Harshika Jain first Indian to sign for Romanian club
Harshika Jain (Image credit: X) At first glance, 22-year-old Harshika Jain's football ing roots don't scream 'history maker'. A girl from a business family in Mumbai's plush Altamount Road, she was just another sports-loving kid who dabbled in everything from basketball to handball to hockey. But by the time she turned 11, football had kicked everything else aside. Two days ago, Harshika became the first Indian footballer to sign with a Romanian firstdivision club, joining Atletic Olimpia Gherla. No Indian has ever featured in Romania's top two leagues before. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Moving from India to play professional football at the European stage, Harshika is following in the footsteps of Bala Devi, Manisha Kalyan and Aditi Chauhan. Her signing isn't just about international firsts; it's also one of persistence, late-night training sessions, lockdown drills, and a young girl breaking into all-boys' teams. Harshika's football journey began at school, where she could always be found on the football ground. And she could be spotted quite easily, too, as she would be the only girl training with boys. It was the same in her locality, where she would always have to play with the other boys as no girls joined it. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Libas Purple Days Sale Libas Undo The move to Romania came through trial at Olimpia Gherla, where she impressed legendary coach Mirel Albon, the man behind Romania's rise in women's football. After 20 days of trial, the club offered her a contract. 'It feels like family here,' Harshika told TOI. 'And that's important to me. I'm close to my family, and the club environment reflects that. They've welcomed me with open arms.' Despite going global, her dream remains rooted in national colours. 'Wearing India's jersey, that's the dream. Always has been.'

Fact check: Did Ben Stokes refuse to shake hands with Ravindra Jadeja? Watch video
England captain Ben Stokes speaks with Ravindra Jadeja after the match ends in a draw after day five of the 4th Test (Photo by) The dramatic final day of the fourth Test at Old Trafford delivered not just a hard-fought draw but also a series of fiery moments — from England's appeal for a mutual draw, to India's batters batting on and declining early handshakes, to visible tension in the final exchanges. After India's spirited fightback which saw them recovering from 0/2 with centuries from Shubman Gill, Ravindra Jadeja and an unbeaten 101* from Washington Sundar, emotions ran high on both sides. While the cricketing effort drew praise, it was a post-match moment involving Ben Stokes that lit up social media. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Multiple clips circulated online claimed the England captain refused to shake hands with Jadeja and Sundar, supposedly in response to the pair declining an early draw and continuing to bat through the final session. England captain Ben Stokes shakes hands with Ravindra Jadeja as the match ends in a draw after day five of the 4th Test (Photo by) However, a closer look puts the speculation to rest. Video evidence posted on X clearly shows Stokes offering a handshake to Jadeja after the day's play. The interaction was brief, almost fleeting, as Stokes quickly moved past the Indian batters, but it did happen. So, did Ben Stokes snub a handshake? The answer is no. The 2-1 series scoreline in England's favour remains unchanged after the draw, but the emotional moments from the Old Trafford finish are likely to spill into the final Test at The Oval. With all to play for and tempers simmering, the decider promises more high-stakes drama. The final Test of the five-match series will commence on July 31.

IND vs ENG: Big Ben and the art of the impossible
Ben Stokes (Getty Images) MANCHESTER: Purely in terms of numbers, Ben Stokes had endured an average series before arriving in Manchester. Figures of 5/72 with the ball and 141 runs with the bat in the first innings of the fourth Test here are more the kind of numbers that match his lofty reputation as an allrounder. But if one has closely followed the games, Stokes transcends stats. More than just being the premier fast-bowling allrounder in world cricket, Stokes has a job to do as captain of a bowling unit that is going through the throes of transition. This is when there have been doubts over his body being able to endure a heavy workload. Well, Stokes took the load and did all the heavy lifting to create magical spells of cricket right through the series. He has stood out as a leader. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Physically, mentally, and tactically, he has been a cut above the rest this summer. He has laid out plans and has been at the centre of the battlefield to execute them. His presence has elevated the standard of the series. In the build-up to the AndersonTendulkar Trophy, England men's team's managing director Rob Key had told TOI that the management doesn't see Stokes bowling the long and big spells that defined him as a fast bowler. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo It doesn't seem Stokes himself believed that line of thought. The dodgy knee at the age of 34 was always going to be a hurdle. But Stokes has run across every barrier that has come in his way. His ageing body, battered for over a decade now, is the last thing that could hold him back. The caretakers of English cricket were in awe of his herculean effort with the ball on the final day of the last Test at Lord's. But they were equally concerned about burning out their prime asset. Stokes himself conceded that coach Brendon McCullum asked him to stop after a point on the fourth evening at Lord's. He acknowledged it then but was having none of that on the fifth day. When he didn't bowl on the fourth evening here at Old Trafford, one may have started guessing if his body finally gave up. The same concerns started to resurface. India stay alive, England frustrated after draw; handshake drama at Old Trafford and more 'He loves bowling, he loves batting, he loves diving around in the field, sprinting and doing everything he can do. Being captain of the team, you want him playing as many games as possible. We need to see if we can somehow find a way to limit the number of overs he bowls in particular. Throughout the series, he hasn't necessarily bowled those mammoth spells like he did in previous times,' England's assistant coach Marcus Trescothick said after the fourth day's play on Saturday. Trescothick didn't want to divulge much, but he did hint at the team management holding Stokes back on Saturday evening because of the cramps and niggles he suffered due to the workload. On Sunday morning, Stokes had the ball first up in his hands and fired in eight overs on the trot. His batting form in the first three Tests was questionable. Yet, he kept himself in the game with the ball. He was the only bowler from the England team who asked persistent questions to the Indian batters. On the eve of the second Test at Edgbaston, Stokes bowled full throttle non-stop at a single stump for an hour. Little did anyone know that it would become a norm in an actual match when the series reached its business end. Stokes is someone who likes to keep moving the game forward. He makes things happen. He sets unusual fields, bowls unusual lines. Even in the flattest of conditions, he has not let the Indian batters breathe easy. Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4.
