CSK vs MI: Gaikwad Stars in Chepauk Thriller

In IPL 2025, CSK outplayed MI at Chepauk. Despite Deepak Chahar's impactful debut, Gaikwad and Ravindra led CSK to a four-wicket victory.

In IPL 2025, Deepak Chahar impressed for MI, but CSK defeated them at Chepauk, with Gaikwad and Ravindra outstanding.

In a highly anticipated IPL 2025 clash, Deepak Chahar made his debut for the Mumbai Indians (MI) against his former team, Chennai Super Kings (CSK), at the iconic Chepauk Stadium. Despite Chahar's commendable performance with both bat and ball, MI fell short as CSK clinched a four-wicket victory with five balls to spare.
Chasing a target of 156, CSK skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad led from the front with a fiery knock of 53 runs, complemented by Rachin Ravindra's unbeaten 65 off 45 deliveries.
Gaikwad showcased brilliant aggression, reaching his quickest fifty in the IPL with a well-crafted innings featuring six boundaries and three maximums.
For Mumbai, Chahar contributed significantly, taking a crucial wicket and impressively scoring 28 runs off just 15 balls. Nonetheless, his efforts were in vain as CSK emerged victorious.
Adding a light-hearted twist to proceedings, Chahar's sister, Malti, celebrated his MI debut by sharing a humorous meme on social media, comparing Chahar's situation to a famed "Baahubali" scene.
Mumbai's bowling attack, however, offered a glimpse of optimism with debutant Vignesh Puthur delivering an impactful spell of 3-32. CSK owed their successful defense primarily to Noor Ahmad's remarkable figures of 4-18 and Khaleel Ahmed, who claimed 3-29, effectively limiting MI to 155/9.
Post-match, Gaikwad expressed satisfaction with the result but acknowledged room for improvement in their performance. He noted the strategic move to bat at number three enhanced team balance.
Gaikwad also praised the team's spinners, highlighting their vital role and synergy on the Chepauk track, emphasizing Noor's X-factor and Khaleel's experience.
Overall, the match provided a thrilling start to the IPL season, leaving fans eagerly anticipating more such exciting encounters.

Tamim Iqbal, former Bangladesh cricket captain, suffered a heart attack during a Dhaka Premier Division match. He underwent an emergency angioplasty and is under observation. The BCB has canceled a meeting to support his recovery.

Tamim Iqbal's Emergency Angioplasty Update

Former Bangladesh cricket captain Tamim Iqbal experienced a heart attack during a cricket match and has undergone angioplasty. He remains under medical care, and the cricket world is rallying around him. His legacy includes a stellar international career.

Former Bangladesh cricket captain Tamim Iqbal suffered a heart attack during a match and underwent angioplasty. He remains under observation with support from the Bangladesh Cricket Board. His cricket career includes notable achievements in Tests and ODIs.

Former Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal on Monday underwent angioplasty after suffering a heart attack during a Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League match in Dhaka.
According to a report in ESPNcricinfo, the incident occurred in the first innings of the 50-over-a-side contest between Mohammedan Sporting Club and Shinepukur Cricket Club when the 36-year-old Iqbal felt pain in his chest.
Tamim, who was leading Mohammedan, fielded for just one over before being rushed to a nearby hospital.
"Initially, a helicopter was arranged for Tamim's movement to the hospital, but he could not be flown from the BKSP ground in Savar. He was later taken to the Fazilatunnesa Hospital," the report quoted match referee Debabrata Paul as saying.
The treating doctors later issued an official medical bulletin.
"He returned to us in a critical condition. We can call it a heart attack, and we subsequently did an angiogram and angioplasty to remove the blockage.
The medical procedure has gone smoothly. He is currently under observation.
"The swift coordination between the medical staff at BKSP and the hospital ensured Tamim was treated quickly," the bulletin read.
The Bangladesh Cricket Board had cancelled a scheduled board meeting this afternoon after the development.
BCB president Faruque Ahmed is at the hospital, along with other members.
Iqbal had announced his retirement from international cricket for the second time in January this year.
Earlier, in July 2023, he had made a similar announcement during an emotional press conference but reversed his decision within 24 hours following an intervention from then Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
Iqbal, who last featured for the national team in 2023, has played 70 Tests and 243 ODIs, scoring 5,134 runs and 8,357 runs respectively for Bangladesh. He has also accumulated 1,758 runs in 78 T20Is.

