Punjab Kings Wrap Up Four-day Off-season Conditioning Camp In Bengaluru
Indian Premier League: Punjab Kings on Friday said they have concluded a four-day off-season physical preparation camp aimed at sharpening player fitness and recovery ahead of the upcoming domestic season and their next Indian Premier League (IPL) campaign. The camp, conducted in collaboration with Stance Health from September 14 to 17, brought together several key franchise players including Shashank Singh, Priyansh Arya, Pyla Avinash, and Vishal Nishad. The sessions prioritised athletic readiness, integrating customized strength and conditioning routines, mobility drills, structured nutrition plans, and advanced recovery protocols. The short camp came after a skill-focused camp held in New Chandigarh last month, with the franchise planning further specialized training modules across the country as part of a year-round preparation cycle. This is the first fitness camp that has taken place this year. Everyone feels that the IPL is a three-month tournament, but it is not. It is a proper 12-month commitment for players competing at this level. If you want to compete with the best in one of the worlds top leagues, you have to work that hard. This camp is focused entirely on fitness, diet, and training, and we are making sure to tick all the boxes well ahead of the season, Shashank said in a statement by the franchise. Highlighting the structured daily routine, lower-order batting all-rounder Shashank added, In the morning we start with mobility and gym work, followed by a team lunch. In the evening we move into conditioning, and we finish the day with pool or recovery sessions. That routine gives us quality time together, and that is how we grow both as individuals and as a unit. Building strong bonds off the field is just as vital as our performance on it. Left-handed opener Arya noted that tailored physical management and rapid recovery still remain crucial factors for sustained performance. As the season approaches, our focus is to get as much quality training as possible and achieve peak physical condition. The facilities here, especially the dedicated physio support and strength and conditioning programmes, are tailored specifically for our individual needs. In modern cricket, fast and efficient recovery is what makes the real difference over a long season. He also praised the franchises active involvement in terms of player development during the off-season. The IPL might be played across three months, but Punjab Kings actively tracks our progress and supports us for the full nine months of the off-season. Whether we need to train in Mumbai, Bengaluru, or attend camps in Chandigarh, the franchise arranges everything within a day. Having that level of backing throughout the year gives a player immense confidence, he added. He also praised the franchises active involvement in terms of player development during the off-season. The IPL might be played across three months, but Punjab Kings actively tracks our progress and supports us for the full nine months of the off-season.

Ravneet Bittu claims his convoy attacked near Batala, accuses AAP workers
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Sep 18 (IANS) BJP leader and former Union Minister Ravneet Singh Bittu on Friday alleged that his cavalcade was attacked near Batala in Punjab while he was on his way to Pathankot to participate in the launch of the party's 'Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra'. Bittu claimed that a group of people surrounded his convoy, hurled eggs and tomatoes, and damaged the windows of escort vehicles. He also alleged that some of those involved were carrying weapons. The incident reportedly took place on the Amritsar-Pathankot highway. State BJP President Kewal Dhillon strongly condemned the attack on Bittu.

We will take our fight against drugs to its logical conclusion. I also urge the Punjab DGP to take immediate action against those responsible. Instead of functioning like AAP volunteers, the Punjab Police should perform its role as a professional police force, the BJP state chief added. In a video, Bittu alleged that a group of more than 200 people surrounded and disrupted his cavalcade, pelting his vehicles with stones and eggs. He claimed that those involved were supporters of the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and alleged that some police personnel were facilitating the confrontation.
