Greet police with respect when they visit your home: Srinath tells Mysureans
Mysuru: Former cricketer Javagal Srinath on Wednesday appealed to people to greet the police with respect if they visit their doorstep on duty. He was speaking after launching Mysuru police's Mane Mane Police initiative by distributing posters to a police constable at a function organised by the Mysuru City police at KSOU convocation hall in Muktagangotri in the city. He said that the initiative launched by the police aims at establishing people-friendly initiatives. The outreach also aims to involve citizens in community policing to enhance city safety. It bridges the gap between citizens and police, helps strengthen their relationships, and boosts confidence and trust with the police force, he noted. He said that he too had different opinions about the police before coming into contact with the cops. But his notion about the police completely changed after he started to work along with them in various initiatives and activities. Policing is a tough job. They meet all kinds of people, work round-the-clock for public safety, and focus on maintaining law and order and traffic management, he stated. City police commissioner Seema Latkar said that this initiative was launched following the direction of home minister G Parameshwara. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Dubai villas | search ads Get Deals Undo "Till recent years, people were visiting the police to file complaints, to address their grievances, but now the police will visit their doorsteps to resolve their grievances under the initiative. Police officers will visit every household to listen to their grievances and provide solutions as per the law. The intention behind this scheme is resolving the issues of citizens quickly," she said. She also said that the department has given the directions to each police to cover 50 housing clusters in their police jurisdiction under the beat system. PSI, ASI level officers will supervise this police-citizen friendly initiative in all police stations. Police will also spread awareness among people about the prevention of crimes and thefts, besides lodging complaints, and providing information about crimes witnessed in their locality, in and around their homes. Information providers will be kept confidential during their visits. A citizen head will also be formed for a cluster of 250 houses. She also appealed to the public to extend all cooperation with the police in maintaining law and order, and prevention of crimes as their duty aims at protecting public interest and safety.

History repeats? Chennai's Deja Vu strikes at Lord's: Shoaib Bashir to Mohammed Siraj feels like Saqlain Mushtaq to Javagal Srinath
Mohammed Siraj at Lord's and Javagal Srinath in Chennai NEW DELHI: Despite India's narrow 22-run loss at Lord's, former India captain Anil Kumble praised the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy as a shining example of why Test cricket remains so compelling. With England now leading the five-match series 2-1, Kumble highlighted the quality of cricket seen so far. India had bounced back strongly in the second Test after a five-wicket defeat in the series opener at Leeds. A composed bowling effort and sharper fielding saw them bowl England out for 271 on the final day and seal a convincing win with over a session remaining. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! However, England edged ahead again by clinching a tense 22-run win on the final day of the third Test at Lord's to go 2-1 up in the series. Shubman Gill blames 'judgement error' as Rishabh Pant run-out haunts India in Lord's heartbreak "This is a great advertisement for Test cricket. All three Tests have gone down to the wire, and both teams have fought brilliantly. Yes, the scoreline says 2-1 to England, but if you look at session-wise performances, it's been even. India should feel confident heading into the next two Tests. They've already bounced back from a loss in the first Test. Poll Will India level the series in the next Test? Definitely Probably Unlikely No chance "This match came down to fine margins—like Pant's run-out before lunch, the extras, and perhaps letting Jamie Smith and Brydon Carse score freely. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: One simple trick to get internet without a subscription Techno Mag Learn More Undo Those key moments—India will need to grab them in the next game if they want to level the series," Kumble said on JioHostar. India vs England: India fall short at Lord's, England lead series 2-1 India's defeat at Lord's now ranks as their fourth narrowest loss in Test cricket in terms of runs. Recalling a similar heartbreak, Kumble reflected on India's 12-run loss to Pakistan in Chennai in 1999, a match in which he played. Siraj's dismissal to Shoaib Bashir on the final day at Lord's bore similarities to Javagal Srinath's dismissal in that 1999 Test, when he was bowled by Pakistan off-spinner Saqlain Mushtaq . "I was just reminded of one Test match where India lost by 12 runs against Pakistan in Chennai. It was a similar kind of dismissal. Just 22 runs. Jadeja left stranded. I mean, he planned to get India this close to winning. But England just stuck to their task. I guess the previous over from Jofra Archer certainly rattled Siraj. "It's not like he was looking to take the bowler on, but the silly point coming in added pressure. Thought that was a great chance to pull off a historic win. But that's what it should be for India—despite losing by 22 runs, there are a lot of positives," he added. Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4. Watch Here!