Harbhajan Singh's comment on Jofra Archer during IPL 2025 match sparks social media debate over sensitivity. The clash saw Sunrisers Hyderabad reaching the second-highest total in history, highlighting Archer's struggle.

Harbhajan Singh's Controversial IPL Comment

During an IPL clash, Harbhajan Singh's comment on Jofra Archer drew criticism for insensitivity. Sunrisers Hyderabad set a significant target, with Archer struggling. The incident adds to ongoing discussions about commentary in cricket.

Harbhajan Singh's commentary comparing Jofra Archer to London's taxi meters during an IPL match ignited online criticism due to perceived insensitivity.&nbsp;

In a controversial incident during the Sunrisers Hyderabad versus Rajasthan Royals match in the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) season, former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh, now part of the commentary team, stirred a social media uproar.
Harbhajan, while discussing English pacer Jofra Archer's performance, made an offhand remark that sparked allegations of insensitivity.
During the match commentary, Harbhajan metaphorically compared Archer to the rapid fare meters of London&rsquo;s iconic black taxis, saying, "London me kaali taxi ka meter tez bhaagta hai, aur yaha pe Archer sahab ka meter bhi tez bhaaga hai," implying that Archer's performance was costly in terms of runs.
The statement, viewed by some as insensitive given Harbhajan's own past experiences with racial undertones in cricket, quickly drew criticism online, with many fans demanding an apology or clarification from the former Indian spinner.
As of now, Harbhajan has not issued any response regarding the incident.
In the match itself, the Sunrisers Hyderabad set a formidable target, amassing 286 runs, marking the second-highest total in IPL history, spurred by splendid innings from Ishan Kishan and Travis Head.
The Rajasthan Royals, despite their best efforts, fell short, managing to score 242 runs. Jofra Archer struggled with the ball, conceding 76 runs in his four overs without taking a wicket, which brought his bowling performance under the microscope.

Dhoni's lightning-fast 0.12s stumping in IPL dazzled fans, aiding CSK's victory over Mumbai Indians with remarkable skill and strategy.

Dhoni's Stumping Steals the Show at IPL

In an IPL spectacle, Dhoni's swift 0.12s stumping helped CSK secure victory over Mumbai, showcasing his timeless agility and skill.

Dhoni's 0.12s stumping in IPL impresses, leading CSK to victory. His agility and preparation, praised by experts, remain world-class.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni's lightning-quick reflexes behind the stumps to get rid of Suryakumar Yadav during an IPL match here have left former Australian opener Matthew Hayden gushing about the former Indian captain's abilities, despite not being in his prime. Dhoni, 43, is nearing the end of his career, having hung up his international boots five years ago and playing just as a player for the Chennai Super Kings after leading the team to five IPL titles.
However, Dhoni showcased his brilliance once again on Sunday when he whipped off the bails in an instant off Noor Ahmad's delivery, sending Suryakumar back to the pavilion.
"He (Dhoni) was on fire," Hayden, the former Australia batter and Dhoni's team-mate at CSK till 2010, said on ESPNcricinfo's T20 Time Out.
"I mean Noor Ahmad was firing down the leg side and it was just a movement across the ball. They're difficult when you're sitting there sort of partially obscured by the batsman.
"Then the stumping was just superb, just such quick timing, great hands, good vision. He's still got it." The stumping of Suryakumar (29) was a crucial moment in the game as CSK broke a 51-run stand and eventually restricted Mumbai Indians to 155/9. CSK chased down the target with four wickets in hand and five balls to spare at Chepauk.
"The stumping from MSD (MS Dhoni) was out of the world," said Noor during the post-match presentation.
"It feels great to have someone like Mahi Bhai behind the stumps, it is a great support for me." As per Star Sports, the stumping was executed in just 0.12 seconds.
Piyush Chawla, former India and CSK spinner, believes Dhoni must have practiced with Noor during pre-season camp to perfect the stumping.
"It does happen, it is a challenge if you have not kept against somebody," he said.
"But I'm sure in the camp, he must have kept a lot of balls because if he's keeping for somebody new, he especially takes that person to the stumps and says, you bowl a few balls.
"(It has) not (happened) with me because I have bowled against him so many times and bowled to him in the nets also. But whenever somebody new comes, especially a wristspinner, he just makes sure he's keeping 10-12 balls so that he gets used to the wrist position."

