Yere Goud becomes new coach of Karnataka team, replaces Shashikant

Former batter K Yere Goud on Thursday returned as head coach of the Karnataka men's cricket team for the upcoming domestic season, the state cricket association announced. Goud has replaced PV Shashikanth, who coached the team for two seasons from 2022. Goud, who was working as the state under-23 side's coach, had earlier guided the senior side for four seasons from 2018. The 52-year-old had marshalled the Karnataka U-23 side to this year's CK Nayudu Trophy title, a maiden occurrence in the state team's history. Now, the state bigwigs will hope that Goud, who has the experience of 134 first-class matches for Karnataka and Railways, can replicate that success with the senior outfit too. In the 2023-24 season, Karnataka had reached the semifinals of both Ranji Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy. Former state pacer, Mansur Ali Khan will continue in his role as the bowling coach.

SC stays NCLAT order approving Byju's settlement of dues with BCCI

The money that Byju's has paid to the BCCI will be kept in a separate escrow account, a bench led by Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud said

SC stays NCLAT verdict approving Byju's dues settlement with BCCI

The Supreme Court on Wednesday stayed the verdict of the insolvency appellate tribunal, NCLAT, approving Rs 158.9 crore dues settlement of edtech major Byju's with the BCCI. A bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud also stayed the NCLAT verdict setting aside the insolvency proceedings against Byju's. It issued notices to Byju's on a plea of US-based creditor Glas Trust Company LLC against the NCLAT verdict. The bench, also comprising justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra, directed the BCCI to keep in a separate account Rs 158.9 crore received by it from Byju's in view of a settlement. On August 2, the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT) had approved the Rs 158.9 crore dues settlement with the BCCI and set aside insolvency proceedings against Byju's, a move that will effectively put Byju Raveendran back in control of the firm.

Would rather fail than play safe in cricket and life, says Ashwin

Engineer, cricketer, a popular youtuber and now an author too. Parallel processing or multi-tasking comes easy to R Ashwin, who would rather fail than play safe whether it's life or cricket. The 37-year-old off-spinner, one of the sharpest minds in international cricket right now, is also a refreshingly candid voice with 516 Test wickets lending considerable weight to his views. He is currently enjoying the critical success of his book "I Have The Streets: A Kutti Cricket Story'. Co-authored by Sidharth Monga and published by Penguin Random House, it chronicles Ashwin's life till 2011 and also gives a peak into his mind, which enjoys probability analysis as much as decoding a difficult batter. "I am living my life, that's it. I am not thinking about accomplishing 'A', 'B' or 'C' (targets). I am staying in the moment. I am a creative person in general, and if I feel I want to do something, I will go ahead and do it. (Whether it's) right or wrong, is something that I will assimilate .

NCLAT approves Byju's settlement with BCCI, sets aside insolvency plea

In a major relief to Byju's, the NCLAT on Friday set aside insolvency proceedings against the troubled edtech major over a sponsorship deal and approved a Rs 158 crore settlement with the Board of Control for Cricket in India. The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT), however, passed the order with a caveat that any failure to make payments on the specific dates mentioned in the undertaking would automatically lead to a revival of the insolvency proceedings against Byju's. The appellate tribunal also dismissed the allegation of round-tripping levelled by Byju's US-based lenders, saying they failed to provide any evidence for the same. The tribunal further said the money was paid by Riju Raveendran (brother of Byju Raveendran) through sales of his shares. "In view of the undertaking given and affidavit, the settlement between the parties (is) approved and as a result appeal succeeds and impugned order (passed by the NCLT) is set aside," said a two-member Chennai bench in

Legendary cricketer Anshuman Gaekwad dies at 71 after battling cancer

Former India cricketer Anshuman Gaekwad died on Wednesday after a long battle with cancer. He was 71. Gaekwad played 40 Tests and 15 ODIs for India. He was also the coach of the Indian team that finished runners-up at the 2000 ICC Champions Trophy. Gaekwad was undergoing treatment for blood cancer at the King's College Hospital in London before returning back to the country last month. The BCCI gave Rs 1 crore for Gaekwad's treatment and members of the 1983 World Cup-winning team also did their bid to help the cricketer. Gaekwad has also played 205 first-class matches in a career spanning 22 years. He later took over as coach of the Indian team. His glorious moments came at Sharjah in 1998 and in a Test match at Ferozeshah Kotla when Anil Kumble took all 10 wickets in an innings against Pakistan in 1999.

A replacement will be named shortly by Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC).
