Sri Lanka Stun England With Huge Chase After Harry Brook's 202
Janith Liyanage smashed a six off the penultimate ball as Sri Lanka completed the second-highest successful run chase in ODI history, scoring 430-8 to beat England in Rawalpindi on Thursday. Needing eight to win off the last over, Sri Lanka lost two wickets to paceman Josh Tongue, but Liyanage kept his cool to achieve an astonishing victory and overshadow Harry Brook's record-setting knock. The England captain hit the fastest-ever ODI double hundred, making 202 off 116 balls to propel his team to a mammoth 429-4 after they were put in to bat. South Africa hold the record for the highest ODI chase, knocking off a target of 435 against Australia at Johannesburg in 2006. Batters thoroughly dominated in Rawalpindi as Brook also hit the first ODI double century by an England player. However, Sri Lanka proved up to the challenge as Pavan Rathnayake scored 130, with Avishka Fernando and Dasun Shanaka both making 97. Liyanage then led them over the line with a blistering 61 not out off 27 balls. Sri Lanka slid to 24-2 before Rathnayake and Avishka set about transforming the innings, putting on 166 for the third wicket. Rathnayake then combined with Shanaka to lift the tempo with a rapid 133-run stand off just 79 balls, to give Sri Lanka genuine hope. Rathnayake hit 15 fours and three sixes while Shanaka's blazing knock featured eight sixes and six fours, as Sri Lanka delivered a powerful response to Brook's earlier masterclass. Sri Lankan skipper Kusal Mendis was delighted at victory. I'm very happy as a captain, said Mendis. Everyone believed we can do it. Every day we talk about showing the character in team meetings, and it's about showing we can get any score. Brook was full of praise for Sri Lanka. Incredible game of cricket, both teams were exceptional. They played exceptional cricket to knock off 400, said Brook, downplaying his double hundred. It was a nice innings but being on the losing side it has no value whatsoever in my eyes. Brook clobbered 10 sixes and 21 fours as England posted a first 400-plus ODI total in Pakistan. He reached 200 in 114 balls, beating the previous fastest double century in ODIs, by Shubman Gill (117 balls) for India against West Indies last month. Brook was joined in the fireworks by Joe Root, who scored a 66-ball 69 and became the first England batter to complete 8,000 runs, in his 197th one-day international. Brook was dismissed off the final delivery, caught off paceman Liyanage, but not before helping England add 156 runs in the last 10 overs. Opener Tom Banton set the tone with a 51-ball 50 and Will Jacks was 66 not out with three sixes and eight fours. The day looked as if it would surely belong to history-maker Brook, but Sri Lanka had other ideas as the previous highest ODI total at a Pakistan venue of 375-3 was easily surpassed.

Goyal asks Europe not to 'invite disaster'
Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal has cautioned the European Union that its carbon tax on steel imports and a growing list of regulations could raise costs for businesses and consumers, stoke inflation and erode the bloc's global competitiveness.Speaking at the Berlin Global Dialogue on October 22, Goyal said the EU risked hurting its own industries by imposing additional trade restrictions and compliance requirements, including the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). He pointed out that higher costs for steel and other industrial materials could undermine Europe's economic interests.Goyal described the EU's approach as counterproductive, warning that the cumulative burden of regulations could hurt European industries while creating non-tariff barriers for trading partners.Also read | ArcelorMittal & SA's IDC close in on $610 m dealThe minister pointed to the implications for infrastructure development, saying higher costs for steel, aluminium and cement would affect projects ranging from ports and airports to highways, utilities and water pipelines. He said the impact would be compounded by CBAM and deforestation-related requirements.Goyal said the EU had accumulated around 75-77 regulations, arguing that repeated additions were increasing the compliance burden on businesses and making them less competitive in global markets.He also cautioned that countries could respond to restrictions imposed on their businesses with regulations of their own, potentially hurting European companies. In his view, the resulting increase in costs could push up inflation and make it harder for European industries to compete internationally.The minister cited Germany's automobile sector as an example, saying car sales in the country had declined by 15-20% over roughly the past decade. He warned that further cost increases could put more pressure on the industry's ability to compete.Goyal said India was focusing on improving its competitiveness while building mutually beneficial trade relationships with partner countries. He described India's trade agreements as fair, equitable and balanced, adding that the country was developing complementary economic strengths with its partners.Also read | Welspun Corps $350 million US bet rides rising oil, gas pipeline demandHe also pointed to Singapore as an example of a trading partner without CBAM and deforestation-related requirements.India has repeatedly raised concerns about the European Union's regulatory framework. Under CBAM, Indian exports of steel, aluminium and cement to the EU could face tariffs of 20-35%.The EU's anti-deforestation regulation (EUDR) imposes compliance requirements on products linked to deforestation. The rules affect sectors including rubber, creating additional obligations for producers and exporters seeking access to European markets.Goyal also highlighted India's relatively small contribution to global carbon emissions, saying the country accounts for 3-3.5% of the total while supporting 17% of the world's population.

RSFI President Tulsi Ram Aggarwal Hails India's Stellar Show At World Skate Games 2026
Tulsi Ram Aggarwal: Roller Skating Federation of India (RSFI) president Tulsi Ram Aggarwal on Thursday hailed India's stellar performance at the World Skate Games 2026, where the contingent bagged seven medals in Paraguay's capital, Asuncion. Speaking at the celebration ceremony after welcoming the athletes, Tulsi Ram heaped praise on the skaters' performance, with the likes of Anandkumar Velkumar and Anirudhan Vinod, among others, winning medals. This time, we have won seven medals at the World Skate Games in Paraguay. Two gold medals, three silver and two bronze medals. Paraguay is a far and hard place to be at. It is hard to take the skaters there, but we never hesitated and took the team to the tournament, Tusli Ram said. This tournament began on October 2. Nearly 10,000 athletes from 90 countries participated in it. Italy, Colombia, Chinese Taipei, Spain, France, United States, Iran, Chile, Germany, Venezuela, Portugal, Czechoslovakia, South Korea, Guatemala, Paraguay, and so on were the teams that participated in the event. Our children have gained a lot of experience and exposure from there by meeting different people, he added. The RSFI president also stated that Colombia are a pretty strong team in skating and that the sport is just like a religion there, just like cricket is in India. Just as cricket is considered almost like a religion in our country, skating holds that same status in Colombia, which is why Colombia is unbeatable in speed skating. However, it is a matter of great pride that one of our skaters, Anirudhan Vinod from Kerala, won a gold medal in the Junior Men's Road 1-Lap. At the same time, from a small union territory or region called Puducherry, a skater named Lohnath Arun Prasath won a silver medal. In the very same competition, two of our competitors achieved podium finishes with gold and silver.

Is Elon Musk Ukraine's Biggest Enemy? Kyiv's Drones Drop Like Flies After Starshield Disruption
Drones falling from the sky. Interceptors going blind. And two names at the centre of the storm: Elon Musk and Starlink. Musk controls more satellites than any government space agency. This week, Ukraine's military connectivity was suddenly restricted as Russia launched devastating attacks. Objects moving faster than 100 miles per hour reportedly lost their links, so Ukrainian interceptors could not chase Russian drones, and combat missions failed. Zelenskyy warned that people could die. The Wall Street Journal says Musk ordered the throttling of Starshield. Reuters says the request came from the White House. Musk denies responsibility. Trump says it was not him. So who ordered it? Bipartisan lawmakers now demand sworn testimony. Ukraine has no immediate alternative matching Starlink's reach. The larger lesson is already clear: when one billionaire's network carries a nation's military communications, sovereignty itself can be throttled. Watch the complete story to understand the stakes.
