Trump Leaves China With Big Claims, Few Details And No Confirmation

US President Donald Trump wrapped up his two-day visit to Beijing on Friday by declaring that his talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping had produced major economic gains for Washington, including large-scale purchases of American aircraft, agricultural goods and energy and medical products. Speaking before departing China, Trump said the meetings had resulted in "fantastic trade deals" and settled "a lot of different problems" in his meetings with China's Xi Jinping this week. However, the details of the deals and problems Trump has spoken about have not come to light yet. "We've made some fantastic trade deals, great for both countries," Trump said after taking a walk with Xi through the gardens of Zhongnanhai, the leadership compound adjacent to the Forbidden City. "We've settled a lot of different problems that other people wouldn't have been able to solve," he added, though he did not specify which issues had been reso...

KKR To Release Rs 23.75 Crore Buy? Ex-India Star Reveals Big 'Indicator'

Former Indian cricket team batter Aakash Chopra believes that Kolkata Knight Riders' decision to drop Venkatesh Iyer for the final IPL 2025 group stage match against Sunrisers Hyderabad was a glimpse at their strategy for next year. Venkatesh, who was bought for a mammoth Rs 23.75 crore in the mega auction, featured in the impact substitute list for KKR on Sunday but was not used by the side. During his analysis on YouTube, Aakash said that this can be an indicator that Venkatesh can be released by the franchise ahead of the next season and the franchise can try to buy him back for a lower price.

"The big news for me from this match was that they didn't play Venkatesh Iyer. He was in the impact substitute's list, but you didn't get him to bat. You got Manish Pandey and Angkrish Raghuvanshi to bat, and you played Ramandeep Singh and Rinku Singh. You played everyone, but you left Venky out."

"Is that the indicator that Venky will be released next year? You will release ₹23 crore, and then you may want to buy him back at a lesser price. That is a possibility, but I feel we have got an indicator for next year," he added.

Kolkata Knight Riders captain Ajinkya Rahane said underwhelming batting performances by key players like Rinku Singh and Andre Russell, was the main reason for the defending champions' disappointing eighth-place finish this IPL season.

Rahane said while the bowling unit largely met expectations, the failure of three-four main batters derailed their campaign. KKR's season ended with a crushing 110-run defeat to Sunrisers Hyderabad here on Monday.

"It's just that for us as a team, three-four guys were out of form. Where we faltered was at the batting end. As a batting unit, collectively, we couldn't do well," Rahane said during the post-match media interaction.

"Unfortunately, two-three players were going through that phase for us. And that was the reason we couldn't do well...But again, they are pretty much experienced enough to handle this situation.

"I'm sure they will come back stronger next year...Rinku (Singh), Raman (Ramandeep Singh), all the players, they will learn from the mistakes and come back stronger."
