When will MS Dhoni return to Chennai Super Kings’ squad after calf strain?

New Delhi: The IPL (Indian Premier League) 2026 season got off to a horrid start for five-time champions Chennai Super Kings. Led by Ruturaj Gaikwad, the five-time champions have faced three losses in their first three games and currently occupy 10th place in the standings.ย  With subpar performances across all three matches, it is clear that CSK are missing the services of veteran wicket-keeper batter MS Dhoni. Interestingly, Dhoni was ruled out of the first two weeks of the IPL due to a calf strain and has yet to play his first game for the side this season.ย  With CSK…

IDF Special Forces unit, intelligence and more: How Israel helped US in rescuing downed F-15 crew from Iran

Tel Aviv: Nearly 48 hours after Iran was able to shoot down an American F-15E Strike Eagle over its territory, the US military on Sunday was able to rescue second crew member of the downed jet, but only after a meticulous planning that even involved a "deception campaign" by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Now, fresh details have emerged about the "daring" rescue operation, with reports claiming that even Israel supported the American military in its campaign. According to a report by The Jerusalem Post, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) acted in "cooperation" with the US military, launching a series…

‘It’s on me today’: CSK skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad takes responsibility for 43-run loss against RCB

Bengaluru: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad has taken the responsibility for the 43-run loss against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) on Sunday. Chasing a mammoth target of 251 runs, the five-time champions were folded for 207 runs. However, the fact that they crossed the 200-run mark was, in itself, an achievement as they were 84/5 at one stage in the run-chase. For the same reason, Ruturaj felt that had he scored some runs at the top of the order, the result would've been different. Ruturaj admitted that even he was surprised that they reached 200 despite losing three…

‘We thought it was a trap’: The 3-word message that rattled US during F15 pilot rescue mission

New Delhi: US President Donald Trump revealed details of the high-risk rescue mission inside Iran, where the downed F-15 crew member was feared to have fallen into enemy hands. The concern began when the pilot, after ejecting, sent a short radio message, โ€œPower be to God.โ€ A US defence official later clarified the exact words were โ€œGod is good,โ€ but Trump said the phrasing โ€œdidnโ€™t sound right,โ€ raising fears that the pilot might be in Iranian custody and sending false signals. Fears of trap later ruled out According to Trump, US forces briefly suspected the message could be part of…

Dewald Brevis injury update: CSK coach Stephen Fleming reveals when will South Africa batter get fit

Bengaluru: Chennai Super Kings' travails in IPL 2026 continued even on Sunday as the defending champions thumped them by 43 runs at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Even as the five-time champions are missing their talisman MS Dhoni, another key player Dewald Brevis has also not played a single game so far due to side strain. CSK are certainly missing his impact in the middle-order and are languishing at the bottom of the points table after three massive losses. However, CSK head coach Stephen Fleming is hopeful that Brevis will regain full fitness and reckons that he will play the…
