TOP NEWSSet eyes on World Cup two years ago, says MS DhoniDhoni and Yuvraj Singh entered the press conference hall to loud applause. Yuvraj, in his inimitable swagger, accepted the reception, shaking hands with the mediapersons and even signing some autographs. India were a step ahead: Kumar SangakkaraSangakkara is usually articulate and a smooth speaker. But on Saturday, he was at complete loss of words. And why not, Sri Lanka had to be content with the runners-up tag for the second year in a row. In what was essentially a replay of the celebrations that erupted on the streets of Pune after the victory over Pakistan in the semi-final, young Puneites flooded the streets on motorcycles with the Tricolour waving in their hands. Radia, whose tapped phone conversations with politicians, corporates, bureaucrats, and journalists, form a key part of investigations into the second generation mobile telephony spectrum scam, will appear before the panel at 11am tomorrow. The United States has said Islamic militants have been operating in the border region between Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina. While the historic win will push captain Dhoni to a new trajectory in the branding business, others like Yuvraj Singh will also see a rejuvenation, while even youngsters such as Virat Kohli and Suresh Raina are tipped to benefit immensely. Having carried the burden of expectations of a billion people, the Indian skipper lightened his burden by shaving off his head soon after the World Cup final, to fulfill a pledge to the gods. Following the ban the actress apparently has now been forced to let go of her favourite habit being constantly busy on her Blackberry. | ||
