Jonny Bairstow, Gleeson to debut for MI in IPL 2025 Eliminator vs GT
Mumbai Indians (MI) have made bold moves ahead of their crucial IPL 2025 Eliminator clash against Gujarat Titans (GT), handing debuts to two English players. Bairstow and Gleeson handed MI debuts Wicketkeeper-batter Jonny Bairstow and pacer Richard Gleeson will feature in MI's playing 11 for the first time this season. Bairstow comes in as a replacement for Ryan Rickelton, while Gleeson fills the spot left by Corbin Bosch. Both South African players had to exit the tournament early to join their national squad for the upcoming World Test Championship (WTC) Final 2025. Bairstow is expected to slot in as a direct replacement for Rickelton at the top of the order, providing firepower in the powerplay. Gleeson, who represented Chennai Super Kings (CSK) last season, replaces the injured Deepak Chahar in the bowling attack. The changes reflect MI's attempt to strengthen their side ahead of the high-stakes knockout match. Bairstow gives MI fiery start Bairstow missed out on his fifty as his 22-ball 47 runs gave his side a fiery start as the English batter justified his pace in the eleven very well.

Stark warning: Dublin faces citywide water shortages within five years
Uisce Éireann has warned water shortages will hit 'all customers' in Dublin in 'the next five years' due to 'critical' infrastructure issues. The chief executive of the utility, Niall Gleeson, has written to Housing Minister James Browne seeking 'an urgent meeting' over the matter. Mr Gleeson fears a multibillion-euro proposal to pump water from the River Shannon into the Greater Dublin Area to meet growing demand could be delayed for several years by planning objections from environmentalists. Housing Minister James Browne. Pic: Sam Boal/Collins He pointed to plans for a new wastewater plant that was expected to be operational this year, but now won't be delivered until 2032. In correspondence released to under Freedom of Information legislation, the Uisce Éireann boss said that issues with the supply of water in Dublin have become so dire that a drought in the Liffey today would result in immediate water restrictions. has previously revealed that thousands of new homes in Dublin are at risk because Uisce Éireann (Irish Water) needs tens of billions in investment. Niall Gleeson. Pic: Sasko Lazarov / © But the delivery of new homes is not the only serious problem emerging from Ireland's creaking water infrastructure. Mr Gleeson said the issues will affect 'not just the new housing targets but current and future foreign direct investment' in Dublin and across the country. He wrote: 'Significant population and economic growth over and above forecasts in the GDA (Greater Dublin Area) in the last three years means that there will be a shortage of water for all customers within the next five years. Greater Dublin. Pic: Getty Images 'This shortage can only be adequately addressed by prioritising the delivery of the Water Supply Project Eastern and Midlands Region (WSP).' The WSP will see water from the Shannon piped 170 km through counties Tipperary, Offaly, and Kildare to a reservoir at Peamount in Dublin, connecting into the GDA water supply network. The Department of Housing estimates that the project could cost over €10 billion. But Mr Gleeson has raised fears the WSP will run into significant planning delays. He referenced the Greater Dublin Drainage Project (GDD), which provides for a new wastewater treatment plant in Clonshaugh. The office of An Bord Pleanála in Dublin. Pic: Gareth Chaney/Collins Photos It has been in planning for six years, with the original consent quashed 'on one ground only, over which Uisce Éireann had no control', and which related to a consultation between An Bord Pleanála and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This, he said, was 'a direct consequence of the overly complex multiple consenting regime in Ireland' The planning application was lodged in 2018, and the project was expected to be 'complete and operational by 2025'. However, he added: 'As a result of the ongoing planning delays, we now believe that, at best, the project may be delivered and operational by 2032.' Mr Gleeson then warned that he fears the same problems will befall the WSP. He said: 'Given the issues experienced on the GDD project, we are concerned that the WSP will suffer similar delays and will be tied up for years in the consenting processes.' However, a spokeswoman for the EPA said that An Bord Pleanála had not fulfilled its obligations to seek the agency's views on the DDP. She told 'The judgment in this case did not identify any shortcomings or omissions by the EPA. Uisce Éireann has submitted an application to the EPA, which is currently under review. 'A final decision will be made by the EPA on this licence once the necessary planning decision has been made.' A spokesman for Irish Water said the supply in the GDA is on a 'knife edge'. He said this may result in 'water conservation orders (hosepipe bans) or supply restrictions', particularly during periods of drought/high demand. He added: 'This is an unsustainable situation and is a symptom of the critical need to develop a new source of supply.' On housing, Mr Gleeson said it is estimated that to meet housing targets of 50,000 units per year, Irish Water would need an additional € 1.7 billion in a 'nationally multi-annual ring-fenced fund for housing and growth'. He added: 'Our projects are of national importance and without them there will be significant curtailment of the State's housing programme despite our best efforts'. A spokesman for the Department of Housing said that 'while there are risks to water supply until the Eastern and Midlands Water Supply Project is completed in the early 2030s, Uisce Éireann will take all possible action to maintain supply and support new connections'.

