Jay Shah reappointed as ACC chairman for third successive year

Jay Shah
Jay Shah will lead the Asian Cricket Council for another year, while the Pakistan Cricket Board will chair the Asian Cricket Council next year, according to reports.

The chairmanship of the Asian Cricket Council rotates among its members on a routine basis. After Bangladesh, it was Sri Lanka Cricket Board's turn, but last year, with the consent of the Sri Lankan Board, Jay Shah's tenure was extended by one year.

Now, once again, in the annual general council meeting, Sri Lanka, sacrificing its turn for another year, requested an extension of Jay Shah's tenure, which was accepted by the member countries. Thus, the secretary of the Indian Cricket Board will continue to fulfill responsibilities in 2024.

In 2025, the head of the Pakistan Cricket Board will take over the position. Asia Cup agenda was not part of this meeting, so there was no formal discussion on it for its host. Pakistan's representation in the meeting was established by the acting chairman and election commissioner Shah Khawar along with Chief Operating Officer Salman Naseer.

Pakistan's veteran all-rounder and former skipper Shahid Afridi has finally reacted to Indian star batter Virat Kohli's remarks on playing in Pakistan. "I expected such a statement from Virat. I welcome Kohli, whether he comes to the Pakistan Super League (PSL) or with the Indian team," Afridi said while speaking during a tape ball event in Karachi on Saturday. Afridi's comments refer to Kohli's remarks, while speaking to Pakistani mountaineer Shehroze Kashif, wherein he said that he hopes to visit Pakistan "soon". "Give my regards to your family and all your friends. Hopefully, we [will] visit Pakistan soon [as] everyone has started visiting now," Kohli can be heard saying in the video. The video which dates back to 2022, has since then been deleted by Kashif, owing to the controversy that arose and in light of his personal contacts in the neighbouring country. "I had to delete the video because of my personal contacts in India

Then you might be wondering about the state of your own heart health. And men are no longer the primary candidates for heart attack and related high cholesterol. Women are now also just as much at risk of developing these stress-related killers. Environmental factors and changing lifestyles mean the example your parents set may no longer apply.

How to pick a good Watermelon?

Watermelon is one of the delightful fruits we eagerly await each summer to enjoy its sweet and refreshing taste. It's suitable for everyone, even those following a special diet. However, the tough rind makes it a bit of a mystery, with opening it feeling like a gamble. Here's how to choose a ripe and sweet watermelon: – Examine Stripes – The outer colour of a watermelon can hint at its inner quality. Opt for a watermelon with dark green, well-defined stripes. The lighter stripes should be a pale yellow. Additionally, choose a watermelon with a dull appearance, as a shiny rind often indicates it is not fully ripe. – Look for Yellow Spot – A yellow spot on the underside of the watermelon signifies it stayed on the ground longer to ripen. The deeper the yellow, edging towards orange, the better. This spot indicates the fruit is likely red and rich in mature fibres inside. – Check stem – To ensure a watermelon is sweet and ripe, inspect the stem. It should be dry and brow
