Chandigarh Cong says no to India-Pakistan cricket matches
Times News Network Chandigarh: Chandigarh Congress on Sunday demanded that the central government not allow India-Pakistan cricket matches during the Asia Cup tournament at a neutral venue. The Congress said that people were upset with the agreement to resume cricket ties with Pakistan. "On the one hand, Operation Sindoor , initiated to teach Pakistan a lesson for its acts of terror, was not called off. On the other hand, the cricket boards of both countries decided to foster friendly sporting relations with each other. In such circumstances, India cannot play cricket matches with Pakistan. A huge amount of money invested by Indian sponsors will go to the coffers of the bankrupt Pakistani Cricket Board, which could be used to perpetrate further terror attacks in India," Congress said.

Tejaswin Shankar tops decathlon standings after Day 1 of Wieslaw Czapiewski Memorial
India's Tejaswin Shankar topped the standings in decathlon with 4292 points on Saturday at the end of Day 1 of the 4th Wieslaw Czapiewski Memorial, a World Athletics Combined Events Tour Gold meeting in Poland. He has a 155-point lead over Czechia's Vilem Strasky. Switzerland's Finley Gaio sits third with 4102 points. The first event of the decathlon was the 100m where Tejaswin clocked a Personal Best of 11.02 seconds, which helped him top his heat. The 26-year-old Indian then jumped 7.57m in long jump, a Season Best, to jump to second place in the overall standings. However, a poor showing in shot put — a best throw of 12.62m — saw him drop down to sixth. Tejaswin recovered well to take the overall lead after recording a best attempt of 2.18m in high jump. In the final event of the day, 400m, he clocked a Season Best timing of 48.87s. Tejaswin currently holds the decathlon National Record of 7666 points, which he achieved during the 2023 Asian Games. The qualification standard for the event at the upcoming 2025 World Athletics Championships in Tokyo is 8550 points. Related Topics Tejaswin Shankar
