RBI lifts ban on on-boarding of new customers through Bank of Baroda's mobile app

The Reserve Bank has lifted the six-month-old ban it imposed on the second largest public sector lender Bank of Baroda from on-boarding new customers through its mobile app citing regulatory breaches and weak security systems. The Reserve Bank had in October 2023 ordered Bank of Baroda to immediately stop on-boarding new customers through its mobile app Bob World. In an exchange filing, the bank said, The Reserve Bank, vide a letter dated May 8, conveyed to us its decision to lift the restrictions on Bob World with immediate effect. As such the bank is free to onboard customers through this app in accordance with the applicable guidelines and extant regulations. Accordingly, the statement further said the bank will now resume on-boarding new customers through the app. The RBI action came after it was reportedly found that last July some BoB officials linked bank accounts to unrelated mobile numbers to achieve their sales on-boarding targets mainly in the Bhopal zone. The bank launched the app in late 2021 and the management reportedly set a stiff target for its sales staff. RBI governor meets stakeholders to further widen UPI reach Later, media reports said that bank employees in Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat and Jharkhand also adopted the same modus operandi adopted by the Bhopal zone employees to achieve the targets. When the news came out, the bank issued a statement denying any wrongdoing saying the use of unauthenticated mobile numbers for boosting app registrations is not possible as one mobile number can be counted with only one mobile app at any point in time. The bank targets only active users who can get on-boarded only through the system controls in place, rather than mobile app downloads or registrations, it said. However, later when the RBI imposed the curbs, it claimed that it has adopted corrective measures to address the concerns highlighted by the regulator, and would take further steps to plug any remaining gaps. It may be noted that since the pandemic, the RBI has been focusing a lot on the risk management systems of banks and other regulated entities, as with the pandemic driven lockdowns, most payments went online, leading to increased stress on their payments and settlement infrastructure. The first to be hit with the regulatory hardball was HDFC Bank in December 2020 when it ordered the largest credit card issuer to stop issuing new cards. Then last year it asked Bajaj Finance to stop acquiring new customers through its mobile app and later at the end of January, it ordered Paytm Payments Bank to virtually shut shop for breaching many regulatory firewalls. Then came the order on IIFL to stop new gold loans and JM Financial to cease lending against shares and finally late last month ordering Kotak Mahindra Bank to forthwith stop issuing credit cards as well as putting a ban on acquiring customers through any of its digital channels as well as through the mobile app.

Celebrating the Legacy of Maharana Pratap: A Tale of Bravery and Resilience

In the annals of Indian history, certain names resonate with valor, sacrifice, and unyielding patriotism. Among these luminaries stands Maharana Pratap, a legendary figure whose indomitable spirit continues to inspire generations. As we commemorate his birth anniversary on May 9th, we delve into the life and legacy of this heroic icon. Born on May 9th, 1540, in the rugged terrain of Rajasthan, Maharana Pratap emerged as the epitome of courage and resilience. His father, Maharana Udai Singh II, the ruler of the Kingdom of Mewar, bestowed upon him the mantle of Crown Prince, recognizing his exceptional qualities even from a young age. Pratap, the eldest among 25 sons, was destined to lead his people through tumultuous times. Belonging to the illustrious Sisodiya clan of Rajputs, Maharana Pratap embodied the noble virtues of his lineage. His unwavering commitment to righteousness and freedom earned him the adulation of his subjects and the respect of his adversaries. His reign was marked by a steadfast determination to uphold the honor and sovereignty of Mewar against external threats. One of the defining moments in Maharana Pratap's saga was his valiant stand against the mighty Mughal Empire, epitomized by his confrontation with Emperor Akbar in the historic Battle of Haldighati. Despite facing overwhelming odds, Pratap refused to capitulate to tyranny, leading his forces with unparalleled bravery and strategic acumen. The battlefield became a testament to his martial prowess as he inflicted significant casualties upon the enemy ranks, earning the admiration of friend and foe alike. Although the outcome of Haldighati was not in his favor, Maharana Pratap's spirit remained unbroken. He refused to bow before oppression or forsake his principles for the sake of expediency. Forced into exile, he continued his resistance against the imperial forces, rallying his loyalists and safeguarding the flame of independence. Maharana Pratap's legacy transcends the boundaries of time and geography, symbolizing the undying spirit of resistance against tyranny. His birth anniversary, celebrated on the third day of the Jyeshtha Shukla phase, serves as a poignant reminder of his enduring impact on the collective consciousness of the nation. It is a day to honor his sacrifices, celebrate his victories, and draw inspiration from his unwavering resolve. As we pay tribute to Maharana Pratap on his auspicious birth anniversary, let us reaffirm our commitment to the ideals for which he stoodcourage, integrity, and the unyielding pursuit of freedom. May his memory continue to illuminate the path of righteousness for generations to come, guiding us through the darkest of times with the beacon of hope and fortitude.

