If you're keeping even half an eye on the IPL 2025 season, you already know the Mumbai Indians (MI) are cooking up something special. After a rocky start that had some fans scratching their heads, the five-time champions have suddenly hit turbo mode — and now, they're looking scarier than ever.

In the wake of the devastating terror attack in Pahalgam on April 22, security forces in South Kashmir have stepped up their operations against suspected terrorists. On the night of April 26-27, three more homes tied to individuals suspected of terrorist activities were demolished, bringing the total number of homes razed to nine since the tragic attack that claimed the lives of 26 innocent civilians. The recent actions have sparked significant political debate and drawn strong reactions from local leaders.

Asaduddin Owaisi, the chief of the All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen (AIMIM), didn’t hold back on Sunday when he unleashed a fiery response against Pakistan, accusing them of acting just like ISIS after the tragic terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed 26 innocent lives. During a public address in Maharashtra’s Parbhani, Owaisi was clear in his condemnation, emphasizing that Pakistan's actions were an act of terror against the citizens of India, a move that echoed the ruthless methods of global terror organizations.

Russian authorities recently made headlines with a dramatic claim: they've charged a man they say is a "Ukrainian special services agent" with terrorism following a car explosion that killed Russian General Yaroslav Moskalik. The blast occurred on Friday, in Balashikha, a city situated less than 20 miles east of Moscow. The suspect, identified as Ignat Kuzin, allegedly purchased the car that exploded. According to Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) and the Russian Investigation Committee, Kuzin’s connection to the explosion places him at the center of this tense and high-profile investigation.

During the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday, Eugene Daniels, the president of the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA), delivered a powerful and impassioned speech defending both the organization and the free press. The event, typically a moment of gathering for journalists, politicians, and celebrities, once again felt the absence of President Donald Trump, who chose to snub the occasion for another year in a row.

In a surprising and somewhat unconventional twist, President Donald Trump was recently spotted with a new addition to his entourage: none other than Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley. The duo was seen disembarking Marine One in Washington, D.C. on a Sunday, just a day before the Super Bowl-winning Eagles were set to make their visit to the White House. It certainly raised some eyebrows as the NFL star hitched a ride with Trump after spending a significant portion of the afternoon at the president’s Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey.

And just like that, the Oklahoma City Thunder are kicking back for another week, waiting to see who’s next. After taking care of business against a battered Memphis Grizzlies squad — who were missing their star Ja Morant — the Thunder sealed a 117-115 win in Game 4 on Saturday. That sweep closed out their first-round series, and now, it’s all about hurry-up-and-wait mode once again.

Rishabh Pant’s struggles continued to haunt him as his woeful form persisted during the Lucknow Super Giants’ clash against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday. The captain of LSG faced a mere two balls before falling for just four runs—an all-too-familiar tale of frustration this season. His departure came in a bizarre fashion: a reverse sweep that went straight to short third man. This was a poorly executed shot by a player of his calibre. The ball, delivered full on the stumps by Will Jacks, wasn’t challenging enough to warrant such an ambitious stroke, but Pant still went low, attempting a reverse sweep. Unfortunately, he mistimed the shot, and it landed directly in the hands of Karn Sharma.

In the highly awaited IPL clash between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the legendary Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on April 27, 2025, all eyes were on Digvesh Rathi, who once again made a memorable impact with his signature 'notebook' celebration. It was an electrifying moment that had fans cheering and talking long after the game, particularly after Rathi dismissed MI's aggressive batsman Ryan Rickelton in a brilliant display of spin bowling.

The IPL 2025 season is heating up, and a high-voltage clash is set to unfold as Delhi Capitals (DC) take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Sunday, April 27. Both teams are in top form, and the outcome of this match will decide who takes the No. 1 spot on the points table, with a win propelling the victor to 14 points, ahead of Gujarat Titans.

Mumbai Indians delivered a dominant performance in their IPL 2025 clash against Lucknow Super Giants, securing a commanding 54-run victory that kept their playoff dreams alive. This clinical all-round display highlighted their depth and resilience, crucial in the high-stakes battle for a top-four finish.

Mayank Yadav's return to competitive cricket after a six-month hiatus was a moment of anticipation, as the tearaway fast bowler made his comeback in a T20 match against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium. This was only the second time in his career that he bowled the opening over in a T20, and to top it off, he took his first T20 wicket using a slower ball. The shift in his bowling style was unmistakable, as Mayank had always been known for his blistering pace. But this time, he had come back slower, clocking a top speed of 142.7kph, a far cry from his usual 156.7kph that once turned heads on the speed gun.

Former Union Minister and Congress leader, Mani Shankar Aiyar, recently stirred a debate by linking the tragic Pahalgam attack to what he referred to as the "unresolved questions of the Partition." Speaking at an event in the national capital, Aiyar delved deep into India's past, suggesting that the aftermath of the Partition continues to reverberate through contemporary events. His remarks came in the wake of a deadly terrorist attack near the picturesque town of Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed the lives of 26 people, most of them tourists, earlier this week.
