He Could Be At A Turning Point In His Career': Gavaskar After Prasidh's Five-fer Against Afghanistan
MA Chidambaram Stadium: Batting great Sunil Gavaskar believes fast bowler Prasidh Krishna may have reached a turning point in his international career after producing a match-winning spell to guide India to a nine-wicket, series-sweeping victory over Afghanistan in the third ODI at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. Prasidh registered his maiden ODI five-wicket haul with outstanding figures of 5-23 in nine overs, ripping through Afghanistans top order and reducing them to 36/4. His efforts laid the foundation for Indias comfortable win before Yashasvi Jaiswals unbeaten 110 and Rohit Sharmas 79 helped the hosts chase down 219 with ease. That is the beauty of Indian cricket, there are always replacements ready, and I think Prasidh Krishna could be at a turning point in his career. He has been in and out of the side, and he went wicketless in the first ODI and didnt play the second game either, Gavaskar told Jio Hotstar. In the third ODI, he bowled fuller lengths and made the ball work. He got the new ball, which is rare for him. In this game, with the new ball in hand, he used it well. He read the pitch well; there was carry and a bit of zip. That is what you need to do as a fast bowler. The former India captain said Prasidhs attacking mindset was evident throughout his opening spell, which dismantled Afghanistans top order. In his heart, he is an attacking bowler. Fast bowlers love to make batters uncomfortable, make them hop and weave. That is where they get their joy. Earlier, he was bowling too short and getting punished. But now he is pitching it up, getting movement, and taking wickets. That is the change that has made the difference, he added. In the third ODI, he bowled fuller lengths and made the ball work. He got the new ball, which is rare for him. In this game, with the new ball in hand, he used it well. He read the pitch well; there was carry and a bit of zip. That is what you need to do as a fast bowler.

The Great Disconnect: Degrees, Jobs and Higher Education in J&K
The crisis of higher education in Jammu and Kashmir is not a crisis of resources. It is a crisis of vision DR. SM MURTUZA BUKHARI Few regions in India can claim the scale of public investment that has gone into higher education. We have sprawling university campuses, hundreds of acres of prime land, impressive administrative structures, qualified faculty, substantial public funding, and thousands of educated minds occupying positions of academic leadership. Yet despite these advantages, one uncomfortable question continues to haunt the sector: Why are our graduates struggling to find jobs while employers struggle to find skilled graduates? The answer lies in a disconnect that has become impossible to ignorethe disconnect between degrees and the marketplace. Take any major institution in the Union Territory. The campuses are impressive, the infrastructure is substantial, and the academic credentials are unquestionable. Yet the true measure of an educational institution is not the size of its campus or the height of its buildings. The true measure is the success of its students after graduation. A university can possess magnificent infrastructure, but if its graduates remain disconnected from employment opportunities, entrepreneurship, and emerging industries, something fundamental is broken. The modern economy is evolving at an extraordinary speed. Artificial intelligence, data analytics, renewable energy, tourism management, logistics, healthcare technology, digital services, and entrepreneurship are reshaping labour markets. Employers increasingly seek adaptability, practical skills, and problem-solving abilities rather than degrees alone. Unfortunately, many institutions continue to produce graduates for an economy that no longer exists. Curricula move slowly. Industry participation remains limited. Internship opportunities are inadequate. Placement ecosystems remain weak. Academic departments often function in isolation from market realities. The result is predictable: students obtain degrees but not direction. What makes this challenge particularly frustrating is that it cannot be attributed to a shortage of intellectual capital. Jammu and Kashmir has scholars, researchers, administrators, policymakers, and educational leaders in abundance. Committees are formed, meetings are held, and reports are written. Yet meaningful transformation remains elusive. The challenge is not the absence of ideas. It is the absence of execution. The recent opening of the higher education sector to private universities presents an opportunity to change course. If implemented wisely, the new policy framework can give higher education in Jammu and Kashmir the wings it desperately needs. Private colleges and universities should not be trapped in the same maze of procedural controls that have constrained innovation for years. Institutions should be empowered to design industry-relevant programmes, collaborate directly with employers, launch skill-oriented courses, and create local employment ecosystems. Regulation must ensure quality and transparency, but it should not become a barrier to growth. Universities and regulatory agencies must evolve from inspectors into mentors and facilitators. At the same time, the transformation of higher education cannot be left to private institutions alone. Government Degree Colleges remain the backbone of the educational system and must become central to any reform agenda. The first step is to replace compliance-driven evaluation