RCB will be back to the yard for the second round of the Southern Derby as they lock horns against CSK in Namma Chinnaswamy RCB clinched the bragging rights of the fixture hands down They will be hopeful of pulling off something similar as Chennai arrive in Bengaluru to salvage some pride for themselves with the MS Dhoni-led team out of the race for the playoffs RCB will be high on momentum as they will be coming on the back of three consecutive wins they laid waste to Punjab Kings away from home conquered Rajasthan Royals at the Chinnaswamy and vanquished Delhi Capitals to avenge their earlier defeat in the season They will be hopeful of seizing a fourth win on the trot which can provide them with a massive boost in their quest for a play-off spot have lost three of their last games which resulted in their elimination from the tournament They will be desperate to get back to winning ways and a chance to pull it off against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru gives them an added incentive of conquering the Southern Derby one can expect this to be a full-blown Saturday blockbuster considering the kind of firepower that these two teams come in with This year’s Bengaluru surface hasn’t exhibited the traits of a free-scoring one The pitch has been relatively slower and it has shown signs of spongy bounce thereby making batting a far difficult task in the first half One can expect this to be a decent scoring contest instead of those high-flyers which can come up with an aggregate score of 400 plus Virat Kohli will definitely be eyeing for the Orange Cap once again and 62 runs is what can get him to the pedestal He has been in menacing touch and his finesse in the last fixture propelled RCB across the finish line He can very tactfully manage the situations thereby making him one of the most menacing options Noor Ahmad started the campaign on a high and then has somehow drifted in and out of form for a while a prime Noor can be quite disruptive and his variations make him a fine competitor for Virat Kohli Rajat Patidar will be hopeful of getting back among the runs He is one of the finest players of spin and when the seasoned Jadeja comes into attack the two will have an intriguing contest to look forward to Jadeja has also dished out a handful of decent performances but they haven’t been enough so far expect the RCB captain to have his nose ahead in the contest Josh Hazlewood has been in excellent form throughout the tournament and his newfound momentum in the last couple of matches will make him a fine choice for RCB to bank on His middle and death over exploits laced with his lethal accuracy has been a major headache for the batters Dewald Brevis has displayed his ability to take on the bowlers as one of CSK's key batters in recent times could be a major decisive factor in this game Match: Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Chennai Super Kings This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks The

PotM | 4-0-20-2: Getting this after 2 years and I am very happy with the performance I haven't played white-ball cricket for a while and thanks to head coach and captain for keeping trust in me and telling me that I am going to be in the starting eleven I am actually working my rhythm because after having played a lot of Tests the rhythm is such that when you have to start you gotta land in the right areas to extract the swing you always feel good to get a wicket in the first over and that helps build the pressure I take my training and work ethic very seriously and feeling really well Shreyas Iyer | KKR captain: There is always tension when MS Dhoni is batting I knew momentum was going to shift towards them with the dew around It was pretty easy for me with the bowling lineup I had Umesh has worked hard in the nets and did well in the practice games too Sheldon Jackson | KKR keeper-batsman: In the start I had nerves but the management and coaching staff are brilliant they backed me and I am very grateful to them He (MS Dhoni) always has been my inspiration I always looked up to him and whatever he does I just try to imitate it and I have a lot to look and lot to learn from him Learning a lot (On playing the helicopter shot) and picking up quite a lot from him (MSD) actually Ravindra Jadeja | CSK skipper: Dew will be the vital part in this edition The wicket was a little damp in the first 6-7 overs and then it came on nicely in the back end of the innings 23:01 IST: Shreyas takes the helmet off with a smile When he woke up today even he wouldn't have imagined his side will have a cakewalk against CSK KKR ticked a lot of boxes right from the word go CSK got to 131 because they stole 47 runs off the last three overs CSK were tentative and Shreyas Iyer and Co It took a stunning assault from MS Dhoni at the end to get to a respectable score Rahane and Venky ensured a wicketless powerplay DJ Bravo tried his best taking three wickets while also being economical Rahane held fort at one end and the rest chipped in to get the first points on the board CSK will be slightly happy that they took this game deep to ensure their NRR doesn't take a big hit shuffles across the crease and whips it along the ground past mid-wicket In the gap and that is victory for Shreyas Iyer as captain on debut for KKR Physio runs for service as the sub comes on Adam Milne

