2nd Test: Always Believed Getting India Test Cap Was Bound To Happen, Says Saransh Jain
India Test: Confident of his abilities after years of consistent domestic grind, off-spin bowling all-rounder Saransh Jain on Monday said he always maintained a deep faith in earning his Test cap, adding that it was only a matter of time for him to grab it. Indore-based Saransh got his Test debut in the ongoing game against Sri Lanka at the SSC Ground after left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav was ruled out due to a viral infection and received his cap from senior left-arm spin bowling all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja. I had mixed emotions. When I received the cap, I was happy and excited, resulting in mixed feelings. When I started playing cricket, of course, every players dream is to represent India. Mine was the same - I wanted to play for India. And even if I hadnt received the cap yesterday, I definitely believed that I would represent India in the next one or two years, said Jain in a chat with broadcasters ahead of day twos play. Highlighting the rigorous demands of playing red-ball format for a long time for Madhya Pradesh, Central Zone and India A, Jain stated that mastering the longest version of the game serves as the ultimate benchmark for a cricketer and naturally eases the transition into white-ball cricket. And even if I hadnt received the cap yesterday, I definitely believed that I would represent India in the next one or two years, said Jain in a chat with broadcasters ahead of day twos play.

2nd Test: India Look For Series Sweep Against SL As Kuldeep Stays In Focus (Preview)
World Test Championship: India returned to winning ways in the World Test Championship with their victory over Sri Lanka in the first Test match at the Galle International Stadium on Wednesday. Just four days after their 165-run win, they will hit the ground running in Colombo for the second and final Test of their trip to the island nation, which begins on Sunday as focus remains on one of India's star bowlers, Kuldeep Yadav. The left-arm wrist spinner didn't had a great time in the first Test as Manav Suthar and Ravindra Jadeja tore through the Sri Lankan batting line-up. Kuldeep managed to pick only one wicket across the two innings that he bowled after sending down 25 overs. The ideal control that Kuldeep produces was lacking in Galle, barring his opening spell in the first innings when he got the wicket of Kamindu Mendis. Though he was brought in late in the second innings as others were doing the job, he didn't find his usual lines and lengths, mostly through the first innings. This puts the focus on Kuldeep and the Indian think tank on whether they go with him or bring in someone like Saransh Jain, the off-spinner from Indore. The Madhya Pradesh cricketer has had a decent record in First-class cricket, having taken 188 wickets in 54 matches. However, it looks less likely that Kuldeep will get dropped due to the sheer experience and quality he has. In most areas, India would be happy with their performance in the opener. Devdutt Padikkal took the No.3 role like fish to water in the absence of the injured Sai Sudharsan, while KL Rahul got a decent-looking 82 in the first innings. Rishabh Pant was at his best in the second innings with his stroke-filled knock of 66, giving the visitors the cushion and runs needed to give the hosts a 372-run target and look for a win. Suthar was phenomenal across both innings. The drift, the dip, the turn that he produced across the two innings of his 4/76 and 6/55 showed he has the mettle to shine now and also in the future. Ravindra Jadeja looked pretty good with his control with 3-57 and a 1-71 across the two innings, while Prasidh Krishna bowled a few superb spells in his three-wicket match outing. Sri Lanka, on the other hand, had only glimpses of what could have been a pretty strong outing for them. They would be rueing the failures of their top-order batters across the two innings as the middle-order put up a fight both times. Sonal Dinusha, Niroshan Dickwella and Dhananjaya de Silva gave hope to the hosts with the bat, while Asitha Fernando, Keshara Nuwantha and Prabath Jayasuriya were good with the ball. The second Test will offer a similarly spin-friendly surface, and both teams will have their work cut out to march towards a win. India will look for their first Test series sweep away from home since December 2022, when they beat Bangladesh 2-0. Crucial WTC points are on offer too as the two-time finalists look for a late push to the top two. All eyes will be on the 22 men as Colombo beckons.

