नई दिल्ली पूर्व भारतीय क्रिकेटर शनिवार को उस वक्त ट्रोल हो गए, जब उन्होंने लॉकडाउन के साथ धार्मिक स्थलों को खोलने पर ट्वीट किया। कोविड-19 महामारी से बचाव के तौर पर देशभर में पिछले दो महीने से भी ज्यादा वक्त से लागू लॉकडाउन को खोलने का फैसला किया गया है और केंद्र सरकार ने इसे 'अनलॉक' नाम दिया है। 8 जून से शुरू होने वाला पहला चरण 'अनलॉक 1' होगा जिसमें रेस्त्रां, होटल, मॉल, शॉपिंग सेंटर और धार्मिक स्थलों को खोलने की इजाजत दी गई है। केंद्र सरकार के इस ऐलान के बाद आकाश चोपड़ा ने अपने ट्वीट में धार्मिक स्थलों को खोलने पर सवाल उठाया। इसके बाद वह ट्रोल हो गए। पढ़ें, कॉमेंट्री में जाने-माने नाम 42 साल के आकाश चोपड़ा ने ट्वीट किया, 'मॉल, रेस्त्रां आदि .. ये वित्तीय जरूरतों के लिए जरूरी हैं.. और शायद, इसलिए उन्हें हमेशा के लिए बंद रखना संभव नहीं है लेकिन हमें धार्मिक स्थलों को खोलने की जरूरत क्या है? ईश्वर हर जगह है.... या नहीं है?' उनके इस ट्वीट के बाद सोशल मीडिया पर उन्हें जमकर ट्रोल किया जा रहा है। एक यूजर ने तो पुजारियों की आमदनी को लेकर भी सवाल उठाया कि वे भी लॉकड

टीम इंडिया के पूर्व कप्तान सौरभ गांगुली ने बताया कि वह ‘संयोग’ से क्रिकेटर बन गए। उन्होंने अपने पुराने दिनों को याद करते हुए एक ऐप के साथ लाइव सेशन में कहा कि पहले वह फुटबॉल को गंभीरता से ले रहे थे। गांगुली ने कहा कि वह फुटबॉल को गंभीरता से ले रहे थे लेकिन उनके पिता ने शरारत से दूर रखने के लिए क्रिकेट कोचिंग से जुड़ने के लिए कहा और उन्होंने तब से पीछे मुड़कर नहीं देखा। गांगुली ने कहा, 'फुटबॉल मेरी जिंदगी थी। मैं 9वीं कक्षा तक इसमें बहुत अच्छा था। एक बार गर्मी की छुट्टी के दौरान, मेरे पिता (दिवंगत चंडी गांगुली, जो बंगाल क्रिकेट संघ में थे) ने मुझसे कहा कि तुम घर जाकर कुछ नहीं करोगे और मुझे एक क्रिकेट अकैडमी में डाल दिया।’ उन्होंने कहा, 'माता-पिता और परिवार काफी अनुशासनप्रिय थे, ऐसे में मेरे लिए यह उनसे दूर रहने का अच्छा मौका था। मुझे नहीं पता कि मेरे कोच ने मुझमें क्या देखा, उन्होंने मेरे पिता से कहा कि वह मुझे फुटबॉल से दूर करे। इसलिए मैं क्रिकेट में उतर गया।’ अपने पदार्पण मैच की शतकीय पारी को उन्होंने करियर का सर्वश्रेष्ठ लम्हा बताया। उन्होंने कहा, ‘मैंने दलीप ट्रोफी के प

