Aditya Kaushik New Delhi
The Gujarat Giants have left no stone unturned in their quest for a maiden PKL title. Their most sensational move is bringing in Iranian powerhouse Mohammadreza Shadloui for a record ₹2.23 crore after his stellar MVP season — which significantly upgrades their defence and adds raiding versatility. The Giants have retained explosive raiders like Rakesh Sungroya and Parteek Dahiya, and have further deepened their bench by recruiting experienced campaigner Ajith V Kumar.
The squad boasts promising young raiders and a new coaching set-up led by Jaivir Sharma, making them a dangerous dark horse this season. While the wholesale squad overhaul could pose early chemistry challenges, Gujarat's blend of star talent and hungry young guns makes them one of the most exciting prospects to watch in PKL 2025.

Bills' Josh Allen skips preseason opener against Giants to go on date with wife Hailee Steinfeld, pic emerges
Buffalo Bills' MVP quarterback Josh Allen used his August 9 night off from playing the game against the New York Giants to have dinner with his new wife, actress Hailee Steinfeld.

Bills' Josh Allen skips preseason opener against Giants to prioritize date night with wife Hailee Steinfeld (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert, File)(AP) On the night of August 10, the newly-married couple were spotted having dinner at a restaurant in Buffalo, a day after Allen missed his team's preseason opener. 'Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen were casually eating dinner downtown in Buffalo yesterday,' a user wrote on X, sharing a photo of the couple. The pair got married on May 31st in an intimate Santa Barbara ceremony. 'I don't know if people know that, but that was the best night of my life, honestly. And my wife's life, I think. That's what she says,' the quarterback said during an appearance on 'Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Buffalo Bills'. Allen has been managing his personal and professional commitments ever since. The pressure to get to the Super Bowl this year is currently heavy on Allen's shoulders as he seeks to break in at least once during his tenure with the team. Fans react Fans took to the comment section of the post to share their opinions. 'Don't repost these intrusive photos.

We need him in tip top shape this year. Much love,' another user wrote. 'Leave them alone . Seriously, he lives here , he should be able to have a meal in quiet with his new bride,' a fan chipped in. 'I would hate that when you're out trying to have a quiet night with your spouse ppl woke be snapping pictures. Hopefully try had a nice time together,' a user wrote. A user expressed concern by writing, 'This just gives me the ickies. They are having a personal moment. If they were out in a professional capacity, sure. But I don't know, just my opinion. I feel this way about all famous people.' The Bills' next game is scheduled against the Chicago Bears for August 17. – With inputs from Stuti Gupta

Anonymous scout spilled beans on Luka Doncic's revenge plan on Dallas Mavericks after shedding 30 pounds
Luka Doncic. Image via: Kyle Terada-Imagn Images Luka Doncic's transformation has become one of the most talked-about storylines of the NBA offseason, and now, an anonymous scout believes the Los Angeles Lakers superstar is plotting a season to remember. After shedding 30 pounds and refining his conditioning, Doncic is reportedly 'on a mission' to claim both the league MVP and scoring title, with a clear target in mind, proving the Dallas Mavericks wrong for ever letting him go. An anonymous scout revealed why Luka Doncic lost 30 pounds for next NBA season The buzz began during a EuroBasket friendly between Slovenia and Germany, where an NBA scout couldn't believe the change. 'Man, he looks incredible,' the scout told 'He's quicker and more explosive. He's getting by people more easily. I think he's on a mission, man. I think he's gonna win MVP and the scoring title next season. He wants to get revenge on Dallas for basically fat-shaming him. ' That comment refers to last season's shocking midyear trade that sent Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks to the Los Angeles Lakers. Mavericks management, including GM Nico Harrison, reportedly had lingering concerns over his weight, diet, and conditioning. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Most Beautiful Women In The World Undo Injuries, including a nagging calf issue. But in Los Angeles, Doncic averaged 28.2 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 7.5 assists across 28 games, then boosted his playoff output to over 30 points per game. This summer, his approach changed completely. Doncic embraced a strict gluten-free, low-sugar diet, intermittent fasting for 16 hours daily except Sundays, and consuming 'at least 250 grams of protein' along with a daily almond milk shake. Photos from his Men's Health cover and TV appearances confirmed what fans could see — the 26-year-old looks leaner, stronger, and more explosive than at any point in his career. Luka Doncic is ready for the next NBA season with the Los Angeles Lakers Doncic signed a three-year, $165 million extension with the Lakers on August 2, making his his status as the centerpiece of JJ Redick's starting lineup alongside LeBron James, Austin Reaves, Rui Hachimura, and new addition Deandre Ayton. He's also played an active role in team-building, recruiting Ayton and Marcus Smart to the purple and gold. 'I'm going to keep working as hard as I can to bring another championship to Los Angeles and to make Laker Nation proud,' Doncic said. 'This is just the beginning. I'm excited for what's ahead.' The Lakers doubled down on his physical transformation by hiring Jeremy Holsopple, the former Mavericks strength and conditioning coach who once helped Doncic maintain his elite quickness and vertical explosion. The reunion could ensure his fitness gains stick deep into the season.

But this season is about rewriting the narrative Dallas wrote for him. If the scout's prediction holds, Luka Doncic's revenge tour may be one of the NBA's defining stories in 2025-26.

Key is to let to team shine first, says Hockey team vice captain Hardik Singh
I think we are back to how we were ahead of the Paris Olympics last year,' says star midfielder Hardik Singh during a quick chat after what has been an unusual day for the Indian hockey team – they've just finished playing a casual game of Kabaddi with the Gujarat Giants at the Sports Authority of India grounds – a day before they board flights to Australia to compete in a four-match series. He adds, 'Everyone has been focusing on their diet and physical form. We've had to keep in mind that Australia plays very physical matches and their mindset is really strong – we need to match that.' Having won the 2022 Asian Games and scored a bronze at the last two Olympics, the last few years have been big for the Indian men's field hockey team, which Singh has been vice-captaining since 2023. Reflecting on his personal growth as a leader, the Arjuna awardee says, 'I've seen many captains in my junior and senior term years like PR Sreejesh, Manpreet Singh and Harmanpreet Singh, so I've learnt what happens in captaincy and how to treat juniors – appreciating them can really raise confidence and boost the game. But in this team, we don't need a single leader, but five to six in every match who can show the team how things are to be done.' On leading alongside captain Harmanpreet Singh, he notes that it's all about balance. 'I know him from a very long time on and off the field. We have that kind of friendship where, inside the field, I know sometimes I can be aggressive and he can be a little cool, or the other way round. You always need that combination for the team,' he says. While the nation celebrated the team's bronze win at last year's Paris Olympics, Singh considers it a loss, saying, 'In my view, we may have won a medal, but we didn't win the semi-final. The feeling of winning gold is something else. I'm not saying I'm sad but this is how you get competitiveness in an athlete, how you learn and improve – by asking more from yourself.' How does he overcome losses like this? The key is to stay grounded. 'I'm still learning how to overcome disappointment but I've been getting better. The key is to keep going. You should never take a loss to your heart and a win to your head,' shares Singh. With the 2026 World Cup right around the corner, and the team set to play in the Hero Asia Cup, which is a world cup qualifier within a week of the Australia tour, Singh eyes the top prize. He sees it as a personal comeback as well as one for the team. 'In my first World Cup, I was an amateur and in the second, I got injured and didn't get a chance to play. However, the most important thing is to let the team shine first, and win this World Cup,' Singh adds.
