Dr DY Patil Sports Academy Pitch Report

The Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy features a classic batting paradise defined by its hard, flat surface and consistent bounce. In this evening match, the ball should come onto the bat smoothly, enabling aggressive stroke-play. While the red soil provides pacers with some early swing and carry, the combination of short boundaries and a rapid outfield creates a significant advantage for the batting side.

History suggests that dew will become a major factor during the second innings. This moisture typically makes the ball slippery and difficult for spinners to control, often neutralizing the bowling attack as the night progresses. Consequently, the toss is expected to be crucial; winning captains will likely opt to bowl first, looking to exploit any early movement before chasing under the lights when conditions are at their most favorable for scoring.

Squads

Gujarat Giants: Beth Mooney (wk), Sophie Devine, Anushka Sharma, Ashleigh Gardner (c), Georgia Wareham, Bharti Fulmali, Kanika Ahuja, Kashvee Gautam, Tanuja Kanwar, Rajeshwari Gayakwad, Renuka Singh Thakur, Danielle Wyatt-Hodge, Yastika Bhatia, Kim Garth, Titas Sadhu, Ayushi Soni, Shivani Singh, Happy Kumari

The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) suggested a four-fold privatisation process in their recommendations on the Union Budget 2026-27. They called for faster and more predictable disinvestment. The industry body claimed that a calibrated privatisation approach would help sustain capital expenditure and fund development priorities, particularly in sectors where private participation can improve efficiency, technology adoption, and competitiveness. CII Director General Chandrajit Banerjee highlighted the role of private enterprise in India’s growth. “A forward-looking privatisation policy, aligned with the vision of Viksit Bharat, will enable the government to focus on its core functions while empowering the private sector to accelerate industrial transformation and job creation,” he said, as quoted by ANI. To accelerate the government’s exit from non-strategic Public Sector Enterprises (PSEs), CII outlined a four-pronged strategy. First, CII recommended adopting a demand-led approach for selecting PSEs for privatisation. Contrary to short-listing entities and then checking the appetite for them, it was proposed that government needs to start by measuring market interest for a larger list of entities and short-list those with better interest and valuation. Second, the industry body called for announcing a rolling three-year privatisation pipeline in advance. According to CII, greater visibility would give investors time to plan, deepen participation, and improve price discovery. Third, CII proposed setting up a dedicated institutional mechanism to oversee privatisation. This would include a ministerial board for strategic direction, an advisory panel of industry and legal experts, and a professional execution team to handle due diligence, market engagement, and regulatory coordination. Fourth, acknowledging that complete privatisation is complex and time-consuming, CII suggested a calibrated disinvestment route as an interim measure. The government could initially reduce its stake in listed PSEs to 51 per cent, retaining management control, and later bring it down further to between 33 per cent and 26 per cent. CII estimated that lowering government ownership to 51 per cent in 78 listed PSEs could unlock nearly Rs 10 lakh crore. In the first two years, disinvestment in 55 PSEs could raise about Rs 4.6 lakh crore, followed by Rs 5.4 lakh crore from 23 additional enterprises. “A calibrated reduction of government stake balances strategic control with value creation,” Banerjee said, adding that the proceeds could fund healthcare, education, green infrastructure, and fiscal consolidation while maintaining control in strategic sectors. The Union Budget for 2026–27 will be presented on February 1.

IND vs NZ Live Score, 1st ODI: India will bank heavily on the rich vein of form of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma as the hosts, at full strength, take on a revamped New Zealand side in the opening ODI of the three-match series on Sunday. Even with the T20 World Cup less than a month away, the spotlight over the next week will firmly be on the senior duo as India look to build momentum in the 50-over format.

Kohli and Rohit have not lacked match practice, having turned out in the Vijay Hazare Trophy league stage and piled on the runs, reinforcing their enduring value in the format. Their performances have ensured that India enter the series with confidence at the top of the order.

Attention will also be on captain Shubman Gill, whose return comes amid scrutiny after his omission from the T20 World Cup squad. Injuries limited his involvement against South Africa late last year, and his response in this series could be crucial. Gill’s inclusion is likely to push Yashasvi Jaiswal out of the top order, despite the latter scoring his maiden ODI century in the previous series.