Munich : Robert Lewandowski scored twice as Bayern Munich took a confident step closer to an eighth straight German title with a 5-0 demolition of Fortuna Dusseldorf in an empty stadium on Saturday. With five games remaining, Bayern moved into a 10-point lead over Borussia Dortmund, which plays at Paderborn on Sunday. Only Bayern's players and staff were there to cheer the kind of dominant win which would normally put Bayern fans in a party mood. Bayern has won 14 of its last 15 league games as it cruises toward the title, including a potential title-deciding 1-0 win over Dortmund on Tuesday. Right-back Benjamin Pavard got Bayern going on Saturday with a 15th-minute shot deflected in off Fortuna's Matthias “Zanka” Jorgensen, who was credited with the own-goal. Pavard got his name on the scoresheet 14 minutes later at a corner. Lewandowski finished off well-worked team moves either side of halftime to add Bayern's third and fourth goals. That took the Poland striker to

Charter flights to ferry US Open tennis players and limited entourages from Europe, South America and the Middle East to New York. Negative COVID-19 tests before travelling. Centralised housing. Daily temperature checks. No spectators. Fewer on-court officials. No locker-room access on practice days. All are among the scenarios being considered for the 2020 US Open – if it is held at all amid the coronavirus pandemic – and described to The Associated Press by a high-ranking official at the Grand Slam tournament. “All of this is still fluid,” Stacey Allaster, the US Tennis Association’s chief executive for professional tennis, said in a telephone interview Saturday. “We have made no decisions at all.” With that caveat, Allaster added that if the USTA board does decide to go forward with the Open, she expects it to be held at its usual site and in its usual spot on the calendar. The main draw is scheduled to start 31 August. “We continue to be, I would say, 150 percent focused on

Chennai : Former world chess champion Viswanathan Anand will be finally reaching India late on Saturday after being stuck in Germany for over three months due to the travel restrictions imposed in wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. "Yes. Anand will be returning today," the chess maestro's wife Aruna told PTI on Saturday morning. Anand, who boarded an Air India flight (AI-120) from Frankfurt on Friday night will reach Bengaluru via Delhi. He is expected to reach Bengaluru at 1.15 pm.

UEFA is planning to move the Champions League final away from Istanbul and is considering other locations as planning and scheduling is shaken up by the coronavirus pandemic.

The Champions League round of 16 has yet to be fully completed. The Champions League final was due to be staged this Saturday — 30 May — at Ataturk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul.

Freiburg : Kai Havertz scored his fifth goal since the Bundesliga restart to lift Bayer Leverkusen to a 1-0 win over Freiburg and back into the thick of the Champions League qualifying fight on Friday. The 20-year-old Havertz stretched to prod in Leon Bailey's pass in the 54th minute after Leverkusen spent much of the game fruitlessly passing around the Freiburg defense. That made him the first player ever to score 35 career Bundesliga goals before his 21st birthday. Havertz's teammates hurried over to celebrate with hugs, not the elbow bumps the league prefers for reasons of social distancing. Leverkusen moved up two places to third with the win, bouncing back from losing to VfL Wolfsburg 4-1 on Tuesday. RB Leipzig dropped to fourth, with Borussia Monchengladbach down to fifth. Freiburg was eighth and hasn't won any of its four games since the league restarted. Freiburg could have snatched the lead in the 43rd after being on the defensive for most of the first half.

Former skipper Kumar Sangakkara believes missing Angelo Mathews due to an injury hurt Sri Lanka badly in the summit clash of the 2011 World Cup, which hosts India won after a gap of 28 years. Having played a key role in their thrilling semi-final win against New Zealand, Mathews was forced out of the final against India at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium by a quadriceps muscle injury. Reflecting on the six-wicket loss to India, the former Sri Lankan captain said Mathews' injury forced him to opt for a 6-5 combination and was also the reason behind his decision to bat first after winning the toss. "In that WC final, that's the biggest thing I look back and think...You can talk about drop catches and all of that happens. But the composition of the side and the fact that we were forced to make the change was to me the turning point," Sangakkara said in the latest episode of Instagram series 'Reminisce with Ash' hosted by India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin.

