Chess Olympiad: Erigaisi stunned by little-known Thai as Indian men start with a 3-1 win
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 17 (IANS) Defending champions India made a winning start in the 46th Chess Olympiad in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, but their 3-1 win over Thailand was marked by a stunning defeat for Arjun Erigaisi on the top board. Even though most of the top teams and rating favourites secured 4-0 wins against weaker teams in the Swiss League event, there were notable performances like that by Botswana, who played a fantastic match to hold a strong Brazil side 2-2 despite their players starting the match trailing their opponents by more than 400 Elo on each board. But Erigaisi's defeat to Thailands Prin Laohawirapap was the biggest upset of the day, even though reigning World Champion D Gukesh, Nihal Sarin and Vidit Gujrathi won their respective games to secure a 3-1 win for the 2024 winner in the Open section. Erigaisi had enjoyed the better position for much of the game, but a tactical oversight towards the end allowed Laohawirapap to turn the tables and secure a memorable win. With both players running short of time, Erigaisi faced an extremely tricky position. He needed to find the third move to defend against the Thai player's threats while keeping his extra pawn and winning chances. Instead, Erigaisi blundered and let his opponent unleash a dangerous sequence as his king came under attack. He tried to defend till 54 moves when Erigaisi resigned. On the other boards, Gukesh defeated Alriyami Faris Rashid, Sarin beat Kulpruethanon Thanadon, while Vidit Gujrathi defeated Khumnorkaew Tupfah. In other matches, Hosts Uzbekistan defeated Jamaica 4-0; top seed United States, playing without their top player Fabiano Caruana, beat Iraq 3.5-0.5; China blanked Uganda 4-0, as did Germany, Azerbaijan, France, Armenia and England among others. In the women's section, defending champions India blanked Dominican Republic 4-0 with Koneru Humpy, Vaishali Rameshbabu, Vantika Agrawal and Savitha Shri B winning their respective games. Uzbekistan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, China, the United States, Ukraine, Azerbaijan, France and Poland also won their respective matches 4-0.

'Series Going Well...India Will Win Third Match As Well,' Rajiv Shukla On Afghanistan T20Is
Afghanistan T20Is: Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) vice-president and MP Rajiv Shukla has expressed confidence that the Indian men's team will win the third T20I too and complete a clean sweep. India will take on Afghanistan in the third and final match of the T20I series after winning the first two matches played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. The series is going very well. We have already won the series, and we will win the third match as well, Rajiv Shukla told IANS on the sidelines of an event in New Delhi on Wednesday. With the series already secured, India will look to use the third and final T20I against Afghanistan as an opportunity to fine-tune their squad ahead of the Asian Games, with the Arun Jaitley Stadium set to host the contest on Thursday. The match comes after India produced virtually identical seven-wicket victories in the opening two games. They successfully chased targets of 157 and 160, respectively, leaving Afghanistan with little to show despite moments of individual brilliance. The second T20I followed a familiar pattern. Rahmanullah Gurbaz fell for a second straight duck before Ibrahim Zadrans 37 provided Afghanistan with some stability. Mohammad Nabi and Rashid Khan then added 48 for the sixth wicket, helping their side reach 159/8. Nitish Kumar Reddy and Arshdeep Singh claimed five wickets between them. Indias response was largely comfortable, with Sanju Samsons 57, Abhishek Sharmas 39 and Ishan Kishans unbeaten 38 guiding the hosts home. Meanwhile, on Wednesday, the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) hosted the Indian cricket team for a dinner at which the Indian players talked about their experience of playing Afghanistan, as well as their familiarity with their players.

Poverty Porn Posing As Photojournalism: Foreign Media at BRICS Summit Exposes West's Cliched View
India hosted the 18th BRICS Summit in New Delhi, bringing together 11 members representing roughly half the worlds population and a major share of global GDP. Leaders adopted a 45-page, 140-paragraph declaration covering West Asia, terrorism, trade, energy, AI and reform of global institutions. Yet several international outlets used photographs of cyclists, mopeds and everyday workers beside BRICS hoardings. The images were authentic. The editorial choices are now being questioned. Does repeatedly pairing Indias global ambitions with poverty imagery create a misleading ambition versus reality narrative? This report examines the summits actual diplomatic outcomes, the foreign-media framing, the old snake charmer stereotype and why Indias rise is still being viewed through a narrow visual lens.

