Former Athletes Should Return As Coaches To Strengthen Indian Sports, Says Anurag Thakur
AC Bali Table Tennis Tournament: Former Union Sports Minister and Member of Parliament (MP) Anurag Singh Thakur said there should be efforts made to ensure former athletes are brought back into the Indian sporting ecosystem as coaches and mentors, adding that the country is wasting a valuable resource by leaving experienced ex-players in administrative office roles. Thakur made the call while addressing sports journalists on day two of the Golden Jubilee National Convention of the Sports Journalists Federation of India (SJFI) at the Constitution Club of India - an event hosted by the Delhi Sports Journalist Association (DSJA). Many players who got jobs through sports are now working in offices, while many of them could be involved with the game again as coaches or mentors. They may contribute far more to sports in those roles, he said. Thakur also pressed for a data-driven approach to athlete development that would allow talent to be identified and nurtured from the earliest stages of a sporting career. We need to analyse data and create a proper tracking system for the entire journey of an athlete so that talent can be identified early and groomed with the right support, he said. Thakur also called on the state governments to shoulder greater responsibility for building the infrastructure and human resources that India's sporting ambitions require. Sports is largely a state subject, and states must increase their budgets, build infrastructure, and hire more coaches if we want better results in the future, he said. On institutional accountability, Thakur insisted that policy recommendations must translate into measurable outcomes. Institutions are very important. We must evaluate what has been achieved after recommendations are made and assess whether our systems are actually producing results, he said. DSJA president Abhishek Tripathi underlined the significance of the occasion for the federation and the broader sports journalism community. It is a proud moment as the SJFI celebrates its Golden Jubilee. We are delighted to welcome sports journalists from across the country to Delhi and grateful to Anurag Thakur ji for interacting with the fraternity, he said. Several figures from the sports and corporate world were felicitated during the day's proceedings - like Shivalika Chadha Malik of Hero MotoCorp, Manva Sudarshan Hunswadkar of KRAFTON India, and Udita Dutta, founder and CEO of Artsmith, in recognition of their contributions to the sporting ecosystem.

Indias Decision To Stick With Samson In Top Three Worked Out Really Well, Says Ponting
T20 World Cup: The legendary Ricky Ponting has identified India's decision to persist with wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson at the top of the order as one of the defining calls in their triumphant ICC Mens T20 World Cup 2026 campaign, saying the faith shown in him by captain Suryakumar Yadav and the coaching staff proved to be the difference on the biggest stage. Samson's tournament began in uncertainty he had made only 46 runs in five T20Is against New Zealand and only got to play in the league stage game against Namibia in New Delhi due to Abhishek Sharmas stomach infection. Samson was then recalled for a crucial Super Eights game against Zimbabwe, and from there, he responded with a campaign that ultimately earned him the Player of the Tournament award. A blazing 97 not out in a virtual knockout game against the West Indies in Kolkata was followed by 89 in the semifinal against England in Mumbai and another knock of 89 in the final against New Zealand in Ahmedabad. His 321 runs across five innings are the most runs made by an Indian batter in a single edition of the Mens T20 World Cup. For India to stick with him at the top there, that was a big call to make. A big decision, but one that worked out really well in the end. If you get the backing of the coaching staff and the captain, then that's all you need. Just a pat on the back or an arm around the shoulder to say, we're sticking with you, we believe in you. When you've got the quality that Sanju's got, and the confidence of the captain and coach behind you, that's when great things can happen, said Ponting on The ICC Review show. For Ponting, who captained Australia to the 2003 and 2007 ODI World Cup triumphs, Samson's resurgence, along with Abhishek coming good by hitting 52 in the final, also showed how good India captain Suryakumar Yadavs leadership skills were in bringing the best out of his players. It would have been really interesting to see how Surya has interacted with Abhishek (Sharam) and Sanju (Samson) over the last few weeks. Thats where the real stories will come out on true leadership. It would have been really interesting to see how Surya has interacted with Abhishek (Sharam) and Sanju (Samson) over the last few weeks.

Beyond an 84 not out off 49 balls against the United States of America (USA) in the opening game in Mumbai, the Indian captain managed to amass just 158 runs in his remaining eight innings, yet steered India to winning the title on home soil.

Fast Bowling Sorted, Middle Order Strong, RR Have Improved From Last Year: Bangar
Indian Premier League: Former India batting coach Sanjay Bangar believes Rajasthan Royals (RR) head into the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 with a more balanced squad than last year, particularly due to improvements in their bowling attack and a strengthened middle order. Bangar noted that while the franchise has undergone some significant changes in personnel, the overall structure of the team appears stronger compared to the previous season. According to him, the Royals fast-bowling resources and spin options have been bolstered, giving them greater depth and flexibility. He also highlighted the importance of the opening matches, especially for new captain Riyan Parag, who is expected to receive strong support from local fans when the team plays in Guwahati. It will be a good start for Riyan Parag, playing three games at home. He will get home support in Guwahati as a local boy, coming here for the first time as a full-time captain. He will definitely want to perform well in front of his home fans, but it won't be easy for the Rajasthan Royals. First they let go of Buttler, and now there is no Sanju Samson as well, Bangar said on JioStar. The Royals will be entering the season without some of their established names, including former captain Samson and England star Jos Buttler. As a result, the responsibility in the batting lineup will fall heavily on emerging players and key middle-order contributors such as Shimron Hetmyer and Dhruv Jurel. Bangar believes the additions of experienced spin options like Ravi Bishnoi and Ravindra Jadeja could make a notable difference to the sides bowling depth, while their pace attack appears settled heading into the tournament. The young batsmen in the team will have to take the lead. They have improved a lot from last year, especially in their bowling department, particularly the spin department with the additions of Ravi Bishnoi and Ravindra Jadeja. Fast bowling seems to be sorted as well. Finishing might be a slight worry, even though they have the option of bringing in Donovan Ferreira, but the middle order looks strong with Hetmyer and Dhruv Jurel. Rajasthan Royals have definitely improved from last year, he added. The former India all-rounder also shared his thoughts on Delhi Capitals (DC), suggesting that their bowling lineup could be particularly effective depending on conditions. With a pace spearhead like Mitchell Starc and spin options including Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav, Bangar believes DC possess the variety required to adapt to different conditions during the tournament. I think the pitch at Lucknow will suit DC's bowlers. They have a good pace attack, starting with Mitchell Starc, which could prove beneficial for DC. And when they play in Delhi, their spin department will come to the fore, with the likes of Axar Patel, Vipraj and Kuldeep Yadav. For a long time, he hasn't gotten many chances in recent times to play T20s, so he will definitely want to leave his mark, he stated. The former India all-rounder also shared his thoughts on Delhi Capitals (DC), suggesting that their bowling lineup could be particularly effective depending on conditions. With a pace spearhead like Mitchell Starc and spin options including Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav, Bangar believes DC possess the variety required to adapt to different conditions during the tournament. Also Read: Live Cricket Score In batting, they have very good options, the combination of Tristan Stubbs and David Miller in the middle, and KL Rahul at the top. This team looks very strong, with quality all-rounders, good spinners and excellent fast bowlers. They will hope to start well in Lucknow and then take it from there, Bangar noted.