Cricket chiefs bring in new rule after England were left raging when India exploited loophole to claim series win
International cricket chiefs have moved to ensure there will be no repeat of the controversy that marred India 's Twenty20 series win over England last winter, by amending concussion protocols. England were left fuming in Pune five months ago when, with the series on the line, India were permitted to introduce Harshit Rana — a 90-mile-per-hour fast bowler — in place of batting all-rounder Shivam Dube. Harshit went on to claim three key wickets in a 15-run victory that surged the home team into an unassailable 3-1 lead. Match referee Javagal Srinath, a former India international, permitted the 'like-for-like' replacement during England's chase despite Harshit batting in only three of his previous 25 T20 career appearances, scoring two runs, and Dube bowling just nine overs in his previous dozen T20 internationals. However, from now on concussion replacements must be settled upon in advance of the toss, removing the advantage previously held by the home team of selecting from a greater pool of players. The other significant change made by the International Cricket Council in relation to concussions is the introduction of a mandatory seven-day sit-out period for any player deemed to have been concussed. Remarkably, Dube returned to action for the fifth and final match of the series in Mumbai just 48 hours after the Pune row. Previously, ICC guidelines stopped short of enforcing a sit-out, simply advising that a 'player should usually take at least seven days out.' In a huge break with tradition, the ICC is also preparing to introduce injury substitutes for the first time at international level — after announcing a six-month trial in domestic first-class matches around the world from October. Players who suffer serious injury on the field of play at any time after the match has started (including any pre-match warm-up period) can be replaced for the remainder of the match by a like-for-like player. It is designed to stop teams becoming disadvantaged when a player is ruled out of participating further in normal capacity due to a significant impairment such as a fractured bone or torn muscle. Among the changes to the playing conditions coming in with immediate effect is a requirement for a fielder who makes airborne contact with the ball beyond the boundary to then land and remain inside the boundary. An individual that has left the field of play can make subsequent contact with the ball while still airborne but landing outside the perimeter will result in four or six being signalled and catches not being upheld, even if another player completes the fielding. This change will be implemented in international cricket before it is included in the laws of the game by the MCC next year. A stop clock in Test cricket has also been introduced, replicating its use in limited-overs internationals. The fielding team will be given a warning if not ready to begin an over within 60 seconds of the previous one being completed. Failure to do so after two warnings will result in a five-run penalty being imposed against the fielding team for every subsequent breach up to 80 overs when the tally reverts back to zero. Only one ball will be used in the last 16 overs of one-day international innings. Two new balls will be used until the end of the 34th over, at which point the fielding team will choose the ball to continue with. The wicket zone for DRS judgments will now be the actual outline of the stumps and bails, while any deliberate short runs will not only lead to a five-run penalty, but the chance for the fielding team to choose which of the two batters takes strike next delivery. On a trial basis in white-ball matches, the position of the batter's legs at the point of delivery will now be used as the reference point for a wide, even if the batter subsequently moves across to the off side, providing bowlers with greater leeway.

