Uncertainty looms over Chinnaswamy Stadium hosting Women's World Cup games; local authorities yet to give nod
The fate of M Chinnaswamy Stadium hosting the ICC Women's ODI World Cup matches in September-November hangs in the balance with Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) yet to get permission from local authorities to host the matches at the venue, where 11 people lost their lives in a stampede during Royal Challengers Bengaluru victory celebrations. The Chinnaswamy Stadium, which is scheduled to host the World Cup opener on September 30 and one of the semifinals, is also in line to host the final if Pakistan doesn't qualify for the title clash. Given the uncertainty, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has given the state association time till Saturday to get the necessary permission. If not, the BCCI is planning to look at alternate options as it is keen to avoid any eleventh hour changes. BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia said the board is aware of the situation and is in touch with the International Cricket Council. 'We have learnt about the issue and are in touch with KSCA. As things stand, they still need to get permission from the relevant authorities to host the World Cup matches. Since the tournament is beginning on September 30, we don't have enough time because ICC also needs clarity as early as possible. We have given them a couple of days. If they don't get the required permission by Saturday, then we will be looking at other venues to host these matches,' Saikia told The Indian Express. The probe commission set up by the Karnataka state government had raised several red-flags in its report regarding the safety measures in the stadium. The KSCA, which was planning to host the Maharaja Cup T20, initially behind closed doors, has now moved the entire tournament to Mysuru as they were denied permission to host the matches at the Chinnaswamy. It is understood that the KSCA has written to the government seeking clearance to host the World Cup matches, but so far there hasn't been any positive developments. The Chinnaswamy Stadium is one of the four venues in India that are scheduled to host the eight-team event. With Pakistan having its reservation to play in India, the ICC has allotted its fixtures to Colombo which is scheduled to host 11 matches. With teams set to criss-cross between India and Sri Lanka, the reason why the organisers picked Bengaluru as a venue was that it has an airport that includes an immigration centre and is closer to Colombo with an air time of 90 minutes. Apart from the opening fixture, Bengaluru is also scheduled to host England vs South Africa (October 3), India vs Bangladesh (October 26) and second semifinal (on October 30). It is also in line to host the final in case Pakistan doesn't qualify. The other venues in India which will host the World Cup fixtures are Vizag, Guwahati and Indore. Justice John Michael Cunha, who headed the probe commission set up by the state government to investigate the stampede that occurred on June 4, in his report has 'strongly' recommended that 'stadium authorities consider relocating events that are expected to attract large crowds to venues that are better suited for such large gatherings.' Apart from placing its recommendation, the probe panel has also mentioned that the Chinnaswamy stadium built in 1974 and sits in the heart of Bengaluru is unsafe for mass gatherings. 'The design and structure of the stadium was unsuitable and unsafe for mass gathering,' the report stated. Since the stampede, the venue's safety has come under sharp focus with the Bangalore Electricity Supply Company (BESCOM) cutting off the power supply to KSCA for failing to comply with the fire safety norms at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. With Chennai's MA Chidambaram Stadium, undergoing outfield renovation, the next option in the southern region for the BCCI, should it take the matches away from Bengaluru, is Hyderabad. But the Hyderabad Cricket Association has its own share of problems with its Apex Council suspending president A Jagan Mohan Rao, secretary R Devraj and treasurer CJ Srinivas Rao at an emergent meeting recently. All the three office-bearers were taken into police custody on charges of misappropriation of funds and forgery.

"Really Delighted For What He's Achieved": World Cup-Winning Coach On Gautam Gambhir
India's World Cup-winning former coach Gary Kirsten has expressed his admiration for the manner in which Gautam Gambhir shepherded the team to a creditable 2-2 draw on the tough Test tour of England recently. India and England settled for a stalemate after five intensely fought Tests played across nearly two months. "I'm really happy for the Indian cricket team for levelling the series and it's great for Indian cricket. I'm really pleased for Gautam Gambhir as well, I know him well. Really delighted and pleased for what he's achieved with the team," Kirsten told reporters on the sidelines of an event here. "They're (India) doing really well at the moment. We all get excited by the success of the Indian team, I certainly do. They've got a great bunch of young players coming through now and it's really exciting to be supporting them," added Kirsten. Having lost the series opener at Leeds, India staged a remarkable comeback to level the rubber, which concluded with the visitors' famous win at the Oval. India won the 2011 World Cup at home under Kirsten's guidance and also reached the number one position in the Test format during his time with the team. Gambhir was part of that World Cup-winning team as Virender Sehwag's opening partner and played a fine knock of 97 in the final against Sri Lanka. Recalling his tenure as coach in this part of the world, Kirsten said one of his highlights of his stint with India was getting Ishant Sharma to practice batting at nets and eventually help VVS Laxman to save a Test against Australia in Mohali in 2010. "One highlight in my three years with the Indian team was getting Ishant Sharma to come down to the nets with his batting pads and then to get him to face 48 balls in the Test match against Australia with VVS Laxman to win the game. That was a highlight for me to work on his batting. "I really enjoyed that from a leadership perspective because he didn't think he could bat. And he still can't bat that well, but we kind of helped him get through that Test match and do really well," Kirsten said. Set a target of 216, India were left staring down the barrel at 124 for eight but Laxman (73 not out), first with Ishant (31), and then alongside No.11 Pragyan Ojha, guided India to a memorable one-wicket win.

Divya Deshmukh challenges Magnus Carlsen, drops ice-cold verdict after defeating ‘senior' Koneru Humpy: ‘The final was…'
Divya Deshmukh's recent victory at the FIDE Women's Chess World Cup perfectly reflected India's rise in the sport. What made it more special was that it was an all-Indian final with Divya taking on veteran Grandmaster Koneru Humpy. Before the final, Divya didn't even a single GM norm, and then fast forward to her victory, she became India's 88th Grandmaster. Divya Deshmukh spoke about her wish to face Magnus Carlsen. Divya's victory comes after D Gukesh's win at the World C'ships in December last year, when he beat Ding Liren. After Magnus Carlsen won his first World Championship title in 2013, beating Viswanathan Anand, Indian chess faced a short tenure of monotony. But now the new generation of chess players in India has been challenging for top honours in international events, heralding the beginning of another glorious chapter. Divya Deshmukh challenges Magnus Carlsen Speaking to Dainik Jagran recently, Divya opened up on her desire to face Magnus Carlsen one day, which showcased her hunger and desire. 'If I get a chance to play, I have to play with world number one chess player Magnus Carlsen. He has been a world champion and will learn a lot from playing against him,' she said. Meanwhile, she also gave some insight into her World Cup victory. "Talking about the tournament, all the players who participated in it were senior to me. I had faced an experienced player in the first round. Experience in such tournaments is the work. The final was going on, everyone was in tension, but I was just trying to focus on myself,' she said. Only 19 years old, she added, 'I have been playing chess since I was five years old. As far as I remember, I played my first move against my father, but I had to face defeat in this match. After that, I grew up slowly and today I am at this point.' She has also qualified for the 2026 Candidates Tournament, courtesy of her berth in the World Cup final.