Accused Sagar Pal, Vicky Gupta sent to judicial custody till May 27 in Salman Khan residence firing case In a significant development in the investigation of the firing incident outside Salman Khan's residence, accused Sagar Pal and Vicky Gupta were remanded to judicial custody by a Special MCOCA court until May 27.

Mishra said, It is unfortunate that when they were produced on April 29, there were four accused, one of whom was granted judicial custody. Today, only accused numbers one and two were produced, while others were absent. The prosecution sought their police custody without concrete evidence. The court, however, sent accused numbers one and two to judicial custody which will be till May 27 considering from May 13. Mishra further pointed out the lack of substantial evidence presented by the prosecution, aside from a purported phone call, urging for a fair trial. Mohammad Rafiq Chaudhary, recently arrested in Rajasthan, emerged as a new figure in the investigation. Mumbai Crime Branch revealed that Chaudhary had facilitated financial support and conducted reconnaissance for the shooters, Sagar Pal and Vicky Gupta. Chaudhary's arrest adds another layer to the intricate web surrounding the firing incident. The firing incident, which occurred on April 14 outside Salman Khan's residence at Galaxy Apartments, sent shockwaves through the Bandra area of Mumbai. The subsequent arrests unveiled links to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, prompting Mumbai Police to invoke the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) against all involved in the shooting. Meanwhile, a lookout notice has been issued for Anmol Bishnoi, brother of incarcerated gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, in connection with the case. The search for Anmol Bishnoi signifies the ongoing efforts to unravel the complexities surrounding the incident.

IPL 2024: We're Making 'few Too Many' Casual Mistakes, Says Sangakkara After RRs Loss To DC

After Rajasthan Royals: After Rajasthan Royals were subjected to their second defeat on the trot in IPL 2024, director of cricket Kumar Sangakkara thinks his team has been making a few too many casual mistakes in their back-to-back losses in the competition. Not so long ago, RR were at the top of the points table and looked all set to be the first team to enter IPL 2024 playoffs. But the inability to close out chases in their one-run defeat to Sunrisers Hyderabad and now a 20-run loss to DC means RR have ended up on the losing side consecutively. Moreover, they missed the services of Dhruv Jurel and Shimron Hetmyer due to niggles in Delhi. Well, it's a tough one; losses happen. We've had a great run at the start of the season, a couple of hiccups here, but that's the way the tournament goes. You've got to be on top of your game. I think we're making a few too many casual mistakes. We've got to be patient with our plans, and really trust execution. If you're bowling, you've got to save the boundary here or there to try and drag a side back, said Sangakkara in the post-match press conference. Compared to fifties from Jake Fraser-McGurk, Abishek Porel and a stunning 41 from Tristan Stubbs to take DC to 221/8, RR didnt have anyone barring Sanju Samsons fine 46-ball 86 to step up with the bat in absence of Jurel and Hetmyer. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Jos Buttler were out inside power-play, while Riyan Parag, Shubham Dubey, Rovman Powell and debutant Donovan Ferreira didnt give the desired support to Samson. With Axar and Kuldeep operating in tandem, DC forced a slowdown by giving just 25 runs in overs 7-10. Didn't really start well in the power-play, but again, Sanju Samson, Riyan Parag, Shubham Dubey, all of them really contributing to what could have been an interesting chase. But once you make too many casual mistakes and play too many dot balls as well, it becomes a little hard, added Sangakkara. With the ball, Ravichandran Ashwin, who came into the game with just two wickets in the season behind him, took 3-24 to cause a slowdown for DC. Between overs 14-17, RR gave away just 22 runs. But Stubbs takedown of Chahal via sweeps saw DC collect 21 runs off him in the 18th over, which paved the way for 14 and 18 runs coming in last two overs. I thought we bowled brilliantly through the middle of this game, Ashwin especially, and Yuzi (Chahal) showing again how good he is. But I think a few extra runs were given, thanks to some good batting at the end by Tristan Stubbs and Fraser-McGurk at the top. But even then with 220, that's about par for the course here. Yuzi bowled really well to Rishabh and the two lefties, and Ash bowled where we wanted him to bowl. Probably at the back end, we took the spin a little too deep on this pitch and that's something we can we can try and address. But Ash bowled extremely well, stated Sangakkara. With Buttler all set to leave the team at the end of league stage due to Englands T20I series against Pakistan, Sangakkara said the opener will let him know by when he can be with the side in the tournament. Well, we've got to live with it as it is. Everyone's ready to play, and are training well. We've been getting everyone ready and thinking of that contingency as well. If it happens, it happens. Otherwise, someone else will have to step up. All the England players have a deadline, and we'll be talking about it. So he'll let us know when the deadline is there. RR now have a four-day break before travelling to Chennai to face defending champions Chennai Super Kings on April 12. Sangakkara signed off by insisting it wasnt time for panic stations to be activated in the team after back-to-back defeats. We know we've got the quality in the side, and we've just got to keep training hard, getting ready, and at the end of the day, it's about execution. If you get it right on the day and you execute better than the other side, you walk away with a win. We just have to be a little bit more disciplined, he said.

