Did Rajasthan Royals opener Vaibhav Suryavanshi fail Class 10 board exams? Here's the truth
As CBSE announced the Class 10 and 12 board results, social media was abuzz with a bizarre claim — that 14-year-old Rajasthan Royals sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi had failed his Class 10 exams. The post quickly went viral, leaving fans puzzled: is the IPL's young hero struggling in academics?
A widely shared satirical post suggested that Suryavanshi failed the exams and that the BCCI had hilariously requested a 'DRS-style' review of his answer sheets due to alleged evaluation errors. But here's the truth — the entire claim was a joke.
Vaibhav hasn't failed — or passed — Class 10
In reality, Vaibhav Suryavanshi is not even in Class 10 yet. According to reports, he is currently a student of Class 9. So the question of him failing or passing the 10th board exam simply doesn't arise.
Vaibhav's IPL rise continues to stun fans
Vaibhav became a sensation during IPL 2025 when he smashed a six off his very first ball and went on to score a 35-ball century — the second-fastest in IPL history and the fastest by an Indian, breaking Yusuf Pathan's previous record of 37 balls.
In five matches this season, the young prodigy has scored 155 runs at a blazing strike rate of 209.45, hitting 16 sixes and 10 fours. However, despite his individual brilliance, Rajasthan Royals have exited the IPL 2025 playoff race.
Conclusion: The viral claim of Vaibhav Suryavanshi failing Class 10 is false and meant as satire. The young cricketer is currently in Class 9 and continues to focus on both cricket and academics.

The 9 Best Sports Bars in Barcelona
Barcelona isn't just a paradise for architecture, beaches, and tapas, it's also a city where sports culture runs deep, from the roar of Camp Nou to the hum of neighborhood bars on match day. Whether you're a die-hard football fanatic, a casual NBA watcher, or someone who simply enjoys a cold beer with friends while the game's on in the background, the city offers a wide variety of venues to suit every taste. From bustling beer halls with craft brews and multiple screens to cozy local pubs steeped in tradition, here's a look at some of the best spots to watch sports in Barcelona. 1. CocoVail Beer Hall Nestled in the Eixample district, CocoVail stands out as a spacious, American-style craft beer haven. With 24 rotating craft beers on tap, including local Catalan and Spanish brews, it's a beer lover's paradise. They also serve up to 17 flavorful chicken wing variants, burgers, and sandwiches, perfect for sharing, especially when paired with board games while you wait. CocoVail features 6–7 large-screen TVs, ensuring you can catch multiple games, from NBA and NFL, to UCL, golf, rugby, Formula 1, and March Madness. Reviewers love the laid-back vibe and friendly service. 2. Belushi's Bar A familiar face among expats and students, Belushi's offers an international pub atmosphere with multiple screens and a global crowd vibe. Expect a solid mix of pub food, beers, and broadcasts of major sports from around the world. 3. The George Payne Located centrally near Plaça Catalunya, this lively Irish pub delivers a genuine match-day atmosphere. With ten 60' screens across two floors, you'll never miss a moment. Known for its long beer list, 'Messi World Class Burger,' fiery chicken wings, and even humorous food challenges like the 'Luis Suárez Big Bite,' this spot turns sports viewing into full-on entertainment. 4. Flaherty's Irish Bar & The Old Irish Pub Also recognized as strong choices in Barcelona's sports bar lineup. Both offer cozy, authentic pub interiors and frequent broadcasts of football, rugby, and more, great for tourists or locals seeking a classic Irish pub vibe. 5. Sonora Sports Tavern Listed among the top sports pubs in the city, Sonora rounds out a solid lineup with its welcoming setting and reliable sports coverage. It's also in an interesting area of the city that is more modern, Poble Nou. 6. Casa de Tapas La Cañota For those seeking a family-friendly, restaurant-style alternative, this Montjuïc gem delivers seafood tapas and burgers, alongside four TV screens to catch Barça matches in a relaxed, but vibrant setting. 7. L'Ovella Negra A rustic, convivial tavern with large spaces, table football, sangria-by-the-pitch-volume vibes, and big screens for match nights. It's a mix of local tradition and festive sports culture. 8. Bar Llopart & Bar Versalles For a more local experience, these neighborhood havens offer an authentic sporting atmosphere with Catalan flair. Bar Llopart in Sants, with its Barça scarves, chants, and budget-friendly beers, attracts true fans. Bar Versalles in Sant Andreu, with historic charm and modernist touches, screens matches amid a genuine community feel. 9. Additional Favorites & Local Tips Travelers and students frequently recommend Irish pubs like Michael Collins, James Joyce, and George Payne as go-to places for casual match watching, even if the concept of a 'sports bar' isn't ingrained in Catalan culture. Others point to a local ambiance, where regular bars simply tune into big games in the background. Final Word Whether you're hunting for craft beers, fiery wings, and big screens (CocoVail), or an adrenaline-charged, challenge-fuelled environment (George Payne), Barcelona offers diverse options. Belushi's and other Irish pubs keep things steady and social. Meanwhile, more traditional locales like Bar Llopart or La Cañota cater to local fans, families, and foodies alike. There's a perfect place in Barcelona for every kind of match-day mood, cheers to that! TIME BUSINESS NEWS

Match vs. Ronaldo's Al-Nassr 'Once-in-a-Lifetime Moment' for Indian Club FC Goa
Saudi Pro League Match vs. Ronaldo's Al-Nassr 'Once-in-a-Lifetime Moment' for Indian Club FC Goa Published Aug. 15, 2025 12:31 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link Cristiano Ronaldo will travel to India to face FC Goa in an Asian Champions League Two match being hailed as "historic" in the country. Al-Nassr of Saudi Arabia and its superstars were drawn Friday against the Indian Super League (ISL) club in Group D of Asia's second tier club competition, along with Istiklol of Tajikistan and Iraq's Al-Zawraa. The top two from each of the eight groups advance to the second round. "This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime moment for FC Goa," club CEO Ravi Puskur told The Associated Press. "To host Al-Nassr and Cristiano Ronaldo is arguably the biggest game in Indian club football history." Ronaldo, 40, has yet to win a major trophy since signing for the Riyadh club in 2022 and the team is expected to be at full strength when the action starts in September. Al-Nassr, which finished third in the Saudi Pro League last season, also boasts famous names such as former Liverpool star Sadio Mane and Joao Felix, the Portuguese forward who signed from Chelsea in July. "For Indian football, this is historic," Puskur added. "We are here on merit, and a match like this gives us the chance to show that we can compete on the continental stage, becoming part of the sport's biggest narratives." ADVERTISEMENT Puskur is confident that the excitement will be felt all over the country to give the local game a much-needed boost. "It's a unique opportunity to bring global attention to Indian football and, most importantly, a chance to spark a greater interest in Indian football among fans across the country, giving the game the spotlight it has long needed," he said. The draw comes with Indian domestic soccer in crisis. The 2025-26 ISL season was due to start in September, but has been suspended due to uncertainty over the renewal of an organising agreement between the Indian federation and its commercial partner, the Football Sports Development Ltd., pending a Supreme Court order. Bengaluru FC, Odisha FC and Chennaiyin FC have either suspended salaries or ceased soccer operations until a solution is found. "While the financial boost is important, the bigger picture is the opportunity this creates for long-term growth," said Puskur. "The global attention, sponsorship interest, and fan engagement from a moment like this help strengthen the club's foundations, allowing us to invest in the future."
