MPL T20 Scindia Cup 2026: Invincible Chambal Ghariyals Crowned Champions, Seal Historic Double
MPL T20 Scindia Cup: Chambal Ghariyals completed a dream campaign in the Madhya Pradesh League (MPL) T20 Scindia Cup 2026, defeating Royal Nimar Eagles by 31 runs in the final at the Holkar Stadium in Indore. The triumph marked a historic double for the franchise after the Chambal Ghariyals women's team had earlier lifted the title with an unbeaten record. The men's team followed suit, finishing the tournament unbeaten as well. After being put in to bat, Chambal Ghariyals made full use of the opportunity, posting a formidable 224/5 in their allotted 20 overs. Openers Harsh Dixit and Ankush Singh provided a brisk start, adding 35 runs for the first wicket in just 3.4 overs before Dixit departed after scoring 32 off 18 deliveries. Ankush also fell soon after for 12 off 9, leaving the Ghariyals at 45/2. With the innings at a crucial stage, Apurve Dwivedi joined skipper Shubham Sharma, and the duo shifted the momentum with a superb 83-run partnership for the third wicket. Dwivedi was the aggressor during the stand, smashing 51 off just 25 deliveries, including five sixes, before being dismissed. Sharma continued to anchor the innings and found excellent support from Tripuresh Singh. The pair added another valuable 47 runs before the captain departed after a composed 57 off 38 balls. Tripuresh then ensured Chambal finished on a high, receiving valuable support from Rohit Gupta, who blasted 17 off just seven deliveries. Tripuresh remained unbeaten on 43 off 24 balls, striking three fours and three sixes, as Chambal Ghariyals powered their way to an imposing total of 224/5. While the batters lit up the Holkar Stadium with a flurry of boundaries and sixes, the spectators were also treated to a spectacular mid-innings show that further elevated the festive atmosphere. Chasing 225, Royal Nimar Eagles came out all guns blazing. Dharmesh Patel and Himanshu Mantri collected 21 runs in the opening over, smashing three sixes between them off Avesh Khan. Mantri was handed a reprieve early in his innings when Aman Bhadoriya spilled a straightforward return catch off his own bowling. However, Chambal struck soon after as Tripuresh Singh trapped Dharmesh Patel in front of the stumps for 17 off 8 deliveries. Mantri then stitched together a 35-run partnership with Kanishk Dubey before Bhadoriya cleaned up Dubey for 21 off just 10 balls. From there, the Eagles kept losing wickets at regular intervals and gradually slipped behind the required rate. Abhishek Mavi fought a lone battle with an unbeaten 73 off 39 deliveries but found little support from the other end as Chambal maintained control throughout the chase. Mayur Patel was the standout bowler, returning impressive figures of 2/21 from his four overs, as Royal Nimar Eagles were eventually restricted to 193/7 in their 20 overs. Abhishek Mavi fought a lone battle with an unbeaten 73 off 39 deliveries but found little support from the other end as Chambal maintained control throughout the chase.

MPL T20 Scindia Cup: Bhadoriyas Late Blitz, Key Wicket Take Chambal Ghariyals Into Final
Madhya Pradesh League: Chambal Ghariyals registered a place in the final of the Madhya Pradesh League (MPL) T20 Scindia Cup 2026 after edging past Jabalpur Royal Lions by 11 runs in a thrilling semifinal encounter at the Holkar Stadium in Indore on Friday. Batting first, Chambal Ghariyals posted a competitive 213/8 in their allotted 20 overs. Openers Ankush Singh and Harsh Dixit provided a steady start, adding 39 runs for the first wicket in 3.6 overs before Ankush was dismissed for a brisk 29 off 14 deliveries. Shubham Sharma then joined Dixit at the crease, and the pair stitched together a 42-run partnership for the second wicket. Dixit took the attacking route and dominated the stand, eventually falling just short of a half-century after scoring 48 off 24 balls. Although several Chambal batters got starts, the side struggled to build substantial partnerships and continued to lose wickets at regular intervals. At 170/7 in the 18th over, the innings needed a strong finish, and Aman Bhadoriya stepped up to provide exactly that. The all-rounder played a crucial late cameo, smashing 30 runs off just 14 deliveries to inject momentum into the innings and propel Chambal Ghariyals past the 200-run mark. His aggressive knock ensured the team finished with a challenging total on the board. In reply, Jabalpur Royal Lions got off to a flying start as openers Aryan Tiwari and the in-form Ajay Rohera stitched together a superb 105-run partnership for the first wicket, putting their side firmly in control of the chase. However, Chambal Ghariyals finally found the breakthrough in the 11th over when Aman