The 18th IPL edition opens in Kolkata with dazzling star performances. BCCI plans ceremonies at all venues, featuring Bollywood celebs.

IPL 2025 Launch: Cricket 

IPL 18th edition launches on March 22 in Kolkata with Bollywood performances. BCCI introduces opening ceremonies at all venues, featuring stars like Salman Khan and Shreya Ghoshal.

IPL's 18th edition kicks off in Kolkata on March 22 with star performances. BCCI plans unique opening ceremonies across all venues, featuring top Bollywood stars.

The Indian Premier League (IPL) is gearing up for an exciting new chapter as the 18th edition of this thrilling T20 league kicks off on March 22 in Kolkata.
Fans can expect a spectacular start to the season with Bollywood diva Disha Patani set to perform at the opening ceremony, just before the first match featuring Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
Acclaimed singer Shreya Ghoshal will also grace the event with a performance at the venue, where ICC chairman Jay Shah is expected to attend.
In a departure from tradition, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has ambitious plans to host opening ceremonies at all 13 venues staging IPL matches this year.
This move marks a significant shift from previous seasons.
A wide ensemble of Bollywood celebrities is being lined up to perform across various venues, with stars such as Salman Khan, Varun Dhawan, Katrina Kaif, Triptii Dimri, Ananya Panday, Madhuri Dixit, and Janhvi Kapoor among those expected to dazzle the audiences throughout the league.
"The plan is to have a diverse range of Bollywood performers featured across all events, with the possibility of including two to three artists in the limited time between innings," a source revealed to Sportstar.
Organizing such a large-scale series of events does bring logistical challenges.
However, the BCCI is collaborating closely with State associations to ensure smooth execution without interrupting the matches, as noted in the report.
Besides the traditional venues of the 10 IPL franchises, a few teams will play some of their matches at alternative locations, including Guwahati, Visakhapatnam, Dharamshala, and Mullanpur. These venues will host home games for Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Capitals, and Punjab Kings throughout the season, contributing to a diverse and exciting cricketing festival across India.

Latest ICC T20I Rankings: Abhishek and Varun Shine

In the latest ICC T20I rankings, Abhishek Sharma and Varun Chakaravarthy hold top positions. Hardik Pandya is the leading all-rounder, with New Zealand players also making significant strides following their series against Pakistan.

Abhishek Sharma and Varun Chakaravarthy shine in the ICC T20I rankings. Hardik Pandya remains the top all-rounder with 252 points, while New Zealand players climb positions.

Indian swashbuckler Abhishek Sharma and mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy continued to hold on to their career-best number two position in the latest ICC T20I chart for batters and bowlers respectively.
Hardik Pandya leads the all-rounders' list with 252 points ahead of Nepal's Dipendra Singh Airee (233) and Australian Marcus Stoinis (210). Hard-hitting batter Tilak Varma and India's T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav occupied the fourth and fifth slot respectively in the rankings released on Wednesday.
Australia's Travis Head leads the chart for batters with 856 rating points with England's Phil Salt placed third with 815 points.
Abhishek has 829 points, Varma has 804 and Suryakumar 739 points.
In the bowling list headed by West Indies' Akeal Hosein (707 points), Chakaravarthy is just one point behind at 706, and ahead of England leg-spinner Adil Rashid (705), Sri Lanka's Wanindu Hasaranga (700) and Australian leggie Adam Zampa (694).
India's Ravi Bishnoi is at sixth place with 674 points, while left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh held the ninth spot with 653 points.
There has been no movement of late as far as the Indian players are concerned as the team has not played any matches since the series against England at home in January-February.
Meanwhile New Zealand's opening pair of Tim Seifert and Finn Allen, and new-ball bowler Jacob Duffy have made huge gains in the player rankings after helping their team to a 2-0 lead against Pakistan in the five-match T20I series.
Seifert and Allen got fine opening stands in both matches, the highlight being a 66-run blitz in the second match in Dunedin, in which seven of the first eight scoring shots of the innings were sixers as New Zealand chased a target of 136 with 11 balls to spare and five wickets in hand.
Sifert, who smashed 44 off 29 in the first match in Christchurch and 45 off 22 in the second, has progressed 20 slots to 13th position while Allen has moved up eight spots to 18th position with contributions of 29 not out off 17 and 38 off 16.
Duffy, who has picked six wickets in the two matches including a career-best haul of four for 14 in the first match that New Zealand won by nine wickets with almost 10 overs to spare, has advanced 23 slots to a career-best 12th position.
Other players to gain in the latest weekly rankings were New Zealand bowlers Ish Sodhi (up two places to 36th), Ben Sears (up 22 places to 67th) and Zakary Foulkes (up 41 places to 90th), and Pakistan's Haris Rauf (up four places to 26th).

