Time and tide wait for no man. But boy, is there a tide in the affairs of some men who wait to know every aspect of your time. 'How long are you planning to stay?' has to be in the same league of pointless questions as 'How does the defendant plead?' and 'Bhaiyya, these veggies are fresh, right?' It has the additional virtue of being downright rude. There is a certain candour, even chutzpah, when someone — usually an elderly relative, or a friend of the same age-group — asks things like 'How much is your 'take home'?' or 'What rent do you pay for this place?' I have fobbed off these Buland Darwaza-prying inquiries from non-Enforcement Directorate folks by either shrugging and ho-humming back with 'Oh, it's okay', or 'Some more papad, uncle?' But when faced with those persistent questions about one's itinerary and schedule, the ripostes trip less thick and fast off one's tongue. 'Spacetime' questions outside astrophysics are fundamentally conversation fillers, literally time-pass queries, like talking about the weather (unless you were in Dubai, or went out to vote last week). It also uses time — or, more accurately, temporality — as a crutch to hobble along a tete-a-tete that, unbeknown to the intrusive questioner, is as offensive as the Viet Cong's Tet one. As far as social etiquette goes, 'How long will you be there?' is on a par with asking a lady not just her age, but how long it is till she hits menopause.

DC vs SRH 2024: Chasing a massive target of 267 runs at the pitch of Arun Jaitley Stadium, New Delhi, the Delhi Capitals began their innings in Sunrisers Hyderabad style as opener Prithvi Shaw and batter Jake Fraser-McGurk displayed some fireworks to make the game more exciting.

Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans will be desperate to arrest the slide and get back to winning ways in their Indian Premier League match here on Sunday. Former champions GT have slipped to eighth position in the pecking order after an embarrassing loss to Delhi Capitals at home, where they were bowled out for 89 to suffer their third defeat in four matches. PBKS are struggling in the ninth place following a nine-run loss to Mumbai Indians away on Thursday night, the margin of defeat made respectable by an incredible rearguard act by the in-form young duo of Ashutosh Sharma and Shashank Singh after the team was tottering at 14/4 in a chase of 193. Five losses and two wins in seven outings hardly inspire confidence and irrespective of the fact that their upcoming opponents are also struggling to get their act right, PBKS will have their task cut out in front of their fans, who had little to cheer about so far this season at the newly-inaugurated home venue.