Bhadoriya trapped Rohera in front of the stumps for a well-made 44 off 33 deliveries. The Lions suffered another setback soon after as PDP talent Vedant Awasthi was caught in the deep for 7 off 5 balls. Tiwari then found support from Ritik Tada, but the partnership was short-lived. Tada attempted to accelerate the scoring but was dismissed for 14 off 8 deliveries after Avesh Khan pulled off a blinder in the deep, leaving the Lions at 127/3 in 12.5 overs. Skipper Rahul Batham then walked in to join Tiwari. In a surprising tactical move, the Lions retired Tiwari after his solid knock of 51 off 34 balls and sent Sanjog Nijjar to the crease. The decision, however, did not have the desired impact as Jabalpur suffered another major setback when a mix-up in the middle resulted in Batham being run out for 7 off 7 deliveries. With wickets continuing to fall around him, Nijjar fought a lone battle and kept the chase alive. The equation eventually came down to 20 runs required off the final over. Chambal captain handed the ball to Mayur Patel, and the spinner responded brilliantly under pressure. He conceded just eight runs in the over and also dismissed the dangerous Nijjar for 26 off 17, helping Chambal Ghariyals seal a memorable victory. Patel finished with figures of 2/30 from his three overs, while Bhadoriya impressed with an economical spell of 1/22 from his four overs. With wickets continuing to fall around him, Nijjar fought a lone battle and kept the chase alive. The equation eventually came down to 20 runs required off the final over.

Azim Premji University Launches Realising Rights: A Handbook of Welfare in India
India has built one of the world’s largest welfare systems, covering a majority of its population through programmes focused on food security, health, education, nutrition, employment, and social protection. Welfare measures such as the Public Distribution System (PDS), MGNREGA, and social security transfers played a critical role in protecting vulnerable households during the COVID-19 pandemic. Delhi Event - Azim Premji University Launches Realising Rights A Handbook of Welfare in India To examine the strengths, gaps, and future of India’s welfare architecture, Azim Premji University has released Realising Rights: A Handbook of Welfare in India. Developed by the Centre for the Study of the Indian Economy (CSIE), the Handbook brings together 27 authors across 18 chapters and offers a rights-based analysis of India’s welfare policies and public systems. Key messages from the Handbook include: State governments account for nearly 90% of India’s social sector spending, while the Union government’s share has declined from 23.6% in 2008-09 to 8.5% in 2024-25. Governments collectively spend about 7% of GDP and 21% of total public expenditure on welfare sectors and schemes covered in the volume. Public spending on education remains around 4% of GDP and health below 2% of GDP, both below policy targets. Rights-based interventions have significantly expanded welfare coverage: Anganwadi centres increased from 6 lakh to 14 lakh following Supreme Court orders. The National Food Security Act expanded subsidised foodgrain coverage from 36.3 crore to over 81 crore people. MGNREGA generated 200–300 crore person-days of employment annually, with women accounting for over 55% of employment generated. The rapid expansion of cash transfer programmes is reshaping welfare delivery, while increasing digitisation is creating new challenges around exclusion and accountability. Key programmes continue to face gaps in coverage, funding, and implementation, including maternity benefits, nutrition programmes, pensions, and healthcare. Indu Prasad, President, Azim Premji University, said “ India’s Constitution embodies a commitment to dignity, opportunity, and justice for every citizen. We hope this Handbook contributes to informed public dialogue and strengthens collective efforts to build a more equitable and inclusive India, advancing the aspiration of a Viksit Bharat that leaves no one behind.” Dipa Sinha, Centre for the Study of the Indian Economy, Azim Premji University, said, “ The Handbook provides a comprehensive view of India’s welfare landscape through an analysis of major rights-based interventions of the Union government. We hope it serves as a valuable resource for academics, journalists, practitioners, and students, while helping translate research into action.” By bringing together evidence from across sectors, Realising Rights: A Handbook of Welfare in India contributes to informed debates on welfare policy, governance, and social justice, and underscores the importance of strengthening universal and accountable public services. azimpremjiuniversity.edu.in/publications/2026/book/realising-rights .