Sangakkara backs Samson as India keeper for T20 World Cup

NEW DELHI: Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson has made his case to be India's first-choice wicketkeeper at the T20 World Cup, the team's director of cricket Kumar Sangakkara has said. Samson has been named in India's 15-member squad as wicketkeeper-batsman alongside Delhi Capitals skipper Rishabh Pant, who has also impressed in the Indian Premier League after his return to cricket following a horror car crash. He smashed 86 off 46 balls on Tuesday but the knock went in vain, with the Capitals winning by 20 runs at home. Samson has been in prime form with 471 runs in 11 matches and Tuesday's match was his fifth half-century of the season. Sangakkara played down the Pant versus Samson debate in the post-match press conference but made his choice clear. It's really up to Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma and how they see the combination, Sangakkara told reporters. But he has made his case, so hopefully he'll have a good run in the World Cup. Samson has been an understated leader of his team, whoare all but through to the play-offs with eight wins in 11 matches, and is third in the batting list behind Virat Kohli (542) and Ruturaj Gaikwad (541). Pant, who has been lauded for his glovework and batting after recovering from his crash in December 2022, is also among the top 10 batsmen with 413 runs from 12 matches. With Sanju, the biggest thing about this season for him is having a lot of clarity about the way he should bat, former Sri Lanka wicketkeeper-batsman Sangakkara said. There are certain stages of the game that he seems to lose a bit of concentration, which we've addressed from past seasons, he added. He's changed his mindset about the importance of rest and recovery, rather than just training all the time and being tired mentally and physically. This year is Samson's first in a World Cup squad and Sangakkara said he is a team man. He's a special player and when he's fresh and focused there's nothing he can't do, said Sangakkara.

RR skipper Sanju Samson fined 30 percent match fees for IPL code of conduct breach

RR skipper Sanju Samson fined 30 percent match fees for IPL code of conduct breach The Rajasthan Royals (RR) skipper Sanju Samson has been fined 30 per cent of his match fees for violating the IPL's code of conduct during his team's encounter against the Delhi Capitals in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday. Sanju Samson, captain, of Rajasthan Royals has been fined 30 per cent of his match fees for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct during Match 56 of the TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 against Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi on May 07, 2024, an official IPL statement stated. Samson, who top-scored for RR with 86 off 46 balls, was caught at long-on by Shai Hope off Mukesh Kumar's bowling in the 16th over of their 222-run chase. Hope caught the ball near to the boundary edge and briefly stumbled before establishing his balance. Unsure whether his foot hit the boundary cushions, the on-field umpires took the help of TV umpire Michael Gough, who determined that Hope caught the catch cleanly. Samson then had a lengthy talk with on-field umpires KN Ananthapadmanabhan and Ulhas Gandhe before leaving the pitch. Samson committed a Level 1 offence under Article 2.8 of the IPL's Code of Conduct. He admitted to the offence and accepted the Match Referee's sanction. For Level 1 breaches of the Code of Conduct, the Match Referee's decision is final and binding, the statement further read. The dismissal was the turning point in the match, with RR's prospects of exceeding their mark relying completely on Samson's shoulders - they needed 60 off 27 balls before he was removed. Rajasthan-based franchise head coach Kumar Sangakkara spoke about the controversial decision and said that it is difficult for a third umpire to judge. It depends on replays and angles, and sometimes you think the foot's touched. But it is a difficult one for the third umpire to judge. The game was at a crucial stage, so that happens in cricket. We have different perspectives on it. At the end of the day, you have to stand by that decision in terms of what the umpires did. If we have any other kind of opinion on it, we will share it with the umpire and sort it out. But irrespective of that dismissal, we still should have probably seen that game home, Sangakkara said in the post-match press conference. The Capitals assistant coach lauded Hope following his brilliant effort to dismiss the RR skipper saying that he anticipated really well. In IPL some moments are very crucial, and it [Hope's catch] was a deciding moment in the game. Sanju was batting so well. We have to give credit to the way Hope judged that catch, he balanced himself [well] with that. Umpires are there, and there is so much technology. Once he is given out by the third umpire, it was more [clear]. We also thought from the dugout that he has [touched the boundary cushions] but it [happens] in the game, and the umpire's decision is the final decision. It wasn't an easy catch, it was really travelling. After the game also I spoke [to Hope], he anticipated that very well, but he said the ball came very, very fast, Amre said. (ANI)