Getting your colours done is the latest 1980s fashion trend resurrected by TikTok — but does it actually work?
Stylist, personal shopper and colour analysis expert Isabel Gleeson explains the magic of a colour consultation. 'A lot of people say they have a 'typical' Irish skin tone, but really there's always a bit of a difference,' she says. 'Maybe you're a bit more rosy, or have cooler undertones. It's case by case, so a colour consultation is a good investment of time and money. It helps you understand what colour palette best suits your skin tone.' You may have already seen social media posts of women having different colour fabrics draped over them, colour wheels held up to their faces or even the TikTok filter that claims to find your perfect palette. 'I don't find the TikTok filters very accurate,' says Gleeson. 'Neither do my clients. I would say you're better off looking for a celebrity who has a similar tone to you and look at what colours they wear.' If pushed to generalise about what suits the white Irish skin tone, Gleeson says: 'I think teal is generally quite a complimentary colour, as well as a medium purple which people tend to shy away from! I do recommend that people with typical Irish skin tones veer away from wearing black and wear navy for a softer effect. Deeper teal tones will suit darker complexions, it looks really striking. They will be able to pull off a stark white and deep black within the winter palette. Warm tones will suit anyone with golden features. Brown eyes suit gold as they will bring out golden flecks in the eyes.' Colour analysis: Nicola Coughlan The Galway actress and fashion darling is consistently praised for her outfit choices, but what does Isabel Gleeson make of her palette? 'Nicola Coughlan is a light summer which is cool-neutral, light and a delicate seasonal palette,' Gleeson says. 'It sits between summer and spring, meaning it has the cool soft qualities of summer with a touch of the brightness and freshness of spring. Coughlan would do well with low-to-medium contrast, which means softer colours rather than harsh darker ones. Some colours I would suggest for her are: primrose yellow, soft teal, rose pink, periwinkle and clear blue.' See What your Sinead Keary 'The Chloe' dress says about you...

‘He was wonderful' – Domhnall Gleeson advised by Steve Carrell to take role in new The Office spinoff
The Paper was also created by Greg Daniels, who is the brains behind The Office. Gleeson said that John Krasinski, who also starred in the show, encouraged him to take on the job. "He was wonderful. I mean, his big advice that he gave me was to do it,' he told People. "And the same with Steve Carell, another just wonderful actor who I'd worked with before. 'Their advice was, if it's Greg Daniels, you should do it because getting to work with him is a treat that not many people get to have. "I'm so happy I did it because I think we have something really lovely. So I'm thrilled with it. "I mean, I like to think I would've got there on my own anyway, but certainly if [John] and Steve had been like, 'Don't do it, it's a nightmare,' I would've hightailed it, but they could not have been more positive about it, and I'm delighted I listened to them.' The Paper, a mockumentary-style show, will follow staff at a tanking Ohio newspaper, The Truth Teller. Gleeson, who plays Ned, will star alongside Sabrina Impacciatore as Esmerelda, while The Office star Oscar Nunez will reprise his role as Oscar Martinez. 'I don't know that there's much I can tease because they're being super in-house about letting the information out when the show comes out, which I think is a good way to do it,' he told Collider. "People are going to have to take the show on its own merits because it's become something different. It's a whole new city. It's not like a remake. "It's like the documentary crew went to a different city, and they're following different people. "It's not a paper company, it's a newspaper. It's a very, very different setup.' The Paper is set to premiere in September.
