"Need To Find Balance": Ex-India Star's Take On Controversial BCCI Family Diktat

Former BCCI national selector Saba Karim weighed in on the board's SOP, which relates to the significant reduction in a player's time with family during overseas tours. He firmly believes that BCCI and players should strike the "right balance." The Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) rule limits the time players' families can stay with them during tours.

Kavya Maran's Reactions After SRH's Heavy Defeat To LSG Send Internet Into Overdrive

Lucknow Super Giants registered a thumping five-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in their IPL 2025 match on Thursday in Hyderabad. SRH, who are known for their powerful batting performances, looked completely clueless against LSG's Shardul Thakur who took wickets and restricted them at 190/9 in 20 overs. 190 is not a bad score but as per the expectations from SRH, who feature the likes of Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan and others, it looked a bit below par.