Work of police and courts forms one continuous chain in administration of justice: CJI Surya Kant
New Delhi, Sep 16: Chief Justice of India (CJI) Surya Kant on Wednesday said the work of police and the work of the courts form one continuous chain in the administration of justice. Speaking at the launch of a book written by former Indian Police Service (IPS) officer O P Mishra, titled Beyond the Uniform: Duty, Discretion and Public Trust, the CJI said an FIR recorded with care or an investigation conducted with fairness strengthens the possibility of justice being done in court. Conversely, no court, however conscientious, can fully undo the harm caused when the first steps of the process themselves are compromised, he added. The CJI also commended police for the smooth conduct of the 18th BRICS Summit and praised the remarkable effort behind the scenes like officers securing routes and venues, coordinating traffic, protecting places of stay and maintaining vigilance through the night. The work of the police and the work of the courts form one continuous chain in the administration of justice. The judiciary inherits, quite literally, what the police places before it, the CJI said. Former Delhi police commissioner Neeraj Kumar and Sanjaya Baru, who was the adviser to former prime minister Manmohan Singh, also spoke on the occasion. The CJI said duty for police must mean fidelity not only to the words of the law, but also to the purpose for which the law entrusts power to a police officer. The authority to investigate, to arrest, to regulate movement and to maintain public order is neither an ornament of office nor an end in itself. It is ultimately a responsibility held on behalf of the people, he said. The CJI said police duty does not commence only when a crime has been committed, a crowd has gathered or an emergency has already arisen. It begins much earlier: in preparation, in the gathering of information, in coordination between agencies, in anticipating points of vulnerability and in ensuring that the machinery of law is ready before the moment of need arrives. Indeed, some of the finest police work is precisely that which prevents a difficult situation from ever becoming a crisis, he said. Justice Kant also said if the society expects police personnel to act at all hours with courage, composure and sensitivity, it must give them the conditions in which those qualities can flourish. Proper training, modern investigative resources, responsible leadership, reasonable working conditions and attention to the physical and emotional well-being of personnel are not concerns separate from citizen-friendly policing, but rather its essential foundations, he said.
ECI to meet two Trinamool factions tomorrow to decide on party name and symbol
Digital Desk | Kolkata, Sep 16 (IANS) The Election Commission of India (ECI) will meet delegations of the two factions of the Trinamool Congress in New Delhi on Thursday and a decision on the party's name and symbol may be taken by the poll panel following the meeting. First, the ebel but majority faction led by the party's expelled legislator Ritabrata Banerjee will meet the full bench of the ECI at 3 p.m. on Thursday at ECI's headquarters at Ashoka Road in New Delhi. Thereafter, the party's original but minority faction led by former West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and her nephew Abhishek Banerjee will meet the ECI's full bench at the same venue in New Delhi on Thursday within a gap of an hour at 4 p.m. Although in its communications to both the Trinamool Congress factions on Wednesday, the ECI Secretary Ashwani Kumar Mohal had not stated the agendas for the meetings, ECI insiders said that the discussions will be in relation to the arguments of both the delegations in favour of their claims for the party name and symbol. Each faction in the meeting will be represented by a five-member delegation. The Commission will decide on the fate of the party name and symbol only after hearing both the sides. Both the meetings are extremely crucial considering that bypolls for the Nandigram Assembly Constituency in East Midnapore district and the Rejinagar Assembly Constituency are scheduled on October 6. Already both the factions have fielded candidates for the bypolls from both the Assembly constituencies, the last date of filing nominations which was held on Wednesday. Rabiul Alam Chowdhury is the candidate from the Mamata Banerjee-led faction in the Trinamool Congress from Rejinagar, Sheikh Saifuddin is the candidate from the Ritabrata-led faction from the same constituency. On the other hand, in case of Nandigram, Sanchita Pradhan Dey, is the candidate from the Mamata Banerjee-led faction in the Trinamool Congress, Mohammad Etesamul Haque is the candidate from the Ritabrata-led faction from the constituency.

