Salman Agha praises 'team effort' in win over BD

Pak T20 skipper Salman Ali Agha has been getting better with every game since taking over team's reins last year. PHOTO: AFP Pakistan captain Salman Ali Agha credited team effort for their comprehensive 37-run victory over Bangladesh in the first T20I of the three-match series here at the Gaddafi Stadium on Wednesday. Reflecting on the victory, Agha lauded the batting unit's collective effort to breach the 200-run barrier despite the dismal start before emphasising that a complete all-round performance is what he craves from his team. "After being 5/2, it was great to see everyone contribute to reach 200-plus," said Agha. "That's exactly the team effort we want - performing well in all three departments. We encourage players to back themselves and take the initiative," he added. Agha specifically praised Ali for his five-wicket haul, revealing that people are saying that he was bowling like he used to in 2017, the year Pakistan won the ICC Men's Champions Trophy. "Hasan Ali has been phenomenal — people are saying he's bowling like it's 2017 again. His hard work is paying off, first in the PSL and now tonight," Agha stated. While responding to a question regarding plenty of all-rounders in the team, Agha, an all-rounder himself, termed it a real luxury, asserting that it provides him with a handful of quality options. "Our all-rounders are a real luxury. Even Saim Ayub can bowl his full four overs. With so many quality all-round options, we're in a great position. We'll rest tomorrow and regroup for the second game." Mohammad Amir roped in by Essex for T20 Blast Former Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir has been drafted to the Essex County Cricket Club for the Vitality Blast, scheduled to commence on Thursday. The announcement was made by the club on its social media handles as it shared the pacer's pictures donning its jersey. Amir, in a video statement, shared his excitement upon the signing and urged the fans for their support. "Great to be back here and I am really happy and looking forward to seeing you all. I need your support. Please come and support us. See you all soon," the pacer stated. The Essex will kick off their T20 Blast 2025 campaign against Hampshire in a night fixture, scheduled to be played at The Rose Bowl in Southampton on Friday. Mohammad Amir recently participated in this year's Pakistan Super League (PSL) 10 and finished as the joint-fifth leading wicket-taker with 13 scalps in nine matches.

Scuba divers confirm rumours of car swallowed up by Banff's Lake Minnewanka nearly a century ago

'The lake is slowly giving up its secrets and we're determined to get there' The remains of a 1920s vintage Essex sedan is seen on the bottom of Lake Minnewanka in Banff National Park after being found by a group of Alberta divers on May 22, 2025. Photo by Alan Keller It took only a few minutes of diving time for John Ryan and his team to confirm a decades-long rumour of a car resting on the bottom at the middle of Lake Minnewanka.

At a depth of nearly 60 metres about four kilometers from shore, the ghostly sight of an Essex sedan, possibly of 1928 vintage, emerged in the silty, grey-green murk. 'We found it in seven minutes, which is extremely rare,' said Ryan, adding the discovery was made in water with five metres of visibility. 'The lake is slowly giving up its secrets and we're determined to get there.' Ryan and fellow divers Alan Keller and Brian Nadwidny had been tantalized by stories of a Saskatchewan photographer who'd driven his car far out onto the lake's ice and had set up his camera tripod when his vehicle broke through the ice, fortunately without him.

The trio had recently received a tip from a man who had detected what could have been the lost car while searching for a body using side-scan sonar. 'We obviously needed to dive for it, there was no two ways about it,' said Ryan. Using their own sonar device on board their boat, the men pinpointed the most likely site for the car in one of the deepest parts of the frigid lake and swiftly found it resting on the lake's silty bottom, the first time humans have laid eyes on it since its disappearance, said Ryan. 'Being the first to see this dusty old car is the reason we do it (given) all the expense and time away from home,' he said. The old Detroit-built car has kept its park pass — metal in those days — and white Saskatchewan licence plates bearing the red numbers 48009.

A shovel partly buried in silt can be glimpsed inside the car that initially appears in sturdy condition, 'but you can see the years have not been good to it,' said Ryan. Rumours of more cars in Lake Minnewanka The cars aren't the only sunken human artifacts hidden by the 20 km-long lake northeast of the Banff townsite. The ruins of the summer village of Minnewanka Landing, which was fully inundated in 1941 with the construction of a dam. It's a subterranean locale known well by scuba diver Ryan, who has floated along its streets that lie 18 metres below the lake's waves. 'You can see the ruins of a hotel (dating to 1886), a stove, lanterns, a road, tree stumps and a sidewalk,' said Ryan. But those ruins are well-travelled by divers, he said. Other undiscovered prizes remain somewhere much further from shore than the remains of the village. The rumour is, there might be two other cars sitting in Lake Minnewanka glacier-fed depths waiting to be discovered, said the Airdrie man. 'We'll be back out there pretty soon seeing if we can find some more of them,' he said. BKaufmann@ X: @BillKaufmannjrn News News News Vancouver Canucks Vancouver Canucks
