IPL 2025 A Huge Chance For Axar To Be An Effective Leader For Delhi Capitals
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Over the past year, Axar Patels stocks within Indian cricket has significantly increased. The all-rounders significant contributions with both bat and ball were instrumental in Indias victories in the 2024 Mens T20 World Cup and the 2025 Champions Trophy. If this wasnt enough, Axar was made the vice-captain in Indias 4-1 T20I series win over England earlier this year. Shortly after winning his second ICC title with the Indian team in Dubai, Axar was made the captain of the Delhi Capitals one of the three original franchises to have not won the Indian Premier League (IPL) title yet. Having witnessed Axar Patels growth firsthand as Gujarats captain, Priyank Panchal believes hes well-suited to lead DC effectively in IPL 2025. Ill go back to his early days when he started playing for Gujarat, he always was a good all-rounder. He always used to do his bowling really well. He was naturally talented, but he needed to do the hard work to carry that talent forward to big heights especially in his batting. He was the captain of the Gujarat team at the under-19 level. When Gujarat became the champions of 2016-17 Ranji Trophy, he was the captain for a few matches. So, he knows how to do this captaincy thing. Since he has been vice-captain of Delhi Capitals for quite some time, this is just a natural progression for him. As someone who has seen him from his early days, I feel that Axar will easily fit into the role of a captain because he doesnt panic much, and is very calm and composed. I would say that its a great opportunity for him if Delhi Capitals wins the IPL from here, as he is someone who one cannot even underestimate him as a captain and an all-rounder, said Panchal in an exclusive conversation with IANS. Last years match against Royal Challengers Bangalore marked Axars only previous appearance as DCs captain in the IPL, as his predecessor Rishabh Pant was absent due to a one-match ban for a slow over-rate offence. Axar also led his domestic team Gujarat during the 2024-25 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, where they missed out on a spot in the knockouts as Baroda and Saurashtra had a higher net run rate. Subsequently, with him at the helm, Gujarat made it to the Vijay Hazare Trophy quarter-finals before suffering a defeat against Haryana. In Axar, Panchal vividly recognises aspects reminiscent of MS Dhonis leadership. The best thing about him is that he doesnt have a junior or senior thing in his mind when in the team. He is someone who sees everyone equally, and gets along well with juniors because of his fun-loving nature. Plus, he is someone who doesnt get so bogged down when chips are down or when a youngster is not able to perform. He is the one who would be the first one to go and tell a youngster having a bad game that its okay, it can happen to anyone and just focus on the next game. With him being experienced now, he has a natural tendency to do all those things. So, the best thing about leadership is, as we have seen in MS Dhoni sir, that he does simple things but does it repeatedly. He does those simple things so nicely. So, not that I am comparing Axar with MS Dhoni sir, but I am just saying that the calmness and the way he does his things simply makes him an apt fit for the leadership role. In a captains role, you have many options to choose from. But he is someone who will use his options in the best way possible, as well as by focusing on making that simple thing so impactful, he elaborated. While Axars DC team-mates like Abishek Porel, Karun Nair, Tristan Stubbs and Mohit Sharma pointed out how his fun-loving nature will make the DC environment easy-going, Panchal stated about the all-rounders astute tactical nature. From what I observed, in terms of tactical inputs, he is someone who can judge batters and bowlers very well. He is someone who is always in the game, and his natural instinct comes out very well. Like, he knows where a particular batter will play and where he will try to get runs. So, he strategically tries to change the field placement. After that, even in batting, if he knows that I dont want to attack the off-spinner and I want to hit him over the cover, he is someone who in any situation, will bat himself accordingly. If he gets out, its okay, because its a high-risk game, especially T20. So, he is someone who adapts his batting by himself as per the situation, as well as around others, he added. Axars tactical skills, particularly his bowler rotation strategiesincluding when to introduce himself in the bowling attack as well as his communication with players within the Delhi Capitals set-up, will be critically examined during the high-pressure environment of a world-class tournament like the IPL. Panchal signed off on an optimistic note by saying the new DC support staff will help make Axars life easy as the captain. Mostly, he has to manage local players as well as have easy communication with the overseas players. Apart from the four overseas players, all of them will be Indian players. So, Axar has played so many games in the Indian domestic circuit and knows how to get the best out of the home players. The game awareness of players like Mitchell Starc and Faf du Plessis is so high that they dont need to say much most of the time. Panchal signed off on an optimistic note by saying the new DC support staff will help make Axars life easy as the captain. Mostly, he has to manage local players as well as have easy communication with the overseas players. Apart from the four overseas players, all of them will be Indian players.