Govt looks at expanding use of steel from ship recycling
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 16 (IANS) A joint meeting was held on Wednesday under the chairmanship of Steel and Heavy Industries Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy and Ports, Shipping, and Waterways Minister Sarbananda Sonowal, on expanding the usage of steel obtained from recycling of ships. The discussions were held focusing on expanding the application of recycled ship steel to additional sectors, with a view to enhancing value generation from ship recycling and reinforcing Indias position as the worlds leading ship recycling hub, an official statement said. The meeting was attended by key stakeholders, including the Department of Science and Technology (DST), the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), the Gujarat Maritime Board (GMB), and the Ship Recycling Industries Association (SRIA), to examine the existing regulatory framework and explore avenues for usage of secondary steel obtained from ship recycling. The meeting underscored the governments commitment to promote circular economy practices, support domestic steel manufacturing, and ensure that Indias ship recycling industry continues to set global benchmarks in sustainability and efficiency, the statement said. Ship recycling holds strategic importance for India across environmental, economic, and industrial dimensions. From a resource perspective, ship recycling contributes significantly to domestic availability of ferrous scrap, reducing dependence on imported raw materials and strengthening supply security for steel and allied industries. Recycled steel requires substantially lower energy compared to primary steel production and results in reduced greenhouse gas emissions, directly supporting Indias sustainability and decarbonisation objectives. Economically, the sector generates large-scale employment and sustains a wide ecosystem of ancillary industries including transport, re-rolling mills, equipment suppliers and waste management services. Ship recycling also complements national initiatives such as Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat by linking end-of-life ship management with domestic manufacturing and industrial growth. Environmentally, regulated ship recycling prevents unsafe disposal of end-of-life ships, mitigates marine and coastal pollution risks and ensures responsible handling of hazardous materials under strict regulatory supervision. India is among the leading ship recycling nations globally. The Alang-Sosiya ship recycling cluster in Gujarat forms the backbone of the countrys recycling capacity and is the largest ship recycling hub in the world. The cluster accounts for approximately 97 per cent of Indias ship recycling activity, making it the central pillar of the national ship recycling ecosystem.

10 Years of Pink: Taapsee Pannu recalls choosing Minal Arora; says, Only I will do this film now
Taapsee Pannu is looking back at one of the most significant films of her career as Pink completes 10 years. Released in 2016, the Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury directorial featured Taapsee as Minal Arora, a young woman whose story becomes central to the films exploration of consent and societal attitudes. At the time, Taapsee had already begun attracting attention for taking on varied roles in Hindi cinema. Following her appearance in Baby, the actor recalled feeling the pressure of choosing a project that would build on the response to her earlier work. Pink eventually became the project that caught her attention almost immediately after she heard the script. She recalled saying, After Baby, there was a lot of pressure on me about what I was going to do next. In the first few Hindi films that I did, there was so much versatility in the characters I played that people were always curious about what I would take up next. There was this pressure that my next project had to be really good, and one step ahead of Baby. So, when Pink came my way, I heard the script and immediately found it interesting. The film was set in Delhi, and the makers had seen my work, so they called me and asked if I would be interested in doing it. Interestingly, they also asked me whether I thought a film like this should be made. As an audience member, I said, Definitely. Being a girl from Delhi, I genuinely wondered why nobody was making a film about an issue like this. So, when they asked me, I said, Yes, why not? I very authoritatively said, Only I will do this film now. And the rest is in front of you. Pink went on to become an important title in Taapsees filmography, with her performance as Minal receiving attention alongside the films subject and ensemble cast. The film also featured Amitabh Bachchan, Kirti Kulhari and Andrea Tariang in key roles. A decade later, Taapsee continues to take on characters across different genres. Her recent work includes Gandhari, in which she plays Bani, a mother searching for her kidnapped daughter. The Netflix film has also reached audiences internationally, with the film reportedly trending across more than 70 countries. From Minal in Pink to Bani in Gandhari, Taapsees recent career has continued to include roles centred on emotionally demanding characters and stories. As Pink marks 10 years, her recollection of choosing the film offers a look back at the decision that became an important chapter in her journey in Hindi cinema.