Suryakumar Yadav steps in as captain for Mumbai Indians against CSK due to Hardik Pandya's suspension. MI faces challenges with Jasprit Bumrah absent due to injury. Hopes are for his return in April.

Suryakumar Yadav Leads MI vs CSK Amid Pandya Ban

Suryakumar Yadav leads Mumbai Indians against CSK as Hardik Pandya serves a one-match suspension. Jasprit Bumrah misses initial IPL matches due to injury. Mumbai aims to overcome these challenges in the opening game.

Suryakumar Yadav will lead Mumbai Indians in their IPL debut match against CSK. Hardik Pandya misses out due to a one-match ban over previous season offenses. Jasprit Bumrah is also unavailable due to injury, with hopes for his April return.

Suryakumar Yadav will step in as captain for the Mumbai Indians in their opening IPL match against the Chennai Super Kings this Sunday.
Regular skipper Hardik Pandya will miss the game due to a one-match suspension for over-rate offenses from last season. Suryakumar, who also leads the national T20 side, recently led India to a 4-1 home series victory against England. Despite the team's success, his personal performance was underwhelming, with just 38 runs across five matches.
"Surya leads India as well. When I am not there, he is the ideal choice," Pandya commented at the MI pre-season press conference.
Head coach Mahela Jayawardene confirmed that the BCCI has imposed the one-match ban on Pandya due to three slow over-rate violations by MI last season.
The team finished at the bottom of the table in 2024, registering only four wins against ten losses during Pandya's debut year as captain. He had succeeded Rohit Sharma, who had previously led MI to five trophies but was facing challenges at the time.
Jayawardene also addressed concerns over Jasprit Bumrah's absence, citing it as a significant "challenge" for MI in the IPL 2025. Bumrah is recovering from a back injury at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru and will miss the initial games of the tournament. "Jasprit Bumrah is at the NCA, and his recovery is being monitored daily," said Jayawardene.
Bumrah, regarded as one of the world's top bowlers, has been sidelined since January following a Test match against Australia in Sydney. His return remains uncertain, but there's hope for his presence in the MI dressing room as a guiding force.
Expected to join the team in early April, Bumrah might continue his rehabilitation with MI. Pandya expressed appreciation for the experienced figures around him.
"I'm fortunate to have three captains with me - Rohit, Surya, and Bumrah. They're always supportive and available when I need guidance," he remarked.

The KKR vs LSG IPL match set for Eden Gardens might be rescheduled due to Ram Navami security concerns. A grand 2025 IPL opening ceremony is planned.

KKR vs LSG IPL Match Faces Rescheduling

Due to security concerns linked to Ram Navami, KKR vs LSG match at Eden Gardens may be rescheduled. The 2025 IPL will begin with a grand ceremony on March 22.

The KKR vs LSG IPL match is set for rescheduling due to security issues during Ram Navami at Eden Gardens. The 2025 IPL will open with a grand ceremony on March 22.

Kolkata Knight Riders' IPL home match against Lucknow Super Giants on April 6 at Eden Gardens is likely to be rescheduled, as the city police have not given security clearance due to Ram Navami celebrations.
BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari has earlier announced that over 20,000 processions will take place across West Bengal on Ram Navami, leading to heightened security requirements across the state.
Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) president Snehasish Ganguly, after holding two rounds of discussions with the city police on Tuesday, confirmed that authorities "have not given the go-ahead" for the match. "They have categorically said they won't be able to provide adequate security.
If there's no police protection, accommodating a 65,000-strong crowd becomes impossible," Snehasish said.
"We have informed the BCCI, and there is still time to take a final call. Even last year, a scheduled IPL match on Ram Navami had to be rescheduled."
The clash between KKR and LSG, owned by RPSG Group chairman Sanjiv Goenka, was expected to draw a packed house, with both teams boasting strong local support.
Last season, the IPL fixture between KKR and Rajasthan Royals was also rescheduled due to security concerns on Ram Navami.
Glittering opening ceremony
The 2025 IPL season will begin at Eden Gardens on March 22, with defending champions KKR taking on Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
A glittering 35-minute opening ceremony will precede the match, with likely performances by noted singer Shreya Ghoshal and actress Disha Patani.
The event is also likely to be attended by ICC chairman Jay Shah and other dignitaries.
"It's a marquee match with full demand for tickets. Eden Gardens is set to host an opening ceremony after a long time," Snehasish said, refusing to divulge details about the opening ceremony.