Tur dal prices crash to two-year low
BENGALURU: This Obattu during Ugadi is set to get sweeter. Tur dal prices, which have been steadily falling since October last year, have touched a historic low this week. Good quality dal has gone down by 57% to 61% (depending on the brand) in the wholesale market when compared to the price six months ago, say traders. The price of Channa dal too has slid to some extent. The excellent rains last year when the sowing was done for these crops has resulted in a bountiful yield, say those in the profession. Retailers will have to pass on the benefit to the consumer due to the market dynamics, they add. Sanjay Bhasin, proprietor of Suraj Dev Traders at APMC market in Yeswanthpur, one of the biggest and oldest Tur dal dealers in the State, told TNIE, We are selling good quality Tur presently from Rs 101 for a normal brand to Rs 122 for a top tier brand (like Shivling). We used to sell them earlier from Rs 175 to Rs 200. It is the lowest price since 2023. The other big plus is that the prices are presently on par with the dal imported from African nations like Mozambique and Zimbabwe or Mynamar which were in demand earlier as they were cheaper than that in India. Kalaburagi and Raichur in Karnataka, Latur, Akola and Sholapur in Maharashtra, Vasad in Gujarat as well as Telangana and Andhra Pradesh are major Tur dal processing centres in the country, he said. Due to the good rains, farmers sowed more of the dal last year and they are reaping its benefits now, he added. Asked how quickly the benefit would be passed to customers by retailers, Bhasin said, Even if we wholesalers suffer a loss, we do it immediately. Retailers will do it a little slower but they will have to do it. Past president of FKCCI and prominent Tur dal merchant, Ramesh Chandra Lahoti said, Channa dal, a vital ingredient used in cooking delicacies, was selling for Rs 100 to 110 in November and December last year. Today, we are selling it Rs 72 to Rs 85 in Bengaluru. This along with the Tur dal prices slash is an Ugadi gift for all.

Minnu, Harleen, Jemimah And Sneh Named Captains For Senior Womens Multi-Day Challenger Trophy
Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Minnu Mani, Harleen Deol, Jemimah Rodrigues and Sneh Rana have been named captains of Teams A, B, C and D respectively for the upcoming Senior Womens Multi-Day Challenger Trophy. The red-ball tournament will take place at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium and Abhimanyu Cricket Academy in Dehradun from March 25 to April 8. The red-ball tournament had come back in the India womens cricket domestic circuit in 2024 after last making an appearance in 2018. If it was hosted in the zonal format last year, the BCCI has now done away with it for the upcoming edition of the tournament and constituted teams based on first four alphabets in the English language. The competition will be played in round-robin format and games will be of three days each, with the team having most points being adjudged as the winner of the tournament. All four teams have players who are mostly comprising of regulars in the Indian team as well as top performers from the recent Womens Premier League (WPL) like Amanjot Kaur, who was adjudged as Emerging Player of the 2025 season, where her team Mumbai Indians won the title. The tournament will also see uncapped fast-bowling all-rounder Kashvee Gautam in action, after she picked 11 wickets in nine games for the Gujarat Giants. Interestingly, India captain Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana, Deepti Sharma and Renuka Singh Thakur havent been selected for the domestic red-ball tournament. The decision to not include the quartet may have come due to the Neetu David-led womens selection committee opting to keep them fresh ahead of the ODI tri-series in Sri Lanka, starting from April 27 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. Team A: Minnu Mani (C), Arundhati Reddy (VC), Richa Ghosh, Shipra Giri, Shubha Satheesh, Shweta Sehrawat, Vrinda Dinesh, Mukta Magre, Henrietta Pereira, Tanuja Kanwar, Vasavi A. Pavani, Priya Mishra, Sayali Satghare, Anaadi Tagde and Pragati Singh. Team B: Harleen Deol (C), Yastika Bhatia (VC), M. Mamatha, Pratika Rawal, Ayushi Soni, Arushi Goel, Kanika Ahuja, Mita Paul, Sree Charani, Mamta Paswan, Prema Rawat, Nandini Sharma, Kranti Goud, Akshara S and Titas Sadhu. Team C: Jemimah Rodrigues (C), Shafali Verma (VC), Uma Chetry, Riya Choudhary, Tripti Singh, Tanusree Sarkar, Tejal Hasabnis, Sushree Dibyadarshini, Suchi Upadhya, Rajeshwari Gayakwad, Saranya Gadwal, Joshita VJ, Shabnam MD, Saima Thakor and Garima Yadav. Team B: Harleen Deol (C), Yastika Bhatia (VC), M.

