On @Diplomat_APAC I write on why the US needs a big bang defence tech deal with India that can symbolise depth of defence relations & 3 ways to alter defence ties - Tech transfer - Joint production - Helping indigenise Russian weapons components https://t.co/RscU6ASe9b

The two countries do not have a single project that they can hold up as symbolic of the depth of their defense cooperation.

Bihar - ₹10,000 Next state election will perhaps be a race to declare bigger amounts. Karnataka is already a “leader” in this space.

Are we seeing Washington Sundar as a number 3, even in SENA? He is good with the bat, but the number 3 spot in Tests is a very important and a specialist position.

We can’t play spin, a strength we had in the years gone by. There is no “home advantage” in playing on turning tracks. It goes against us as seen in several matches in the last few years.
India lose the 1st test to South Africa at the Eden Gardens. An unacceptable batting performance, even for the new team that’s being built.

Lots of thoughts came to mind when I saw this. Not sure if I should say all of them publicly, but can’t help saying the main ones (I say this as someone who handled innovation for the Navy under #NIIO and is involved with multiple startups post premature retirement). Let’s

Sometimes conventional wisdom is good. Specialist batsmen are needed at the top. We messed up our first innings, and in serious trouble in the 2nd at 7 down with plenty still needed to win. Gill retiring hurt, hurt us. Still no excuses for the batting performance.
India playing 3 pure batsmen and rest are all rounders. Don’t know when was the last we had this. Even Rahul keeps among the 3.

China’s amphibious assault ship is the size of India’s flagship carrier, and with EMALS. Detractors of carrier aviation in India call it string ducks, esp after China developed “carrier killer” missiles. But China itself is steaming ahead on carrier aviation.
After less than a year since its launch, China's first electromagnetic catapult-equipped Type 076 amphibious assault ship embarked on its maiden sea trial. As a new-generation amphibious assault ship of the PLA Navy, the Sichuan (Hull 51) has a full-load displacement of over
