The Story of Manav Suthar: India's New Spin Star Who Turned a Dream Debut Into a County Deal
India recently defeated Afghanistan in a one-off Test in New Chandigarh by an innings and 300 runs registering their biggest win in Test cricket. In reply to Indias mammoth total of 564-8, the visitors were bundled out for 152 in their first outing and the debutant Manav Suthar ended with figures of 6 for 33 and a total of 7 wickets in the Test. He had received India Test cap No. 319 from veteran Kuldeep Yadav, another spinner. His performance with the ball was so impactful that his brisk 28 off 41 balls, including two magnificent sixes, remained unnoticed. He recorded many new feats: *His 6-33 are the third-best figures for an Indian bowler on a Test debut. Only Narendra Hirwani (who took eight wickets in both innings, against West Indies in 1988) has returned better figures on Test debut for India. *Only 9th Indian debutant to win a Player-of-the-Match award and only the third to record the feat for bowling (RP Singh against Pakistan in 2006 and R Ashwin against West Indies in 2011). *Only the fourth player (others: Albert Trott in 1895, Alex Kennedy in 1922, and Joel Garner in 1977) to score 25 or more, claim five or more wickets and to take at least three catches on Test debut (Suthar: 28 runs, 3 catches across both innings and seven wickets) in the game. * Fifers on Test debut for India : 1932 - Mohd Nissar v ENG, 1961 - Vaman Kumar v PAK, 1967 - S Abid Ali v AUS, 1979 - Dilip Doshi v AUS, 1988 - Narendra Hirwani v WI, 2008 - Amit Mishra v AUS, 2011 - Ravi Ashwin v WI, 2013 - Mohd Shami v WI, 2021 - Axar Patel v ENG, 2026 - Manav Suthar v AFG. *In his first over in Test cricket, he claimed his first wicket. He dismissed Abdul Malik off just his fourth ball in Test cricket, caught by Mohammed Siraj, only the eighth Indian to pick a wicket in his first over in Tests. Others in the list: Montu Banerjee 1948 against West Indies, Manohar Hardikar 1958 vs West Indies, Vaman Kumar 1961 vs Pakistan, Chetan Sharma 1984 vs Pakistan, WV Raman 1988 vs West Indies, Nilesh Kulkarni 1997 vs Sri Lanka, Tinu Yohannan 2001 vs England. * Before him, the only Rajasthan player (in first class cricket) to claim a 5w haul in Test cricket for India was Salim Durrani. Vinoo Mankad claimed all his 5w hauls prior to playing for Rajasthan. Who is this Manav Suthar? He is 23, born in Rajasthan's Ganganagar, and is already being touted as a red-ball specialist as a classical left-arm-spin bowler. His name has been in the news since a breakout 2022-23 Ranji Trophy season where he recorded 39 wickets in six matches for Rajasthan. Since then, Suthar is moving up by playing for India Emerging and India A in addition to other domestic tournaments. Made his Duleep Trophy debut in 2024 and claimed 7 for 49 on a flat Anantapur pitch. During the Ranji 2025-26 season, he claimed a match-winning 8 for 42 against Chhattisgarh. So far, he has claimed 136 first-class wickets. In the IPL, he plays for the Gujarat Titans; after spending two years as a net bowler for them he was used for only 5 matches in three seasons and was not much successful as he claimed only two wickets. Luckily, while selecting the Test side, Ajit Agarkar & Co. looked at his red ball performances. Incidentally, Jagdish Suthar, his father, got him registered in a coaching centre to be developed as a batsman. Within 48 hours, coach Dheeraj Sharma shattered his dream with the message that Sir, this fellow is made to be a spinner. Dont stop him. He is now high on the ladder of India's next-in-line spinners. When I hadn't started playing, I wanted to be like Yuvraj Singh. Even now, he's my all-time favourite, but as a bowler, I love Ashwin Bhaiyya, Manav says. He not only idolises R Ashwin but closely studies his variations and his use of the crease as 'For me, it's like he's the perfect idol.' He was at the 2023 World Cup camp also and troubled even Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. He impressed selectors with his consistent performances for India A, particularly his five-wicket haul against Australia A, a few months back in a four-day match in Lucknow. He recorded figures of 28-4-93-5 on Day 1 to put India A on top. As he looks back on his rise, there's only gratitude towards his father and his coaches. He surprised his father, a physical education instructor, and gifted him a car from his IPL earnings. The support from my father has been incredible, he says. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Just days after his match-winning performance against Afghanistan, he has been roped in by Warwickshire to feature in the next two rounds of the ongoing County Championship season.