The comeback of Shreyas Iyer is expected to bring stability to the middle order, with the 31-year-old set to reclaim his preferred No. 4 position after a phase of experimentation. KL Rahul is likely to continue in the dual role of wicketkeeper and lower-order batter after Rishabh Pant ruled of the series due to injury.

The series opener marks the first men’s international at the new Baroda Cricket Association Stadium in Kotambi.

For New Zealand, the series offers a platform to test depth despite missing several frontline players. Mitchell Santner is sidelined with a groin injury, Tom Latham is away for family reasons and Kane Williamson is on SA20 duty. Michael Bracewell will captain the side, with eyes on Kyle Jamieson, Adithya Ashok and a batting group that still features Devon Conway, Daryl Mitchell, Henry Nicholls, Will Young and Glenn Phillips.

Teams (from):
India: Shubman Gill (c), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul (wk), Rishabh Pant (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Washington Sundar, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Prasidh Krishna, Mohammed Siraj, Harshit Rana.

New Zealand: Michael Bracewell (c), Devon Conway (wk), Mitchell Hay (wk), Nick Kelly, Henry Nicholls, Will Young, Josh Clarkson, Zak Foulkes, Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips, Adithya Ashok, Kristian Clarke, Kyle Jamieson, Jayden Lennox, Michael Rae.

NEW DELHI: The Rashtriya Janata Dal on Sunday took a jibe at Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar amid a growing push to honour him with the country’s highest civilian award, the Bharat Ratna.RJD MP Sudhakar Singh said that despite being ill, Nitish Kumar has served as Bihar’s chief minister for 20 years, which makes him worthy of an honour.“Nitish Kumar is undoubtedly a ‘Ratna’. There is no doubt about that. But I cannot say which one,” the RJD MP said.“Running a government for 20 years while being ill proves that he is a ‘Ratna’,” he added.This comes after Union minister Jitan Ram Manjhi and Chirag Paswan demanded Bharat Ratna for Nitish, asserting that he is a leader who has provided “exemplary governance” to the state over the past two decades.Taking to X, former Bihar CM and key NDA leader Jitan Ram Manjhi wrote in Hindi, which roughly translates to: “Bharat Ratna Nitish Kumar Ji… How wonderful it would sound to hear those words, wouldn’t it? We have complete faith that the esteemed Prime Minister Ji, known for stunning everyone with his decisions, will once again leave the nation in awe by deciding to bestow the Bharat Ratna upon Bihar’s esteemed chief minister Nitish Kumar Ji. Bharat Ratna Nitish Kumar…”Earlier, JD(U) leader KC Tyagi also demanded Bharat Ratna for the Bihar CM “while he is still alive”“PM Narendra Modi had conferred Bharat Ratna on late Chaudhary Charan Singh and late Karpoori Thakur. We extend our gratitude. Nitish Kumar is one of the most fantastic leaders associated with the socialist movement who is still alive. He is one of the founders of NDA. He is ‘sushasan babu’. We have urged that he too should be awarded the Bharat Ratna while he is still alive,” Tyagi said.In a letter to the prime minister on Thursday, the former Janata Dal (United) [JD(U)] MP also said that Nitish, who is a “precious gem” of the socialist movement, is worthy of the highest civilian honour.“March 30, 2024 was a day to honour our ancestors. Thanks to your efforts, they were bestowed with the highest honour, the ‘Bharat Ratna’,” Tyagi said.

US President Donald Trump has directed senior special forces commanders to begin preparing “contingency plans for a possible invasion of Greenland”, reported the Daily Mail on Sunday. The move, however, has reportedly run into resistance from top military officials who are questioning both its legality and political feasibility.