IPL 2024: 'Irrespective Of Samson's Dismissal, RR Should Have Won', Says Sangakkara

Arun Jaitley Stadium: After losing to Delhi Capitals by 20 runs at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in IPL 2024, Kumar Sangakkara, the director of cricket at Rajasthan Royals, believes his team should have won the match despite the dramatic dismissal of captain Sanju Samson. Samson slammed a scintillating 46-ball 86, where he was timing all of his eight fours and six sixes like a dream. His fine knock came to an end on the fourth ball of the 16th over in dramatic circumstances when Shai Hope took a screamer of a catch at long-on, balancing himself just millimetres before the boundary ropes off Mukesh Kumar. The third umpire Michael Gough checked a couple of angles without finding evidence of Hopes boots coming in contact with the boundary rope, with the decision given as out. Samson had begun walking back after seeing the replays, but on seeing OUT flashed on the screen, he walked up to the umpires in protest and even tried to take a review, but it was in vain. It depends on replays and angles; sometimes you think the foot has touched. It is a difficult one for third umpire to judge. The game was at a crucial stage; what happens in cricket is you have different perspectives. At the end of the day, you have to abide by the decision third umpire has made. If we have some other kind of opinion, we will share and sort it out with the umpires. Irrespective of that dismissal, we should have won the game. But Delhi played really well and fought till the end. They were very smart with their bowling at the back-end, said Sangakkara in the post-match press conference. Later on, Samson was fined 30 per cent of his match fees for a Level 1 offence under Article 2.8 of the IPL's Code of Conduct, which talks about showing dissent at a decision made by the umpires. On-field umpires have to go by what TV umpire say. At the end of the day, all the players have to abide by it. There's a lot of pressure out in the middle on players and officials, so we try to sort it out the best way we can, added Sangakkara. Pravin Amre, the DC assistant coach, praised Hopes athletic effort at the deep to take Samsons catch. In IPL, some momentums are very crucial and it was a decider moment in the game. Sanju was batting so well in the game and we have to give credit to the way Hope judged and balanced for the catch. Plus, umpires are there, so theres a lot of technology, and their decision is the final decision. I will give credit to Hope as it wasnt an easy catch. I spoke to him after the game and he said he anticipated it as the ball came very, very fast, he said. With 471 runs in 11 matches, Samson has been consistently amongst the runs for RR, including hitting five half-centuries, to be at third place in the Orange cap race. Amassing runs at a consistent rate was broadly identified as an issue with Samson in past seasons, something which is on display this season, apart from not being dismissed by spin and more importantly, upping his strike-rate whenever needed, as said by Sangakkara. The biggest thing about this season for Sanju is, he's having a lot of clarity about the way he should bat. There are certain stages of the game that he seems to lose a little bit of concentration, which we've addressed from past seasons. He's really bought into it and into his role, not just as a captain but also when he bats just as a batter. (He's) kind of changed his mindset about the importance of rest and recovery, rather than just training all the time and being tired mentally and physically. So he's really enjoying that. The rest is just his exceptional ability. He's a very special player and when he is fresh and focused, there's nothing that he really can't do. I think his qualities are exceptional. He is a very humble, grounded guy. Not much on social media, he likes his privacy. He really cares for the rest of the group. So those are great qualities to have apart from his talent and skill. So, I think, he'd be exceptional in that group going into the World Cup. Again, he's just exceptionally talented against both pace and spin. High pace doesn't bother him, turn doesn't bother him. It's just the case of focusing and trusting the areas that he scores in and really keeping the intent going. It's not just about the sixes and fours, it's also about making sure a good ball goes for one or two. But again, he can play any shot in the book. He's got great power to clear the boundaries, and hes just exceptionally gifted against spin, explained Sangakkara. He signed off by not taking sides in who between Samson and Pant should be Indias main wicketkeeper-batter in the upcoming T20 World Cup. I think he's already in the World Cup squad, right? I don't know, really. Thats really up to Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma and how they see the combination. But he's made his case, so hopefully he'll have a good run in the World Cup.

