Certain words are printed in bold to help you to locate them while answering some of the questions. There is a story told of a king who lived long ago in a country across the sea. He was a very wise king, and spared no efforts to teach his people good habits. Often he did things which seemed to them strange and useless; but everything he did, he did to teach his people to be industrious and careful. "Nothing good can come to a nation, whose people complain and expect others to fix their problems for them" he said. "Good things from life come to those who take matters into their hands." One night, while everyone was asleep, he placed a large stone in the middle of the road that led past the place. Then he hid behind a bush, and waited to see what would happen. First came a farmer with his wagon heavily loaded with grain, which he was taking to the mill to be ground. "Well, whoever saw such carelessness?" he said crossly, as he turned his wagon and drove around the stone. "Why don't these lazy people have that stone taken off from the road? " And so he went on complaining about the uselessness of others, but not touching the stone himself. Soon afterwards, a young soldier came singing along the road. The long trail of his cap waved in the breeze, and a bright sword hung at his side.

    SUNDAY, JUNE 28, 2020 (PAGE 4) SPORTS A Dream Indian Cricket Team Sunil Fernandes The advent of limited-over cricket from the 1970s has irrevocably changed the way the game is played. With all fixtures locked down, one cricket fan lets his mind wander to what might have been. Vasant Raji, India’s oldest first-class cricketer, passed away recently. He was 100 years old. His passing, perhaps, is a time for cricket to remember and cele- brate some of the other great stalwarts of Indian test cricket too – especially when the coronavirus pandemic has meant no sporting events can take place. India played its ever first ever test match at the historic Lords Cricket Ground in 1932 against England. Forty-two years later, in 1974, India played its first ever limited-over international, also in England. Pahlan Ratanji “Polly” Unarguably, the advent of limited-over cricket, from the 1970s, has irrevoca- Mulvantrai Himmatlal Vijay Merchant Lala Amarnath C.K. “Colonel” Nayudu M.A.K. “Tiger” Pataudi bly changed the way the game is played.

The legends of a forgotten era. Here is that XI.

  • National: International
    12 January 2014 National: Chennai in NYT’s ‘52 places to go in 2014’ list Chennai has been chosen as one of the 52 places in the world worth a visit this year. In a list drawn up by the New York Times, ‘52 places to go in 2014,’ Chennai, capital of Tamil Nadu, has been placed at number 26. Chennai had been long considered a getaway to popular South Indian travel destinations like Kerala but was overlooked as an attraction in itself. The city boasts of being a national cultural capital and home to several dance and music schools. Featuring at the top of NYT’s list is Cape Town, South Africa, which has continued to attract tourists from across the globe for its amazing beaches and nightlife. Other places include Downtown in Los Angeles, Namibia, Seychelles, Ecuador, Arctic Circle, Nepal, and Niagara Falls. CRPF deploys 200 CoBRA commandos in Bihar for anti-Naxal operations In the backdrop of the Union Home Ministry recently pulling up Bihar for its “failure” in controlling Naxal violence, the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) has now deployed close to 200 commandos of its special Commando Battalion for Resoloute Action (CoBRA) battalion to bring lethality in its offensives in the State. The anti-Naxal warfare trained commandos will now not only assist about 5,000 troops of the CRPF already deployed and tasked for these operations in the State, but also carry out specific intelligence inputs based strikes. The unit of the 207th battalion of the CoBRA has been based in Jamui, after taking them out from West Bengal where the Naxal situation is under control.
