IPL 2026: CSK Haven't Managed To Shift The Needle In Terms Of Top-fourteams, Says Mukund
Chennai Super Kings: Former India batter Abhinav Mukund has described Chennai Super Kings campaign in IPL 2026 as a very average season, adding that the fivetime champions only managed wins against lowerranked sides and failed to challenge the higherranked teams. Ruturaj Gaikwad-led CSK lost to Gujarat Titans (GT) by 89 runs at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad and ended their season with 12 points and a seventh spot on the points table, which may change when the league stage ends on Sunday. CSK had a very average season throughout with them not knowing their strengths at home because that is something that they take pride in. As much as it looks like, 'oh yeah, they've got 12 points and they had a decent season', to me a very big factor in that is they beat DC (Delhi Capitals) twice, they beat MI (Mumbai Indians) twice, they beat LSG (Lucknow Super Giants) once, and KKR (Kolkata Knight Riders) once. That's their 12 points. They haven't managed to even shift the needle in terms of your top-three, top-four sides. So you know the differential in that. You know the teams that are trying to compete with these top-four sides and you know the teams that are not close. So I felt that CSK had a very average season throughout with them not knowing their strengths at home because that is something that they take pride in. The seasons that they've done well in, they know that this is the team that they want to play at home and when they go away they have a certain strength too, said Mukund on ESPNCricinfo. CSK were plagued by injuries to key players including MS Dhoni, Nathan Ellis, Jamie Overton, Ramakrishna Ghosh and Khaleel Ahmed. While Mukund was pleased with Sanju Samsons trade to the CSK working well at the end, he also questioned the franchises auction strategy, particularly in the choice of their overseas picks. The Sanju Samson trade to me was a success because that's something they addressed from last season, the top. But after that, what happens to your bowling resources. You have got a lot of bowlers for pretty cheap in the auction but are they exactly the replacements that you want? Are these the areas that you're looking for? I don't think so. They have a lot to work on in terms of their overseas set-up because they've got Matt Henry, Matt Short, Zak Foulkes and Dian Forrester, all four who I don't think are going to make the cut for next season (but) these are all guys that are part of the other (Super Kings) franchises. But other than that, you've got Spencer Johnson, who comes in, Overton, Akeal (Hosein), Ellis and Noor (Ahmad). The Sanju Samson trade to me was a success because that's something they addressed from last season, the top. But after that, what happens to your bowling resources. You have got a lot of bowlers for pretty cheap in the auction but are they exactly the replacements that you want? Are these the areas that you're looking for? I don't think so. Also Read: Live Cricket Score I feel that there was a disconnect in the replacements that they picked as well or the back-ups that they picked in the auction. I would seriously have a rethink. That Indian talent is really good. I think there is a ceiling for them and there is some way to go with regards to their best performances yet to come, (but) I would still back them. But you've got to work on your overseas replacements, he concluded. Article Source: IANS

Srinagar, May 21: In an attempt to bring Indias unorganised construction labour sector online, two fourth-year students of National Institute of Technology (NIT) Srinagar have launched a startup that connects labourers, contractors and customers through a digital platform modeled around traditional labour chowks. The startup, BigBrick, founded by Saurabh Kumar from the Civil Engineering Department and Aryan Kumar from the Mechanical Engineering Department, is being described as Indias first digital platform focused exclusively on labour chowks and construction workforce management. According to the founders, BigBrick has already onboarded more than 2,500 construction workers across Srinagar, Jammu, and Katra, creating direct connections between workers, contractors, and customers. At a time when thousands of labourers across the country continue to depend on roadside labour markets for daily work, the startup aims to bring transparency, accessibility, and organized hiring into the sector through digital intervention. So far, the startup has generated revenue worth 11 lakh and recently received a funding offer at a valuation of 3 crore from Mumbai based company, second officer of 40 lakh by another venture, marking a rare success story emerging from a student-led venture in Kashmir. BigBrick has also been incubated and funded by the NewGen IEDC, University of Kashmir, and was awarded the Best Startup Idea during the IDE Bootcamp for its innovation and market potential. The core team behind the venture also includes Yashas Naidu, Vivek Kumar, Munmun Naresh, Raj Kumar & Vijay Kumar, who played a key role in scaling operations and expanding worker outreach. In his message, Director NIT Srinagar, Prof. Binod Kumar Kanaujia congratulated the students for their achievement and said Institute is committed to promoting innovation and entrepreneurship among young minds. This achievement reflects the innovative spirit and entrepreneurial potential of our students. Startups like BigBrick demonstrate how technology can be used to address real societal and economic challenges, he said. Registrar, Prof. Atikur Rehman also appreciated the initiative and said such success stories inspire other students to think beyond conventional career paths. It is encouraging to see our students building impactful ventures with real-world applications. Such initiatives not only create employment opportunities but also strengthen the startup ecosystem of the region, he said. Saurabh Kumar, Co-Founder of BigBrick said the aim of the startup is to organize the unorganized labour sector through technology and create a transparent system where workers can access employment opportunities with dignity. Construction workers are the backbone of infrastructure development, yet a majority of them still depend on informal systems for employment. Through BigBrick, we wanted to build a reliable platform that directly connects workers with contractors and customers, he added. Another, Co-Founder, Aryan Kumar said that startup was born out of the need to solve real challenges faced by daily wage workers in the construction sector. We observed that thousands of skilled labourers still depend on informal roadside hiring systems despite the rapid growth of the digital economy. BigBrick is our effort to bridge that gap by creating a reliable and accessible platform for both workers and contractors, he said.
A Mumbai man successfully claimed a tax exemption on Rs 5 crore land sales despite filing his ITR after the deadline. The ITAT Mumbai ruled in his favor, stating that since he used the entire capital gains to purchase a new property before filing his belated return, depositing the funds into a Capital Gains Account Scheme was not necessary.