UCC to be implemented in Bengal by following all procedures: Suvendu
Kolkata, June 26: West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari on Friday said his government would implement the Uniform Civil Code in the state by following due legal procedures, similar to the process adopted by Gujarat and Assam. Speaking on the sidelines of a government programme to celebrate the 189th birth anniversary of literary icon Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay at College Street in north Kolkata, Adhikari said the state would adhere to the prescribed process for implementing the UCC. There is a procedure for UCC implementation, and we will adhere to that. This will be similar to Gujarat and Assam, he said, referring to the two states that have initiated legislative and administrative steps towards adopting a Uniform Civil Code, governing issues such as marriage, divorce and inheritance. The BJP government in West Bengal is likely to introduce the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) Bill in the assembly on Monday during its ongoing budget session, much ahead of the party-stated six-month deadline, a source in the Suvendu Adhikari-led cabinet said. The matter was discussed and finalised in a Business Advisory Committee meeting held in the assembly on Thursday evening, he added. The development could mark one of the most consequential legal and social policy shifts in Bengal in recent times, with the BJP holding the UCC as representing both a major governance promise and a politically significant reform. Ahead of the 2026 assembly elections, the BJP had pledged in its manifesto that the UCC would be implemented within six months of coming to power in the state. The promise was prominently highlighted by Union Home Minister Amit Shah while unveiling the party's election manifesto, or Sankalp Patra, in April. Several states, including Uttarakhand, Gujarat, Assam, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra, have already implemented the UCC proposals. Bengal will now also implement it in line with other BJP-ruled states as we had promised ahead of the elections, a minister in the Adhikari cabinet said. During the programme, Adhikari paid floral tributes to Chattopadhyay, the composer of the national song 'Vande Mataram'. The chief minister announced that the state government would build a national-level 'Vande Mataram' museum as part of the celebrations marking 150 years of the song.

Avesh Khan Opens Up On India Comeback Dream, Says biggest Challenge Is Consistency
For Madhya Pradesh: Competition for places in India's fast-bowling attack has rarely been tougher. With a growing pool of pacers consistently performing across formats, staying in contention requires far more than talent alone. For Madhya Pradesh and Lucknow Super Giants pacer Avesh Khan, who has already represented India at the international level, the biggest challenge in earning another opportunity is remarkably simple. The biggest challenge is consistency, Avesh told IANS when asked to describe the biggest challenge faced during the journey between representing India and then working to earn that opportunity again to make a comeback. The 29-year-old was candid when asked about the journey between wearing the India jersey and working to get back into the national setup. If you are performing consistently, then you will stay in the team, he added. While many players speak about confidence, pressure, or competition, Avesh believes consistency remains the defining factor that separates those who break into the Indian team from those who manage to stay there. Avesh acknowledged that he is currently outside the national setup, but made it clear that his focus remains on controlling the things within his reach. So, the main thing is that I am not a part of the team yet. So, I will try to do well in the Ranji Trophy season or the domestic season. Rather than looking too far ahead, the fast bowler is focused on performing for his team and building a strong case through results, as he said, I win matches for my team. So that I come back to the place where I deserve myself. His immediate roadmap is straightforward: complete the MPL campaign strongly before turning his attention to the upcoming domestic season. So, for that, I will work after the MPL. I will try to come back to my fitness and bowling, he stated. Modern T20 cricket is often viewed as one of the toughest environments for bowlers, with power-hitters, flatter pitches, and aggressive batting approaches making life increasingly difficult. Avesh agrees that the challenge is real, yet he sees that challenge as an opportunity rather than an obstacle. As you can see, T20 is a little tough for fast bowlers and bowlers. But I think there is an opportunity in it that you can do well. And if you develop new balls as a fast bowler, as a spinner, then you will be successful. For Avesh, survival in modern cricket depends on continuous evolution. You must have seen that there are a lot of fast bowlers and spinners in the league. So, I always look for opportunities to do well. And I always think that I will dominate him as a bowler. That mindset, of constantly adding new skills and looking for ways to improve, is central to his pursuit of another India call-up. India's pace-bowling reserves are deeper than ever, with several bowlers competing for limited spots across formats. But Avesh does not view that competition as a burden. Instead, he sees it as motivation. I mean, motivation