Team Goemkarponn MARGAO: Congress leader and former Chairperson Savio Coutinho charged that the recruitment of Site Supervisor is illegal and in violation of the recruitment rules(RR) laid down in the Municipal act.

New Delhi: IND vs AUS: Ever since the India squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy was announced, a major question that has been on everyone’s mind is: How to win Test matches in Australia without Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane and Mohammed Shami? The trio played crucial roles in India’s previous couple of tours to Australia, especially Pujara with the bat. The 2018-19 series will always be remembered for Pujara’s heroics Down Under. Facing over 1200 deliveries in a 4-match Test series is no joke and he did it with conviction. He emerged as the highest scorer of the tour with 521…

New Delhi: Does Virat Kohli deserve a place in the Indian Test team for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia?

In 2018-19 and 2020-21, India proved that lightning can strike twice with back to back series wins but the manner in which New Zealand came, saw and decimated them on home turf recently has certainly hit the psyche of an otherwise world-class unit. The undeniable truth is that…
