Gambhir Holds One-On-One Chat With Abhishek, Team Management Breaks Silence

Abhishek is yet to open his account in the current edition of the tournament and during Friday's training, he was seen spending considerable time with head coach Gautam Gambhir. Gambhir was seen trying to explain to him certain finer points and like a diligent student, the flamboyant southpaw nodded in agreement. After that he went for a high catch session.

Foreign Secretary Meets Bangladesh's Opposition As India Steps Up Outreach

Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla and Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri attended Bangladesh Prime Minister Tarique Rahman's swearing-in ceremony on behalf of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, but a noticeable outreach effort can also be seen in the foreign secretary's meeting with Bangladesh Jamaat-E-Islami chief Dr. Shafiqur Rahman on the sidelines of the event.  The Bangladesh Jamaat-E-Islami has emerged as the largest opposition party in Bangladesh and notably won big in areas along the border with India.  One of the complaints that Bangladesh has had earlier with Indian foreign policy regarding Bangladesh, especially during the tenure of Sheikh Hasina and the Awami League, was that India did not engage with any other political group, and that was articulated by the Bangladesh Nationalist Party as well after it won the election. ভারতের বিদেশসচিব শ্রী বিক্রম মিস্রি বাংলাদেশের নতুন সরকারের শপথ গ্রহণ অনুষ্ঠানের অবকাশে বাংলাদেশের বিরোধীদলীয় নেতা ও বাংলাদেশ জামায়াতে ইসলামী-র আমির ডা. শফ...
