum Computing. Around the world, research centres bring together experts from universities, scientific institutions and industry to advance quantum computing, communication, sensing and materials. Their collaboration is helping develop new ideas, knowledge and technologies. The United Kingdom's National Quantum Computing Centre helps develop and test quantum computers. Oxford leads QCi3, a research hub focused on scalable, interconnected systems. At Cambridge, the IonQ Quantum Innovation Centre opened in October 2026. The partnership also plans to bring a 256-qubit quantum computer to the university in the future. ETH Zurich advances quantum information theory. At Princeton, Nathalie de Leon studies defects in materials such as diamond that may support quantum information and sensing devices. Research in this field continues to explore new materials and improve the performance of quantum systems. Quantum computers may eventually help researchers study molecules and support the search for new medicines. They could help study materials for better batteries and more efficient technologies. Scientists are exploring possible applications in energy, transport and supply chains. Researchers continue to explore these applications and their potential benefits. Meanwhile, India is building its capabilities. Under the National Quantum Mission, four research hubs have been established. The Indian Institute of Science in Bengaluru hosts the Quantum Computing Hub. IIT Madras, with the Centre for Development of Telematics, hosts the Quantum Communication Hub. IIT Bombay leads the Quantum Sensing and Metrology Hub, while IIT Delhi hosts the Quantum Materials and Devices Hub. Indian companies are contributing to this field as well. Bengaluru-based QpiAI announced QpiAI-Indus in April 2025, a quantum computing system featuring 25 superconducting qubits. The company is among eight startups selected under the National Quantum Mission, coordinated by the Department of Science and Technology. The system brings together quantum processors, specialised systems to operate them, and software designed to work alongside conventional high-performance computers. Its launch marks a step in India's efforts to develop its own quantum computing capabilities. Quantum computing is also encouraging progress in digital technology. Researchers are developing new ways to make information systems more reliable and better prepared for the next generation of computing. These developments show how scientific research can support innovation and create new opportunities across different fields. The field continues to evolve as researchers work to improve the reliability and scale of these systems. With further research and development, the technology may gradually find wider applications in specialised areas of science and industry. The next era of computing will not be shaped by one kind of computer alone. Conventional machines will support everyday life, supercomputers will handle demanding calculations, and quantum systems may offer another approach to specialised areas of scientific research. The measure of this advance will not simply be the number of qubits inside a machine. It will be the discoveries they may help make possible: better medicines, improved materials, more efficient energy systems and new scientific insights. Every major scientific advance begins with curiosity. Quantum computing is giving researchers new ways to advance scientific knowledge. Its journey is still unfolding, inviting continued curiosity, patience and hope. The greatest achievement of computing will not be measured by the sophistication of machines, but by the lasting improvements they bring to human life. (The Author is a Columnist.

Prasidh Krishna Set To Fly To New Zealand After Getting Fitness Clearance From CoE
Rising Stars Asia Cup: Indian fast bowler Prasidh Krishna is set to fly to New Zealand after getting fitness clearance from the medical team at the Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru. IANS understands that Prasidh was put through match-simulation sessions held on November 1 and 2 and got clearance. After getting fit, Prasidh Krishna was to leave for New Zealand late tonight or early tomorrow morning. But hes already gone from India to reach New Zealand in time, a source tracking the development told IANS on Tuesday. Prasidh will now be available to turn out for India A in the third red-ball game against New Zealand A, happening at the Bert Sutcliffe Oval in Lincoln from November 7. The tall right-arm pacer was kept out of the first three matches of the five-game ODI series against New Zealand, starting in Eden Park, Auckland, on Wednesday, to give his hamstring more time to heal and build up his bowling load for the two Tests that follow. The clearance to Prasidh, who sustained the hamstring injury while bowling in the second ODI against the West Indies in Guwahati on September 30, comes as a timely boost for the Indian camp stretched on the fast-bowling front. Jasprit Bumrah has been rested for the entire ODI series with an eye to play both Tests in Wellington and Christchurch. Seam-bowling all-rounder Harshit Rana was ruled out of the series due to a left quadriceps strain and will mark his return via India A games in the Rising Stars Asia Cup in Doha later this month. Mohammed Siraj is expected to leave the ODI squad after the first three games to prepare for the two Tests, which will leave a raw attack led by Arshdeep Singh for the last two 50-over games against the Black Caps. Arshdeep has played 18 ODIs, while Gurnoor Brar, Anshul Kamboj, Auqib Nabi and Yash Thakur have just the experience of 11 games between them. Seam-bowling all-rounder Harshit Rana was ruled out of the series due to a left quadriceps strain and will mark his return via India A games in the Rising Stars Asia Cup in Doha later this month.