Bombay High Court expedites Yuzvendra Chahal's divorce, allowing completion before IPL 2025 due to prolonged separation.

Yuzvendra Chahal's Divorce Fast-tracked

Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and wife Dhanashree Verma's divorce is fast-tracked by Bombay High Court, aligning with Chahal's IPL 2025 schedule.

Bombay High Court approves expediting Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree Verma's divorce, bypassing the mandatory cooling-off, aligning with Chahal's IPL 2025 schedule.

In a significant development in the divorce proceedings between Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and his wife Dhanashree Verma, the Bombay High Court has granted the couple's request to waive the mandatory six-month cooling-off period typically required after filing for divorce.
This decision allows the family court to fast-track the divorce proceedings, ensuring a resolution by March 20, ahead of Chahal&rsquo;s commitments with the Punjab Kings in the upcoming IPL 2025 season, which kicks off on March 22.
The legal update emerged from a ruling by a bench led by Justice Madhav Jamdar, who overturned an earlier decision from the Family Court.
The initial ruling had denied the couple&rsquo;s application to bypass the cooling period mandated under the Hindu Marriage Act. The couple, who wed in December 2020 and have been separated since June 2022, filed for divorce by mutual consent in February 2025, alongside a request to expedite the process.
Per Section 13B(2) of the Hindu Marriage Act, a cooling-off period is intended to allow couples time for potential reconciliation.
However, the court found this provision unnecessary given Chahal and Dhanashree's prolonged separation of over two years, deeming the prerequisite fulfilled in spirit.
Complications arose when the Family Court initially refused to waive the cooling period due to partial compliance with financial terms agreed upon by the couple.
According to the terms, Chahal was to provide Dhanashree a permanent alimony totaling Rs 4.75 crore; however, only Rs 2.37 crore had been transferred at that point. This non-compliance led to the initial rejection of the waiver request.
Despite these setbacks, the Bombay High Court acknowledged the considerable duration spent apart by Chahal and Dhanashree, and their mutual consent for divorce, which inclined the court&rsquo;s decision towards allowing the waiver.
Consequently, the Family Court has been directed to reach a decision on the divorce petition promptly, ensuring no interference with Chahal&rsquo;s participation in the IPL season.
As the cricket season approaches, this legal resolution provides a timely relief for Chahal, allowing him to focus on his professional commitments with the Punjab Kings.

Tanmay Srivastava, Virat Kohli’s 2008 U19 teammate, embarks on a new career chapter as an IPL umpire, aligning with BCCI’s innovative vision.

Tanmay Srivastava: Cricketer to IPL Umpire

Discover Tanmay Srivastava’s inspiring journey from cricketer to IPL umpire, reflecting BCCI's progressive approach in cricket officiating.

Tanmay Srivastava, Virat Kohli's 2008 U19 teammate, transitions from player to umpire in IPL 2025, reflecting BCCI's new approach.