CNMSports 8 May 2024 11:06 am

Jake, the reaper of runs

CHENNAI: Even as late as the second week of March, Jake Fraser-McGurks Summer plans didnt involve playing for Delhi Capitals. The breakout star of the Indian Premier League (IPL) may have probably been looking at shooting some hoops with mates, some fishing and working on his game in March, April and May. Then, a spot opened up thanks to Lungi Ngidis injury. Delhi plumped for him even if they had a stacked Aussie-heavy top-order. Whether by chance or by design, it has worked wonders. He has been electric and has routinely embarrassed top bowlers. On Tuesday, the opener continued with a breath-taking takedown of Rajasthan Royals inside the powerplay. He had made a soporific start (run-a-ball 7) as Trent Boult, one of the finest new-ball operators in the history of the league in terms of wickets, had altered the line of attack. The Kiwi usually searches for some swing early to bring the pads into play. Here, it was a nod to McGurks aggression so the seamer was looking to angle in deliveries, with the length going to be short as well as full. Off the fourth ball of the innings, Boult had hit McGurk in the unmentionables. The opener was down and the physio spent a good time working to ensure nothing was damaged. By the time McGurks work was done for the evening, he had put a big dent in the visitors aspirations of sealing a playoff berth with a win. After being hit in the box, McGurk went 401640401444646. Sure, some of those were slogs but the good thing with the way he slogs is his base, the bat speed and balance. It was in evidence straightaway as he hit through the line off Boult over mid-off after giving some room. His first six of the night also off Boult was pumped straight into the sightscreen. The front leg was already out of the way when the Kiwi bowler was in his delivery stride. When the ball pitched inside his hitting zone, the bat made one smooth arc to send the ball soaring over the bowlers head. More boundaries followed. When Avesh Khan was introduced, the 22-year-old got lucky as an inside edge narrowly evaded the leg-stump before it sped past Sanju Samson for a boundary. More good luck followed him as an uppish club just evaded the man stationed at extra cover. Avesh very quickly lost his length and JFM brought down the full face of the bat to loft him over mid-off. Sanju Samson had some words of advice but it didnt matter much as he kept travelling. In the process, the Australian reached a 19-ball 50. It ought to have been 56 off 20 as an attempted R Ashwin carrom ball was a knee-high full-toss. But he mishit the delivery straight to covers. 60/1 off 4.2 overs. The light had been extinguished against the run of play but he had fulfilled his role to perfection as DC posted 221/8 before restricting RR to 201/8 to seal a 20-run win. Having already had multiple innings like this this year, a few people expected him to feature in Australia squad but he didnt have any expectation. Theres two ways you can look at it, he told the Willow Talk podcast last week. They (selectors) probably had a good idea of what (the squad) was a month and a half ago, trying to build that, how they can get the connection in that team. Its also hard to fit in. Youve got David Warner, our best opener ever in three formats. Youve got Travis Head, whos lighting it up over here (in the IPL) and has lit up for the past 18 months. And then Mitch Marsh is the same and hes also the captain. But with Warner still nursing an injury, Marsh still convalescing back home, will they be tempted to relook at Fraser-McGurk? With more than 15 days to go to hand in the final 15-man squads, you cant rule it out. Not yet anyway. Brief scores: DC 221/8 in 20 ovs (Jake 50, Porel 65; Ashwin 3/24) bt RR 201/8 in 20 ovs (Samson 86, Parag 27; Mukesh 2/30).

