UPT20: Bhuvneshwar Takes Lucknow Falcons Into Final With 47-run Win Over Meerut Mavericks

UP T20 League: Veteran pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar produced an extraordinary display of seam bowling as the Lucknow Falcons defended a modest total to defeat the Meerut Mavericks by 47 runs in Qualifier 1 of the UP T20 League on Thursday. The result also meant the Falcons secured their first-ever appearance in the tournaments final to be played on Sunday, while the Mavericks will move to Qualifier 2. Defending 145 at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, skipper Bhuvneshwar delivered a decisive spell of 4-10 under overcast conditions, including 18 dot balls, to dismantle the Mavericks top order and reduce them to 36/7 before bundling them out for 98 in 20 overs. I was nervous with 140 on the board, I won't lie. However, I knew that if we start well in the powerplay, we can defend it, Bhuvneshwar said after earning the Player of the Match award. After rain delayed proceedings briefly, Falcons managed 145 in 19.4 overs, anchored by Himanshu Singh's 61 off 45 balls, while leg-spinner Zeeshan Ansari, coming after Central Zones Duleep Trophy commitments were over, returned with figures of 3-14. Reflecting on his bowling strategy during the defence, Bhuvneshwar said reading the surface early to exploit the conditions was the key. The plan was simple. I saw that it was swinging a lot early on, so the plan was to try and get LBW and bowled in play. There was a little up-and-down bounce in the surface, so the plan was to bowl full. After my early wickets, everyone did the same. The veteran quick also revealed that technical rhythm overrides simple spot-bowling when pitching the ball accurately. Everyone talks about line and length. I believe that if you run in well, load, and land well, 99% of the time the ball will fall in the right areas.

Everyone knew it was not entirely batting-friendly and there is something for the bowlers. When the players walked in, they looked very pumped up already. The two wickets in the first over boosted everyone's morale. Article Source: IANS

Rasika Dugal recalls Mirzapurs rape scene ahead of Mirzapur The Movie release: I felt shattered to see Beena in a powerless situation

Rasika Dugal has revisited some of Beena Tripathis most significant moments from the Mirzapur series ahead of the theatrical release of Mirzapur The Movie. In an exclusive conversation with NDTV, the actor reflected on Beenas character arc, the difficult scenes she portrayed and the way the character repeatedly reclaims her agency. Beena Tripathi, played by Rasika, has remained one of the prominent characters in the Mirzapur franchise. Speaking about understanding Beenas emotional journey, Rasika credited the shows writers for giving her a strong foundation to work with. For me, it was never challenging to understand the emotional core of Beena Tripathi. It was on paper. The challenging part was to adapt her body language. When I first heard the story, my impression was that when Beena enters the room, people should turn around and look at her, Rasika told NDTV. One of the most disturbing moments in Beenas journey comes at the end of season one, when she is sexually assaulted by her father-in-law, Satyanand Tripathi, at gunpoint. In the following season, Beena takes revenge by killing him. Looking back at these contrasting moments, Rasika spoke about the emotional impact of portraying Beenas vulnerable state. What I really like about the writing is that whenever Beena's agency is taken away, she finds her way to a comeback. It was a moving moment for me when Beena locks the door at the end of season one. There was a sense of resignation in doing that. She knew that this day would come one day and she had to go through it. She was raped at gunpoint. I felt shattered to see Beena in a powerless situation. She is always self-assured, in control, but now she's in a powerless situation, Rasika said, revisiting the crucial scene. Rasika also connected Beenas experiences to the larger issue of womens agency in a patriarchal society. The truth about women in a patriarchal society is that when a woman owns a place, people don't like it and they try to take her agency, she added. The actor also addressed online trolling around portrayals of female desire and sexuality. She said she chooses to maintain her own boundaries when it comes to public reactions. Nowadays, it's not about films anymore. Everyone is commenting on everything around. So, if you read everything, you will be confused. I have my own filters. I don't want anything that can affect my decision as an actor, that disturbs my integrity as an actor. I don't want to be doubtful about my choices, said Rasika. Meanwhile, ahead of the films release, Ali Fazal and Divyenndu hosted a gathering for the cast and crew. Rasika recalled how a chef from Lucknow was invited to cook for the team during the celebrations.

India All-rounder Deepak Hooda Returns To Baroda Domestic Team After Five-year Absence

BCA Chief Executive Officer Snehal: Batting all-rounder Deepak Hooda is set to play again for his home state, Baroda, in the ongoing domestic season, five years after leaving the team following a feud with skipper Krunal Pandya, a left-arm spin-bowling all-rounder. Hooda, 31, had left Baroda and moved to Rajasthan after being suspended by the Baroda Cricket Association (BCA) for indiscipline, following a storm-out from the team hotel and bio-bubble on the eve of Barodas first game in the 2021 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, during which he alleged verbal abuse and bullying by Pandya in a practice session.

In the IPL, Hooda has played for Rajasthan Royals, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Punjab Kings, Lucknow Super Giants and Chennai Super Kings. So far, Hooda has scored 4,267 first-class runs at an average of 45.39, including 14 centuries, alongside nearly 3,972 runs in T20 cricket and 3340 runs in List A cricket. The best thing is, our local boy is coming back home. We are very happy for the home coming of our own boy and glad to have him back. He made his Ranji Trophy debut for us and hes the second player after me to score a century in the first game, added Parikh. He also confirmed that wicketkeeper-batter Jitesh Sharma will continue to represent Baroda as a guest player, but only in white-ball games, while pacer Rasikh Salam will continue to play in all formats. The best thing is, our local boy is coming back home. We are very happy for the home coming of our own boy and glad to have him back. He made his Ranji Trophy debut for us and hes the second player after me to score a century in the first game, added Parikh.