In the ever-evolving world of sports, career paths can often take unexpected turns. Virat Kohli, who announced his arrival on the world stage by leading India to victory in the 2008 ICC U19 World Cup, has since cemented his legacy as one of cricket's all-time greats. Yet, for many of Kohli's teammates from that U19 squad, the journey hasn't been quite as illustrious.
As the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season kicks off, Kohli will once again don the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) jersey. Meanwhile, one of his former U19 teammates, Tanmay Srivastava, embarks on a new chapter as an umpire in the tournament. According to the Times of India, Srivastava, now 35, has secured a role as an umpire in the IPL.
Back in the 2008 U19 World Cup final, Srivastava was India's top scorer, sharing the spotlight with Kohli.
Despite his early promise, his cricketing journey diverged after a brief stint with Punjab Kings, following his U19 success. Reflecting on his career path, Srivastava shared, "I understood that was the best player I could be. I was nowhere close to playing the IPL. I had to decide if I wanted to prolong life as a player or have a longer, successful second innings."
Having captained Uttarakhand and previously represented Uttar Pradesh, Srivastava hung up his boots at 30. His passion for cricket, however, remained undiminished.
Transitioning from player to umpire, he embarked on a challenging yet fulfilling journey. Although he is yet to take charge on the IPL field, he's hopeful about his prospects.
Srivastava continues to maintain a rapport with Kohli. He remarked, "I am still in touch with Virat, but I had to decide for myself and have a practical outlook."
Upon expressing his desire to pursue a different role within cricket to Rajiv Shukla, Srivastava faced initial surprise given his young age. After exploring different avenues, including completing a Level 2 coaching course, he found his calling in umpiring. "I knew the best I could become was a fielding coach, so I decided to focus on umpiring," he explained.
Balancing various roles, including working as a talent scout for RCB and coaching at the National Cricket Academy, Srivastava dedicated himself to mastering the intricacies of umpiring. "Studying for umpiring is tough. You have to stay up late and study a lot to understand the laws and their implications," he shared.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is keen on encouraging young players to enter umpiring, shifting reliance away from older individuals with primarily theoretical knowledge. Srivastava's transition reflects this changing mindset and the BCCI's broader vision for the future of cricket officiating.

Brendan Lynch visits India for crucial talks on US tariff waivers and bilateral trade agreements, amid Trump's reciprocal tariff strategies.

Brendan Lynch's India Visit: Tariffs 

Assistant US Trade Rep Brendan Lynch visits India for talks on temporary tariff waivers and bilateral trade agreements amidst global trade tension.

Brendan Lynch's India visit focuses on temporary tariff waivers and strengthening bilateral trade ties amidst Trump's upcoming tariffs.

Brendan Lynch, the assistant US trade representative for South and Central Asia, will pay a five-day visit to India beginning Tuesday, days before US President Donald Trump's tit-for-tat tariff kicks in.
The senior US trade official is expected to hold talks with Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal besides meeting a number of senior Indian officials.
It is learnt that Indian officials are also hoping to discuss with Lynch the possibility of a waiver for India from the reciprocal tariff temporarily.
It will come into effect on April 2.
The two sides are also expected to hold negotiations to firm up a framework for a bilateral trade pact that would address issues relating to levies and market access.
"Assistant US Trade Representative for South and Central Asia Brendan Lynch, along with a team of US government officials, will be in India from March 25-29 for meetings with Indian interlocutors as part of ongoing bilateral trade discussions," said a US official.
"This visit reflects the United States' continued commitment to advancing a productive and balanced trade relationship with India.
"We value our ongoing engagement with the Government of India on trade and investment matters and look forward to continuing these discussions in a constructive, equitable and forward-looking manner," the official said.
India on Friday said its negotiations with Washington are underway to firm up a framework for a bilateral trade pact that would address issues relating to levies and market access.
India remains engaged with the US Administration at "various levels" to arrive at a mutually beneficial trade agreement, External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said.
The US president's tariff tussle has stoked fears of a global trade war with many countries already announcing counter-measures to deal with it.
Following talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Trump in Washington DC last month, the two sides announced the negotiations for the first tranche of the BTA by the fall of 2025.
In line with his "America First" policy, Trump earlier this month announced reciprocal tariffs on its partners and other nations that impose higher levies on imports from the US.
India has reduced its average applied tariffs significantly for key developed countries like Australia, the United Arab Emirates, Switzerland and Norway under recently concluded bilateral trade agreements.
Similar negotiations are currently underway with the European Union and the United Kingdom, among other partners.
The ongoing discussions with the United States should be seen in this context, Indian government sources said a few weeks back.
In its Union budget for 2025-26, India announced its decision to lower tariffs on Bourbon whiskey, wines, and Electronic Vehicle (EV) segments.
The decisions were seen as an attempt to send a signal to the Trump administration that New Delhi is open to bringing down tariffs in specific sectors.
Washington is also pushing New Delhi to buy more American oil, gas and military platforms to bring down the trade deficit that stands at around USD 45 billion in India's favour.
The US was the largest trading partner of India with overall bilateral trade in goods and services amounting to USD 190 billion for the calendar year 2023.
In the financial year 2023-24, the US was the third largest source of foreign direct investment (FDI) into India with inflows of USD 4.99 billion accounting for almost per cent of total FDI equity inflows.

