Abhishek scored one century and two fifties in IPL 2025, amassing 439 runs in 13 innings at a strike-rate of 193.39.
Last year's runner-up SRH came in with one of the most intimidating batting line-ups but the all-out attack approach fell flat on its face.
SRH began with the second highest total ever of 286/6 against RR and ended with the third highest, of 278/3 against KKR. In between, it looked like SRH never had a Plan B with the bat.
Meanwhile, the Shubman Gill -led Team India departed for England on Thursday night, ahead of a five-match Test series against the Three Lions.
Under the leadership of Gill, the Test series in England will be India's first assignment in the 2025-27 World Test Championship cycle.
India will line up without its batting bigwigs, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who announced their retirement from Test cricket last month.
India squad for five Tests in England: Shubman Gill (C), Rishabh Pant (VC & WK), Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudharsan, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Karun Nair, Nitish Reddy, Ravindra Jadeja, Dhruv Jurel (WK), Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd. Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Akash Deep, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav.

Who is Sydney Sweeney, the Emmy nominated actress whose bathwater soap sold out in seconds?
Hollywood star Sydney Sweeney stirred the internet by releasing a soap—infused with her actual bathwater—which sold out in seconds. The limited-edition "Sydney's Bathwater Bliss," launched with Dr. Squatch, became a viral sensation, blending celebrity appeal with quirky marketing. (Screenshots: Instagram/sydney_sweeney) In the ever-surreal world of celebrity branding, few stunts have managed to scrub the line between fame and frenzy quite like Sydney Sweeney's latest headline-grabber. The Emmy-nominated star of Euphoria and The White Lotus —known for her raw talent, shapeshifting roles, and unapologetic persona—has now become the talk of the internet for something completely unexpected: bathwater-infused soap. Yes, you read that right. On June 6, 2025, a limited-edition soap bar titled Sydney's Bathwater Bliss went on sale in collaboration with men's grooming brand Dr. Squatch—and it sold out in literal seconds. Only 5,000 bars were made, and the demand crashed the website, overwhelmed waitlists, and sparked a resale frenzy on eBay, where bars are now listed for prices north of $1,000. But behind the bubbles is a story of how Sweeney—once just another promising young actress—has reinvented herself into one of Hollywood's most bankable and bold stars. Born in Spokane, Washington, Sydney Bernice Sweeney began her career humbly, appearing in TV guest spots on shows like 90210 , Criminal Minds , and Grey's Anatomy . Her breakout came in 2018, with a dual splash—playing the quirky Emaline in Netflix's Everything Sucks! and the haunting Alice in HBO's Sharp Objects . Soon after, she appeared in The Handmaid's Tale , followed by a small but notable role in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood . But it was her portrayal of Cassie Howard in HBO's Euphoria that transformed Sweeney into a pop culture force. With a role that demanded vulnerability, complexity, and courage (not to mention intense media attention due to its nudity and raw emotional arcs), Sweeney emerged as a Gen Z icon. Her performance earned her an Emmy nomination, and her turn as a sardonic college student in The White Lotus only cemented her acting credentials. From that point on, Sydney Sweeney was no longer a rising star—she was a household name. Fast-forward to summer 2025, and Sweeney's name is once again on everyone's lips—but this time, it's her bathwater that's making waves. Following a cheeky 2024 ad for Dr. Squatch in which Sweeney was shown soaking in a tub, fans began flooding the internet with one strange request: they wanted her bathwater. Rather than dismiss the absurdity, Sweeney leaned into the joke. 'You kept asking about my bathwater,' she posted on Instagram. 'So we kept it.' Enter Sydney's Bathwater Bliss , a bar soap made with a 'touch of Sydney's actual bathwater,' blended with pine bark extract, exfoliating sand, and aromatic notes of Douglas fir and moss. Described as 'medium-grit' and 'infused with the essence of the outdoors and Sydney's tub,' the product sold for $8 before becoming internet folklore. The soap launch wasn't just a gimmick—it was a masterclass in viral marketing. Sweeney herself pitched the concept and oversaw the creative process. 'It's weird in the best way,' she said in a press release. 'We created something unforgettable that actually smells incredible. Hopefully, this helps guys wake up to the realities of conventional personal care products and pushes them towards natural.' Critics may have scoffed, but Sweeney doubled down. Speaking to People on the red carpet of her upcoming film Echo Valley , she brushed off the backlash with characteristic cool: 'Honestly, though,' she quipped, responding to the idea that the soap might at least get more men to shower. Beyond the viral soap stunt, Sydney Sweeney has been quietly building an empire. She founded her own production company, Fifty-Fifty Films, in 2020. She's starred in indie thrillers like Reality , mainstream flicks like Madame Web , and romantic hits such as Anyone But You —which she also executive produced and helped cast. She's also dipping her toes (and, clearly, her bathwater) into brand partnerships, serving as a face for Armani Beauty and Laneige. She's hosted Saturday Night Live , starred in a Rolling Stones music video, and is set to appear alongside Julianne Moore in the psychological drama Echo Valley , releasing later this month. Sweeney's approach to fame has always blurred the line between performer and producer. Whether it's reviving a horror script she first auditioned for as a teen ( Immaculate ), or championing natural grooming products through tongue-in-cheek campaigns, she's proving that modern stardom is as much about audacity as artistry. Is Sydney's Bathwater Bliss a bizarre moment in internet culture, or a clever commentary on celebrity obsession and consumerism? Perhaps both. But what's undeniable is Sydney Sweeney's ability to control her narrative—one lather, line, and lead role at a time. She's not just bathing in fame. She's bottling it, branding it, and turning it into soap. And apparently, people can't get enough.

Bengaluru stampede: How further disaster was thwarted on top tiers of Chinnaswamy Stadium
1 2 Bengaluru: While pain, anguish and trauma unfolded outside M Chinnaswamy Stadium Wednesday, a potential disaster was averted by the skin of the teeth inside the stadium — thanks to the swift response of alert private security personnel and police officers. By 5pm on that fateful day, as it became clear certain stands, particularly Stand 13, were overcrowded, D Bhaskar, the managing director of Supreme Care Services, a private security agency deployed by event partner DNA, could sense trouble. "Stand 13 looked dangerous. People were jumping from the upper tier to the lower level to get a better view," Bhaskar recalled. "Some even used pillars and fences to climb down. It was a crowd unlike what we usually see during IPL matches — much more aggressive and unruly." Bhaskar, drawing on his army training and two years' experience of handling RCB match security, read the situation fast enough to realise it was spiralling out of control. "Several stands were operating at over 120% capacity. Those spectators who stood up were blocking the views of those behind, which led to pushing and jostling," he said. "I feared people could fall off the upper stands straight to the ground." Bhaskar immediately approached a senior police officer at the venue. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Obtén audífonos premium sin pagar absolutamente nada Top Audifonos Undo "I must thank him — he acted without any delay. Five police officers from the VIP area were immediately told to control the situation on the upper stands. They moved to the upper tiers and cleared out those threatening to act dangerously," Bhaskar said. Warnings on loudspeaker Meanwhile, Bhaskar's team comprising former army personnel, used walkie-talkies and loudspeakers to warn the spectators. "We told the crowd that they were under surveillance and strict action would be taken against any unruly conduct, which instilled some fear and helped calm the situation."
