When the US Ambassador threatened India's "Strategic Autonomy" policy over India's friendship with Russia - much more than meets the eye was at stake. Let us unpack how the Ukraine war has fundamentally changed the US and the world. And why are we here anyway?
The first test between Indian and Australia recently saw a superlative batting performance from Mahendra Singh Dhoni, when many had written him off. And when he started hitting, he really hit them hard. What a performance that was.
