🥇 1. India Shines at Para Athletics: Historic Medal Haul

What’s the news

India hosted the 2025 World Para Athletics Championships in New Delhi (first time in India/South Asia). 

Indian athletes won 22 medals in total, including multiple golds. 

Over the event, 35 world records and 104 championship records were broken. 

But the event also faced criticism: infrastructure delays, stray dog bites of foreign coaches, issues with VIP zones, etc. 

Why it matters

Hosting a big event successfully (even with issues) boosts India's reputation in global sports.

The medal haul encourages para-athletes and shows investment is paying off.

The problems mentioned are lessons for future events.

🏏 2. Women’s Cricket World Cup: South Africa Dominates New Zealand

Key match highlight

In Indore (India), South Africa beat New Zealand by 6 wickets in Women’s ODI World Cup. 

Tazmin Brits smashed a century (her 4th in 5 matches) in the tournament. 

Bowler Nonkululeko Mlaba took 4 wickets to knock out New Zealand’s batting line. 

Other developments

The World Cup began with India vs Sri Lanka in Guwahati. That game set an attendance record in women’s cricket in India: 22,843 spectators. 

In that opener, India won by 59 runs. 

This shows women’s cricket is growing fast, with big crowds and big performances.

🏏 3. Cricket: South Africa Defends WTC Title, Hazlewood Picks Formats

South Africa in Tests

South Africa starts its World Test Championship (WTC) title defense with a two-Test series in Pakistan, then matches in India. 

Their captain, Aiden Markram, is leading in place of injured Temba Bavuma. 

Markram acknowledged that being champions means everyone will aim to beat them. 

Josh Hazlewood’s decision

Australia’s fast bowler Josh Hazlewood chose to focus on white-ball cricket (ODIs & T20s) rather than domestic first-class (Shield) games, to prepare for Ashes and future tournaments. 

He is balancing his workload and is likely playing fewer games, focusing on formats where he thinks he can contribute best. 

This shows players now strategize: pick formats wisely so their bodies last longer and performance stays high.

🏛️ 4. Stadiums, Leagues & New Events

Rajgir International Cricket Stadium, Bihar

Bihar built its first world-class cricket stadium in Rajgir, Nalanda district. 

The stadium covers ~18 acres, capacity ~45,000. 

It has 13 professional pitches, gym, medical centre, pavilion, VIP boxes. 

This will help bring national & international matches to new regions.

ILT20 Season 4 Auction

The ILT20 (United Arab Emirates league) held its player auction recently. 

Andre Fletcher got the highest bid: USD 260,000 to stay with MI Emirates. 

Teams used both experience and youth to build balanced squads. 

Real Kabaddi League goes international

The Real Kabaddi League (RKL) is going global: its first international tournament will be in Dubai, Dec 2025, featuring India, Iran, Bangladesh, UAE, Australia. 

This move shows how kabaddi is expanding beyond India & South Asia.

Archery Premier League launches in India

India started its Archery Premier League from 2 to 12 October in New Delhi. 

6 teams competed, mixing Indian & foreign archers. 

The format included fast matches, mixed teams, and high tension. 

These show sports infrastructure and leagues are growing in India — both traditional and modern.

🏏 5. Domestic Cricket: Prithvi Shaw’s Bold Comeback

In India’s domestic scene:

Prithvi Shaw has sent a strong message to selectors by scoring 186 against his old team Mumbai in a warm-up match. 

His performance shows he still has fire and wants a spot back in national team selections. 

Also, India’s Women’s Senior T20 Trophy (2025–26) will be held from 8 Oct to 31 Oct with 37 teams. 

This tournament gives more opportunities for women cricketers across India.

👥 6. Indian Context: Stories that Connect

Let me share a story from Bhopal / Madhya Pradesh region:

In Bicharpur village, a small group of young footballers (and one female coach) are training in Germany under German coaching programs. 

They are learning advanced techniques, digital feedbacks, and modern training methods. They hope to bring those skills back to uplift sports in their home area.

This shows even in small towns, dreams can reach global levels if infrastructure and support are present.

Another example: In Bihar, building a stadium in Rajgir signals local youth might soon get exposure to big matches. 

These stories show that sports growth is not limited to cities — rural areas too are stepping up.
