Sher-E-Punjab T20 League: Amritsar Soormas, Mohali Kings Eye Winning Start
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: The stage is set for the opening clash of the Sher-E-Punjab T20 League 2026, with Amritsar Soormas taking on Mohali Kings at the I.S. Bindra Stadium, Mohali, on August 30. Organised by the Punjab Cricket Association (PCA), the tournament will bring together some of Punjabs established names and promising young cricketers. As the two teams prepare for the opening game, both coaches believe the contest will come down to execution and handling pressure on the big day. Amritsar Soormas coach Sandeep Sanwal stressed the need to respect the opposition and stick to the teams plans. We cannot underestimate the opposition. We have our own strategy and tactics, and we will look to execute them well. At the same time, the opposition will also have quality players who can change the game. Mohali Kings coach Harwinder Singh also revealed that his team will look to put pressure on Amritsars key players. I dont think I should reveal our strategy, but we will definitely target their strong points. Their batting is quite strong. So, our focus will be to tackle those key players as quickly and effectively as possible, so that the rest of the team can be put under pressure. Beyond the opening contest, both coaches believe the Sher-E-Punjab T20 League can play an important role in developing the next generation of cricketers in the state. Sanwal feels the competition has all the ingredients to become one of the leading domestic T20 leagues in the country. I think the Sher-e-Punjab League can become one of the best leagues in India. We have seen leagues in different parts of the country, but Punjab has a lot of quality because most of our players are already playing in the IPL. We have also been champions in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, and our performances have continued to improve, he said. The talent at the grassroots level in Punjab is tremendous. The youngsters are very talented, and this league gives them a good opportunity and a proper platform to showcase themselves, he added. Sanwal also highlighted the mix of youth and experience in the Amritsar Soormas squad. We have three fast bowlers from the Under-19 setup. Apart from them, there is Shubham Rana, who is an exciting young bowler. We also have an established and experienced bowler in Mayank Markande. So, the combination of youngsters and experienced players is very good. Harwinder, meanwhile, pointed to the value of having experienced players around young cricketers. Ramandeep is helping the batters. When Raman is batting at one end and a youngster is batting at the other, he can guide him through the game and share his experience. That kind of exposure is invaluable for young players, Harwinder noted. Harwinder believes the league can also give lesser-known players an opportunity to get noticed by IPL teams. The biggest benefit of the Sher-e-Punjab League is that it gives visibility to young and relatively unseen players. They may be playing junior BCCI tournaments, and those of us from the cricket fraternity know about them, but IPL franchises may not have seen them yet, he said. Harwinder believes the league can also give lesser-known players an opportunity to get noticed by IPL teams.

'PM Modi Always Stands With Athletes': Arundhati Chaudhary After Khelo India Dialogue
Prime Minister Narendra Modi: The 2026 Commonwealth Games gold medallist Arundhati Chaudhary on Thursday attended the 'Khelo India Dialogue', a virtual address by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Chaudhary reacted to Modi's address to the youth as she highlighted that the PM is standing with the athletes at all times, be it a win or a loss. Through this event, the youth would have got a glimpse that PM Modi always stands with the youth, whether they win or lose. Whenever we return from a competition, the PM interacts with us. He discusses our wins and losses. If we lose, he motivates us not to bog down and keep working hard, she said after attending the virtual briefing. Students of Punjabi University also shared their experiences at the event. B.Tech student Anshul Auluwalia said the 'Khelo India Dialogue' allowed him to learn about the changes taking place in sports and the governments sports policies. Meanwhile, university student and NSS volunteer Khushdeep Kaur said hearing about athletes' struggles, injuries, and experiences from their sporting careers was highly motivating for the students. She said the hard work and determination of athletes are an inspiration for young people. B.Tech student Gauri said she had stopped playing sports some time ago, but after participating in the 'Khelo India' program, she once again felt motivated to return to sports. She said that students should participate in sports alongside their studies. During his address, the Prime Minister called for India to broaden its participation across Olympic disciplines, saying the country must develop athletes in sports where it has traditionally had little or no representation, as part of preparations for the 2036 Olympics. Addressing the youngsters, Modi said a nationwide talent hunt targeting children aged 5 to 15 would be crucial for identifying athletes early and training them in sports suited to their abilities. This time, from the Red Fort, I drew the country's attention to a major challenge in sports. This challenge is related to the Olympics. The bitter truth is that India's teams don't participate in half of the sports that are a part of the Olympics, he said. PM Modi said India's limited participation had remained a longstanding concern and directly affected the country's prospects in the overall medal standings. That is, we do not compete for a very large part of the medal tally. And this has been the situation for a long time now. In the 2012 Olympics, India participated in only 13 sports. In more than 20 sports, India did not participate. This time, from the Red Fort, I drew the country's attention to a major challenge in sports. This challenge is related to the Olympics. The bitter truth is that India's teams don't participate in half of the sports that are a part of the Olympics, he said. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories There are so many sports whose names people in the country have probably heard of. Other countries win medals in those sports. And we do not participate in those sports. We have to acquire the skills in these sports to increase the medal tally in these sports as well. For example, surfing and sports climbing, he added.

She recalled that Santoshi made her first day particularly challenging by giving her one of the films toughest scenes. He (director Santoshi) tortured me on day one by putting the most difficult scene of the film on the first day. So I was just looking at him (Sunny Deol), and I was shaking ki abhi main kya karoon (what do I do know)? He is a wonderful, big-hearted, kind, decent, good human being to work with because he really was like, Dont worry, he loves retakes. Kuch khaayegi (Will you eat something)?