According to the report, Trump has asked the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) to draft an invasion plan. However, the proposal is said to be facing pushback from the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who argue that any such operation would be unlawful and lack congressional backing.“The generals think Trump’s Greenland plan is crazy and illegal. So they are trying to deflect him with other major military operations. They say it’s like dealing with a five-year-old,” a diplomatic told the Mail.“They have tried to distract Trump by talking about less controversial measures, such as intercepting Russian ‘ghost’ ships – a clandestine network of hundreds of vessels operated by Moscow to evade Western sanctions – or launching a strike on Iran,” a source told the Mail.Sources familiar with the matter told the Mail that hardline figures within Trump’s inner circle, particularly policy “hawks” led by adviser Stephen Miller, have grown increasingly assertive after what they see as the successful operation to capture Venezuela’s leader Nicolas Maduro. Emboldened by that outcome, they are now pushing for swift action to take control of Greenland before Russia or China is able to expand its influence in the Arctic.Trump’s interest in Greenland may also be driven by domestic political considerations. With mid-term elections approaching later this year, there is concern that the president may seek a dramatic foreign policy move to divert attention from the US economy, amid fears Republicans could lose control of Congress to Democrats,” the Mail reported, citing British diplomatic sources.Such an action would place Trump on a direct collision course with European leaders and could trigger a profound crisis within the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (Nato), potentially bringing the alliance to breaking point.ALSO READ | ‘If we don’t … ‘: Donald Trump threatens to take Greenland the ‘hard way’ – why he said US needs itDiplomatic officials have also reportedly conducted internal war-gaming exercises examining what they describe as an “escalatory scenario,” in which Trump could use military force or sustained political pressure to weaken Greenland’s ties with Denmark.A classified diplomatic cable reportedly outlines a “worst-case” outcome that would result in “the destruction of Nato from the inside.”“Some European officials suspect this is the real aim of the hardline MAGA faction around Trump. Since Congress would not allow Trump to exit Nato, occupying Greenland could force the Europeans to abandon Nato. If Trump wants to end Nato, this might be the most convenient way to do it,” it added. We want to be GreenlandersMeanwhile, political parties in Greenland on Saturday issued a joint statement denouncing US President Donald Trump’s pressure to seize the Danish autonomous territory.“We don’t want to be Americans, we don’t want to be Danish, we want to be Greenlanders,” the leaders of five parties in parliament said.“The future of Greenland must be decided by Greenlanders,” they added.This came hours after Trump once again spoke about taking action on Greenland, saying the US would have to do “something” or risk Russia and China stepping in. He said Washington does not want Moscow or Beijing as its “neighbours”.“We are going to do something on Greenland, whether they like it or not, because if we don’t do it, Russia or China will take over Greenland — and we’re not going to have Russia or China as a neighbour. I would like to make a deal the easy way but if we don’t do it the easy way, we’re going to do it the hard way,” Trump said.ALSO READ | Russia, minerals or whim? Why Trump is after Greenland – and what are his options“And by the way, I’m a fan of Denmark as well. They’ve been very nice to me. I’m a big fan but the fact that they had a boat land there 500 years ago doesn’t mean that they own the land. We had lots of boats go there also. But we need that because if you take a look at outside of Greenland right now, they are Russian destroyers, Chinese destroyers and bigger there are Russian submarines all over the place. We’re not going to have Russia or China occupy Greenland and that’s what they’re going to do if we don’t. We will do something with Greenland either the nice way or the difficult way,” he added.Denmark has also warned that its troops are under orders to “shoot first and ask question later” if Greenland comes under attack, as concerns grow in Europe over the US openly discussing possible military action against the Arctic territory.Earlier, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen rejected Trump’s claims that the US “needs” Greenland for security reasons, calling them an “unacceptable pleasure”.

A thrilling finale awaits as Sri Lanka and Pakistan gear up for the third T20I at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium on Tuesday. The series remains finely poised after the second match was washed out completely, allowing Pakistan to retain a 1–0 advantage in the three-match contest. With the visitors in front, Sri Lanka find themselves in a do-or-die situation and must win the final game to square the series.

The hosts struggled in the opener, being bowled out for 128. They will rely heavily on Pathum Nissanka and captain Dasun Shanaka to provide a more competitive total. Pakistan, led by Salman Ali Agha looked clinical in the first game. With Sahibzada Farhan in form and a balanced bowling attack, they start as favorites to take the series. Both teams are using this series as a vital blueprint for the 2026 T20 World Cup, experimenting with combinations on slow, subcontinental tracks.

Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium Pitch Report

The surface for the third T20I is likely to mirror the conditions seen in the opener, providing an even contest with bowlers enjoying a slight edge. Although the pitch supports strokeplay, the ball held up at times in the first match, which made timing shots difficult for the hosts. Records at this venue show that sides batting first have won around 60% of the games, but Pakistan’s ease in chasing the target in the opening fixture highlighted how much dew can come into play later in the evening. In light of that, the toss-winning captain may again be inclined to field first to negate the impact of moisture on the ball, particularly for the spinners.