Gujarati father, daughter shot dead in Virginia store attack
AHMEDABAD: The fatal shooting of a Gujarati father and daughter inside their store in Virginia has sent shockwaves through the Indian community in the United States. The victims, Pradeepkumar Ratilal Patel (56) and his 24-year-old daughter, were attacked by a gunman in Accomack County, leaving the community reeling from yet another violent tragedy. Pradeepkumar, originally from Kanoda village in Mehsana, Gujarat, was killed instantly when the assailant stormed into their shop and opened fire. His daughter succumbed to her injuries while receiving medical treatment. A swift police response led to the immediate arrest of the suspect, identified as George Frazier Devon Wharton. However, authorities have yet to determine the motive behind the brutal attack. The father and daughter were members of our family, said store owner Patesh Patel, struggling to process the tragedy. My cousin's wife and her father were working at the store in the morning when a man suddenly entered and opened fire. I dont know what to do. The Gujarati community in the U.S. remains on edge as violent incidents continue to rise. Just seven months ago, Vadodara native Mainank Patel was gunned down in a random shooting by a minor in Celebrity, USA. His wife attempted to save him, but the attack proved fatal. Patel, who had lived in America for 18 years, was working as a gas station manager at the time of his death. Authorities in Virginia have launched a full-scale investigation into the latest shooting, with local police promising to reveal further details soon.

BJP flags deficit, mayor points to Rs 350 crore due from union govt
CHENNAI: During the Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) budget estimate 2025-26 discussion held at the Ripon Building on Friday, Mayor R Priya criticised the union government for failing to release Rs 350 crore in central grants owed to the civic body. When BJP councillor Uma Anandhan raised concern over the GCCs continuous deficit budgets and noted that the recurring shortfall would strain the corporations loan repayment capacity and hinder capital expenditure, Priya said the GCC is currently relying on its own-source of income and support from the state government as centre is yet to release the funds. She said the corporation had already implemented a 6% annual increase in property tax, as mandated by the Central Finance Commission (CFC), a key condition for availing central grants. However, despite adhering to the requirement, the promised funds have not been disbursed. Had the funds been released, there would be no budget deficit, Priya said. Uma Anandhan also accused the states ministers and MPs of skipping central finance meetings, alleging that they raise concern about fund delays without attending discussions. Priya dismissed the claim as false. When majority of councillors raised concerns despite the increase in the ward councillors fund from Rs 50 lakh to Rs 60 lakh, claiming that the amount was insufficient as notable portion goes towards GST, Uma Anandhan said she would speak to Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitaraman during her visit to Chennai on the possibility of waiving GST. Councillors from VCK, CPI, CPM and MDMK raised concerns over the proposed establishment of a waste-to-energy (WTE) plant at the Kodungaiyur dump yard. CPI councillor M Renuka questioned why the Kodungaiyur dump in North Chennai should bear the burden of such a hazardous plant when the Perungudi dump in south Chennai is being processed solely through bio-mining. It is not an economically and environmentally friendly project, she said. Mayor R Priya chairing a GCC meeting held on Friday | Express MDMK councillor S Jeevan said the International Finance Corporation, the private lending arm of the World Bank, withdrew its $40 million funding for WTE plants in Gujarat following backlash from environmental groups and civil society organisations over pollution. He warned that the upcoming WTE plant should not become the next Sterlite project. Similarly, AIADMK councillor K Karthick said that while the budget includes initiatives for middle, high and higher secondary schools, it fails to address primary schools. He noted the need to introduce welfare initiatives for primary school students. AMMK councillor V Giridharan while welcoming GCCs initiative to introduce geriatric care centres in UPHCs, highlighted the continuous shortage of doctors in many UCHCs and UPHCs. In response, GCC Commissioner J Kumaragurubaran said 150 doctors would soon be appointed on deputation-basis.