Fortis Healthcare arm inks pact to service 400-bedded hospital in Delhi
The agreement will give Fortis long-term exclusive rights for inpatient services, clinical manpower and specialised equipment at the upcoming facility.
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep16 (IANS) Pakistan on Wednesday condemned the attempted drone attack by Yemen's Houthis near the holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia, but avoided any military commitment, despite a military pact signed with Riyadh and Ankara, touted as being similar to NATO. Islamabad's reaction reflects a mix of strategic caution, domestic constraints, and regional balancing, according to some reports. Pakistan initially signed the Makkah Joint Defence Pact with Saudi Arabia in September 2025, pledging that any attack on one country will be treated as an attack on both. Subsequent reports suggested, amidst Islamabads attempt to present itself as a neutral mediator striving to bring peace between the United States and Iran, that the Pakistani army had sent around 8,000 soldiers and a dozen fighter jets to protect Saudi Arabia. Turkey joined the pact last month, building upon the earlier Strategic Mutual Defence Agreement amidst the ongoing Iran war. A Secretariat was established in Riyadh, with Pakistan slated to provide the first Secretary-General, underscoring its central role in the alliance. The pacts central clause, specifying that an armed attack against any one of the three partners be regarded as an attack against them all, promised Pakistani manpower and nuclear-backed deterrence for Riyadh; and for Ankara, it signalled influence in the Gulf. For Islamabad, it was a chance to reaffirm its strategic ties with Saudi Arabia and Turkey, which reportedly supplies it with defence equipment like the KORKUT against low-flying aerial threats and the SAHIN 40mm counter-drone system. This month, days after Houthis escalated attacks on Saudi Arabia, Pakistan had given a roundabout reply to probable action in light of the pact, saying that there are no such talks being held and will act when the time comes. Now, the pact is further tested with reportedly Iran-backed Houthi rebels launching drones inside Saudi territory, one of which was intercepted near Mecca. Saudi officials described the incident as an attack on Islams holiest city, though the Houthis denied targeting religious sites, claiming their operations were aimed at oil facilities and military bases. Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif did issue a condemnation, calling the attempted strike dastardly and heinous, praising Saudi forces for their vigilance and reaffirming Islamabads solidarity with Riyadh. Yet, Pakistan stopped short of promising military assistance. Instead, officials stressed that the pact was defensive in nature and not designed for offensive operations. Pakistans military spokesperson Lt. Gen. Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry on Wednesday clarified that the alliance was about collective deterrence and had o regional aspirations. This careful wording reflects Pakistans reluctance to be drawn into direct conflict with the Houthis, and by extension, Iran. Pakistan shares a long border with Iran and cannot afford to antagonise Tehran. Direct military involvement against Irans allies could destabilise its western frontier, where Islamabad is involved in a severe armed conflict with the Baloch fighters at the Pakistan-Iran-Afghanistan trijunction. Additionally, Pakistans economy is broken, dependent on international financial aid, including from Saudi Arabia, and remittances from expatriates in the Gulf. Meanwhile, the Mecca Pact is said to be built on NATOs an attack on one is an attack on all clause, but its operational details remain vague. Pakistani officials have hinted that activation depends on the nature of aggression and collective decision-making, leaving room for interpretation. Since Islamabad is also mediating between Washington and Tehran, it is trying to position itself as a potential broker rather than a combatant. A military response could undermine this role, as is being held by some observers. Saudi Arabia would expect the pact to guarantee a physical military backing, but Pakistans hesitation suggests that the agreement is more symbolic than operational. Analysts argue that the pact was always more about geopolitical signalling than genuine collective security. For Riyadh, invoking Meccas sanctity may rally global opinion, especially from Islamic nations, but without tangible support from allies, its real deterrence value remains limited.

