Arnold Praises 'class' Padikkal And 'patient' Suthar For Being Architects Of India's Win In Galle

Former Sri Lanka: Former Sri Lanka cricketer Russel Arnold has praised the class of Devdutt Padikkal and a patient Manav Suthar for being the primary architects of India's emphatic 165-run victory in the first Test at Galle International Stadium. Playing in his third Test, Padikkal was the calm aggressor at number three in B Sai Sudharsans absence and smashed a career-best 167 in the first innings, which ensured India held complete control of the match. A crucial second-innings 44 from the Karnataka batters willow helped India get a bigger lead over Sri Lanka. Padikkal seems to be in a great zone. He just seems to know exactly what he's about. He uses his strengths really well, and that's his reach and the way he uses his feet - playing on these slower conditions and pitches are an art, actually. It might seem easy, but everyone doesn't get runs. As you would have seen right throughout the test match, everyone else did struggle. Most others did struggle, and the fact that he's confident and he's been doing really well in all formats, I think this opportunity has come at the right time so that his form also does count. But he's shown a lot of class and quality, and I reckon he's one that India can expect a lot from, Arnold told IANS in a virtual interaction organised by Sony Sports Network on Thursday. If Padikkal laid the base for Indias victory with the bat, a classical Suthar, hailing from Sri Ganganagar in Rajasthan, used his subtle changes in pace and variations to ensure Sri Lanka never recovered from the big strikes made by him. His match figures of 4-76 and 6-55 helped him outshine a star-studded spin attack featuring Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav. Arnold compared Suthar's methodical patience to Sri Lanka spin bowling great Rangana Herath. Suthar, on the other hand, is so simple, so good to watch, and I think that's his strength - being simple and being patient. On Sri Lankan pitches, we keep harping about the fact that you do get natural variations. Of course, certain spinners have a lot of skill. That was Murali, for example, or Warne. But others who have done really well have been by keeping it simple and staying patient. The best case in point is Rangana Herath, and Suthar seemed to be doing just that. Getting in there, just varying his pace and varying how he releases the ball. It was all there and thereabouts. So that was the good thing from those two. The patience of Suthar is what took him through, and that is hard to maintain, he added. With Ravichandran Ashwin retired and Jadeja entering the twilight of his career, alongside India's ongoing search for a long-term number three post Cheteshwar Pujaras departure, the emergence of Padikkal and Suthar comes as good news for the Test team. Getting in there, just varying his pace and varying how he releases the ball. It was all there and thereabouts. So that was the good thing from those two. The patience of Suthar is what took him through, and that is hard to maintain, he added.

Grew Up Watching Manchester United, Really Admired Ronaldo: Riyan Parag

English Premier League: India batting all-rounder Riyan Parag has opened up about his deep passion for English Premier League giants Manchester United, revealing that the legendary Cristiano Ronaldo was the biggest influence behind his love for the club. When it comes to football, Manchester United is the team for me. I grew up watching them and admiring their players. I loved the red jersey, and I really admired Cristiano Ronaldo during his time there. So, that explains my choice, Parag told JioStar ahead of the 2026-27 season. Elaborating on his fascination with Ronaldo, Parag stated, I've always admired one player above all others, Cristiano Ronaldo. The way he came from Sporting CP as a young kid, and then what he did in the Premier League and how he elevated it. I don't think any other player comes close. Apart from United, Parag, who captains Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League (IPL), signalled Chelsea attacker Cole Palmer as a player to watch out for in this season. In the Premier League, I want to see Palmer score the most goals. He is strong tactically, mentally, and technically. I think he needs to add more goals to his game, and that's what I want to see from him, he noted. Elaborating on his fascination with Ronaldo, Parag stated, I've always admired one player above all others, Cristiano Ronaldo. The way he came from Sporting CP as a young kid, and then what he did in the Premier League and how he elevated it. I don't think any other player comes close.

Mahipal Lomror Joins Surrey For Final Six County Championship Matches

Rothesay County Championship: Indian batter Mahipal Lomror has been signed by English club Surrey for the final six Rothesay County Championship matches of the 2026 season, with the county side bringing in the Rajasthan captain to bolster their batting and spin-bowling options for the run-in. The 26-year-old man, who has a great deal of first-class experience, is moving to Surrey as the team readies itself to play red-ball cricket again with Nottinghamshire's visit on Thursday. He has played 63 first-class matches and scored an average of 42.62 with the bat, in addition to taking 62 wickets with his left-arm off-spin. In November 2024, he achieved his highest score in his first-class career by scoring 300 not out for Rajasthan against Uttarakhand. He also played for the Mumbai Indians in the most recent version of the Indian Premier League (IPL). This transfer will bring Lomror back into partnership with Rahul Chahar, his teammate from Rajasthan, and at the same time give the county extra depth during the busy phase of the season. Surrey are at the moment going to have no access to the spin-bowling all-rounders Will Jacks and Dan Lawrence. Jacks has been kept out because of an ankle injury which he suffered during a large part of the English summer, while Lawrence has been called back into the England Test team for the forthcoming series against Pakistan. Alec Stewart, who is the director of men's cricket for Surrey, stated that Lomror's versatility had made him an important addition to the squad. With the busy schedule of international, franchise and domestic cricket around the world, Im pleased to add Mahipal Lomror to our available squad of players, Stewart said. With the loss of Lawrence and Jacks ability to bowl spin, it was important to add a batter who can bowl some overs of spin when required for the final stage of the season. We look forward to welcoming him to the dressing room ahead of this weeks match with Nottinghamshire. Lomror said the opportunity to play County Championship cricket would provide him with a new challenge and valuable experience.

Being invited to the Palace of Holyroodhouse was an incredibly proud and humbling experience, said Chef Nand. India Independence Day marked at Cardiff Castle Coming from India and building my life and career in the UK, to be invited to an occasion of this significance is something I will treasure for the rest of my life. It was a very special day. Standing at the Palace of Holyroodhouse and being part of such a prestigious occasion made me reflect on the journey that brought me here. I felt incredibly proud of my roots, my journey and everything that lies ahead, he said.

He now runs The White Hart in the village of Holyport near London and has a 25-year career spanning India, the US and the UK, with expertise in Indian, French, Italian, Mediterranean and South American cuisines. Chef Nand said he viewed the royal invitation as a celebration of his Indian heritage, his work in the UK hospitality industry and the communities he has supported. Vikram Doraiswami Honoured for Strengthening Ties Throughout my career, I have used my culinary skills and hospitality platform to support communities, contribute to charitable initiatives and give back to people in need, he shared.

The Home Minister said substantial recoveries, including IEDs, grenades bearing Pakistan Ordnance Factory markings, pistols, live cartridges, and CCTV cameras used for espionage, were made from the ISI-funded group. The coordinated multi-state operation was carried out on August 12 using a real-time intelligence-sharing system with State Police forces.
