Indian bowlers crumbled in the face of Tom Latham’s counterattacking hundred as New Zealand rallied to crush India by seven wickets in the first ODI here on Friday.On a ground where a 300plus total had been chased only once, India fancied their chances after posting 306 for seven and then leaving the New Zealanders at 88 for three in the 20th over. The hosts had the last laugh in the end though, reaching the target with 17 balls to spare thanks to Latham’s unbeaten 104-ball 145 and skipper Kane Williamson’s 94 not out off 98 deliveries as they added 221 runs for an unbeaten fourth-wicket partnership. At the end of the 39th over, New Zealand needed 91 in 66 balls at nearly 8.30 runs an over. By the time Shardul Thakur (1/63) had completed a forgettable 40th over,

the hosts were in total control of the game, with Latham amassing 25 runs with the help of four fours and a six. That over swung the match firmly in New Zealand’s favour as the visitors struggled to contain Latham who galloped towards victory. Latham’s belligerent innings comprised as many as 19 boundaries and five sixes, while Williamson hit seven fours and one maximum. Tearaway pacer Umran Malik (2/66) made his presence felt on debut with his thunderbolts after an impressive show by the Indian batters, though the youngster from Jammu proved to be expensive.
Iranian police arrested the former international football player Voria Ghafouri, who backed the ongoing protests against Iran’s regime, Ghafouri, a player of Kurdish origin, is one of Iran’s most prominent footballers. However, he was not chosen to go to the World Cup in Qatar this year. His arrest comes amid scrutiny of the conduct of Iran’s national team in Qatar, where they refused to sing the national anthem in solidarity with anti-government protests. The government has launched a violent crackdown on the demonstrations that have rocked Iran for the past two months. Ghafouri has been a vocal critic of Iranian authorities
throughout his career. Notably, the athlete has long objected a ban on women spectators at men’s football matches, in addition to criticizing Tehran’s foreign policy. He recently called for an end to a crackdown on demonstrations in Iran’s western Kurdistan region. Ghafouri also expressed sympathy for the family of Jina Mahsa Amini, the 22-year-old woman whose death in the custody of Iran’s notorious morality police ignited the latest wave of protests.
The German trade union Verdi called several thousand Amazon workers in Germany to go on strike on Friday for higher wages. On Black Friday, workers in 10 of the 20 warehouse and shipping centers will stop work, the union said on Thursday. Verdi is demanding better working conditions and the recognition of the collective agreements of the retail and mail order trade. The walkout is part of the international day of action “Make Amazon Pay”, in which trade unions and organizations in over 20 countries, including the US and France, are taking part. The international strike day is “important” because a global company like Amazon cannot be countered “locally,
regionally or nationally,” the union said. The company itself does not expect any impact on customers in Germany from the strikes. At Amazon, preparations for Black Friday week “started months ago,” the company said. Amazon employs over 20,000 permanent logistics workers in Germany. According to Amazon, the starting wage in the company, including bonuses, is almost €13 ($13.50) per hour. After two years of working, the average annual wage exceeds €33,000 ($34,340). Black Friday is a colloquial term in the US for the Friday after Thanksgiving when many retailers give large discounts. It has long been the busiest shopping day of the year in the United States and the tradition is now spreading to other countries.

It was a spiritual extravaganza when sea of humanity flowed on the Nirankari Adhyatmik Sthal, G.T.Road Samalkha. The venue witnessed a grand spiritual gettogether in the vast grounds from November 16 to 20, 2022. The occasion was the 75th Annual Nirankari Sant Samagam, a milestone in the history of Samagams of the Sant Nirankari Mission, with a participation of lakhs of devotees from all across India and around 3000 devotees coming from various countries abroad. Thousands of other God loving people also participated. Many of them received God knowledge (Brahmgyan). The Samagam, being 75th in series had started way back in 1948, was of 5 days. This year a whole day of 16th November was earmarked for Sewadal Rally which on other previous Samagams used to be the first half of the Second day of Samagam programmes. This was to highlight the importance of sewa in devotion towards humanity at large. The Samagam focused on the theme – “Spirituality and Humanity Hand in Hand”. One could get
the idea from the hundreds of hoardings displayed on every route leading to the venue, the Nirankari Pradarshani, the Bal Pradarshani and other visuals all around. The proceedings of the Samagam including Sewadal Rally which were webcast live from the Mission’s website also dealt with the same theme through speeches, poems, songs and skits etc. The devotees rendered their thoughts in a variety of languages including Hindi, Punjabi, Urdu, English, Sindhi, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Rajasthani, Bhojpuri, Multani, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Assamese, Garhwali and some tribal languages, thus evidenced the spread of Mission crossing barriers of languages. The focus was, however, thrown on the theme by Her Holiness Satguru Mata Sudiksha Ji Maharaj herself. Her Holiness blessed the participants that spirituality brings forth transformation to the inner self of a person beautifying one inside out resulting into humanity in every action of such a person. She further stated that when one gets enlightened with God knowledge, the mind gets freedom of negativities just as the darkness goes away with the onset of light.