विराट कोहली (Virat Kohli) और इंडियन प्रीमियर लीग (IPL) की जब भी बात होगी तो 29 मई, 2016 को खेले एक खिताबी मुकाबले की चर्चा जरूर होगी। यह मैच विराट कोहली की कप्तानी वाली रॉयल चैलेंजर्स बैंगलोर (Royal Challengers Bangalore) और सनराइजर्स हैदराबाद (Sunrisers Hyderabad) के बीच बेंगलुरु में आज ही के दिन खेला गया था। इस सीजन में कोहली भयंकर फॉर्म में थे। उन्होंने 16 पारियों में 4 शतकों की मदद से 973 रन बनाए थे, जो रेकॉर्ड है। हालांकि, उनकी टीम खिताबी मुकाबले में एसआरएच से हार गई थी और उसका पहला खिताब जीतने का सपना टूट गया था। बैंगलोर और हैदराबाद, दोनों टीमों के कप्तान बेजोड़ फॉर्म में थे। इस सीजन में विराट कोहली ने सबसे अधिक 973 रन बनाए थे, जिसमें 4 शतक और 7 अर्धशतक शामिल थे। यह किसी भी एक सीजन में बनाया गया सबसे अधिक रन और शतक का रेकॉर्ड है। दूसरी ओर, डेविड वॉर्नर ने 17 पारियों में 9 अर्धशतकों की मदद से 848 रन बनाए थे। मैच में टॉस डेविड वॉर्नर की कप्तानी वाली टीम सनराइजर्स हैदराबाद ने जीता और पहले बैटिंग का फैसला किया। यह मुकाबला दोनों के लिए अहम था, क्योंकि दोनों के पास ही पहली बार चैंपि

Legendary English all-rounder Ian Botham says captain Virat Kohli is the "right guy" to take Indian cricket forward but rates Ben Stokes as the world's best player at the moment. "Virat takes the game to the opposition, he takes a stand for his players. I would have loved to play against him. He is the right guy to take Indian cricket forward," Botham said during an online chat session with Playwrite Foundation.

Botham had his take on the debate around the best all-rounder between former player Andrew Flintoff and England's World Cup hero Ben Stokes.

Melbourne : Cricket Australia is bracing for the “very high risk” of the men’s T20 World Cup being postponed and the resulting financial hit during the coronavirus pandemic. Australia is scheduled to host the tournament in October and November but with global travel restrictions in place, it’s very doubtful the event will go ahead. And if it does, it’s unlikely crowds will be allowed in stadiums because of social distancing requirements. “We have been hopeful all along that it could be staged in October-November but you would have to say there’s a very high risk about the prospect of that happening,” Cricket Australia chief executive Kevin Roberts said on Friday. Roberts is more confident about a four-Test series against India going ahead, starting at the Gabba in Brisbane on 3 December. But while that would deliver much-needed broadcast revenue, it would also come at a cost of millions for extra “biosecurity measures that we need to put in place to deliver the season." Crick

Berlin : RB Leipzig missed the chance to move second in the Bundesliga after visiting Hertha Berlin scored a late equaliser in a 2-2 draw on Wednesday. The home side was leading 2-1 despite being down to 10 men — and ahead of Borussia Dortmund on goal difference — until Krzysztof Piatek’s 82-minute penalty ensured Hertha stayed unbeaten in three games under new coach Bruno Labbadia. Leipzig remained third, two points behind second-placed Dortmund. The game was played amid the Bundesliga’s tight controls against the coronavirus with no fans present to reduce the risk of contributing to the outbreak. The league was only given permission to resume on 16 May after promising to enforce strict measures against the virus through the end of the season. The sight of substitutes and non-playing team officials wearing face masks, and balls and seats being disinfected, has become commonplace in the league during the three rounds since it resumed.

