'Can't Say Anything Bad About Our Effort,' GG Coach Klinger Reflects On Dropped Catches Vs MI
After Sophie Devine: Gujarat Giants head coach Michael Klinger admitted his side paid a heavy price for repeated lapses in the field but stressed that the teams overall commitment and preparation remain strong despite defeat against Mumbai Indians. GG suffered their first loss of the WPL 2026 season, with an uncharacteristically untidy fielding display undoing much of the good work they had shown earlier in the tournament. MI skipper Harmanpreet was dropped on three occasions, and several misfields and overthrows compounded their problems, a stark contrast to the sharp standards they had set in their opening two matches. Reflecting on the performance, Klinger noted that the Giants were largely solid for most of the innings before things unravelled late on. We fielded really well in the first couple of games. And probably in the first 14-15 overs we fielded quite well and then all those dropped catches came in the back end in the last five-six overs, Klinger said at the post-match press conference. He acknowledged how costly such mistakes can be against world-class batters, but he was careful not to question his players work ethic. It's difficult when you give a player as good as Harmanpreet three chances, but at the same time, the effort I can't say anything bad about our effort in the field and our work with training. They've been working extremely hard with our fielding coach Sarah Taylor and all the other coaches. So certainly no issue with the effort. It's difficult when you put good players down, catches down, and so it's something we'll keep working on. We've worked on our fielding really hard and we've had two good performances and probably one performance that's not quite at our best. Earlier, GG made a tactical adjustment to their batting order after all-rounder Anushka Sharma was ruled out with a hand injury sustained in the win over Delhi Capitals. With Anushka unavailable, Kanika Ahuja was promoted to No. 3, a significant change given that she had batted as low as No. 8 in the previous match and hadnt featured in the season opener. The decision proved inspired. After Sophie Devines early dismissal, Ahuja counterattacked with a fluent 35 off 18 deliveries, striking four boundaries and two sixes to inject momentum into the innings. Klinger explained the rationale for the move and praised Ahujas execution. We probably had a couple of options in that (No. 3) spot. Once we realised that Anushka was going to be unavailable for a game or two, and we felt Kanika had been training really well. (She's) another left-hander up the top who can play pace and spin well, and I thought she played brilliantly today, Klinger said. He added that clarity about her role had helped her play with freedom. We spoke to her about playing some strong shots, not trying to over-hit the ball, and I felt she did that really well, both to pace and spin, hitting through and over the field brilliantly. She started so well and still had about 19 (17.2) overs left to bat, and I think there's even a lot of upside there and she can get some even bigger scores for us if she gets that opportunity down the track. We spoke to her about playing some strong shots, not trying to over-hit the ball, and I felt she did that really well, both to pace and spin, hitting through and over the field brilliantly.

Mission Billion Summit to Launch in Delhi; Aims to Catalyze 100 'Non-Profit Unicorns' by 2030
India has built 100+ startup unicorns. The summit asks a parallel question: how can we build 100 non-profit unicorns by 2030 to solve challenges across welfare, education, and governance? Change Engine to release the first Ease of Doing Non-profits report, highlighting the critical gap in innovation capital. A founder-first gathering of 200+ non-profit leaders, philanthropists, and policymakers. Change Engine announced the Mission Billion Summit on January 29, 2026, to be held at the India International Centre, Delhi. Designed as Indias premier founder-first platform, the summit will gather over 200 non-profit founders, philanthropists and policymakers with a singular goal: building 100 non-profit unicorns by 2030 - organisations impacting over a million people. Change Engine's Mission Billion Summit aims to build 100 non-profit unicorns by 2030 Indias social sector stands at a critical inflection point. A new generation of ambitious founders is emerging, determined to solve complex social problems at India scale. While the patient capital and catalytic ecosystems required to take these founders from pilot to million-plus impact are beginning to form, the Mission Billion Summit aims to bring these fragmented pieces together. Speaking about the summit, Varun Aggarwal, Co-founder, Change Engine , said " We need a movement towards non-profit unicorns in India, much like the startup movement a decade ago. Mission Billion Summit will bring together all stakeholders to solve our most pressing developmental challenges. With founders at the centre, we are creating an ecosystem where you can move beyond pilots and master the playbook to reach national-level impact using evidence-driven interventions with the right collaborators . Shubham Bansal, Co-founder, Change Engine , added, " Mission Billion summit serves as a startup school for non-profits, providing the actionable toolkits - from how to partner with government to building evidence to raising capital. Our goal is to empower founders to build for the entire nation, not just a single zip code. The summit is structured across two parallel tracks featuring 25+ speakers, 12+ sessions, and 3 workshop-style masterclasses designed to address the core challenges of non-profit scale: Building Nonprofit Unicorns : A startup-school style track covering topics such as evidence-building beyond RCTs, fundraising and innovation capital, partnering with government, and community-led scale. Tackling Wicked Problems : Focused conversations on what works (and what doesn't) across key domains, including welfare and social protection, education, and governance, bringing together practitioners and thinkers working at the cutting edge of these challenges. Each track will feature deep-dive sessions and masterclasses designed to surface actionable insights, cross-sector partnerships, and scalable innovations. A key highlight of the summit will be the launch of Change Engines first report in the Ease of Doing Non-profits series. Based on a first-of-its-kind survey of social entrepreneurs, the report identifies the structural barriers preventing high-potential non-profits from reaching 'unicorn' scale. The preliminary findings reveal a systemic lack of innovation capital - the flexible, high-risk funding required for non-profits to experiment and scale. The summit will see participation from prominent philanthropists, including Sanjeev Bikhchandani (Info Edge), Aakanksha Gulati (ACT Grants), Murugan Vasudevan (Veddis Foundation), Chetan (Tech Mahindra Foundation), Riti Mohapatra (The Bridgespan Group), amongst others. It will also feature senior leaders from organisations that have successfully scaled impact, such as Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy, Central Square Foundation, Avanti Fellows, Rocket Learning, Agami, CORO, Sneha, XKDR, amongst others. Mission Billion Summit deepens Change Engine's commitment to building a thriving ecosystem for mission-driven founders by providing the capital, knowledge, and partnerships needed to transform pilots into national solutions. Change Engine website . About Change Engine Change Engine supports exceptional founders in building non-profit unicorns - organisations that can meaningfully impact a million people. We do this through our unique sandbox for non-profits, which includes support for leveraging data and evidence, partnering with the government, applying product and tech expertise, and deploying catalytic seed capital.
