    India and England are facing off in the fourth T20I of their five-match series, with England captain Jos Buttler winning the toss and opting to bowl in Pune. Both teams have made key changes to their playing XIs from the previous match.

    For India, Arshdeep Singh replaces Mohammed Shami, who has been left out after just one game. Rinku Singh returns in place of Dhruv Jurel, while Shivam Dube has been brought in for Washington Sundar to add more firepower to the lineup.

    “It’s all about coming here and playing a good brand of cricket. The pitch looks a bit dry. Three changes. Arshdeep in for Shami and Rinku is back for Jurel. We need a little bit of firepower, so Dube in for Washington,” said Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav at the toss.

    Meanwhile, England have made two changes, Saqib Mahmood replaces Mark Wood, and Jacob Bethell comes in for Jamie Smith.

    “Yeah, feels like a great atmosphere and obviously a must-win for us. Really pleased with the performance [in Rajkot] and happy with the way we are moving. I’m unsure to be honest and have to be on it from the first ball,” Buttler said.

    While India registered contrasting victories in the first two matches of the series in Kolkata and Chennai, England fought back with a 26-run victory in the third T20I in Rajkot.

    India vs England, 4th T20I: Playing XIs

    India’s Playing XI: Sanju Samson (wk), Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav (capt), Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dube, Rinku Singh, Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Ravi Bishnoi, Varun Chakravarthy

    England’s Playing XI: Phil Salt (wk), Ben Duckett, Jos Buttler (capt), Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, Jacob Bethell, Jamie Overton, Brydon Carse, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Saqib Mahmood





    In a surprising turn of events, Mohammed Shami has been benched after just one game as Rinku Singh returns from injury. The decision has raised eyebrows among fans and pundits alike, with many questioning the rationale behind the move.

    Shami, who had a decent performance in the previous game, was expected to be a key player for the team. However, the team management has opted to bring back Rinku Singh, who has recovered from his injury and is ready to take the field once again.

    This decision has sparked speculation about the team’s strategy and selection process. Some believe that Shami’s performance in the previous game was not up to the mark, while others feel that Rinku Singh’s return is a strategic move to strengthen the team’s batting lineup.

    Whatever the reason may be, one thing is for sure – the competition for a spot in the playing XI is fierce, and every player will have to give their best to secure their place in the team. Only time will tell how this decision will affect the team’s performance in the upcoming games. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.

  • Is India planning to take back 18,000 illegal immigrants from US? – Firstpost


    India is hoping that its cooperation with the Trump administration will safeguard legal migration channels used by citizens to enter the US like student visas and the H-1B program

    The Indian government is working with the new US administration under President Donald Trump to bring back 18,000 undocumented Indian immigrants from the country after the leader launched sweeping orders to deport illegal migrants.

    According to a report by Bloomberg, the US and Indian governments have identified 18,000 Indian citizens living illegally in the country to be sent back home. Sources have told the publication that the figure can be much higher, although it is unclear how many more people can be added to the list since the number of
    Indian illegal immigrants is not known.

    Declaring illegal immigration a national emergency on the day of his inauguration, Trump ordered the Pentagon to provide support for border wall construction, detention space, and migrant transportation and empowered the secretary of Defense to send troops to the border as needed.

    “One of my most important obligations is to protect the American people from the disastrous effects of unlawful mass migration and resettlement. My Administration will marshal all available resources and authorities to stop this unprecedented flood of illegal aliens into the United States,” Trump said.

    India is hoping that its cooperation with the Trump administration will safeguard legal migration channels used by citizens to enter the US like student visas and the H-1B program.

    Failure to address the issue of illegal US migrants could negatively impact India’s labour and mobility agreements with other nations, sources familiar with the matter told Bloomberg. Amid a domestic job shortage, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government has signed migration agreements in recent years with several countries, including Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, Japan, Israel, and others.

    According to a Pew Research report of 2024, Indians (725,000) account for the third largest group of illegal immigrants in the US after Mexico and El Salvador.

    Meanwhile, data from the US Customs and Border Protection show that the number of unauthorised Indian immigrants is rising in the country. Notably, illegal crossings have surged at the less-trafficked northern US border, where Indians make up nearly a quarter of all crossings and represent the largest group of unlawful migrants intercepted at that entry point.



    In recent news, there have been reports suggesting that India is planning to take back 18,000 illegal immigrants from the United States. This move comes amid increasing tensions between the two countries over immigration policies.

    It is said that Indian officials are in talks with their US counterparts to discuss the repatriation of these individuals who have been living in the US without proper documentation. This issue has been a point of contention between the two nations, with the US pushing for the deportation of these individuals and India facing pressure to accept them back.

    While the details of the plan are still being worked out, this development raises questions about the complexities of immigration policies and the challenges faced by both countries in managing illegal immigration. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