India rejects Pakistan-China boundary commission, says J&K and Ladakh are integral parts
New Delhi, Sep 16: India on Wednesday rejected the so-called Pakistan-China Boundary Joint Commission, asserting that it had no legal basis and that Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh were integral and inalienable parts of the country. Responding to media queries, Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said Indias position on the matter was clear and consistent and maintained that there was no boundary between Pakistan and China. We reject the so-called Joint Commission, which is without any legal basis, Jaiswal said. He said Pakistan had no locus standi to enter into arrangements concerning Indian territory under its illegal and forcible occupation. Jaiswal reiterated that India had never recognised the so-called 1963 China-Pakistan Boundary Agreement and had consistently maintained that it was illegal and invalid. He said India resolutely opposed any attempt to alter the status of the occupied territories or legitimise what it described as illegal occupation, asserting that such actions impinged on the countrys sovereignty and territorial integrity. Any so-called boundary cooperation between China and Pakistan concerning Indian territories would be completely unacceptable and would have no bearing whatsoever on Indias sovereignty over these territories, the spokesperson said. Calling on Pakistan to vacate the areas under its occupation, Jaiswal said Islamabad should immediately vacate from areas under its illegal and forcible occupation. The statement comes amid reports concerning the Pakistan-China Boundary Joint Commission, which India has rejected as lacking legal validity.

Trial must commence and must not go for an indefinite period. We will create a special court to hear these cases exclusively but no further delay should be caused, the bench remarked. The top court posted the matter for hearing on September 30. During the hearing, the court asked where the monies deposited by the homebuyers had gone. Where has the money gone? Has it travelled beyond the country? What is the role of the investigating agency? Law should be lucid. Confusion created by law is benefitting the accused. We have skillful agencies which can find where the money has gone, the bench

Is Xi Jinping In Hospital? Modis Concern, Missed Dinner, And Helicopter Claim Fuel Questions
Is China hiding the truth about Xi Jinpings health? India became the stage for a fresh wave of rumours after Xi appeared uncomfortable during the BRICS Summit and skipped Prime Minister Modis gala dinner. A dissident source later alleged that Xi was taken to Beijings 301 Military Hospital by helicopter. The claim remains unverified. No official confirmation has emerged from China or India. Xi did attend the summit, met Modi and completed the published programme. Yet Chinas opaque leadership system means even a small unexplained moment can trigger speculation about succession, military control and policy stability. This report examines what happened in Delhi, what is being claimed and what the available evidence actually proves.

'Want Afghanistan To Win One World Cup By The Time I Am In The Team,' Says Rashid Khan
Arun Jaitley Stadium: There is a particular kind of calm about Rashid Khan these days. The leg-spinner who once seemed to exist purely as a wicket-taking force of nature is now at his warm and affable self on the eve of the third T20I against India, a game which Afghanistan have to win to avoid a 3-0 series defeat. On Tuesday night at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, where Afghanistan faltered yet again, Rashid was the exception for the designated hosts: 28 with the bat, and 3-36 with the ball. The runs, in particular, were not an accident, so as were the three boundaries he hit off Arshdeep Singh in the 18th over (with the inside-out loft over cover for six being the standout). They were the product of a shift that began the day he walked into the Gujarat Titans dressing room in the IPL and was told he was no longer merely a bowler who could swing a bat. I have always wanted to bat; I started playing cricket by batting. I always wanted to bat. For a team, 20-25 runs are very important, and I wanted to do that for my team, especially in T20s. So how can I do that? Earlier, I didn't get that much batting. But since I came to Gujarat Titans, I have been getting more batting in the net sessions. Ashish (Nehra) bhai told me that I will play as a batter too and not just as a bowler. So, I focused more on batting. By working on and improving my batting, when I make runs in the match, I automatically get more confidence. It comes from confidence, and when that goes high, the practice and hard work pay off, Rashid told IANS in an exclusive interaction facilitated by Red Bull on Wednesday. The technical work and