Yuki Bhambri clinches top Indian doubles spot with Miami Open win, overtaking Rohan Bopanna's long-held ranking.

Yuki Bhambri: India's Top Doubles Tennis Player

Yuki Bhambri claims the title of India's premier doubles tennis player after triumphing at the Miami Open. His recent climb in the ATP rankings, overtaking Rohan Bopanna, emphasizes his impressive transition from singles to doubles, highlighting his successful journey.

Yuki Bhambri ascends to India's top doubles player with a Miami Open win over Rohan Bopanna. Now ranked 29th, Bhambri continues to impress with recent victories, highlighting his transition from singles to doubles.

Yuki Bhambri has ascended to the pinnacle of Indian doubles tennis following a memorable victory at the Miami Open, where he and his partner Nuno Borges from Portugal triumphed over compatriot Rohan Bopanna and Croatia's Ivan Dodig in a gripping round of 32 match.
The duo clinched the victory with a 6-4, 3-6, 10-7 scoreline, paving Bhambri's way to the top spot in Indian doubles as per the latest ATP rankings, according to Olympics.com.
This victory, engineered in Florida, has propelled the 32-year-old Bhambri to 29th in the live ATP doubles rankings, subsequently demoting the former top Indian player Rohan Bopanna to 43rd.
Bopanna, a seasoned stalwart who boasts two Grand Slam titles and 26 tour-level victories, had held India's doubles crown for an enduring 286 weeks since October 2019. Sunday&rsquo;s win signifies not only a shift in rankings but Bhambri's rise to form.
Bhambri, alongside Borges, is set to face off against Czech Adam Pavlasek and Britain's Jamie Murray in the impending round of 16.
This comes amid Bhambri&rsquo;s sterling performance in recent months, notably including his first ATP 500 title at the Dubai Tennis Championships, where he and Australia&rsquo;s Alexei Popyrin overcame the reigning US and Australian Open doubles champions, Harri Heliovaara and Henry Patten, in an electrifying comeback.
Bhambri's versatility on the court extends back to his 2009 Australian Open junior boys&rsquo; championship victory and earlier success as India&rsquo;s singles number one, with a career-high singles ranking of 83 in April 2018.
Transitioning to doubles in 2023 has proven rewarding, highlighted by victories over formidable opponents including top-seeds Marcelo Arevalo and Mate Pavic at last month's Qatar Open.
This recent surge adds to Bhambri's collection of titles, with three ATP 250 level victories underscoring his growing legacy in the doubles domain.

MS Dhoni questions IPL's new Impact Player rule's necessity, hinting it doesn’t significantly boost scores. Highlights Ruturaj Gaikwad's independent leadership as CSK captain.

Dhoni Critiques IPL's Impact Player Rule

MS Dhoni opines on the IPL's Impact Player rule, questioning its need and timing. Emphasizes that increased scores are due to better conditions, not the rule. Praises Ruturaj Gaikwad's aptitude as CSK's captain.

MS Dhoni critiques IPL's Impact Player rule, questioning its timing and necessity. He stresses the rule's lesser role in high scores. Trusts Ruturaj Gaikwad&rsquo;s leadership as CSK captain.