'Frustrated' Sammy approaches match referee Srinath after contentious umpiring rocks WI vs AUS Test: 'Want consistency'
West Indies coach Daren Sammy approached match referee Javagal Srinath after contentious umpiring rocked the ongoing Barbados Test against Australia. The third umpire, Adrian Holdstock, has come under the scanner after several decisions went against the hosts on the second day of the first Test of the three-match series. West Indies vs Australia, 1st Test: Windies coach Daren Sammy met match referee Javagal Srinath following contentious umpiring. (AFP) According to ESPNcricinfo, the West Indies coach met the match referee after the close of play on Day 2 to seek clarity over the decision-making. He also stated that his concerns with Holdstock started from the recent ODI series against England, where he was the TV umpire for two games and on-field for another. On Day 2 of the first Test, two key decisions went against the West Indies. First, Roston Chase was adjudged LBW off the bowling of Pat Cummins even when the replays indicated that the West Indies captain got an inside edge. On the other hand, Shai Hope was asked to walk back after Alex Carey took an outstanding catch. However, replays indicated that the Australian wicketkeeper possibly grassed the ball on the turf. "We are just trying to find some sort of understanding as to what the process is. We only hope for consistency. That's all we could ask for. When there is doubt in something, just be consistent across the board," ESPNCricinfo quoted Sammy as saying. "I have noticed, especially with this particular umpire, it's something that for me started in England. It's frustrating. I just ask for consistency in the decision-making," he added. Will West Indies lodge an official complaint? Daren Sammy also left the door open when asked whether the hosts are considering lodging an official complaint against Adrian Holdstock. "You'll have to wait and see," he stated. However, the Windies coach stated that he doesn't want to single out anyone as his main focus remains on seeking clarity. "Look, you don't want to get yourself in a situation where you're wondering about certain umpires. Is there something against this team? But when you see decision after decision, then it raises the question. I know he's here for the series. You don't want to go in a Test match having that doubt," said Sammy. "So I want to have that conversation as to the process… so we could be all clear. Because, at the end of the day, you don't want to be going into a Test match not trusting the umpires. And that's not what our team is about. So we're just looking for some clarity as to the decisions," he added. Daren Sammy also stated that he was aware of the risk of publicly discussing match officials and that he didn't want his players to speak on the decisions after the close of play on Day 2. "We know the rules. We know fines going all across the board," he said. "I don't want them to focus on that. Yes, we're kind of shooting ourselves in the foot by dropping so many catches, but look at the Test match, [us] against our own selves, some of these decisions, and we're still in a position to win," Sammy added. Speaking of the first Test, Australia's score read 92/4 at Stumps on Day 2, with the visitors leading by 82. Beau Webster and Travis Head are currently unbeaten on 19 and 13 respectively.

Lord's hums to 'Ole, Ole, Ole' as World Test Championship Final kicks off in grand style
Lord's was overflowing with Proteas fans on Day 1 of the World Test Championship Final in London. Picture: Zaahier Adams/Independent Media Image: Picture: Zaahier Adams/Independent Media There is a hush around the famous old ground. Everyone is waiting in eager anticipation. The coin goes up in the air. Heads is the call. It feels like an eternity before it hits the Lord's turf. Match referee Javagal Srinath picks it up and walks over to Temba Bavuma. The Proteas captain has called correctly. A big cheer goes out from particularly the Mount Stand, which has been transformed into Castle Corner here at St John's Wood. Bavuma alludes to it when the skipper says "we can hear the South African accents in the stands" after opting to unleash his quicks Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen first. Video Player is loading.

Next Stay Close ✕ The ICC have hauled out the greats from both teams' legendary eras of the past. Hashim Amla and Matthew Hayden, sporting a cowboy hat of such magnitude it would put Chuck 'Walker Texas Ranger' Norris' to shame, were called upon to walk out the ICC golden mace. Even Boeta Dippenaar was spotted, dressed in his full 2005 '438' ODI kit, while Brett Schultz is still a cult hero after all these years. It's a real pity Steve Waugh was not in attendance though. Waugh has traditionally riled up South Africans with his sharp tongue, particularly when he sledged Herschelle Gibbs with the infamous line 'You have just dropped the World Cup' up the M1 here back in 1999. But his most recent barb that South Africans 'don't care about Test cricket' really hit a nerve for everyone from Cape Town to Camden that has any links to Mzansi has found their way down the Jubilee Line to witness 'The Ultimate Test' in the flesh. The table was now set for an absorbing day's cricket. 'Big-time players make big-time plays in big-time spots. That's who I want to be.' That was an oft saying from former NFL superstar Aaron Donald. Kagiso Rabada (L) celebrates taking the wicket of Australia's Cameron Green during Day 1 of the ICC World Test Championship at Lord's Picture: Glyn Kirk/AFP Image: Glyn Kirk/AFP He may as well have been referring to Kagiso Rabada. The Proteas' spearhead has had to get a new set of headphones so loud has the noise been around him heading into this WTC Final. But from the moment 'KG' charged in from the Nursery End with the new ball, the only noise now being heard was the chants from the 'Saffas' every time he took a wicket. They had five glorious opportunities to stretch their vocal cords with Rabada carving his name onto the Lord's honours board for a second time with a five-star performance. The 'gees' in the stands was now at an all-time high with the London mid-afternoon sun peaking its head out over the old Father Time weathercrane. For a few moments Lord's may even have been The Wanderers with 'Ole, Ole, Ole' reverberating around the hallowed old ground.