success in batting have been made possible by someone who is not someone who appears in the headlines. Naeem Amin, who Rashid met during his time at Gujarat Titans, is the man the premier leg-spinner calls first when something feels off. Amin, who also trained India stars Virat Kohli and Hardik Pandya before they were in England, was quick to message Rashid after Tuesdays game was over. He has helped me a lot. To be honest, all my improved batting has been done by Naeem Amin. Not just in batting, but also in bowling. I always talk with him. Last night, when the match was over, he messaged me, saying that I had a lot of fun. But what I enjoyed the most was when you hit a six over mid-off against Arshdeep - that was the best effort for me. To be honest, before we came here, I had done 3-4 sessions with him. We were working on how to play straight, how to hit a straight six, and not hit cross-bat. He was very happy that I hit a straight six. He helped me a lot. My go-to person is Naeem Amin. I go to him and ask him what I did wrong and what I can do better. If Afghanistan's arrival as a side capable of beating anyone has a starting point, Rashid places it squarely at the 2023 ODI World Cup in India - the tournament where the underdog tag stopped being an excuse and started being a weapon. It also has a New Delhi connection they beat the then-reigning champions England and sent their loyal supporters back home in euphoria. Exactly, everything started from here. In the 2023 World Cup, we defeated England, then we defeated Sri Lanka and Pakistan -- we defeated big teams. Australia was also close, but it was an innings Maxwell played and changed the game. In the 2024 World Cup, we defeated New Zealand, then we defeated Australia and reached the semifinal, recalls Rashid. The list has only grown since. But Rashid is wary of a team that celebrates upsets rather than expects results, and he keeps returning to the same word. In the Champions Trophy, we defeated England in Pakistan. It was a great achievement for us in the last 3-4 years. That's when our cricket reached another level. Now, it's a tough challenge for us to maintain consistency. We want to do it again and again -- we don't just do it once, and that's it. That is because when you do it again and again, that's when you show consistency. It's a big challenge for us. It was a tough match for us against South Africa in the T20 World Cup; we played in a double super-over, and we didn't win the match. I think it's a positive thing that we played well and performed well. We will try to do better. We will try to find a way to defeat big teams again and again. When there is pressure, we will control ourselves and focus on our skills. The one subject on which Rashid's fluency briefly deserts him is the T20I captaincy role, which he held till Afghanistan exited this years T20 World Cup at the group stage. When that captaincy was taken from him and given to Ibrahim Zadran, Rashid let out a laugh. Le li (it was taken). I mean, I don't understand. Whatever happens, it will be for the good. We don't know what the future holds for us. For me, it was my destiny to lead Afghanistan to this much. It was the same for Jonathan Trott. It was his destiny. I always wanted to lead the team and do well. But there are some things that you can't control. You have to accept, as a player, that you have to move on and play for the country. I know it's not there, but hopefully, Ibrahim is a good young guy. We all know how skilful he is. Hopefully, he can lead the team and win more matches in Afghanistan. For a cricketer whose career was briefly affected by back surgery after the 2023 ODI World Cup and extensive pain management after that, the most significant scoreline of 2026 is no complaints, no pain, no management plans. To achieve that, red-ball cricket, Rashids favourite format, has been put on the back burner. It's been sabse zabardast (very fantastic). I want every year to be like this one only 2026. I want to perform well and try to do well. So far, it's great in both formats, T20 and ODIs. The biggest thing is that my back supports me a lot. It helps me a lot, and I don't get any complaints from my back. So, I'm so happy about that. That turnaround, he says, owes a great deal to a few days in Austria at Red Bull's High Performance Centre in Salzburg, Australia, where the diagnosis was less about treatment for the back. Yes, it was very important. I was struggling a lot with my back. Then, I went to Red Bull's High Performance Centre in Austria. I wanted to do a full-body check-up to see where I could do better and the areas where my back was having problems. Even after the surgery, I was getting pain little by little. The 2-3 days that I spent there were very big days for me because I did a check-up of my whole body and found out my strengths and weaknesses. I was so impressed with it