Mohammed Shami Set For Bigger Blow? Hasin Jahan's Lawyer Says Maintenance Expense May Rise From Rs 4 Lakh To...
Jahan, a former model, married Mohammed Shami in 2014. The couple had a daughter in 2015. Shami and Hasin Jahan separated in 2018 after she accused him of domestic violence and adultery. They have been in the midst of a divorce case since then, with ongoing legal battles regarding alimony and other matters.
#WATCH | Kolkata, West Bengal | Cricketer Md Shami's estranged wife, Hasin Jahan, says, "I used to model and act before I got married. Shami forced me to quit my profession. He wanted me to live only a housewife's life. I loved Shami so much that I happily accepted it... But now… https://t.co/NFcLkkcUSP pic.twitter.com/zHJcJ5QNbh

While speaking to ANI, Imtiaz Ahmed said, "It was the best moment for Hasin Jahan. From 2018 to 2024, she had been running from pillar to post. Ultimately, it was pronounced in open court yesterday that Rs 1.5 lakh would be provided for Hasin Jahan, Rs 2.5 lakh for the daughter (both to be paid monthly), and that any time the daughter requires assistance, it would be provided by Md Shami. The High Court has directed the trial court to dispose of the main application of the interim order within six months. There is a high chance that when they return to the trial court to conclude the hearing on maintenance, it might be upgraded to Rs 6 lakh because the claim of Hasin Jahan in her maintenance application was for Rs 7 lakh and Rs 3 lakh."

Earlier, in 2018, Hasin Jahan had accused the cricketer of domestic violence. She had filed a petition in the Alipore court, accusing Shami and his family of harassing her. Jahan had demanded Rs 7 lakh per month from the pacer to maintain the family. The court accepted her plea and allocated Rs 80,000 for her daughter.

Chris Martin Indian swimming big road to hope
In a little more than a year, National Programme Director Chris Martin, a seasoned swim coach who has worked in leading nations such as the USA, Great Britain and China, has identified what prevents Indian swimmers from reaching the elite level. He has also started working on a long-term vision. In order to assess the situation, Martin first conducted three-day workshops in different States, including Tamil Nadu, Bengal, Kerala and Karnataka. 'The honest opinion is that he believes our Indian coaching system [to be] caught [up] in the 80s,' said Swimming Federation of India (SFI) secretary Monal Chokshi. Consequently, Martin has conducted some courses 'which are finding acceptance among younger coaches'. The SFI is also carrying out a National Talent Pool (NTP) programme, looking to make a mark by 2030. Recently, it sent 30 swimmers in their late teens for a high altitude camp in Armenia and expects positive results in the coming months. During the National aquatics championships in Bhubaneswar in the last week of June, Martin spoke to The Hindu about the overall health of Indian swimming. Excerpts: What have you seen in one year? I was brought here to do a two-tier project — to do coach education and open a development pathway and try to get the kids on long-term athlete development. In a year, I've seen us get started in both, but I've also seen the tremendous amount that has to be done for that to succeed. Can you highlight the areas of improvement? We have to take a long-term athlete development approach. That involves a certain amount of training in a certain amount of years and to not be completely obsessed with medals along the way. If I open your newspaper, they'll say so-and-so won five never tell me the age…[and] the time. To get to the world standard, those are the two most important things. I feel we've made some efforts in both, really educating the kids on how they grow up and how training is presented to them about what they can do down the line rather than what they can just get right now. You're working with different coaches and systems all over the country. I also work for World Aquatics in coach education. I kind of brought one of the systems that we've done there to here. We've got an online introduction and then we have Level 1 and 2 courses. We've already put 100 coaches through Level 1 and another 80 in the wait-list from the online version. We've had 40 go through Level 2. The coaches' education, the expansion of knowledge is ongoing. Looking at the advanced countries, what is the best model for India to follow? The people that get to the top of the Olympic Games take an LTAV [Long Term Asset Value] approach — they're building people like you grow a tree. No one's measuring a tree by how many inches it grows in each year because it's organic. And, human beings are of the problems here is that there's a whole lot of swimming for money. Learn to swim, it's all cash business. People want to rush to have a five-year-old swim too long, or a six-year-old do this gets you set off on the wrong way. It has to match the growth rates of the kids. Is it like what they say in athletics, 'Don't specialise so early'? True, you don't want to do that. We've made some trying to take the 50-metre events out of the kids too young so that they can at least get some aerobic development. We've tried to separate the sub-juniors from the juniors because we have 11-year-olds saying, 'I'm the champion of India'. If you do that, what's the incentive for them to be the real champion of India, or even the champion of the world? Does the system, or the swimmers or the coaches, need to unlearn something? That's a tough all of them need to do is to stop focusing on age group success. Most of the people that are in the Olympic finals, they are people that made the final push in their late teens, early twenties, and no one told them they were great when they were 10, 11, 12, 13, 14. That needs to be unlearned. Should there not be any expectations from the age group ?Yeah, where I come from [USA], people put their kids in swimming to have fun, to have an activity, to learn and grow, and to get the lessons from swimming that go into regular life. I do run into parents who put their kids in swimming and say, 'Okay, if I don't get a medal by this year or two years, I'm getting you out, and there's a better use of time and money.' Which is obviously right, but we're not going to climb the world scale with that attitude. What kind of natural talent have you seen here? I'll give you this example, and it combines your question about natural talent and what needs to be unlearned. This Odisha project with JSW, which is a fantastic thing, they've reams and reams of little kids that they're starting to teach and engage...I looked at the smallest kids [who] were swimming backstroke in a very, very good position. I went to the juniors, only 50% of them were doing that. I went to the seniors, only less than a handful. The reason? I feel when those seniors were small kids, their parents paid for them to be able to learn 'backstroke' at a ridiculously early age and the proprioceptive model of how children move was not consulted. What's the most heartening thing you've seen? The response to the NTP has been very heartening. I make the kids write a logbook in the couple of weeks they spend with me, and what they write is absolutely fascinating. What's the craziest thing? The same thing. When I had 30 kids write a logbook, and they were ready to go home, I said, 'Here's your logbooks'. They said, 'No you give them to us, our parents and coaches, mainly our parents, will want to read what's inside.' I thought that was crazy. Is it important to integrate all sorts of swimming clinics, coaching clubs? It's pretty much impossible, and what we can do is try to get a base level of what I've done with that. In terms of integration, sports seems to be a business here. People are selling certificates, credentials, programmes, support networks and all this, selling supplements, selling everything. It's impossible to integrate that when so many people are trying to make economic short-term gains. I find the people running the SFI are that has been told to me has been very reasonable. I do find there's a big road to hope. It's a large mountain.