Since its introduction in 2023, the Impact Player rule in the Indian Premier League (IPL) has been the subject of extensive debate.
This regulation allows teams to substitute a player strategically, such as replacing a bowler with a batsman after bowling innings, supposedly granting an advantageous edge. However, this rule is not applicable in international cricket formats.
Critics, including former players, argue against this rule on several grounds. Some contend that it diminishes the element of surprise crucial to the game, while others feel it potentially hinders the development of versatile allrounders.
Among the high-profile voices of dissent is cricketing legend MS Dhoni. During an interaction on Jio Hotstar, Dhoni expressed his skepticism about the necessity of this rule.
"When it first came out, I felt the IPL was already in a strong position; there was no need to add more 'spice' to it," Dhoni remarked. He emphasized that the games were already high-scoring, competitive, and engaging.
Dhoni observed that in the T20 format, matches can effectively end prematurely if a team loses early wickets, tilting the balance drastically in favor of the opposition.
Given the healthy TV ratings and the emergence of talented players, Dhoni questioned the timing of the rule&rsquo;s implementation.
"In a way, it benefits me, but not entirely, as I'm fully involved with my wicketkeeping and can't be an impact player myself," he noted.&nbsp;
He also addressed claims that the rule has led to higher scores, attributing increased runs more to favorable playing conditions rather than the impact substitution. "The extra batter might provide comfort, but it's not the sole reason for higher scores," Dhoni clarified.
The seasoned cricketer, who led Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to five IPL titles, passed on the leadership baton to Ruturaj Gaikwad ahead of the 2024 season.
Dhoni, now 43, expressed his trust in Gaikwad's calm demeanor and cricketing acumen, which influenced the decision to appoint him as captain.
Dhoni discussed his approach to mentoring Gaikwad. "I told him, 'If I offer advice, you&rsquo;re not obligated to follow it.' I tried to keep my involvement minimal," Dhoni stated.
He addressed rumors that he was making decisions behind the scenes, clarifying that Gaikwad independently made the majority of tactical calls, including crucial bowling changes and field placements. "Ruturaj did a brilliant job managing the team," Dhoni praised, highlighting the young captain's competence in his new role.

Despite a modest start in IPL, Arjun Tendulkar is seen by Yograj Singh as a future batting star. Discover how his training may unlock Arjun's potential.

Arjun Tendulkar & Yograj Singh: A Cricket Transformation

Despite a modest IPL start, Arjun Tendulkar is poised for success with Yograj Singh's guidance. Discover the potential vision of making Arjun a cricket legend through focused training and mentorship, as urged by coach Yograj.

Arjun Tendulkar struggles in IPL, with guidance from Yograj Singh highlighting his batting potential. Despite a slow IPL start, Yograj's belief in Arjun remains strong.

Arjun Tendulkar's induction into the Indian Premier League (IPL) hasn't yet turned heads. The young left-arm pace allrounder, carrying the heavy legacy of his father, cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar, managed to claim three wickets over four games in the 2023 season for the Mumbai Indians.
However, his performance dipped in the IPL 2024, as he couldn't secure any wickets in the lone match he played.&nbsp;
A key figure in Arjun's training journey has been Yograj Singh, a former Indian cricketer and father of celebrated cricketer Yuvraj Singh.
Having coached Arjun briefly, Yograj is convinced of the potential that Arjun holds with the bat&mdash;a conviction that was reaffirmed when Arjun hit a century in his Ranji Trophy debut after training under Yograj's guidance.
In a revealing conversation with former IPL player Taruwar Kohli, Yograj Singh expressed his belief in Arjun's batting prowess. "If Arjun Tendulkar comes to me now, I will make him the world's greatest batter in six months.
Nobody truly knows the potential he has as a batsman. He trained with me for just 12 days and went on to score a century in his Ranji Trophy debut. Was that noticed?" Yograj said on Kohli's YouTube channel.
Yograj reflected on the time when Goa's team visited, and both Sachin and Yuvraj prompted Arjun to train with him.
"I saw immense potential: 'He's such a great batter, why is he being focused only on bowling?' As a batting all-rounder, he'd thrive," Yograj remarked.
Yograj Singh also revealed in another interview his thoughts on why Arjun ceased training with him, citing potential reputational concerns.
"When Arjun scored that hundred and returned to the IPL, there was apprehension about him being linked to me. People are wary of having certain tags," he said on 'Unfiltered by Samdish'.
Yograj urged Sachin, through Yuvraj, to trust him with Arjun's development for a year, promising significant improvement. "I told Yuvi&mdash;convey to Sachin&mdash;leave him with me for a year, and see the transformation," Yograj added.
Since debuting in the IPL in 2023, Arjun has played five matches for the Mumbai Indians, securing a base price of Rs 30 lakhs in the IPL 2025 mega auctions, despite a challenging initial phase.
Reflecting on Yograj Singh's cricketing background, one finds a brief international career&mdash;comprising one Test and six ODIs for India, with his last appearance dating back to 1981.
Arjun Tendulkar's journey continues, and with guidance, he might yet carve out a legacy of his own in the cricketing world.