IPL 2024: Porels Fifty Against RR Was A Special Innings, Says DC Assistant Coach Amre

New Delhi: In a batting line-up full of aggressive stroke-play batters, Abishek Porel left a lasting impression on the minds of fans watching the Delhi Capitals-Rajasthan Royals match on Tuesday. Granted that Jake Fraser-McGurk raced to a typically whirlwind 19-ball fifty and Tristan Stubbs sizzled with another exhibition of finishing matches to take DC past 200, but it was Porels 36-ball 65 which was the glue of the hosts innings in between to keep the scoreboard ticking. It has been quite a ride for Porel, who began IPL 2024 as an impact player, coming out to bat at number nine in DCs opener against Punjab Kings at Mullanpur. At that time, none of DCs main batters got a big knock and they needed a moment of brilliance to set a par score. Porel was drafted in as an Impact Player in place of Ricky Bhui and the young wicketkeeper-batter smashed 32 not out off just 10 deliveries, including taking 25 runs off the final over from Harshal Patel, to take DC to 174/9. Here in Delhi, Porel was tasked with opening the batting and had to initially contend with Fraser-McGurk, who carted Avesh Khan for 28 runs in the fourth over. But then he lofted and punched down the ground off Sandeep Sharma for a brace of fours. Once Fraser-McGurk fell to Ravichandran Ashwin, Porel stepped up to dazzle with his leg-side boundaries against both pacers and spinners. He got his first fifty of the season in 28 balls with a pulled six off Avesh in the 11th over. By the time he fell, he gave Stubbs the platform to script a good finishing act for DC. Pravin Amre, DCs assistant coach, hailed Porel for playing a measured knock which held DCs innings together. He made the news in our first game against Punjab (32 not out off 10 balls). It was something awesome as he wasnt getting sure of batting till the 18th over came. But then, he came and delivered. Its always gold when Indian batters score runs, so it was good to see him score big. As a coaching group, we were very happy with how he was batting in the nets. He plays against new ball very well and in two-three games he got a chance to bat up, he did well like he got 40-odd (41) against MI at number three. This fifty against RR was a special innings from him as once you get 78 runs in power-play, you get that momentum and to be there, Abishek played a very important role for the team, said Amre in the post-match press conference. Such has been the show of confidence in Porel, who joined DC as a replacement for Rishabh Pant in IPL 2023 and was subsequently retained by the franchise, that someone like Prithvi Shaw was kept out of the playing eleven on Tuesday. Winning by 20 runs is a good win on the Delhi wicket. We also wanted a leftie-rightie combination at the top and felt that Warner is not 100% fit. We cant drop Jake and wanted Porel to go up as Prithvi cant bat at places after number three. It was more of a technical call and it worked to be honest as we got 78 runs in first six overs, as on Delhi wicket, power-play is always important, added Amre. In the match, DC showed that its death-overs bowling, which has been their achilles heel so far, stood up to shine when it mattered the most by conceding only 20 runs in last three overs, and keep themselves alive in race to playoffs by jumping to fifth position. Kuldeep Yadav conceded only four runs, including taking out Donovan Ferreira and Ravichandran Ashwin, to start the time of turning the game in DC's favour. Rasikh Salam conceded only eight runs in a clutch 19th over, including bowling four yorkers, while Mukesh Kumar castled Rovman Powell in the final over. This years IPL has shown that any team can beat anyone and here, we batted well to get that extra 20 runs. We have to give credit to Stubbs as his 20-ball 41 was so important for the team to get past 220 runs. Then, RR needed 12 runs per over in their last five overs and Rasikh bowling yorkers in the 19th over was something special as he held Powell to step up for third straight time in the tournament. Again, Kuldeep bowling that important 18th over to get two wickets was so important. We do back Rasikh to come good as Mukesh is bowling well, Ishant is a veteran and Khaleel is in World Cup stand-by. But he comes and delivers for us as sometimes on the Delhi wicket, pace doesnt work as variation matters. Sometimes slower bouncers are so effective on this ground. Like in the high-scoring DC-SRH, Natarajan gave away only 19 runs in four overs. So, bowling on Delhi wicket is a work of skill, concluded Amre.