with outcome-driven assessment. Colleges should not primarily be judged by the number of files maintained, forms submitted, or inspections conducted. They should be evaluated on graduate employability, industry partnerships, innovation, entrepreneurship, research output, student progression, and community impact. Second, the culture of fault-finding must give way to a culture of collaboration. Too often, educational oversight revolves around identifying deficiencies on paper rather than helping institutions solve problems. Universities and regulators should act as partners in institutional development rather than merely custodians of compliance. Third, administrative processes must become simpler and faster. Institutions should have the flexibility to introduce market-responsive programmes, establish industry collaborations, and respond to emerging economic opportunities without years of procedural delays. There is an important lesson to be learned from educational hubs such as Bengaluru and Pune. Many successful colleges in these cities operate from relatively modest urban campuses where land availability is limited, and infrastructure may not always conform to the idealised vision found in regulatory manuals. Yet these institutions consistently attract students, maintain strong industry partnerships, and produce employable graduates. Their success is not built on land banks or architectural grandeur. It is built on outcomes. Students and parents rarely choose institutions because of the size of a playground or the dimensions of a building. They choose institutions because they offer quality education, industry exposure, internships, placements, and career opportunities. This is where Jammu and Kashmir must undertake honest introspection. For too long, higher education has often been measured through visible symbolsnew buildings, larger campuses, administrative expansion, and regulatory compliance. While these elements have value, they are not ends in themselves. Higher education is not a construction project. It is a human development project. The real purpose of a college is not to maintain files. It is to transform lives. Jammu and Kashmir does not need more regulations. It does not need more committees. It does not need a larger compliance machinery. It needs a new philosophy of higher educationone that rewards innovation, values employability, encourages autonomy, promotes collaboration, and measures success through student outcomes. Our institutions already possess the land. They already possess the buildings. They already possess the budgets. They already possess the brains. What they need now is a vision that connects education with opportunity. If we can shift our focus from paperwork to performance, from control to collaboration, and from infrastructure to outcomes, Jammu and Kashmir can transform its colleges and universities into engines of innovation, employment, and economic growth. The future of higher education will not be determined by the walls we build. It will be determined by the wings we give our students.

Kumble Recalls 'chucking Accusation' That Shifted His Career From Pace To Spin
The Great Indian Cricket Show: The former India captain Anil Kumble recalled how questions over his bowling action as a teenager forced him to abandon pace bowling and unexpectedly embrace leg spin, a decision that would ultimately define his illustrious career. Kumble revealed that he was primarily a fast bowler while playing school and club cricket before a senior player raised concerns over his action. One of the senior players in my club asked my coach to stop me from bowling as he felt I was bending my elbow. I honestly didnt even realise I was bending my elbow. I was bowling the way that felt natural to me. I was around 13-14 at that time and probably not strong enough, Kumble said while speaking on The Great Indian Cricket Show on Doordarshan. The accusation left the young Kumble searching for an alternative just weeks before the Karnataka Under-15 selection trials. Unable to continue bowling pace, he turned to his brother for advice, who suggested trying leg spin in the hope of improving his chances of making the squad. Then I got a chance for the Under 15 selection trials, which were a month or two away. By then I couldnt bowl pace because people were already saying I used to chuck. My brother told me, Try leg spin, there arent many people, maybe you will get a look. I didnt even know much about leg spin then. I had heard the name B. S. Chandrasekhar, but television was not common and I hadnt seen him bowl in matches. Kumble admitted he entered the new discipline with little technical understanding and without formal coaching. Rather than learning textbook leg-spin, he improvised using the grip he already knew from bowling off-spin, teaching himself through experimentation. Then I got a chance for the Under 15 selection trials, which were a month or two away. By then I couldnt bowl pace because people were already saying I used to chuck. My brother told me, Try leg spin, there arent many people, maybe you will get a look. I didnt even know much about leg spin then. I had heard the name B. S. Chandrasekhar, but television was not common and I hadnt seen him bowl in matches. Also Read: Live Cricket Score That selection marked the beginning of a remarkable journey. What started as a forced change born out of criticism eventually laid the foundation for a career that saw Kumble claim 619 Test wickets, become only the second bowler to take all 10 wickets in a Test innings, and establish himself as one of India's greatest cricketers.

