India have cemented their place in the super four of the Asia Cup 2025 with two comprehensive displays.

It also went against the existing state policy requiring assistance to closed mills.Savarkar has hailed the Cabinet’s approval, saying government assistance was crucial for the revival of cotton mills. “Cotton farmers who were forced to sell their produce to spinning mills in Tamil Nadu will now sell it within the state,” he said. What were…

Even though dew impeded Pakistan’s bowlers, resulting in the ball slipping out of their hands repeatedly, UAE’s batsmen did not possess the nerves or the muscle to mount a serious challenge. Shaheen Afridi’s pace, Haris Rauf’s hard lengths, and Abrar’s guiles were difficult for UAE’s batsmen to comprehend. Not…