Paris : Formula One teams will be limited to spending $145 million next season and even less in following years, after motorsport's governing body approved a budget cap on Wednesday. FIA said in a statement that the cap will be scaled down to $140 million in 2022 and $135 million for 2023-2025, based on a 21-race season. It excludes driver salaries and engine costs. “Formula 1 wins today. This is a crucially important moment for our sport,” said McLaren team chief executive Zak Brown, who had pushed for a lower cap. “F1 has been financially unsustainable for some time, and inaction would have risked the future of F1 and its participants.” F1′s finances have taken a significant hit with the first 10 races of the season either canceled or postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic. Figures released by F1 owner Liberty Media this month showed first-quarter revenue of $39 million compared to $246 million for the same period last year. F1 had debts of $2.9 billion, offset by pro

Daniel Chopra is as gracious as he is talented. The Indo-Swede, two-time winner on the PGA Tour, and who also works as a commentator at some Majors, opened his heart and doors for Jazz Janewattananond, and his caddie, Camp Pulit. Even as Jazz waits it out for the lockdown to end and the PGA Tour to resume, he has been staying with Chopra, his wife, Samantha and their two children, Coco and Casper. Jazz’s caddie, according to Chopra, is a great cook. So they all feast on some excellent Thai food, while Jazz stays and practises with Chopra. The 24-year-old Jazz, ranked 39th in the world when the rankings were frozen mid-March, will be among the players returning to action at the Charl Schwab Challenge when the Tour resumes play on 11 June under a new health and safety plan. He is also likely to play the RBC Heritage, The Memorial Tournament and WGC-FedEx St Jude Invitational. Jazz hopes those starts will help him secure membership on the PGA Tour. He can also look forward to three o

नई दिल्ली महेंद्र सिंह धोनी की रिटायरमेंट की खबरें अभी शांत होती नजर नहीं आ रही हैं। बुधवार रात को अचानक टि्वटर पर धोनी के रिटायमेंट की खबरें ट्रेंड करने लगीं। #DhoniRetiers टॉप ट्रेंड में आ गया। ऐसा लगा कि लॉकडाउन के दौरान ही टीम इंडिया के पूर्व कप्तान क्रिकेट से विदा ले लेंगे। पर जल्द ही उनकी पत्नी साक्षी ने मोर्चा संभाला और धोनी की रिटायरमेंट की खबरे उड़ा रहे लोगों का करारा जवाब दिया। हालांकि बाद में साक्षी ने वह ट्वीट अपने हैंडल से डिलीट कर दिया। अब इसकी क्या वजह है यह तो साक्षी खुद ही बता सकती हैं। हालांकि इससे धोनी के रिटायरमेंट पर सस्पेंस और बढ़ गया है। धोनी ने बीते साल जुलाई में न्यूजीलैंड के खिलाफ वर्ल्ड कप सेमीफाइनल के बाद से कोई मुकाबला नहीं खेला है। इसके बाद से ही क्रिकेट जगत में उनके करियर को लेकर अटकलें लगनी शुरू हो गई हैं। क्या कहा था साक्षी ने साक्षी ने इस सब खबरों को फेक बताया। उन्होंने कड़ा बयान देकर धोनी के संन्यास को लेकर चल रहीं अफवाहों को विराम देने का काम किया। उन्होंने कड़े शब्दों में ऐसी खबरें फैलाने वालों पर निशाना साधा। साक्षी ने ट्वीट किया, 'यह सब सि