unless it involves travelling to another coastline just as special The home opens up to a four-seater coffee lounge on one side and the dining area on the other “You might have coffee over a meeting in the lounge then walk across to the dining room for lunch after,” says Arora In Arora’s case, that somewhere special was Chennai—an opportunity that came knocking in the guise of a beach house begging for an interior refresh inspiration struck the moment she stepped inside “The home was oriented towards the coastline with a crystal-clear view of the Indian Ocean That’s the first thing I remember registering when I walked in,” says Arora who was assisted by in-house architects Sharmistha Desai and Shruti Manikar For little did she know that that view would ebb and flow in her mind for days and weeks to come shaping the very contours of the aesthetic lexicon that would emerge the first-floor living room is designed for both quiet reflection and uproarious movie nights so it’s a lovely little gathering space,” says Arora of the first-floor living room which often doubles as a makeshift cinema hall The bar—occupying one corner of the living room—is underpinned by terracotta flooring and framed by verdant views At the heart of the dining room is a long terrazzo table that seats up to fourteen people “Sharing freshly cooked meals is a big part of all their celebrations and occasions,” says Arora who incorporated a pantry bar for preparing fresh dosas The staircase connecting the first and second floors is a Cycladic monolith finished in nude plaster “For me, the starting point was the calmness of the landscape—and how we could reflect it indoors,” she continues, noting that the interiors were envisioned as an extension of the seascape itself, with muted tones, natural textures and a quiet rhythm that echoed the seaside lull One way to do this was sourcing materials and finishes from the home’s proverbial backyard The primary bedroom is a cappuccino-toned cocoon that cedes the spotlight to the sea view The primary bedroom connects to an earth-toned walk-in wardrobe If the lower storey was imagined as a Cycladic island retreat with patio-style Kota flooring paired with unusually thick oxide grouting, the first floor was warmed with terracotta tile to hold a mirror to the sun while the bedrooms were softened with terracotta floors and earthy brown walls to evoke With a concrete sink and exposed plaster walls the library ensuite is the stuff of Stygian dreams and zigzag backsplash give the powder room a whimsical spirit

six months Justice B Pugalendhi passed the order on a petition filed by S Neelakandan who alleged that some contractors colluded with the officials and swindled panchayat funds to the tune of Rs 1 crore without executing the works concerned Neelakandan said the issue was previously raised before the court in 2023 by one G Senthil Kumar the court ordered the director of the town panchayat to conduct an inquiry the director initiated disciplinary proceedings against the chairman and executive officer of the town panchayat and sought a criminal investigation into the allegations father-in-law of chairman Shanthi -- also alleged to be involved in the malpractice -- claimed in his impleading petition that Neelakandan's plea is unenforceable as a division bench had passed an interim order in the matter Justice Pugalendhi observed that the case pending before the division bench is only related to the disciplinary proceedings and it would not prevent the DVAC from inquiring whether the town panchayat officials were involved in misappropriation noting that the government had already granted sanction to initiate an inquiry Follow The New Indian Express channel on WhatsApp

until the last ball itself Rajat Patidar’s captaincy reign has been an incredible one so far and he made no attempt to hide his elation at the victory Rajat Patidar opened up on Yash Dayal’s incredible exploits while also underlining the collective brilliance of RCB last night He also singled out Romario Shepherd to shower out those laurels while also applauding Lungi Ngidi on a humdinger RCB debut “It was a tight game but credit goes to the batsmen the way they batted The way the bowlers showed courage was tremendous.” Shedding light on how important Yash Dayal and Suyash Sharma are it was a clear-cut thought to give the last over to Yash Last year he did well and I'm happy for him till now he has been bowling good overs for RCB That decision was 50-50 but I backed my bowler and he came good.” He then shifted his focus to Romario Shepherd who went berserk at Chinnaswamy last night “Not easy to go straightaway to hit those big sixes Patidar concluded by talking about Romario Shepherd “He is quite an experienced bowler and has played a lot of white-ball cricket and I have confidence in him three matches are more crucial and we will try our best in all the three matches.”
