Jasprit Bumrah bowled one over: Harry Brook on England's moment of payback at Lord's

Harry Brook shed light on what triggered England's fired-up performance in the third Test at Lord's, where the hosts turned the series on its head with a spirited win over India. As the two sides gear up for the fourth Test in Manchester, Brook reflected on the moment that sparked England's aggressive intent—an over from Jasprit Bumrah late on Day said the over, during which the Indian fielders were seen chirping at England openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett, brought the England team together. What followed was a visible shift in energy, with the home side rallying around their openers and turning the pressure back on India.'We saw them guys going at Crawley and Duckett, so we had a little chat and thought that we're a team and we ought to combine with each other, get together and get back at them,' Brook said. The response from England was not only tactical but emotional. They fed off the confrontation and used it as fuel to mount a comeback, eventually bowling India out and sealing a crucial win to take a 2-1 lead in the five-match admitted that he was surprised by the positive reaction their fiery response received from fans and pundits alike. 'I've had a lot of compliments, since everybody was telling that it was awesome to watch. It looked like it was 11 vs 2 out there when we were fielding. It was good fun, it was tiring, but it made fielding a lot more enjoyable,' he reiterated that the turning point was Bumrah's over and how it influenced the team's mindset. 'We try and play in the spirit of the game as much as possible. Them lads went hard at Crawley and Duckett on that night when Bumrah bowled the single over, we watched that, reassessed, and thought it was the right time to go at them.'With a chance to seal the series in Manchester, England will be hoping to carry forward that same intensity. However, Brook was quick to acknowledge that India are a team known to fight back when under pressure. The stakes are high, not just for the series, but also for both teams starting their new World Test Championship cycle.- EndsMust Watch

Air India issued 9 show cause notices in 6 months over safety lapses: Govt

The government issued nine show-cause notices to Air India for safety violations in the last six months, with enforcement action taken in one case, the civil aviation minister informed Rajya Sabha Deepak Patel New Delhi The central government has issued nine show-cause notices to Air India in the past six months for five safety violations, with enforcement action completed in one case, Minister of State for Civil Aviation Muralidhar Mohol told Rajya Sabha on Monday. In a written reply, Mohol also said that 71 aircraft belonging to various carriers were damaged at Indian airports in the first six months of 2025 due to 511 bird strikes and 16 animal strikes. No injuries or fatalities were reported from such incidents in the past five years. The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has conducted three safety audits of Air India— in September 2020, March 2023, and March 2025—and found no major lapses. However, the regulator did follow up with the airline to ensure corrective actions were taken, he added. Between 2020 and 2025, DGCA took enforcement action in three complaints against Air India. These included a ₹30 lakh penalty, suspension of three licences, withdrawal of one post holder's approval, and five warnings. Mohol also said Air India was fully compliant with DGCA regulations at the time of its disinvestment. "During the last six months, a total of nine show-cause notices have been issued to Air India in connection with five identified safety violations. Enforcement action has been completed in respect of one violation," he stated.

Shubman Gill "Somewhere In Between" Virat Kohli And MS Dhoni: Sanjay Manjrekar's 'Best' Version Prediction Ahead Of 4th Test

Former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar has rallied behind skipper Shubman Gill 's leadership skills to bounce back from 1-2 down in the upcoming fourth Test at Old Trafford in Manchester. Gill's captaincy debut has been quite balanced for him in the tour so far. The scoreline might reflect the dominance of England, but the Indian side has been at its attacking best to give a tough fight. The narrow 22-run loss at Lord's was the best example of India's attacking approach on the tour. With the fourth Test giving the final chance for the visiting side to bounce back, Manjrekar feels the break will allow Gill to reflect on his captaincy style and come out all guns blazing in Manchester. 'Gill is a young captain, and he has already surpassed expectations, both with the bat and as a leader. The scoreline might be close, but India has won a Test match, and that's credit to how he has gone about it. This eight-day break comes at a perfect time for him. "He has good people around him, and his father, more than anyone, would know what kind of personality Shubman really is, whether he's a potential Virat Kohli or Dhoni, or somewhere in between," Manjrekar said on JioHotstar. "I'm guessing somewhere in between. He has to find his own path now, a path that enhances both, his leadership and his batting. And, if there is anything coming in the way of either, he's got to quickly let go of it. "In the first Test, he was leaning heavily on Rishabh Pant and others. In the second, he started asserting himself, and the results followed. Now, after this little setback in the third Test, we might see the best of Shubman Gill, the captain, in Manchester. Hopefully, we'll also see the best of Shubman Gill, the batter,' he added. India's camp is marred by injuries to Arshdeep Singh, Akash Deep and Nitish Kumar Reddy, other than Rishabh Pant, who is recovering from a finger injury sustained during the Lord's Test. This comes on top of workload management concerns that have restricted Jasprit Bumrah to just three of the five Tests in the series. He featured in the first and third Tests and with an eight-day gap between for the fourth Test, India have suggested they are "leaning towards" playing him at Old Trafford.