AAP reshuffles leadership, sends Sisodia to Punjab, Bharadwaj gets Delhi charge
NEW DELHI: Weeks after defeat in the Assembly elections, AAP has restructured the party, with former minister Saurabh Bharadwaj being appointed as the Delhi state convenor, replacing Gopal Rai, and former Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia being named the Punjab unit in-charge. An announcement in this regard was made following a meeting of the Political Affairs Committee (PAC) of the party on Friday. Former environment minister Gopal Rai will head Gujarat unit and Pankaj Gupta will lead Goa affairs. AAP had lost Delhi elections after 11 years in the recent Assembly polls. The BJP had ended its 27 years of absence by winning 48 seats while AAP got 22 seats. Senior AAP leaders, including Arvind Kejriwal, Sisodia, Bharadwaj, Rakhi Bidlan, Satyendar Jain, Somnath Bharti, lost the elections. Kejriwal, in a post on X, congratulated party leaders on being given new responsibilities. https://t.co/QuM5CIAwSe Arvind Kejriwal (@ArvindKejriwal) March 21, 2025 After the PAC meet, AAP general secretary (organisation) Sandeep Pathak said Rai would expand partys base in Gujarat. Pathak, Rajya Sabha MP from Punjab, has been named in-charge of Chhattisgarh unit. Assembly elections are due in Punjab, Gujarat and Goa in the next two years. Mehraj Malik was named the new chief of the partys J&K unit. The party also appointed co-in-charges for state units, including Jain for Punjab, Pathak for Gujarat, and Ankush Narang, Abhash Chandela, and Deepak Singhla for Goa. Bharadwaj said that the party got 43.5% votes, just 2% less than that of BJP in the recent Assembly polls. Half of Delhi voted for AAP. We have to take care of them as well as those who voted for BJP, he said. Sisodia said the affection of the people in Punjab would further propel the partys prospect in the state. The results of the AAP governments work in Punjab are visible. Its time to give rocket speed to the change. There have been a lot of developments in Punjab after the party formed the government. The Bhagwant Mann government will continue to work for the welfare of the people, he said.

