Are the participants complaining?

I’d get Kotian in right away when we need a spinner. Certainly over Sundar. We wait too long and make no bold decisions.

She’s married now.

That is a good win. Good luck for the final.

Good stuff. These long three setters can drain the players. Indians are especially prone to such occurrences. Hope Aryan can buck the trend.

This joke is even better!

To be honest, I’m more concerned about Jaiswal as an opener more than anyone else. Opening stands are critical for wins. India can’t afford to start with a loss as they often do although it’s less frequent now.

You’re joking, right?

Wow! That’s awesome.

Tough? It’s a rank bad loss.

Nary a word on RCB win? I was hoping Kohli will retire from all forms of cricket after this win, but it seems he wants to continue to play at least in IPL.

Dayam!!

Ronit Karki is going to STANFORD! woohoo

Is he the next desi player from the Stanford factory after Nishesh?


What has the Stanford “factory” produced of late? Let alone an Indian origin one? While your unbridled enthusiasm is ...

^^ Many a prodigies have come and gone. Wouldn’t get my hopes high on this athlete either. Forget an Olympic medal, I’ll be happy if they medal at Asian level. But thanks for unearthing a potential gem.

First set to Rybakina 6-2. Knowing Ostapenko, she’ll fold meekly now.

Update: 6-2, 6-2 to Rybakina.

I don’t know much about these two, but I feel Rybakina will win.