is always there as a fast bowler. Because I have also played for India, Avesh said. The desire to continue playing at the highest level remains a major driving force. And playing in the IPL or any league always feels like a motivation. That you do what you love. So, it's a very good thing. According to Avesh, one of the biggest benefits of playing domestic cricket, franchise cricket, and leagues such as the MPL is the opportunity to learn from a wide range of players. Talking about motivation, it always feels good. That you are playing cricket, you are playing with young players, you are playing with experienced players, you are playing in the IPL. So, you get to learn a lot of new things, so it feels good, he opined. Avesh also opened up on Lucknow Super Giants, a franchise he has represented for multiple seasons. While LSG have endured disappointing campaigns in recent years, he believes the team's culture has remained one of its strengths. According to the pacer, the focus within the dressing room has always been on identifying shortcomings and finding ways to improve. My experience has been very good. The last two years, the results have not been in our favour. But we have always been together as a team. And we always think about where we are and try to improve it. And whatever is good, we try to make it better. So, our environment is very good, he stated. Avesh also opened up on Lucknow Super Giants, a franchise he has represented for multiple seasons. While LSG have endured disappointing campaigns in recent years, he believes the team's culture has remained one of its strengths.

But for India pacer Avesh Khan, success in cricket is not determined by talent alone. Having spent years in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and represented India at the highest level, Avesh believes the biggest differentiator between players is their ability to constantly evolve. Talent is present in everyone. It is more important how you improve as a cricketer every time. Because talent lasts only for a time, Avesh told IANS in an exclusive interaction when asked to describe the qualities that convince him that a player has the potential to go a long way. The fast bowler stressed that natural ability can only take a player so far. Sustained success, he said, comes from consistently working on every aspect of the game. And then you have to continuously work on your fitness, your bowling, your batting, your mindset, your skills. So, when a player plays, he plays at a higher level, he added. Avesh revealed that this is a message he regularly shares with young cricketers around him, particularly in a tournament like the MPL, where several aspiring players are hoping to catch the attention of IPL scouts and state selectors. So, I also tell our team members that talent is present in everyone. But how you use it and how you learn from mistakes is very important, Avesh said. He believes one of the biggest traps young players can fall into is relying solely on their talent without addressing their shortcomings. Instead of making the same mistakes every time, being talented and always hearing that there is a lot of talent, there is a lot of talent, he is not making runs according to that, he is not taking wickets. So, how you improve yourself is very important, he stated. Now in its third season, the MPL has expanded from seven men's teams to ten, providing more opportunities for players across Madhya Pradesh. Avesh feels the tournament has become an important stepping stone for cricketers looking to progress to higher levels. It feels good to play MPL. Because there are 10 teams and not a single team seems to be a light team. All the teams are very good. It almost feels like a mini IPL, he mentioned. The Indian pacer believes the competitiveness of the league is helping players prepare for bigger challenges ahead. We are playing at home ground in Indore. And we are playing against our own players. So, there is always a lot of excitement. A lot of young players are coming from our team and from other teams as well. So, this is a very good thing for MP cricket, he expressed. According to Avesh, the tournament serves as a confidence booster for players targeting opportunities beyond the state circuit, as he said, We are getting a confidence booster for all the players who can be picked for IPL, Ranji Trophy, or Mushtaq Ali. While individual talent often grabs headlines, Avesh credits Chambal Ghariyals' success this season to a collective effort. The biggest plus point for us is that we have different match winners in every match. The table-toppers, he said, have thrived because they are not overly reliant on one or two players. We are playing very well as a team. We are not dependent on any individual. If a batsman does not make a run today, our score will be reduced. If a bowler does not take wickets today, we will lose. Our entire team's effort is compact. So, we are playing very good cricket. As the team prepares for the semi-finals, Avesh is keen to ensure the league-stage success does not create unnecessary pressure. We all (teammates) have not met yet. But when we meet tomorrow, we will discuss that the semi-final match is just another game. We should not look at it differently. Obviously, there is a little pressure. But our team has handled the pressure very well in the league stage. And we will continue to handle the pressure in the same way, Avesh opined. The table-toppers, he said, have thrived because they are not overly reliant on one or two players. We are playing very well as a team. We are not dependent on any individual. If a batsman does not make a run today, our score will be reduced. If a bowler does not take wickets today, we will lose. Our entire team's effort is compact. So, we are playing very good cricket. Also Read: Live Cricket Score Instead, the team's focus remains on preparation and execution. We always talk in meetings that we will give our 100% effort. And we will play to our 100% ability. We always say that if we play to our 100% ability, we will win matches. And in the league stage, if we play to our 100% ability, we will win matches. Article Source: IANS

