The US Navy has deployed a guided-missile submarine capable of carrying up to 154 Tomahawk missiles to the Middle East, a spokesman said Saturday, in what appeared to be a show of force toward Iran following recent tensions.
The 'Dhoni Review System' was once again on display as Chennai Super Kings took on Mumbai Indians in an IPL 2023 match at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday. It was the second ball of the eighth over of MI's innings when an MS Dhoni special sent Suryakumar Yadav packing. Mitchell Santner bowled a fuller ball down the leg side to Surya and umpired signalled it wide as the batter had failed to play a sweep shot on it. However, Dhoni, who had beautifully collected the ball behind the stumps realised that Suryakumar had nicked the ball and he immediately went for a review.
Ajinkya Rahane smashed the fastest half-century of IPL 2023 - off just 19 balls - and Ruturaj Gaikwad struck an unbeaten 40 to power Chennai Super Kings to a seven-wicket win over Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium on Saturday.

Australia and Delhi Capitals opener David Warner completed 6,000 runs in the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Saturday, becoming the first overseas player and third overall player to reach the milestone. Warner accomplished this landmark during his side's match against Rajasthan Royals at Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. In the match, during a chase of 200 runs, Warner scored 65 off 55 balls. His knock consisted of seven boundaries. He was trapped lbw by Yuzvendra Chahal in the 19th over. It was his 57th half-century in IPL but it did not help his side in winning the match.
On a high after Suyash Sharma's dream IPL debut, Kolkata Knight Riders are mulling playing three spinners against defending champions Gujarat Titans, bowling coach Bharat Arun said on Saturday. The relatively unknown 19-year-old from Delhi was a welcome addition to KKR's "mystery" spin lineup of Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy, as the trio claimed nine wickets between them to bowl out Royal Challengers Bangalore for 123 in a chase of 205 in their previous outing. On a pitch that aids pace and bounce, KKR would not shy away from bowling the trio in tandem again.
Smarting from back-to-back defeats, Sunrisers Hyderabad will have a lot to ponder, especially addressing their batting frailties, when they take on a high-flying Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League in Hyderabad on Sunday. For a team that finished at the eighth spot in the last two editions, SRH would have hoped for a better start to the season but they ended up suffering two crushing defeats at the hands of Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants respectively. A poor show with the bat despite some exciting players in the line-up is the prime reason behind their failure. Sunrisers' struggles to build partnership saw them score 131 and 121 in their two matches so far.
Mumbai Indians will be squaring off Chennai Super Kings in their upcoming IPL 2023 match on Saturday at the Wankhede Stadium. The five-time champions began their campaign on a forgetful note as they faced a eight-wicket defeat against Royal Challengers Bangalore. During the campaign opener, MI faced an initial loss of wickets as the top order miserably failed to score. Later, Tilak Varma played an unbeaten knock of 84 off 46 balls and guided his side to a total of 171/7 in 20 overs. However, the bowlers failed to capitalise on the big score as RCB openers Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli took their side to a comfortable win.
Rohit Sharma will like to get his act together both as a batter as well as skipper, when his star-studded Mumbai Indians take on an astute Mahendra Singh Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings in what could be safely billed as a Saturday night IPL blockbuster. Rested well for a week after their their crushing loss against RCB in season-opener, Mumbai Indians will certainly be under additional pressure in front of their passionate home fans here at the Wankhede Stadium. More so, given how ruthlessly they were blown away by Royal Challengers Bangalore in a one-sided game with Virat Kohli taking the MI attack to cleaners.