The AAP has initiated a campaign named 'Jail Ka Jawab Vote Se' in response to the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal by the Enforcement Directorate on charges related to money laundering linked with the excise policy. The party is urging people to support them in the upcoming elections as a way to protest Kejriwal's incarceration. A senior police officer stated, Our personnel are stationed at various spots within the stadium. Some individuals have been detained for causing a disturbance in one of the stands. They will be dealt with according to legal procedures and released thereafter. We advise all spectators to enjoy the game without engaging in such activities. According to an official statement from the AAP, members of the party's student wing, Chhatra Yuva Sangharsh Samiti (CYSS), protested what they deemed as the unlawful arrest of the Delhi Chief Minister during the IPL match. The students donned t-shirts bearing the slogan 'Jail Ka Jawab Vote Se' and voiced their dissent against the BJP government. The AAP also shared a video of the protest on its official social media account. The ongoing Lok Sabha elections will see voting for the seven constituencies in Delhi taking place on May 25. As part of their campaign, the AAP released a rap-style song titled Jail Ka Jawab Vote Se last month at their headquarters in New Delhi. The song was penned and composed by Dilip Pandey, an AAP MLA and the chief party whip in the assembly.

IPL 2024: Plan Was To Keep One Over Of Kuldeep For Countering Ferreira And Rovman, Reveals Pant

When Khaleel Ahmed: When Khaleel Ahmed bowled the 15th over in Delhi Capitals defence of 221 against Rajasthan Royals (RR) and conceded four consecutive wides, on-air commentators felt the hosts had missed a trick by not handing the ball to Kuldeep Yadav, who still had an over left in his allotted quota of overs. By the time Kuldeep was handed the ball at the start of the 18th over, RR needed 41 off 18 balls, with both Sanju Samson and Shubham Dubey back in the hut. Kuldeep conceded only four runs, including taking out Donovan Ferreira and Ravichandran Ashwin, to turn the game in DC's favour. After Rasikh Salam conceded only eight runs in a clutch 19th over, including bowling four yorkers, Mukesh Kumar castled Powell in the final over, as DC won by 20 runs and jumped to fifth place in points table, thus keeping their playoffs hopes alive. At the end of the match, DC skipper Rishabh Pant revealed he had a plan to keep one over of Kuldeep for countering RR's right-handed batters - Ferreira and Powell a ploy which worked well in the side's favour. The thought was always there because for Rovman and Ferreira we wanted to keep that over. We wanted to take that chance because with Kuldeep, we knew that these players are going to have problems. And as always, Kuldeep delivered - great to see that! he said. Kuldeep was named Player of the Match for his decisive spell of 2-25 and talked about how he outclassed Ferreira. It's very important to bowl in good length. That is the challenge when you bowl in the death overs, especially when you know they have got power-hitters coming up. I have seen Ferreira, having played against him in South Africa. I knew he is a back-foot player, so I just tried to push it further up. That was my plan to him, and I got him first ball. Then I was just varying the pace and the length. DC's death-overs bowling was exceptional, as they conceded only 20 runs in last three overs and keep RR to 201/8. Especially in the back end, the way fast bowlers executed the yorkers (was the turning point). Thats a positive, because the way our fast bowling has been going and the way the tournament is progressing, each and every day the bowlers are coming on the positive side, and that's good to see, added Pant. Mukesh also echoed in the same vein, saying Kuldeeps 18th over changed the game for DC. I wanted to bowl two dots in the final over. I wanted to get him (Powell) out which I did. I feel good to back my strengths but had to use variations on this pitch. Kuldeep's over (18th) was the turning point in the match. 210 was par but as the runs came, 20 was a lot for us. The two points are crucial. It was also the fourth consecutive time in IPL 2024 when the Arun Jaitley Stadium produced a run-fest. Kuldeep conceded pressure is there when bowling in Delhi, but backing his strengths helped him outclass RR. There is always pressure on you as a bowler. You try to mix your length and line. There is a lot of chance to pick wickets, and that's what I did. You have to be smart enough to bowl and read the batter. It's better to back your strengths, and just keep believing, he concluded.