Slapgate To KL Rahul-Goenkas Animated Chat: Top Controversies To Rock The Indian Premier League
The Indian Premier League: The Indian Premier League (IPL) has been one of the driving factors which has led to India establishing themselves as one of the biggest cricketing nations in the world. While the IPL has revolutionised cricket and brought in significant revenue, it has also faced controversies that have tainted its reputation. As the cash-rich league enters its 18th edition, let's recall some of the biggest controversies to have taken place in the league which had significant impact on the tournament. If one is to talk about controversies, the first one that comes to mind is the 2013 spot fixing scandal. The most infamous controversy in IPL history occurred in 2013 when three players - Sreesanth, Ajit Chandila and Ankeet Chavan - were arrested for spot-fixing during the tournament. The players were allegedly involved in deliberately underperforming in specific parts of the match in exchange for money from bookmakers. In 2015, charges of spot-fixing and corruption against RR co-owner Raj Kundra and CSK team principal Gurunath Meiyappan were made. The two teams served a two-year suspension from the league and were replaced by Gujarat Lions and Rising Pune Supergiant. The scandal also led to the suspension of these players for life by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) which was later reduced to seven years. Sreesanth was not a stranger to the negative limelight as he was also on the receiving end of the infamous Slapgate incident in the inaugural 2008 edition of the tournament. During a match between the Mumbai Indians and Kings XI Punjab, Harbhajan Singh and Sreesanth got into a heated altercation which ended with the spinner slapping his national team compatriot. The incident caught the media's attention and sparked widespread criticism of Harbhajans behaviour and he later apologised for the physical altercation. The incident led to a disciplinary hearing and Harbhajan was banned for the rest of the season Although IPL owners find their way to the headlines one way or another, Shahrukh Khans infamous exchange with security personnel in 2012 led to the King of Bollywood and majority owner of three-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) imposed a five-year ban on him, preventing him from entering the stadium. Although the official statement stated the superstar was trying to enter the field after his sides victory when he was stopped by security, SRK claimed he was triggered by a word used by the security staff, which was religious in nature. This list would truly be incomplete without talking about Virat Kohli vs Gautam Gambhir controversy that occurred during the 2013 IPL season in a match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and KKR. The incident unfolded when a heated altercation took place between the two cricketers during the game. It started with an aggressive exchange of words after a dismissal involving Kohli. Gambhir, known for his fiery demeanor, confronted Kohli, which quickly escalated into a public spat. The dispute was widely discussed, as both players are known for their passionate approach to the game. The duo squared up again in 2023 when Kohli got into an altercation with Afghanistan bowler Naveen ul Haq. Gambhir, who was Lucknow Super Giants mentor at the time, backed Naveen and words were exchanged again between the two. Since Gambhirs appointment as head coach of the Indian national team, both greats of the game have acknowledged their previous arguments and buried the hatchet in the past. Since the beginning of the tournament former India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been one of the faces of the IPL. However during the 2019 IPL match between CSK and RR at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, captain cool certainly lost his calm. In a tense moment, CSK needed eight runs to win off the last two balls, and the on-field umpire made a controversial no-ball call that angered Dhoni. After giving the no-ball initially, the umpires revoked their decision. Feeling frustrated, Dhoni stormed onto the field from the dugout and confronted the umpires. His actions were seen as a breach of protocol, as players are typically not allowed to approach the umpires mid-game. Despite the controversy, the match ended with a CSK win, but Dhoni was docked 50 percent of his match fees for breaching the code of conduct. The duo squared up again in 2023 when Kohli got into an altercation with Afghanistan bowler Naveen ul Haq. Gambhir, who was Lucknow Super Giants mentor at the time, backed Naveen and words were exchanged again between the two. Since Gambhirs appointment as head coach of the Indian national team, both greats of the game have acknowledged their previous arguments and buried the hatchet in the past.

