Over the next 10 years, teams have tried, but 500 has remained the unconquerable mountain. Similarly, in T20s, 300 has remained untouchable. Well, almost. Two teams have zoomed past 300 in the last year (Baroda against Sikkim and Zimbabwe versus Nepal). With the Indian Premier League (IPL) season in full swing, will there be a 300 on the cards?

Mamdani turned the race into a personal battleground of identities, where heritage became both shield and sword. However, this very emphasis on leftist ideals could exacerbate national divisions. Mamdani's policies threaten to weaken the fight against illegal immigration and balloon expenditures on social measures, potentially straining the city's and the country's resources at a time when prudence is paramount.

Her Story, Her Power
It happens from cricket fields to every field of life. Without struggle there can be no awakening. Faith, perseverance, and surrender to a higher force turn pain into power. I have lived this truth through the rise, the fall, and the rise again.