Important to bowl on good length at death: Kuldeep

Important to bowl on good length at death: Kuldeep Delhi Capitals left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav, who returned match-winning figures of 2/25 against Rajasthan Royals, said his bowling approach to Donovan Ferreira was the key to his side's 20-run win in the IPL here on Tuesday. Kuldeep gave the twin blows in the crucial 18th over to virtually end the hopes of Rajasthan Royals' chase of 222. Rajasthan needed 41 from last three overs with the big hitting South African Ferreira at the crease but Kuldeep dismissed him in the first ball of his final over. ''I have played against him (Ferreira) in South Africa and I knew he was a back foot player and wanted to stay a little full and quick and got him out first ball,'' Kuldeep said at the presentation ceremony after being adjudged player-of-the-match. ''It is very important to bowl on a good length and that's the main challenge when I bowl in the death overs. I bowled a couple of seam-up deliveries to read what the batters are doing. Just the length matters for me and that was the plan,'' he said. Bowling at the death was a concern for DC but skipper Rishabh Pant was a happy man after their show on Tuesday. ''As always, Kuldeep delivered. The way our bowlers executed at the back end was the main positive and it was really good to see. We will try to learn from every game,'' Pant said. We gave away 10 runs extra: Samson =========================== Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson said Tristan Stubbs's 20-ball 41 at the death proved to be difference as they ended up giving away ''10 runs extra''. ''We had it in our hands, it was like 11-12 runs per over, it was achievable, but these things happen in IPL. 220 was 10 runs extra to chase, if we had conceded a couple of less boundaries, we would have made it through,'' Samson said. ''You have to give credit to someone like Stubbs who batted well against Sandeep (Sharma), who has been bowling very well in the last 10-11 games, he scored 2-3 sixes extra against my best bowlers who are Yuzi Chahal and Sandeep Sharma. We have lost the game, we have to find out where we lost the game and we need to keep moving,'' said Samson.

Firing outside Salman home: Lawrence Bishnoi gang member held for funding shooters

Firing outside Salman home: Lawrence Bishnoi gang member held for funding shooters The Mumbai crime branch has arrested a member of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang from Rajasthan for allegedly providing financial help to the shooters involved in firing outside Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's house, officials said on Tuesday. The accused, Mohammed Rafique Chowdhary (37), said in a meeting with shooters that Anmol Bishnoi, the younger brother of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, had given him a ''bigger task'' than them, the official said. Choudhary was arrested from Bansi village of Nagaur district in Rajasthan, he said. Two motorcycle-borne persons opened fire outside Khan's residence at the Galaxy Apartment in Mumbai's Bandra area on April 14 and fled the spot. Choudhary, the fifth person to be arrested in the firing case, was produced before a Mumbai court which sent him in police custody, the official said. His name cropped up during the interrogation of the other accused persons and also during technical analysis of their mobile phones, he said. Chowdhary's family members stay in Mumbai and run a dairy business. Chowdhary, who has studied up to Class 12, was in direct contact with Anmol Bishnoi and another gang leader, Rohit Gadara, he said. He used to work in the dairy business of his family in South Mumbai. However, during the pandemic, the dairy business shut down, following which he came into contact with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, the official said. He was recruited into the gang by Anmol Bishnoi. After joining the gang, he used to remain mostly in his hometown, the official said. When alleged shooters Sagar Pal and Vicky Gupta came to Mumbai, Anmol Bishnoi instructed them to meet Chowdhary. The trio met at Kurla on April 8, a week before shooting outside Khan's house, the official said. During the meeting, Chowdhary told the shooters to complete the task given to them and leave the metropolis. Anmol Bishnoi told Chowdhary he had been given a ''bigger task'' than the shooters, he said. The Mumbai police are now investigating what kind of task Chowdhary was assigned by Anmol Bishnoi, he said. According to another official, Chowdhary has surveyed Khan's residence several times. As Chowdhary was in direct contact with Anmol Bishnoi and Rohit Gudara, the crime branch suspects that the two gangsters are together, he said. Earlier, Gudara was traced in the UK and he may be now with Anmol Bishnoi in the USA, he said. Choudhary allegedly provided financial support to Pal and Gupta to purchase a motorcycle and rent a house, he said. The shooters had received money from various persons connected with the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, including Chowdhary, who had provided over Rs 1 lakh in cash for the purchase of a motorbike, renting a house in Panvel near Mumbai, and other expenses, said the official. Chowdhary also received money from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, the official said. One of the arrested persons, Anuj Thapan, who was accused of supplying weapons to the shooters, allegedly hanged himself in a police lock-up here on May 1. Lawrence Bishnoi, currently lodged in the Sabarmati central prison in Gujarat's Ahmedabad, and his younger brother Anmol Bishnoi, who is believed to be in the US or Canada, have been named in the firing case.
