ICC Eyes Big Changes In ODI Rule That Faced Massive Criticism From Sachin

The International Cricket Council (ICC) is considering altering the rules with the use of two new balls in ODI cricket in a bit to balance the game for bowlers. While this isn't a complete reversal of the current Playing Conditions (PCs), the potential change is designed to give bowlers an edge by reintroducing the possibility of reverse swing. Additionally, the ICC is exploring the introduction of in-game clocks for Test matches to help regulate over rates and is also evaluating the idea of transitioning the men's Under-19 World Cup to a T20 format, Cricbuzz reported. The recommendation is set to be reviewed during the ongoing ICC meetings in Zimbabwe. The proposal to phase out the second new ball in ODIs reportedly stems from the ICC Cricket Committee. As per the suggested change, teams would start with two new balls but would have to choose one to continue with from the 25-over mark onward.

Air Force Instructor Suffers Injuries During Parachute Jump In Agra, Dies

The Indian Air Force has suffered its second big loss in four days after a Para Jump Instructor died because of injuries sustained during a training exercise in Agra on Saturday. The pilot of a Jaguar fighter jet had died on Wednesday after the aircraft had crashed in Gujarat's Jamnagar during a training sortie.

The Air Force said the Para Jump Instructor, who was from the Akash Ganga skydiving team, died due to injuries sustained during a 'demo drop', which is a technical term for a training exercise. 

"A Para Jump Instructor from the IAF's Akash Ganga Skydiving Team succumbed to injuries sustained during a Demo Drop at Agra today. The IAF deeply mourns the loss, and extends heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family, standing firmly with them in this hour of grief," the Indian Air Force tweeted. 

NDTV has learnt that the Warrant Officer's parachute did deploy, but he sustained injuries and died in a hospital. 

Flight Lieutenant Siddharth Yadav, a resident of Rewari, had died after his twin-seater Jaguar aircraft had crashed in Jamnagar on Wednesday. The 28-year-old had ensured that his co-pilot ejected and that he steered the crashing jet away from densely populated areas. 

Yadav had been promoted to Flight Lieutenant two years ago. He got engaged in March and was scheduled to get married in November.

"I Felt Bad That My First Throw...": Neeraj Opens Up On Asiad Controversy

Neeraj Chopra clinched the gold medal in men's javelin event at Asian Games 2023 with a season-best throw of 88.88m but the win was not without controversies. The very first attempt by the reigning world champion was a massive one and it looked that throw easily breached the 85m-mark. However, the organisers were not able to measure it due to a technical glitch and as a result, Neeraj had to take the throw once again. Following his gold medal win, Neeraj opened up about his feelings regarding the controversial incident and what he felt could have been the reason behind the confusion. ( Asian Games Medals Tally ) "I was puzzled and confused, it has never happened in any competition I have competed in till now.