that I wanted to go again. Inshallah, I will go there for 2-3 weeks for training only. It was a good experience where I clearly got an idea of my body. We did a full-body check-up, and then for half a day, we sat with the physiotherapists and discussed the areas that needed to be improved by showing them on the screen. That really helped me and gave me a clear picture of where I do better. It's simple for me. Apart from the recovery, the nutrition aspect has been super simple for Rashid, whose favourite food is Dal Makhani. It's simple for me. I don't exercise too much, don't do much extra dieting, or eat everything, and I try to keep it simple. I am not strict - like, I don't have a weight machine with me, and I eat too much or too little, and I try to eat only what is good for myself and my health, as if you become rigid, then the guy becomes mentally affected. Sometimes, I feel like I want to eat biryani today and then have it once a week. I mean, too many restrictions are also not fine like no biryani at all. But I try to eat as much healthy food as possible. We all know what is healthy and what is not. You don't ask anyone about that. The more you eat healthy food, the less unhealthy stuff you eat, and your diet automatically goes as per that. I don't focus much on high-protein things. Whatever the body wishes to eat, I do that to give it sukoon (peace). If the body is happy, then you are also happy. Ask him what has changed most in the last 12 months and the answer has nothing to do with cricket. Rashid's son, Azlan, has rewired how quickly he can leave a bad day behind and, going by his own admission, that has had a startling effect on his wicket column. Before he was born, my mind wouldn't get fresh quickly. But now when I see his face or video-call him, my whole body relaxes. He is also a lucky charm for me. Since he came to the ground for the first match in England, I took five wickets. Then, in 3 matches, he came to Ireland, and I took 12 scalps. He is a lucky charm. He woke up during last night's match and watched it when I picked three wickets. He was sleeping in the previous match, and that's why my performance was not good. He is my happiness. He is my lucky charm. It's a different feeling. With a younger group now coming through, Rashid and his contemporaries find themselves in the role of custodians - telling the newcomers not just where Afghanistan cricket is, but what it cost to get here. We do talk to them. But we have put in a lot of effort, practised a lot, and given a lot of qurbani (sacrifices). All of it was done by the senior players, and I think this stage is the result of that. It's not like we got some things for free. We have put in a lot of effort. It's a matter of where we started to where we are now like from starting by playing against small teams to beating big sides. We do talk about it, but how to bring consistency in that and defeat them constantly and always bring in good performances. Home, for this team, is largely an idea sustained across hotel rooms in other countries, including playing away games. Rashid's squad packs it the only way it can - in small, edible, and familiar things. It's difficult to take so many things from Afghanistan with us. We don't spend much time in Afghanistan. But people's love and prayers are always with us, wherever we go. We can't take anything else with us, apart from their love and prayers. But we do carry the most famous dry fruits in Afghanistan to bring that home-like feeling. Like we eat dry fruits and have green tea in Afghanistan. We do the same around it so that we get back that feeling. Hopefully one day we can play an international match in Afghanistan - in Kabul and other cities. It's going to be a dream. New Delhi, meanwhile, is a city he knows well enough to have a favourite haunt he can no longer visit in peace Mazaar, a popular Afghan cuisine serving restaurant in Lajpat Nagar, a place where the diaspora is supremely active, apart from Bhogal in Jangpura. It's very difficult to go to Lajpat Nagar now. Before, it was fun going there no one would recognise us, and we would go to easily eat food and have fun. But it's difficult now, though at the same time, it's good the food comes from there, and we eat in the hotel. But it's still good. For all the records, franchise titles and wickets in every league on planet Earth, Rashid's definition of a career well spent will come down to a single, unclaimed piece of silverware an ICC title. Afghanistan came within touching distance of it in the 2024 Mens T20 World Cup, when they entered the semi-finals. It's very difficult to go to Lajpat Nagar now. Before, it was fun going there no one would recognise us, and we would go to easily eat food and have fun. But it's difficult now, though at the same time, it's good the food comes from there, and we eat in the hotel. But it's still good.
