Men’s ODI World Cup: I want Pakistan to reach the semi-finals and play India: Sourav Ganguly

Men’s ODI World Cup: I want Pakistan to reach the semi-finals and play India: Sourav Ganguly

New Delhi, Nov 9: Former Indian cricketer Sourav Ganguly on Thursday said he wants Pakistan to qualify for the semis of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 and play against India.

India became the first team to qualify for the World Cup 2023 semi-finals when they beat Sri Lanka in Mumbai. Then they hammered second-placed South Africa to ensure they would finish on top of the points table at the end of the league stage, winning 8 matches in a row.

“I want Pakistan to reach the semi-finals and play India. It can’t be a bigger semi-final than that,” Ganguly told Sports Tak.

The fight for the fourth position continues after Australia won a thriller against Afghanistan on Tuesday in Pune. Pakistan will play its last match against England on Saturday, they need to win the match by a big margin and hope New Zealand loses its match or gets washed out against Sri Lanka on Thursday.

Depending on the opponents, the date and venue of India’s semi-final would also change. If it is against New Zealand or Afghanistan, then India’s semi-final will be played at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on November 15 but if Pakistan qualify, then India will play the semi-final at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on November 16.

And that is one of the biggest reasons why former India captain Sourav Ganguly wants a blockbuster India vs Pakistan semi-final.

Ganguly also said he doesn’t want to jinx India’s chances as they have been playing some outstanding cricket throughout the tournament.

“No, it won’t be a shock (if this Indian team doesn’t win the World Cup). It doesn’t happen in sports like that. The entire nation is happy with the way India is playing. The way they have played in the 8 games, it appears that there is a big gap from the rest of the teams. I hope they keep playing like this. I don’t think the level will drop so drastically that they will suddenly start playing poor cricket. Fingers crossed, they are looking very good” said Ganguly.

New Zealand has a slight advantage over Afghanistan and Pakistan due to their higher net run rate (+0.398). A win against Sri Lanka in Bengaluru would confirm their spot in the semis. If New Zealand loses or the match is washed out, Pakistan and Afghanistan could advance. Pakistan needs to beat England to advance to the semi-final, while Afghanistan needs to beat South Africa by 140 runs.–(IANS)

Fearing ‘untimely’ snow, apple growers start pruning trees

Experts term the move as ‘unscientific’

Jahangeer Ganaie

Srinagar, Nov 08 (KNO): Apple growers worried about untimely snow in Kashmir have started early pruning of trees while experts have termed the move as “unscientific”.

Growers from various areas of the valley told the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO) that about 20 percent of fruit is yet to be plucked but many among them have started pruning trees fearing “untimely” snowfall which would damage the crop.

Aamir Hussian, a fruit grower from Shopian, said, “We are yet to pack half of our produce but have completed pruning as the weather department has predicted snowfall soon.”

“Our apple trees suffered huge damage in the last two years and if the same happens to our orchards this year, we will collapse economically,” he added.

Another grower from Anantnag said that the pruning of trees is normally carried out by the November end. However, we are apprehensive about damages; that is why we have started the process, he said.

Most of the growers have kept their apple produce at safer places so as to complete pruning first. “This way there won’t be any damage to apple trees in case of snowfall,” they said.

Aamir added, “We know it isn’t the right time for pruning but it won’t cause so much damage as snowfall causes at this stage.”

However, experts said that pruning when leaves are green is wrong as it takes nutrients away from trees.

Dr Tariq, a pathologist at SKUAST-Kashmir, told KNO that pruning at a time when leaves are green affects the health of trees. “Cutting green leaves containing photosynthesis means cutting food supply to the trees and wasting all energy,” he said, adding that the best time for pruning is when leaves shed green colour and turn yellow—(KNO)

Finally, Kashmir University closes PG Admissions-2023 as academic calendar derailed

Finally, Kashmir University closes PG Admissions-2023 as academic calendar derailed

Srinagar, Nov 08 (KNO): The Kashmir University (KU) authorities on Wednesday formally closed the admission process for PG and other programmes after facing a massive flak for keeping it open for over six months in a desperate bid to fill up vacant seats.

As per news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), after facing resentment, the Director Admissions, KU, Prof. M Farooq Mir issued the Admission Closure Notice, which stated that “Admission process for PG (Professional and Non-Professional) and other programmes offered through the University of Kashmir shall stand closed from November 13, 2023.” However, the notification said that courses/programmes like M.Tech, M.Pharm, LLM, 4-year B.Tech (Lateral Entry) shall remain open till further orders.

The Director’s notice read that Heads/Directors/Coordinators/Principals shall ensure that the admission related formalities be completed up to and including November 13, 2023 till 4.30pm and “no request for admission whatsoever can be entertained.” Notably, KU started the admission process somewhere in April this year and held the entrance examination in May-June. Since then, the admission process has remained open for General and Self-Finance categories owing to a huge number of vacant seats for the first time in its history. Academicians had voiced serious concerns over failure of the University to close the admissions, saying the University was employing desperate measures to fill vacant seats “at the expense of merit and quality of candidates.”

The University for the first time even called for Spot Admissions to fill up the vacant seats across its main and satellite campuses. The newly-introduced courses in Main, North and South campuses found few takers, reflecting the University’s lackadaisical approach in doing proper ground work before starting the new courses. “Even with today’s present Admission Closure Notice, the Director Admissions has kept admission open in few courses like MTech, LLM and B Tech where the University is unable to find takers,” said a KU teacher, wishing anonymity. He said by keeping admissions open endlessly, the University has cut a sorry figure and created a very bad perception in the eyes of the public. Sources said at least 90 percent of self finance category seats remained vacant this year, while nearly 80 seats haven’t been filled in General category also. “The Kashmir University authorities issued an academic calendar for 2023 in August when admissions are still open in November. Children have developed this perception of delayed degrees in KU which is one of the reasons for poor response from students,” said another assistant professor. He said another reason for the loss of student strength could be the failure of KU to hold regular academic audits to assess viability of its courses—(KNO)