J&Ks stock market investor base crosses 14 lakh, grows 19.3% in a year
Jammu and Kashmirs registered investor base in the stock market has crossed the 14-lakh mark, with the number of registered clients reaching 14,12,378 as of August 20, 2026, recording a year-on-year growth of 19.31 per cent, according to official BSE data accessed by Greater Kashmir . The figures show that J&K added 2,28,554 registered clients, or roughly 2.29 lakh investors, during the past year. This represents a substantially faster expansion than the overall growth in the countrys registered investor base, which stood at 15.80 per cent during the same period. The BSE data provides a snapshot of the changing geography of stock-market participation in India, with the countrys total registered investor base now standing at 26,03,00,179, or approximately 26.03 crore clients. J&Ks 14.12 lakh registered clients account for around 0.54 per cent of the countrys total registered investor base. While the Union Territory remains a relatively small market in terms of absolute investor numbers, the pace at which its investor base is expanding has been considerably stronger than several of the countrys largest States. The increase has also been consistent across different time periods. During the latest month, J&K added 19,478 clients, equivalent to around 19,500 new registered investors, pushing its monthly growth rate to 1.40 per cent. Over the previous three months, the number of registered clients increased by 52,618, or about 52,600 investors, representing a quarterly growth of 3.87 per cent. The national investor base, by comparison, increased by around 30.92 lakh during the latest month. Over the previous quarter, the country added approximately 85.16 lakh. Over the previous year, the national registered investor base increased by around 3.55 crore investors, taking the total to more than 26 crore. The comparison shows that J&Ks investor base is growing at a faster rate than the national average, although the absolute numbers remain much smaller. Maharashtra continues to have the largest registered investor base in the country by a considerable margin. The State has approximately 4.42 crore investors. This means that nearly one out of every six registered clients in the BSE database is registered in Maharashtra. Uttar Pradesh occupies the second position with 3,06,10,880 clients, or around 3.06 crore. Gujarat follows with 2,29,70,136, equivalent to about 2.30 crore registered clients. Rajasthan has 1,56,49,037, or around 1.56 crore, while West Bengal has 1,52,56,657, or about 1.53 crore. Karnataka has 1,39,43,659 registered clients, translating into roughly 1.39 crore, while Madhya Pradesh has 1,35,11,046, or around 1.35 crore. Tamil Nadu has 1,31,27,709, or approximately 1.31 crore registered investors. The other major States also have sizeable investor bases. Haryana has 85,72,167 registered clients, equivalent to around 85.7 lakh. Telangana has 80,08,260, or about 80.1 lakh. Punjab has 65,65,556, or approximately 65.7 lakh, while Odisha has 59,30,947, or about 59.3 lakh. Kerala has 59,17,495 registered clients, translating into around 59.2 lakh, while Assam has 53,02,132, or about 53 lakh. Jharkhand has 46,39,195, equivalent to approximately 46.4 lakh. Andhra Pradesh has crossed the one-crore mark, with 1,04,00,527 registered clients, while Bihar has 1,16,04,608, or around 1.16 crore. Delhi has 1,10,14,984, equivalent to approximately 1.10 crore registered clients. Against this national landscape, J&Ks 14.12 lakh investor base is larger than that of several smaller States and Union Territories but remains far below the investor populations of the countrys principal financial and industrial centres. For instance, Himachal Pradesh has around 15.58 lakh registered clients, only marginally above J&K. J&K has more registered clients than Manipur, which has around 2.74 lakh, Meghalaya with 1.65 lakh, Arunachal Pradesh with 1.22 lakh, Nagaland with 1.28 lakh, Sikkim with 84,221, Mizoram with 59,779, Goa with 4.99 lakh and Tripura with 4.28 lakh. Among the Union Territories, Ladakh has 5,213 registered clients, or just over 5,000, but has recorded one of the fastest rates of growth in the country. Its investor base increased by 44.44 per cent over the previous year. This is the highest annual growth rate visible in the BSE table. Mizoram recorded annual growth of 33.18 per cent, while Nagaland and Arunachal Pradesh recorded 28.01 per cent and 27.33 per cent, respectively. Lakshadweep, with just over 5,000 registered clients, recorded growth of 27.87 per cent. Among larger States, J&Ks 19.31 per cent annual growth puts it in a relatively strong position. Andhra Pradesh and Telangana each recorded 19.59 per cent growth, while Tamil Nadu recorded 19.46 per cent growth. Uttar Pradesh recorded 19.08 per cent. J&Ks growth was considerably higher than Maharashtras 11.39 per cent, Gujarats 13.13 per cent, Haryanas 14.42 per cent, Punjabs 14.96 per cent, Rajasthans 15.71 per cent, Karnatakas 16.51 per cent and Keralas 16.95 per cent. The figures also indicate that the expansion in J&K has been relatively steady rather than being confined to a single period. Its monthly increase of 1.40 per cent was higher than the national monthly growth of 1.20 per cent, while its quarterly increase of 3.87 per cent was also above the national growth rate of 3.38 per cent. In absolute terms, however, the difference between the largest and smallest investor markets remains enormous. Maharashtras 4.42 crore registered clients are more than 31 times J&Ks 14.12 lakh. Uttar Pradeshs 3.06 crore investor base is more than 21 times that of J&K, while Gujarats 2.30 crore is more than 16 times larger. The national figures also underline the rapid broadening of participation in the equity market. The BSE database now contains more than 26 crore registered clients, with the number having increased by around 3.55 crore in just one year. J&Ks addition of around 2.29 lakh registered clients during the same period is small when measured against the national increase, but significant for the Union Territorys own investor base. In percentage terms, the addition represents nearly one-fifth growth in a single year.