However, Central India, South Peninsular India, Northwest India and the Monsoon Core Zone are likely to experience below-normal rainfall during the season.Providing the outlook for June, Mohapatra said rainfall is expected to remain below normal across most parts of the country, at less than 92 per cent of the LPA. Some areas in Northwest India, Northeast India and the southern peninsula may, however, witness normal to above-normal rainfall.The IMD also forecast above-normal temperatures for most regions during June. Maximum temperatures will be above normal for most of the country, except for parts of Central, Northwest and East India. Minimum temperatures are also expected to remain mostly above normal, Mohapatra said. The weather agency warned of an above-normal number of heatwave days in Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, Bihar, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh. Parts of Maharashtra, Telangana and Tamil Nadu are also likely to witness increased heatwave activity. On oceanic conditions, Mohapatra said neutral ENSO conditions are transitioning towards El Nino, with the probability of El Nino conditions increasing to 82 per cent by June and crossing 90 per cent by July and August. Neutral Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) conditions are expected to persist throughout the monsoon season.He further noted that rainfall in May has been four per cent above normal nationally, while cumulative seasonal rainfall up to May 27 stood one per cent above normal.

It has since progressed into the South Arabian Sea and Lakshadweep, with conditions remaining favourable for its arrival over Kerala and the northeastern states within the next week. Meanwhile, the IMD on Thursday forecasted relief from severe heat across Northwest India over the next three days due to the influence of western disturbances and easterly winds, along with thunderstorms, gusty winds and hailstorm activity in several regions.

Even as the Congress officially declared that Siddaramaiah will continue to be the chief minister of Karnataka, multiple reports citing sources revealed that he will step down later this week and make way for D.K. Shivakumar to take over the top post in the state. What will Siddaramaiah get in return? Sources have claimed that Siddaramaiah has been offered a Rajya Sabha berth and asked to play a national role from Delhi. His son Yathindra Siddaramaiah is likely to be deputy chief minister. Meanwhile, Siddaramaiah is yet give nod to the high command's proposal and sought more time to decide on the issue. Minister loyal to Siddaramaiah and his close aides have reportedly asked him to weigh in all his options before deciding on resigning as CM. The reports come after a day-long discussions between the Congress high command and the state top brass. AICC General Secretary (Organisation) K.C. Venugopal said the party discussed only the upcoming Rajya Sabha elections and vacant MLC seats. Whatever speculation you people are doing, that is only speculation. No reality at all, said Venugopal denying reports of Siddaramaiah stepping down. He was addressing the media while flanked by Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar. The candidates of Rajya Sabha and Council seats of Karnataka will be announced along with the other seats like Chhattisgarh, like Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Jharkhand, like these states. That's all, he said. The nominations for the Rajya Sabha elections have to be filed by June 8. If Shivakumar becomes chief minister, it will put an end to years-long power tussle in the Karnataka Congress unit as his supporters have been claiming that the top job was promised to their leader during the 2023 assembly elections. In November, when the Congress government completed its halfway mark, Shivakumar's supporters camped in Delhi to seek the chief minister's post for their leader. However, Siddaramiah asserted that he wanted to complete the full five-year term as CM. Amid uncertainty in the state leadership, Leader of Opposition in Karnataka assembly R. Ashoka on Tuesday said the power struggle between Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar had pushed the government into a coma stage. The CM had said that Ministers will have to tour districts once in 15 days, but the CM himself is not following it. No one is touring their district to address public grievances, everyone is on a Delhi tour... It was said that grievance redressal meetings are not being held. Everyone is on a Delhi tour, Ashoka said.

The Congress high command on Tuesday put an end to speculations of a likely May revolution in Karnataka government, saying Siddaramaiah will continue to be chief minister. Adressing media outside Indira Bhawan in the presence of Siddaramaiah and Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar, AICC General Secretary (Organisation) K.C. Venugopal said there was no truth to the speculation about change in Karnataka chief minister. Whatever speculation you people are doing, that is only speculation. No reality at all, said Venugopal. He clarified that the Congress top leaders' meeting with Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar focused on the upcoming Rajya Sabha elections and Karnataka MLC seats. The candidates of Rajya Sabha and Council seats of Karnataka will be announced along with the other seats like Chhattisgarh, like Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Jharkhand, like these states. That's all, he added. Ever since the Congress came to power in 2023, Shivakumar's supporters have been seeking his appointment as CM in line with a previously agreed power-sharing formula with Siddaramaiah. Back then, Kharge said that the high command would give the medicine when required. People in the high command Rahul Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi and I will sit together and deliberate on this... We will give the medicine when required, he said.