नई दिल्ली आईसीसी बोर्ड की आज जब टेलिकॉन्फ्रेंस के जरिए बैठक होगी तो उसमें ऑस्ट्रेलिया में इस साल होने वाले टी20 वर्ल्ड कप को 2022 तक स्थगित करने और अक्टूबर में आईपीएल के आयोजन को औपचारिक रूप दिए जाने की संभावना है। कोरोना के कारण बनी परिस्थितियों में अगर इसे औपचारिक रूप दे दिया जाता है तो इस फैसले से सदस्यों को आगामी महीनों के लिए अपनी द्विपक्षीय सीरीज का खाका तैयार करने में मदद मिलेगी। आईसीसी बोर्ड के एक अधिकारी ने कहा, ‘इसकी पूरी संभावना है कि गुरुवार को होने वाली बैठक के दौरान टी20 वर्ल्ड कप को स्थगित करने का फैसला किया जाए। लेकिन सवाल यह है कि वहां औपचारिक घोषणा की जाएगी या नहीं। वर्तमान परिस्थितियों में टी20 वर्ल्ड कप के आयोजन की बहुत कम संभावनाएं हैं। मुझे नहीं लगता कि क्रिकेट ऑस्ट्रेलिया या अन्य शीर्ष क्रिकेट बोर्ड को इससे परेशानी होगी।’ हालांकि, आईसीसी ने एक बयान जारी कर इस बात का खंडन किया है कि वर्ल्ड कप को स्थगित करने पर कोई फैसला लिया गया है। उसके मुताबिक इवेंट को लेकर प्लानिंग जारी है। ...तब ऑस्ट्रेलिया-भारत मैच ऐसी संभावना है कि टी20 वर्ल्ड कप को अक्टूबर-नवंबर 2022 तक स

China has been unnerved by India’s slow but steady improvement in border infrastructure for faster mobility of its troops and weapon systems in forward areas over the last few years. One of the triggers for the ongoing troop confrontations in eastern Ladakh is India’s completion of the 255-km Darbuk-Shyok-Daulat Beg Oldie road last year. from Times of India https://ift.tt/36xYH34

नई दिल्ली आईसीसी क्रिकेट समिति के प्रमुख () ने कहा है कि स्थानीय अंपायरों की अनुभवहीनता के कारण उन्होंने टेस्ट में अतिरिक्त रिव्यू (Extra Review in Tests) का सुझाव दिया है। कोरोना वायरस महामारी (Coronavirus) से उबरने के बाद क्रिकेट की बहाली होने पर संभवत: स्थानीय अंपायर ही टेस्ट मैचों में अंपायरिंग करेंगे। गेंद पर लार के इस्तेमाल पर रोक के सुझाव के अलावा कुंबले की अगुवाई वाली आईसीसी क्रिकेट समिति ने टेस्ट क्रिकेट में स्थानीय अंपायरों और अतिरिक्त रिव्यू का भी सुझाव दिया है। भारत के पूर्व कप्तान ने कहा कि स्थानीय अंपायरों का सुझाव इसलिए दिया गया, क्योंकि कोरोना महामारी के कारण यात्रा संबंधी पाबंदियां लागू रहेंगी। उन्होंने एक चैट में कहा, ‘इस समय क्रिकेट की बहाली जरूरी है। यात्रा संबंधी पाबंदियों के कारण क्वॉरंटीन के प्रावधान होंगे। पेनल में बहुत सारे एलीट अंपायर नहीं हैं तो हमें लगा कि क्रिकेट फिर शुरू करने के लिए स्थानीय अंपायर ही बेहतर होंगे।’ कुंबले ने कहा, ‘बहुत देशों में स्थानीय अंपायरों के पास टेस्ट मैचों में अंपायरिंग का अनुभव नहीं है। यही वजह है कि हमने 20 साल पहले तटस्थ अंपायर

Berlin: The way Alphonso Davies was running up and down the left flank for Bayern Munich on Tuesday had his teammates comparing him to a cartoon character. The Canadian teenager was one of Bayern's standout players as the club beat Borussia Dortmund 1-0 to close in on another Bundesliga title, with his marauding runs a key part of the team's attack and defense. He probably prevented a goal when he raced back to deny Norwegian star Erling Haaland a scoring chance and almost created one of his own when he eluded four Dortmund players before being bundled over by Mats Hummels. On his fastest run, the left-back was clocked at a top speed of 35.3 kph (21.9 mph). “Alphonso is a player with a lot of heart and a lot of power, with extreme power,” Bayern forward Thomas Müller said. “Sometimes maybe he is not in the best position on the field, but he gets the opponent thinking, ‘Oh, I have time, I have time,’ and then, ‘Meep, meep! Meep, meep!’ The Road Runner, the FC Bayern Road Ru
