I am honored to have received the Pounamu, also known as greenstone, from the New Zealand cricket team.
Gifting pounamu in Aotearoa is a tradition rooted in manaakitanga (hospitality) and the sharing of one’s blessings. This tradition has been carried through to the modern day.

Thank you for your hard work and dedication towards Tiger Cricket! You have set the bar high for sports journalism in Bangladesh!
Keep up the great work and best of luck!
Note: Really liked your first book; hope you will continue writing beyond your reports. You are a good writer!
Kevin Wickham becomes first West Indies batter since Sewdatt Shivnarine in 1978 to score 2x50s on Test debut.

Take a bow, Towhid Hridoy . Got to be the most sensational Test innings of the year. 👏👏

An innings of this quality, consequence and drama usually piques my interest.
I tried to recreate what I saw all day in Sylhet.

Superb double century from 25yr old Towhid Hridoy in only his 3rd Test match. His maiden Test ton converted to 242*. I hope he can go on to lead the next generation of Bangladesh batting.
Just the number of square-cuts that went to the boundary, the way he played the cover drive, or the straight sixes. Hridoy played some of his best shots under pressure. He gave away at least 50 singles too.

Proud to say I was at the ground working in the press box for every Bangladesh double-hundred till date.
Mushfiq in Galle 2013
Tamim in Khulna 2015
Shakib in Wellington 2017
Mushfiq in Dhaka 2018
Mushfiq in Dhaka 2020
Hridoy in Sylhet 2026
Towhid Hridoy completely overturned West Indies with the most epic double-hundred. He did it all with some of the best strokeplay.

Tough not to like, and really enjoy Hasan Mahmud as a bowler. Very simple method of consistency and repeatability. The type of bowler that if there a little something in the pitch, he is right in the contest. Having a nice calendar year with the ball.
Nobody does journalism to make everyone happy.
To say sorry for it is lame.
To make a PR campaign out of it just to celebrate your company's birth anniversary is on point with Prothom Alo. – at Sylhet, Bangladesh

Brendan Taylor's 131 is the highest score by a batsman over the age of 40 since Graham Gooch's 210 vs NZ in 1994. Misbah-ul-Haq made 5 centuries after his 40th birthday and Shivnarine Chanderpaul 1, but the highest was only 114.
The highest score after 40 is 236 by Eric Rowan.
Amir Jangoo with a superb century on the first day of the Sylhet Test. Excellent shots around the wicket, sound temperament as well.

John Campbell and Tagenarine Chanderpaul out for the Sylhet Test with viral fever. The worst time to get a flu for a Test top-order.

Interview with Justin Greaves on his epic 202* and 180, and everything in between.

Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026).