'Don't use language to hide your corruption': Amit Shah slams DMK in RS
NEW DELHI: Union Home Minister Amit Shah Friday attacked opposition parties in the Rajya Sabha for raking up the language row, saying they were doing so to gain political mileage and hide their corruption. He also said there have been enough divisions in the nation in the name of language and it should not happen anymore as Hindi is not in competition with other languages but a friend of those. Some parties are raking up the language issue for their own politics. They are doing it just to hide their corruption, he said while replying to the debate in Rajya Sabha on the working of the Ministry of Home Affairs. The DMK-led Tamil Nadu government and the Centre have been at loggerheads over the implementation of the new National Education Policy and the three-language formula proposed under it. Shah also said that after December, he will do all correspondence with chief ministers, MPs and common people in their respective languages. Those who take shelter behind the language issue to hide their corruption, this is a strong reply to them. There have been enough divisions in the nation in the name of language, and it should not happen anymore, he said, amid the escalating row over the three-language formula implementation outlined in the National Education Policy. The home minister said every Indian language is a treasure for the country. Hindi is not in competition with any Indian language, it is only a friend of other languages, the senior BJP leader said. Tamil Nadu government replaces rupee symbol with Tamil letter in budget logo amid language row Dismissing the allegation of Hindi imposition, he said every Indian language is a treasure for the country. Shah informed the House that a new department of Indian languages has been established under the 'Raajbhasha Vibhaag' (Department of Official Language) of the Home Ministry. I want to say this so that those who want to divide the country in the name of language do not get an agenda. The Modi government has established a department of Indian Languages which will work on spreading all Indian languages. Tamil, Telugu, Punjabi, Assamese. Every language has been included, and there will be apps for translation too, he said. The home minister said some people have accused the Union government of being against Southern languages. How is that possible? I come from Gujarat, Nirmala (Sitharaman) ji is from Tamil Nadu, he said. Shah said the Modi government has worked for the propagation of regional languages and made provisions for imparting medical and engineering education in Indian languages. I want to tell the Tamil Nadu government, we have been saying this for two years. You do not have the courage to provide medical and engineering education in Tamil because your economic interests will be affected, he alleged. But when our NDA government comes to power (in the southern state), we will provide medical and engineering education in Tamil, he said. Assembly elections are due in Tamil Nadu next year. Without naming any party or individual, Shah said, Those who are spreading poison in the name of language prefer a foreign language and not an Indian language. Tamil youths can work in Gujarat, Kashmir, Delhi. You have been elected to Parliament, what kind of a system do you want? There have been enough divisions of the nation in the name of language and it should not happen anymore. Don't use language to hide your corruption. We will go to every village and tell people, he said, attacking the DMK. Tamil Nadu will not tolerate 'Hindi colonialism,' says TN CM Stalin
Gujarat government admits SC/ST watchdog met just once in two years, sparks Opposition fury
AHMEDABAD: The Gujarat government admitted in the assembly that the state-level vigilance and monitoring committee tasked to address atrocities against Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes has convened only once in the past two years. The disclosure came in response to a question by Congress Opposition leader Amit Chavda who lashed out at the BJP government accusing it of mere lip service with its Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas slogan. He alleged that while the government claims inclusivity, its failure to ensure regular meetings of the crucial committee exposes its neglect of SC/ST rights. Chavda sharpened his attack, accusing the Chief Minister -- who chairs the committee -- of having time for government events and festivals but not for crucial meetings on SC/ST rights. Raising the issue during Question Hour in the Assembly, Chavda also questioned the government's commitment to implementing the Atrocities Act, exposing what he called a neglect of marginalised communities. Congress MLA Amit Chavda hit out The committee's legal mandate is to meet twice a year under the CM's chairmanshipin January and July. But under this government, the panel has remained inactive, he said. Chavda revealed that due to the committee's absence for three straight years, Congress MLA Jignesh Mevani was forced to file a writ petition in the Gujarat High Court. Only after the High Court's intervention a meeting was held last year. But when asked how many times the panel met in the last two years, the answer was shocking -- just once. Six months have passed, and there hasnt been another meeting, Chavda stated. The Congress leader lambasted the government's inaction despite the rising incidents of atrocities. The government should launch a drive to eradicate untouchability. Instead, urgent cases are ignored. I have personally witnessed incidents where victims wrote to the DGP for police protection, warning that their lives were at risk. Even after drawing the government's attention, no action was taken. The result? Six people were killed, Chavda said, holding the government accountable for its failure. Congress MLA Amit Chavda tore into the Gujarat government, alleging massive land encroachments targeting the Dalit community. More than 20,000 bighas of Dalit-owned land have been illegally occupied. Despite repeated representations, the government refuses to act. Justice is being denied while land grabs continue unchecked, he said. Chavda further slammed the administration for failing to protect sanitation workers. In Gujarat, workers are still forced to clean sewers manually, despite laws prohibiting it. They die in these death traps, yet the government does nothing. Their rights are trampled, he added.

