Watch: Unreal moment in cricket! Batter on 98 bowled, but bails don't fall
In a jaw-dropping moment during a Big Cricket League match, batter Chirag Gandhi—just two runs shy of a century—managed to hit his own stumps without dislodging the bails. It’s one of those freakish cricket moments that defies logic, like the universe hitting pause just to mess with everyone. Gandhi went on to finish unbeaten at 101, but his team, UP Brij Stars, still lost to MP Tigers by failing to chase down 239 runs. Cricket, you unpredictable beast.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just a quirky highlight—it’s a reminder of how tiny, random moments can tilt a game (or leave fans scratching their heads). For cricket lovers, it’s pure drama; for everyone else, it’s proof that sports can be gloriously weird. Also, RIP to Gandhi’s teammates who probably aged five years watching those bails almost fall.

A major sexual assault trial involving five players from Canada's 2018 world junior hockey team is wrapping up, but the fallout is far from over. Advocates say the case will spark tough, necessary discussions about accountability, sports culture, and justice for years to come.

negativeTop Stories
The NHS is sounding the alarm again—they need 200,000 new blood donors to step up because supplies have been running dangerously low since last year’s "amber alert." Basically, they’re still struggling to keep enough blood on the shelves for hospitals.
Editor’s Note: Blood donations save lives, from surgeries to emergency care, and shortages put patients at risk. If you’ve ever thought about donating, now’s the time—it’s a small act that has a huge ripple effect. The NHS isn’t just asking; they’re practically waving a red flag.

White British children are minority at one in four schools in England
neutralTop Stories
A recent report highlights that white British children now make up less than half the student population in about a quarter of England's schools, with 72 schools having no white pupils at all. The findings, sourced from The Telegraph, reflect shifting demographics and raise questions about integration and cultural representation in education.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about numbers—it’s a snapshot of how Britain’s classrooms are changing as the country becomes more diverse. While some might see this as a sign of progress in multiculturalism, others could worry about social cohesion or the challenges schools face in adapting. Either way, it’s a conversation starter about what modern communities really look like.

RT, the Russian state-backed news network, is launching a new show hosted by Rick Sanchez, a well-known American journalist with decades of experience. The program, titled The Sanchez Effect, marks another high-profile Western hire for RT as it continues to expand its English-language content.
Editor’s Note: RT’s recruitment of a veteran U.S. journalist is a strategic move to boost credibility and reach with Western audiences. While some may see it as a legit career move for Sanchez, others will question the implications of a prominent American voice working for a Kremlin-funded outlet—especially amid ongoing tensions between Russia and the West. Either way, it’s a notable shift in the media landscape.