Statehood essential for J&Ks prosperity: Karra

Jammu, Sep 2: Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) president Tariq Hamid Karra on Wednesday said restoration of statehood is essential for the development and prosperity of Jammu and Kashmir, asserting that the Congress has been at the forefront of the demand for the past two years. Addressing a press conference in Jammu, Karra said the Congress had consistently raised the issue of statehood through protests and campaigns at various levels, including in Jammu, Srinagar, across districts and even in Delhi and Lucknow. As far as statehood is concerned, if anyone has taken this cause forward, it is the Congress Party and JKPCC, Karra said, adding that the party has been working on the issue for the last two years. He said the Congress had held protests at the district, regional and national levels to press for the restoration of statehood. We are happy that other parties have also participated in it. We have reached the point that the Congress Party has fixedthat as long as there is no statehood, the people here cannot prosper, he said. Responding to allegations and counter-allegations among political parties, Karra said such developments were part of democratic politics. He claimed that people of Jammu and Kashmir were now looking for an alternative to the present system of governance. People have understood that this type of government should not exist. They are looking for an alternative, he said, asserting that the Congress could emerge as that alternative in the future. Karra also defended the partys organisational activities, saying the Congress was focusing more on strengthening its organisation and putting pressure on the government rather than engaging in what he termed show-off politics. On speculation regarding political developments within the Congress and the possible return of certain leaders, Karra said he had no information about such developments. I am the head of the Jammu and Kashmir unit of the party. If anyone knows about it, I should know first. In my knowledge, there is no such thing, he said. Commenting on the ongoing political speculation in Jammu and Kashmir, Karra said the Congress would decide its political course based on its own agenda. He said the party was providing political space to those joining it but made it clear that newcomers would have to follow the Congress's existing agenda. Whoever comes from outside will have to follow the agenda of our party. No one will come with a new agenda from outside and think that we will apply it here. This cannot happen, Karra said.

UP T20 League: How UPCA Speed Hunt Changed The Life Of Barabanki's Shakti Verma

How UPCA Speed Hunt: From working a private job for 7,000 a month to sharing a dressing room with established Indian Premier League (IPL) stars like Sameer Rizvi, Mohsin Khan, and Karn Sharma, Shakti Vermas rise is one of the most compelling stories of Season 4 of the UP T20 League. Hailing from Barabanki district of Uttar Pradesh, the fast bowler was discovered through the Uttar Pradesh Cricket Associations (UPCA) Speed Hunt, a grassroots talent scouting initiative. He consistently clocked speeds of 138 km/h to top the charts at the Lucknow selection trials, earning a direct ticket to the UPT20 player auction where the Kanpur Superstars secured him for 2,50,000. While the ongoing season has been a challenging one for the Kanpur Superstars, Shakti has already featured in three games, proving that raw talent can thrive when given the right platform. Shaktis journey is rooted in humble beginnings. He is the eldest son of Amar Singh Verma, a local motor mechanic. Despite severe financial constraints, his father supported his cricketing ambitions, often managing to buy expensive season cricket balls for his practice. However, the overall cost of professional cricket nearly forced Shakti out of the game. My father does a normal job as a mechanic, and I am the eldest at home, Shakti shared. Cricket is a very expensive game. I used to do a private job earning 7,000 a month. With that salary, I couldn't buy cricket shoes worth 7,000. My coach, Sarvan Nawab sir, provided all the backing I needed. Whatever cricket I have played, and whatever I achieve in the future, is all because of him. Shakti's entry into formal cricket took time. He started purely on the local tennis ball circuits. When I played tennis ball cricket, boys would tell me I bowled well. A friend took me to my coach. Initially, I wanted to bat, but my coach told me to stick to bowling, and he polished my skills. My seniors like Vipraj Nigam and Shivam bhai also guided me and helped me financially during tough times. The UPCAs decision to keep the Speed Hunt trials entirely free of cost was the crucial turning point for players like Shakti, removing the financial barrier that often keeps rural talent hidden. That free trial was a very big thing for us, Shakti explained. If someone comes from a well-off family, an entry fee of 1,500 is very little for them. But for a normal boy, even 10 is a lot. Because the trials were free, boys like us got a massive boost. If the Speed Hunt happens every year, more boys and better talents will emerge from the bottom. Being picked at the auction for 2.5 Lakh has fundamentally changed his financial reality. The money we get from this platform can be utilised to invest in ourselves, he noted with raw honesty. The amount we received is more than enough for us. For people from normal families, this prize money is huge. Frankly, I had never seen this much money in my life before. That free trial was a very big thing for us, Shakti explained. If someone comes from a well-off family, an entry fee of 1,500 is very little for them. But for a normal boy, even 10 is a lot. Because the trials were free, boys like us got a massive boost. If the Speed Hunt happens every year, more boys and better talents will emerge from the bottom. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories The Speed Hunt gave a chance to new boys who couldn't reach this level otherwise, Shakti said. Players from the grassroots who didn't get opportunities in trophy cricket got a huge platform here. I am very thankful to the UPCA, Rajeev Shukla sir, and Dr. Sanjay Kapoor sir for this initiative. If we do well here, we can even play in the IPL and get international recognition. We can go very far. Article Source: IANS