Gujarat government spends Rs 61.97 crores on aircraft fleet maintenance in two years
AHMEDABAD: By January 31, 2025, the Gujarat government shelled out Rs 61.97 crore over two years on maintaining its aircraft fleet -- covering fuel, parking rent, pilots, and staff. Back in 2019, the state spent a staggering Rs 197.90 crore on new aircraft, pushing its aviation expenses even higher. Grilled by Congress MLAs, the Gujarat government revealed the breakdown: Rs 23.38 crore from February 2023 to January 2024, soaring to Rs 38.58 crore in the following year. The government admitted that on August 26, 2019, it approved a new aircraft purchase, shelling out a whopping Rs 197.90 crore to the airline company. Even as the Gujarat government pours crores into planes and helicopters, PM Modi's ambitious seaplane project sits grounded -- despite massive spending. The Gujarat government admitted in the Assembly in early March 2025 that India's first seaplane service, once a marquee project, hit turbulence in April 2021 -- after burning through Rs 19.50 crore. Sky-high operational costs have been the major reason. Responding to Congress MLA Shailesh Parmar, the government revealed that the Ahmedabad-Kevadia seaplane launched with much fanfare on October 31, 2020, has remained grounded since April 2021. The operator pulled out during Covid, citing unsustainable costs. Despite pouring Rs 19.50 crore into the project by December 31, 2024, the service still remains in limbo. Yet, the government insists it still hopes for a revival. The seaplane, personally inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi with a dramatic takeoff from a pond near the Statue of Unity and a landing at the Sabarmati Riverfront made headlines in 2020. Months later, the ambitious venture sank only as another grand idea that failed to take off.
Siraj was signed by Gujarat Titans for Rs 12.25 crore in the latest mega auction after being released by RCB. He started his IPL career with Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2017 and later played for RCB in 2018 for Rs 2.20 crore.

IPL 2025: Hardiks Belief In Himself To Do Things Differentiates Him From Others, Says Harbhajan
Though Hardik Pandya: Though Hardik Pandya will miss Mumbai Indians' opening game in IPL 2025 against Chennai Super Kings on Sunday in Chennai due to a one-match suspension carrying forward from last years IPL, former India spinner Harbhajan Singh believes the all-rounders belief in himself to do things separates him from others. IPL 2025 shapes up as an important tournament for Pandya, the IPL 2022 winning captain who had a torrid last season in every aspect. The decision taken by MI management to make him the captain in place of Rohit Sharma after coming in from the Gujarat Titans resulted in the crowd booing the all-rounder in first half of IPL 2024, even as the five-time champions finished last in the points table. He was always a very confident player from day one of joining the team in 2015. He was also a very positive guy with yes I can do this attitude. Since then, his positive instinct has been better than before. He has more belief in himself now that I can do these things and hes done it. So, that's one of his biggest strengths which differentiates himself from others. Now he has got the experience of playing almost 10 years now not just the IPL, but also a lot of international cricket, said Harbhajan, a JioStar expert, to IANS in a virtual interaction prior to the 18th edition of the tournament. Harbhajan had seen a young Pandya coming in as a rookie in the star-studded MI set-up and shine in 2015 IPL, and he believes the all-rounder still has that confidence plus positivity from that phase to emerge stronger as the sides leader in the upcoming tournament starting from Saturday. Its good to see the way he progressed himself for Mumbai Indians over the years, and then he was leading GT for 2 years, where he was brilliant there as well. Yes, last year wasn't that great for him since he was coming back to Mumbai Indians. But I think he has left everything behind, as after that, a lot of good things have happened like he played a major role for Team India to lift two ICC trophies. So, I think that this year Hardik Pandya will be at his best when we talk about his captainship or skillsets wise. When you are at peace, you are happy, enjoying yourself and kind of getting the best out of the other players. Its good to see the way he progressed himself for Mumbai Indians over the years, and then he was leading GT for 2 years, where he was brilliant there as well. Yes, last year wasn't that great for him since he was coming back to Mumbai Indians. Also Read: Highest tax paying cricketers Article Source: IANS
