'Had Enough Runs To Defend': Parthiv Backs Indias Batting Efforts In Washed-out T20I Vs ENG
New Delhi: Former India wicketkeeper Parthiv Patel backed India's batting display after the rain-hit opening T20I against England in Durham ended without a result on Wednesday. India, who opted to bat first after winning the toss, posted 190 before persistent rain prevented the second innings from getting underway. Assessing the visitors' performance after play was called off, Patel said the innings showed India's willingness to adapt to English conditions and highlighted Abhishek Sharma's impact at the top of the order. According to Patel, India embraced the challenge of batting in unfamiliar conditions instead of taking a cautious approach. From India's point of view, they needed this kind of batting performance, especially after what had happened in Ireland. They wanted to challenge themselves; they wanted to adapt to the conditions early, and India did that really well in this game, Patel told JioStar. 190 runs on this pitch, with three spinners bowling through the middle overs, I thought India had enough runs to defend. Nevertheless, they will definitely be more confident going into the second T20I, he added. The former India cricketer also reserved special praise for Abhishek Sharma, crediting the left-hander for quickly reading the nature of the surface and making the most of scoring opportunities. I thought he batted really well. He understood the conditions well. There was a slightly spongier bounce in Durham, but he made sure that whenever the opportunity presented itself, he capitalised on it, he stated. Patel pointed to Abhishek's aggressive intent against both pace and spin as one of the defining features of the innings, as he said, That over from Saqib Mahmood was an important one, where he stepped out and hit three boundaries, two over point and one over mid-off. Then, when the spinners came on, he chose the right areas to hit those sixes. Looking beyond the knock itself, Patel said performances in overseas conditions continue to reinforce Abhishek's credentials as one of the leading batters in the shortest format. Patel pointed to Abhishek's aggressive intent against both pace and spin as one of the defining features of the innings, as he said, That over from Saqib Mahmood was an important one, where he stepped out and hit three boundaries, two over point and one over mid-off.

Terror must end before India-Pakistan talks: Chugh
Says under PM Modi, India follows zero tolerance on terror New Delhi, June 30: BJP National General Secretary and Rajya Sabha MP Tarun Chugh on Tuesday criticised political leaders who endorsed an appeal seeking restoration of dialogue and normal relations with Pakistan, saying such calls ignore the issue of cross-border terrorism. In a statement, Chugh named several political leaders and questioned appeals for engagement with Pakistan without addressing what he described as Pakistan-sponsored terrorism and infiltration. He said those advocating dialogue should direct their concerns towards Pakistan and seek action against terrorist infrastructure, an end to cross-border terrorism, and accountability for supporting militant activities. Chugh maintained that any move towards normal bilateral engagement should follow credible action against terrorism and reiterated the BJPs position that terror and talks cannot go together. They should ask Pakistan to admit its mistakes before the world and announce an irreversible end to the policy of training, financing and sheltering terrorists. That would be a genuine contribution to peace, Chugh said. Referring to past terror attacks, he said concerns of victims and national security must remain central to any discussion on relations with Pakistan. He added that under Prime Minister Narendra Modis leadership, India continues to follow a policy of zero tolerance towards terrorism and remains committed to raising concerns over cross-border terrorism at international forums.
