Chennai Super Kings will be hoping for a repeat of their first Indian Premier League-13 game against Mumbai Indians when they encounter the defending champions in Sharjah tomorrow. For, they have experienced victory only twice after that five-wicket win in the September 19 tournament-opener at Abu Dhabi. Chennai Super Kings' bottom-place existence is unprecedented and being all but out of the tournament must hurt their fans big-time. To be fair, the men in yellow have been at the receiving end of some hard blows even before their pacer Deepak Chahar bowled the first ball of IPL-13 for them. Chahar was declared COVID-19 positive and their fans had to swallow bitter pills in the unavailability of Harbhajan Singh and Suresh Raina's decision to return home. Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who is placed at the heart of Chennai Super Kings' upheavals, has had to take things in his stride like he has never had to do before in his 13-year journey with the IPL. It's always a situation of intense pressure..

Easy rider A child enjoys a drive on her toy car, safe on a pavement in Dadar West on Wednesday. Pic/Sayyed Sameer Abedi Ranveer's food for thought This year has been a great equaliser of sorts for the F&B industry.

Many people in the industry started bakeries and YouTube classes, discovering a new side to themselves. Brar told this diarist, "I've always believed that food is a giver.

Mumbai: Railways to open for all soon, but preparations not up to mark

4 hours ago

News / Mid-Day/ News

Opening soon after seven-month shutdown, yet unprepared. No planning, no access control, and no sturdy online ticketing system as a back-up on Mumbai's suburban railway, say passenger representatives. As officials meet to discuss throwing open Mumbai locals to the general public, is the railways really prepared to handle the crowds that will arrive at stations post-lockdown? NOt really. Indian Railways doesn't look prepared. Two things are a hurdle — no access control to stations and lack of a sturdy digital payment option. The first need to upgrade their digital payment app, open it to all payment modes at mass level and allow multiple channels, instead of just one app, which keeps crashing when there's pressure. I am sure technology will be available. Secondly, stations could have been equipped with access control to restrict crowds," a senior passenger association member said. Commuters get into a train at Ghatkopar station. Pic/Sayyed Sameer Abedi "It is correct that the Rail..
