India top pacer Shami asked to pay Rs400,000 in monthly alimony
The order directs him to pay Rs 150,000 per month for his estranged wife, Hasin Jahan's personal maintenance and Rs 250,000 towards the care and expenses of their daughter.
Earlier, the cricketer had been directed to pay her Rs 50,000 per month and an additional Rs 80,000 for their daughter's expenses. Which Jahan then appealed, in which her legal counsel argued that Shami's financial circumstances could support a higher alimony amount.
According to his income tax return for the financial year 2021, Shami's annual income was approximately Rs 6 million per month. Jahan claimed her combined monthly expenses, including those for her daughter, exceeded Rs 600,000.
The High Court ruled in her favour after taking these details into account.
In 2014, former model and Kolkata Knight Riders cheerleader Hasin Jahan tied the knot with Indian cricketer Mohammed Shami. The following year, they welcomed a daughter.
However, by 2018, their marriage had taken a turbulent turn. Jahan publicly leveled serious accusations against Shami, including domestic abuse, dowry-related harassment, and even involvement in match-fixing. She further claimed that Shami had ceased to support her financially, deepening the rift between them.

Asia Cup in UAE: Samson's place is in bit of danger, says Ashwin
Former India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin believes Sanju Samson's chances in the playing XI are in "a bit of danger" after the inclusion of Shubman Gill in the team for the upcoming Asia Cup (September 9-28) in the UAE. The Indian team for the Asia Cup was announced on Tuesday, with Suryakumar Yadav leading the squad and Gill as his deputy. Speaking on his YouTube channel, 'Ash ki Baat', Ashwin said: "What will make me even more sad is that there are high chances that you have announced him as the vice-captain, so Sanju Samson's place is in a bit of danger. The matter is sealed. Sanju is not going to play because Shubman Gill will play. If you want to play Gill, you have to play him at three, and Sanju will open the batting, but that too is not going to happen." Samson has performed brilliantly as an opener for India alongside Abhishek Sharma. Since the last T20 World Cup, he has scored 487 runs in 17 T20Is with three hundreds (average of 34.78). Meanwhile, Jitesh Sharma has been picked as a backup wicketkeeper-batter for Samson. Earlier this year, Sharma hit a blistering 85 not out off just 33 deliveries (8 fours, 6 sixes) to help Royal Challengers Bengaluru pull off the third-highest successful run chase in the Indian Premier League (IPL) history as the RCB chased down 228 against Lucknow Super Giants with eight balls to spare. Praising the wicketkeeper-batter, Ashwin said, "I am very happy for Jitesh Sharma, a well-earned position for him. He played a great knock for RCB against LSG." India will kick off their Asia Cup campaign against the UAE on September 10, while the high-voltage game against Pakistan is scheduled for September 14, with both fixtures set to be played in Dubai. India will play their final group stage fixture against Oman on September 19 in Abu Dhabi. After the group stage, the tournament will proceed to the Super 4, where the top two teams from each group will qualify. If India finish at the top of Group A, then all of their Super 4 matches will be held in Dubai. But if India finish second, then one of their Super 4 clashes will be held in Abu Dhabi and the remaining two in Dubai. The Super 4 stage will run from September 20 to 26. Dubai will host the final, which is scheduled for September 28.

Al Ahli to face Cristiano Ronaldo and Al Nassr after hammering Al Qadsiah in Saudi Super Cup
Asian champions Al Ahli set up a blockbuster Saudi Super Cup final against Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr when they thrashed Al Qadsiah 5-1 in Hong Kong on Wednesday. Al Ahli celebrated the club's first ever continental title when they beat Kawasaki Frontale on home turf in Jeddah earlier this year − and they were in similarly impressive form at the Hong Kong Stadium. Gaston Alvarez might have given Al Qadsiah an early lead with a close-range header, but Al Ahli had already looked dangerous in the opening stages and it only took them four minutes to draw level when Frank Kessie bagged the first goal of a brace. Ivan Toney made it 2-1 when he tucked away a trademark penalty on 28 minutes before Enzo Millot, a €30 million summer signing from Stuttgart, headed his first goal for the club to put Ahli firmly in the driving seat. Kessie put the game beyond reach with his second and Ahli's fourth in stoppage time at the end of the first half, with a Nacho own goal completing the rout and rubbing salt in Al Qadsiah's wounds just after the hour mark. Ambitious Qadsiah might have only travelled to Hong Kong by virtue of Al Hilal's withdrawal, but they were coming off a strong season in the Saudi Pro League. They also boasted new recruits, including last season's Serie A golden boot winner Mateo Retegui, who was signed in a deal worth around €70m. They were no match for Ahli though, who will provide a serious threat to Cristiano Ronaldo's hopes of landing a first piece of silverware in Saudi football with Al Nassr. Nassr qualified for the final with an impressive victory of their own – a 2-1 win over reigning Saudi champions Al Ittihad on Tuesday. Ex-Liverpool attacker Sadio Mane put Al Nassr ahead before Al Ittihad struck back through former PSV, Ajax and Tottenham player Steven Bergwijn. Mane was sent off after 25 minutes following a VAR review, but 10-man Nassr went on to win thanks to Portugal stars Ronaldo and Joao Felix. The former teed up the latter, a summer recruit from Chelsea, to score the decisive goal. The Saudi Super Cup final takes place on Saturday at the Hong Kong Stadium (4pm UAE time).
