Bid to save Rochdale's Seven Sisters from demolition takes step forward

manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Plans to save Rochdale's landmark Seven Sisters from bulldozers have taken a step forward. Rochdale Boroughwide Housing (RBH) announced its intention to demolish four of the seven towers on College Bank back in 2017.

The hugely controversial move was challenged by councillors, residents and campaigners, while many people left their homes on the estate amidst the threat of demolition.

But under new leadership following the Awaab Ishak scandal, RBH now hopes to keep the tower blocks and renovate them, the Manchester Evening News revealed on Wednesday.

Following a consultation event with residents, RBH has now confirmed it is working with an affordable housing developer to retain and modernise the iconic towers.

Pakistan Hockey Federation Bans Five Formers Players For Trying To Make Separate Federation
The Pakistan Hockey Federation (PHF) on Wednesday imposed a life ban on five former Olympians for trying to form a parallel body. PHF President Tariq Bugti said that former Olympian and internationals Nasir Ali, Khalid Bashir, Saleem Nazim, Abbas Ali and Haider Ali had been banned for life. "The PHF found them guilty of trying to run a parallel federation, stealing PHF records and using funds from a PHF account without approval," Bugti said. Since last year after Brigadier (retd) Sajjad Khokar was forced to resign as PHF chief after being in power for more than two terms, a power-struggle is going on between two groups to take control of the PHF.

"Many Infamous Records Have Already Been Created In Gautam Gambhir's Tenure": Ex-India Star
Gautam Gambhir's tenure as India head coach so far has not been a memorable one for sure. It all started with India's tour of Sri Lanka. While the visitors won the T20I series 3-0, they lost the three-match ODI series 2-0. India then thoroughly outplayed Bangladesh in a two-match Test series and a similar performance was expected from them during their three-match series against New Zealand that followed. However, what happened was the exact opposite of the expectations as the Blackcaps outplayed India in the first two Tests to take an unassailable lead of 2-0 with a match to go.

India Hand New Zealand Control After Batting Flop Show On Day 1 In 3rd Test
India's batters lost the plot in a matter of 20 minutes, leaving the side at a jittery 86/4 after Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar gave the hosts the early bragging rights by dismissing New Zealand for 235 on an eventful day one of the third and final Test in Mumbai on Friday. Jadeja (5/65) and Sundar (4/81) did their job to perfection but India's batting continued to be a weak link as the side lost three wickets in the space of eight balls, starting with Yashasvi Jaiswal's (30) inexplicable reverse slog sweep. With his 14th five-for in Tests, Jadeja also moved ahead of former pace bowling teammates Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma to climb to the fifth spot in the list of highest wicket-takers for India in the format.

"Our Batters Need To Perform": Ravindra Jadeja After 5-Wicket Haul In 3rd Test Against New Zealand
Ravindra Jadeja is happy with another five-wicket haul in Test cricket but conceded that in sultry conditions on a slow turner, bowling indeed was hardwork. Jadeja's 14th five-wicket haul came after a brief period of lull as he looked menacing while mixing deliveries, pitching it on good length spots and letting the variable bounce and abrasive surface work in his favour. However Jadeja's assessment of the track was also an indicator that possibly Ravichandran Ashwin has lost a bit of pace in his deliveries as it required more shoulder effort to get the zip off the surface.