Career Guidance and the Future of Human Potential in Kashmir
The role of guidance, awareness, and adaptability in shaping informed futures In Kashmir, people place great value on building better futures. Education, skills, and personal growth remain important pathways to opportunity and progress. However, one question often receives less attention than it deserves: how do individuals connect their abilities, interests, and aspirations with the opportunities available to them? This is where career guidance becomes important. Career guidance is commonly associated with choosing a profession or an educational pathway. Its scope, however, extends far beyond these decisions. It helps individuals understand their strengths, interests, values, and aspirations while enabling them to explore opportunities, make informed choices, and adapt to change throughout their lives. In this sense, it serves as a bridge between aspiration and opportunity. For Kashmir, this bridge has become increasingly important. The region is home to considerable talent, creativity, and potential. People continue to invest in education, skills, and personal growth in the hope of creating better futures. In a world of expanding opportunities, ambition alone may not always be sufficient. Individuals also need access to information, mentorship, exposure, and guidance. The world of work is evolving at a remarkable pace. Advances in technology, digital connectivity, artificial intelligence, and globalisation are reshaping industries and creating entirely new professions. Opportunities that did not exist a decade ago are now becoming viable pathways, while many traditional fields are evolving in response to technological and economic change. In Kashmir, this changing landscape is creating new opportunities across a range of sectors. Possibilities are emerging in technology, entrepreneurship, research, creative industries, digital services, remote work, and innovation-driven fields. As these opportunities continue to evolve, awareness of available pathways does not always develop at the same pace. The challenge facing many individuals today is not a lack of aspiration but a lack of clarity. Knowing that opportunities exist is very different from understanding where they are, how they are changing, and what preparation is required to pursue them. As a result, important decisions are often made with incomplete information. This highlights the importance of guidance. Research from leading institutions around the world consistently shows that success depends on more than talent or academic achievement alone. Access to information, exposure to opportunities, mentorship, and professional networks often play a significant role in shaping outcomes. Research led by Harvard economist Raj Chetty has highlighted the importance of social networks and social capital in shaping economic opportunity and mobility. His findings suggest that while talent may be widely distributed, access to information, guidance, and opportunity often is not. People who understand available pathways and have access to strong networks may be better positioned to pursue opportunities that align with their strengths and interests. This insight carries particular relevance for Kashmir. The region is home to considerable talent, creativity, and potential. What often shapes outcomes is access to information, exposure to opportunities, and the confidence to explore pathways that may not be immediately visible. Guidance can help bridge this gap. It can provide individuals with tools to understand emerging trends, explore possibilities, evaluate options, and make informed decisions. Equally important, it encourages self-awareness. Effective guidance begins not with identifying opportunities but with understanding oneself. Interests, values, strengths, and goals form the foundation upon which meaningful careers and fulfilling lives are built. Research from universities and the work of Melinda Mechur Karp reinforce another important idea: career development is not a one-time decision. It is a lifelong process of learning, exploration, and adaptation. Effective guidance helps individuals make informed choices while remaining flexible enough to respond to changing circumstances. People benefit from clear pathways while retaining the freedom to explore interests, refine goals, and adapt as opportunities evolve. An example of this can be seen in Tamil Nadu, where initiatives involving IIT Madras have explored technology-enabled career guidance for students at scale. The value of such initiatives lies not in technology alone, but in expanding access to reliable information and structured guidance. The broader lesson is that people are often better equipped to navigate change when they have access to guidance, mentorship, and accurate information. These lessons carry particular relevance for Kashmir. Economic and technological changes are creating new possibilities across a range of sectors. Digital connectivity has expanded access to learning resources, professional networks, and employment opportunities. As a result, individuals have greater access to information and opportunities beyond their immediate surroundings. Greater access to information and opportunities also expands the range of choices available to individuals. Compared with previous generations, people today often have access to a wider set of educational and career pathways. In such an environment, guidance can play an important role in supporting informed decision-making. One of its most valuable contributions is its ability to build adaptability. The future of work is widely expected to be shaped by continuous change. New technologies, evolving industries, and shifting skill requirements will require individuals to learn, adapt, and grow throughout their lives. Success is likely to depend increasingly not on mastering a single set of skills but on developing the ability to learn, unlearn, and relearn. This reality calls for a broader understanding of career development. The question is no longer simply what profession someone should pursue. The more important question is what capabilities will enable individuals to thrive throughout a lifetime of change. A growing body of research and policy analysis points to the same conclusion: success in the twenty-first century depends not only on knowledge, but also on adaptability, problem-solving, communication, collaboration, and the ability to continue learning throughout life. The conversation about career guidance can also be viewed through the broader lens of human development. It involves helping people understand themselves, recognise opportunities, and make informed decisions that align with their abilities and aspirations. Viewed more broadly, guidance is not about directing people toward a particular profession. It is about equipping people to make informed decisions in a world of expanding possibilities and constant change. Among Kashmir's greatest strengths are its people, whose talents, aspirations, and potential will continue to shape its future. Helping them recognise their strengths, understand their options, and navigate their futures with confidence is therefore not merely an educational objective. It is an investment in human potential and, in turn, in the future of Kashmir itself. (The Author writes on education and human development. Feedback: bakshisuhaib094@gmail.com )