India's task cut out in ‘knockout' tie vs Thailand
"Tomorrow's game is not only about us qualifying for the AFC," Crispin Chettri said on the eve of their crucial winner-takes-all game against twice World Cup-finalists Thailand on Saturday. "It will be massive not only for women's football but for everyone related to football in India. It will be like a ray of hope," the Indian women's head coach told TOI from Chiang Mai, Thailand, on Friday. With the Indian men's team languishing on last spot in their respective group of the AFC qualifiers, the ongoing uncertainty surrounding Manolo Marquez's successor at the senior national team's helm, and the general dismay regarding the future of Indian football among its followers, qualifying for the AFC Women's Asian Cup Qualifiers 2026 could be a small ray of hope for the country. While the last meeting between the sides ended in a 0-1 defeat for the Indian women at 2023 Asian Games, the Group B clash is billed to be one between equals, given the recent form of the both sides who have amassed the same number of wins, goals, points and an identical goal difference of +22 after three games at the qualifying leg at 700th Anniversary of Chiang Mai Stadium. India have romped to the top of the group with an 11-0 demolition of Mongolia, a 4-0 cruise against Timor Leste and a dominant 5-0 win over Iraq. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 3.5, 4.5 BHK Homes starting at ₹4.89 Cr.* Hero Homes Learn More Undo On the other hand, the world No. 46 Thailand, needing 12 goals over Mongolia to beat Chettri's team to the coveted ticket to Australia, scored identical 11 goals to make Saturday's fixture a knockout match. With penalties to play decider if the winner isn't decided in the 90 minutes, India would like their firepower of Manisha Kalyan, Sangita Basfore, India's topscorer Pyari Xaxa and tournament revelation Priyadarshini Selladurai to wrap things up in regulation time. Basfore and Anju Tamang are the two players who were part of India's 2023 Asian Games squad that tasted defeat against Thailand and will be eager to turn things around, especially for teammate Soumya Guguloth, whose injury in the Iraq game will keep her out of the decider. Chettri, however, is impressed with the women's show so far, especially in the background of limited resources available in their journey, vis-a-vis the men's team. "As a coach, I am already proud of these players irrespective of the result (on Saturday). The amount of hard work and challenges they have faced to reach here is incredible. For me, in sports, there are no failures. We just keep learning and growing as a team," he signed off.