Distressed Kashmiri students in MP helped out: JKSA
Two Kashmiri students studying in Bhopal were allegedly subjected to harassment, intimidation and pressure to vacate their accommodation by fringe elements, as per a JKSA statement. The matter has since been addressed and brought under control following the timely intervention of the Jammu & Kashmir Students Association (JKSA) and Madhya Pradesh Police, it said. The students, who are pursuing pharmacy studies in Bhopal under the Prime Ministers Special Scholarship Scheme (PMSSS), approached JKSA after allegedly facing pressure from certain local residents and individuals who, according to their representation, objected to their presence in the area. The alleged pressure was also reportedly extended to their landlord. The students alleged that the landlord was warned to evict them and that, if they were not removed, the individuals involved could forcibly enter the premises and throw the students out. Concerned over the students safety and security, JKSA National Convenor Nasir Khuehami raised the matter with Madhya Pradesh Director General of Police Kailash Makwana and sought his immediate intervention. DGP Makwana took strong note of the matter and assured JKSA that no individual would be permitted to take the law into their own hands or harass, intimidate or threaten Kashmiri students. He directed Bhopal Police Commissioner Sanjay Kumar to intervene promptly and ensure the safety, security and well-being of the students. Following the DGPs intervention, a police team led by ACP concerned, along with Nishatpura SHO Manoj Patwa, visited the students at their residence, met them and heard their concerns. The students were assured of complete safety and security. Police also questioned individuals allegedly involved in threatening, intimidating or pressuring the students and called them to the police station for further inquiry. Residents of the concerned society were counselled regarding the need to maintain peace, communal harmony and non-discrimination and were cautioned against indulging in any discriminatory or intimidating conduct. Khuehami said action is being also initiated against fringe elements allegedly found responsible for creating pressure, fear or intimidation, and that legal proceedings would follow against anyone found to have violated the law. He said the police intervention has helped resolve the immediate situation and restore confidence among the students. The matter has now been brought under control following the prompt intervention of DGP Kailash Makwana and the Bhopal Police. The students have been assured that they will be able to live peacefully, move around freely, walk in the area, meet people, attend college and carry out their day-to-day activities normally, just like any other resident. Khuehami appreciated DGP Kailash Makwan, Bhopal Police Commissioner Sanjay Kumar and DCP Bhopal Zone IV Adarsh Shukla, SHO Manoj Patwa for taking immediate cognisance of the matter. Their intervention has sent a clear message that no one can take the law into their own hands or target students because of their Kashmiri identity or religion. JKSA reiterated that Kashmiri students studying outside Jammu & Kashmir are equal citizens of India and must be able to pursue their education without fear, intimidation or discrimination. No student should ever be forced to choose between their safety and education. Students from Jammu & Kashmir travel across the country to build their future, and they deserve to live, study and move freely with dignity. Identity, region or religion cannot be a basis for harassment, intimidation or exclusion, Khuehami said. Association also appreciated DGP Kailash Makwana for reiterating that Jammu & Kashmir is an integral and equal part of India and that its people are equal citizens of the country, entitled to the same rights, protection and dignity as citizens from any other state or Union Territory. The swift response of the Madhya Pradesh Police has reinforced our faith in the administration and in the principle that the rule of law must prevail over prejudice, intimidation and identity-based discrimination, Khuehami added.
