ICC Champions Trophy 2025: Discussion on 'hybrid' model set to dominate ICC meeting
International Cricket Council finds itself in a spot of bother as its all-powerful board meets on Friday to thrash out the long-awaited schedule of next year's Champions Trophy with an unyielding Pakistan refusing to consider the 'Hybrid' model of hosting the event despite India's refusal to play there. The meeting will be held virtually. India's decision not to send the team to Pakistan and the PCB's defiant stand in not acceding to the hybrid system have placed the future of the marquee event in balance. «At this point, the hybrid format is the best option. We hope that all the parties involved will take a wise call for the sake of the tournament. It's not good for the tournament to have it without India and Pakistan,» a source close to the development told PTI. The ICC members are trying to sell the point to the PCB that without the blue riband India vs Pakistan fixture, the Champions Trophy will lose all its sheen and, more importantly, there will be massive financial implications.

Onion prices are staying firm at a five-year high as a combination of strong export demand and delayed and damaged kharif crop due to prolonged monsoon rainfall has impacted an expected fall in prices post Diwali season.

DPIIT gives nod to Hinduja Group firm IIHL for acquisition of Reliance Capital
Hinduja Group firm IIHL for acquisition of debt-ridden Reliance Capital Ltd (RCAP), sources said. DPIIT approval was required as some of the shareholders of IndusInd International Holdings Ltd (IIHL) are residents of Hong Kong, a special administrative region controlled by China. According to Press Note 3, if an entity from a nation sharing a land border with India (China, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Bhutan, Nepal, Myanmar, and Afghanistan), or if a citizen or permanent resident of any such country is the beneficial owner of an investment in India, they are required to pursue investment through the government approval route. According to sources, the green signal from the DPIIT will help take forward the resolution plan submitted by Mauritius-based IIHL, which emerged as the successful bidder by submitting Rs 9,861-crore bid for the debt-ridden financial firm.

America got the world driving. Now it’s going home
Carl Benz might have invented the automobile, but it’s the United States that got us to drive them. The relentless export of American cars and car culture put the world on the road in the 20th century. By the 1960s, Ford Motor Co. had plants in almost every major European country, as well as Argentina, Brazil, Egypt, India, Israel, Peru, Pakistan, South Africa, Turkey, and Zimbabwe. Right now, it’s passing that baton to China with barely a fight. The US car industry that emerges will be smaller, less influential — and, eventually, less profitable and financially sustainable.

After Pakistani TikToker Imsha Rehman and Minahil Malik, Indonesian sports influencer’s private video goes viral; who is Lydia Onic?
Minahil Malik and Imsha Rehman’s explicit videos were leaked online, Indonesian social media sensation Lydia Onic has become the latest victim of this worrying trend. A leaked explicit video allegedly featuring the Indonesian e-sports personality has stirred significant conversation online. The 12-minute clip, which many claim shows someone resembling Lydia, also known as Lydia Setiawan in gaming circles, has gone viral on social media. This incident mirrors recent controversies involving Pakistani TikTok stars Imsha Rehman and Minahil Malik, both of whom faced public scrutiny after private videos surfaced online. Imsha Rehman, a 22-year-old TikTok influencer with a substantial fan base, became the target of harsh criticism when her intimate video was leaked. While some accused her of orchestrating the leak for attention, evidence suggests she might have fallen victim to a data breach. Overwhelmed by the backlash and a flood of negative comments, Rehman deactivated her social media accounts, stating, «Until the video stops circulating, I am staying offline.» Despite her efforts, screenshots from the video spread widely, sparking memes and intensifying the controversy.