Why it's Testing times for coach Gautam Gambhir and Team India
It seemed like the arc of a big-budget Bollywood drama: the arrival of a fiery new lead, an early rush of optimism, some swaggering victories, and then—just as the music swells—an abrupt turn into trouble. Gautam Gambhir's tenure as India's head coach has so far been part thriller, part family saga and part box-office the former opener took over from Rahul Dravid in July 2024, ahead of a white-ball tour of Sri Lanka, it was billed as a new era: intense, fearless and unflinchingly direct. Few, however, anticipated how quickly the romance of appointment would give way to the grind of responsibility. India won the T-20 series 3-0 in Sri Lanka but lost the ODIs there has been silverware—the Champions Trophy crown in February 2025 and an almost unblemished T20 record that includes clean sweeps against Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, besides beating South Africa 3-1 in November 2024 and England 4-1 in January-February this year. But Test cricket—that old, unsparing critic—has been far less Gambhir took charge, India have played 11 Tests: won three, lost seven and drawn one. The win percentage—just 27.3 per cent—is unsettling by Indian standards. The contrast between formats couldn't be starker: in white-ball cricket, India have thrived. In the longest form, they've stumbled, often spectacularly. But as in any great script, the coach is not the only character in this unfolding drama. The supporting cast has fumbled its lines too—dropped catches, misfiring bowlers, fragile middle orders. Gambhir's role is under scrutiny, yes. But so is the very fabric of India's Test would be safe to surmise that Gambhir's apprenticeship as India's head coach is now firmly behind him. When the former opener succeeded Rahul Dravid in July 2024, ahead of a white-ball tour of Sri Lanka, few could have anticipated how quickly the romance of appointment would give way to the reality of pressure. But in cricket, as in life, the longer format remains the true crucible. And there, the figures are far less LITMUS TESTIndia's Test troubles began last year at home—ironically, their fortress. In a rain-curtailed match in Bengaluru against New Zealand, Rohit Sharma opted to bat first on a damp surface. India were skittled for 46, their lowest-ever home total. What could have been dismissed as a freak collapse turned into a pattern as India went on to lose 0-3 to the visiting Kiwis, the spinners feasting on frail techniques and poor whitewash inflicted by New Zealand stripped much of the sheen from India's 2-0 Test series victory over Bangladesh in September 2024—a series where the opposition offered little resistance. Then came the marquee tour of Australia, stretching from November to January. A famous 295-run triumph in Perth briefly rekindled hope, but it was swiftly extinguished by three sobering vulnerabilities were laid bare by their second-innings batting collapses: 175 in Adelaide (a 10-wicket loss), 8 without loss in Brisbane (match drawn), 155 in Melbourne (a 184-run defeat), and 157 in Sydney (defeated by six wickets). Such performances with the bat simply do not win you Test in the very Perth Test they won, India had been bowled out for just 150 in the first innings. Yet they rallied spectacularly in the second, declaring at 487 for 6—a commanding total that piled pressure on Australia and paved the way for a memorable came June 2025—and with it, England. In Leeds, India walked into Headingley in the throes of transition: no Rohit Sharma, no Virat Kohli, no R. Ashwin. This, for all intents and purposes, was Gambhir's India—a fledgling side led by Shubman Gill, flanked by the youthful promise of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sai Sudharsan and Rishabh Pant. The result? Another defeat. But this one was as humbling as it was a seaming Headingley pitch, India's batting order once again unravelled—not so much from lack of ability as from an alarming absence of application. Despite producing five centuries across the match, the side's brittle underbelly was ruthlessly exposed. In the first innings, only five batters reached double figures; of the remaining six, three were dismissed for second innings echoed the same dysfunction: three ducks, three others scoring 4, 4 and 8, with just five again crossing into double digits. The five centuries—so valuable in isolation—were effectively nullified by the anaemia of the rest. And yet, the blame cannot rest solely with the coach Gambhir, for all his vaunted cricketing intelligence and warrior's mindset, must shoulder a measure of responsibility. His combative persona may have set the press gallery alight, but his strategic imprint on this Test side remains elusive. The batting group, in particular, has displayed no coherent plan against lateral movement—a curious blind spot in a country where the ball is known to speak from the first session to the makes it more confounding is that Gambhir's own playing career was built on grit and adaptability, especially in challenging overseas conditions. His teams, thus far, have shown worryingly little of GAME, BIG PICTUREBut here's the inconvenient truth: a coach is only as good as his players. And cricket, most cruelly in Tests, offers no hiding place for errors that unfold over five that first Test against England, one top-order batter played across the line, gifting his wicket cheaply. A slip fielder shelled a regulation catch. A star bowler—expected to lead the attack—failed to take a single second-innings wicket. Gambhir could do little. In such a scenario, India were always destined to lose. It was not strategy that failed, but said, the coach is not blameless. Selection calls, rotation management, field settings and the overall tactical narrative remain squarely his remit. Why persist with some bowlers in conditions unsuited to them? Why the hesitation to groom a left-arm spinner when most of India's defeats have come without them? And why this inconsistency in trusting youth, one match too soon or one series too late?Gambhir's supporters argue he is still early into the job. His critics wonder aloud whether the learning curve, given the stakes, can afford to be so Gambhir was never expected to be Dravid. His appointment wasn't about calm stewardship—it was about changing gears. If Dravid was 'The Wall', Gambhir was brought in to rattle it, to infuse aggression, self-belief and a harder edge. That philosophy has, to some extent, delivered dividends in white-ball cricket. But Test cricket, with its long shadows and slower reckonings, demands more than passion. It demands patience, systems and the quiet, meticulous art of Gambhir must now decide is whether he is content to be a man of mood and momentum—or if he can become a craftsman of the format that still defines cricket's highest to India Today Magazine- EndsMust Watch