Speaking about her early struggles, Kranti said on JioStar, I never dreamt that big about playing cricket. Coming from a small village, from a place where girls are not even allowed to step out freely. If girls go out or try to do anything, they have to face taunts and criticism from people. But I always heard that those who keep working hard never lose. So, I just kept going. I kept bowling, kept learning and kept believing. I didn't let the noise around me stop me. I kept working hard, session after session, match after match. And today, I have reached this stage where I am representing India in the T20 World Cup. Wearing this jersey, standing on this big stage, it feels like all those struggles were worth it. Reflecting on the support she received from her family and the sacrifices made by her parents, Kranti added, If your family supports you, then what others say doesn't matter. Because those outsiders are not supporting you anyway. At that time, many girls were not even allowed to step out. But my parents were different. Everyone in my family always supported me. They never made me feel that I was doing something wrong. They believed in my dream. That support made all the difference. She continued, It gave me the strength to keep going and keep chasing my goal. When you know your family is with you, the world outside becomes easier to ignore. I am grateful to them for standing by me through every step of this journey because there were a lot of problems. I had to go and play matches, but there was always a shortage of money. My mother sold her jewellery to buy me a proper cricket kit. That was a huge sacrifice. My family was doing so much for me, and that made me feel responsible. I wanted to give something back to them. I wanted to make their sacrifice count. The 22-year-old fast bowler also shared that India's performances in the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup and the title win led to the establishment of her native village Ghuwara.

Trident Group Promotes Workplace Wellness through Yoga Day Celebrations Guided yoga and meditation sessions were conducted by certified instructors at all locations. Participants practised various yoga asanas, breathing exercises and meditation techniques focused on improving flexibility, concentration and overall fitness. The sessions also highlighted the importance of adopting healthy daily habits, mindfulness and regular physical activity. Inspired by Prime Minister Sh Narendra Modi Ji's message of " Yoga for Humanity 2.0 ", the programme emphasised yoga's role in strengthening physical health, mental well-being and social harmony. The active participation of local communities reflected Trident Group's belief that health and wellness are shared responsibilities that contribute to stronger and more resilient societies. Reflecting on the importance of yoga in modern life, Trident Group Chairman Emeritus and Rajya Sabha MP Rajinder Gupta said that “ Yoga is not merely a physical exercise but a complete way to make life balanced, meaningful and purposeful. He said that in today's fast-paced life, people often leave behind health and mental balance in the pursuit of success. Indian culture has always taught that success and happiness are complementary, not contradictory .” Explaining the significance of yoga, he said “ The word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit word "yuj", which means "to join" or "to unite". Yoga establishes harmony between the body, mind, intellect and spirit. In ancient India, yoga was not limited to asanas; it was a way of life that nurtured values such as discipline, patience, concentration, service and balanc e.” He said modern lifestyles are leading to increasing levels of stress, anxiety and mental fatigue, making yoga more relevant than ever. Yoga not only helps maintain physical health but also provides mental clarity, emotional stability and spiritual balance. Referring to the younger generation, Rajinder Gupta said that while today's youth have unprecedented opportunities, they also face immense pressure to succeed. In such circumstances, yoga provides the right direction, confidence and strength to maintain balance in life. He further said that technology and opportunities will continue to evolve in a rapidly changing world, but balance, concentration and connection with values will always remain important. He urged everyone to make yoga an integral part of their daily lives and embrace this invaluable heritage of India. The programme also showcased Trident Group's continued focus on employee wellness through regular awareness initiatives encouraging posture correction, eye relaxation exercises, desk-based stretching and wellness breaks. These efforts reinforce the company's commitment to preventive healthcare, healthy ageing and a positive workplace culture.
