One rainy Saturday reshaped the Premier League season. Nicolas Jackson's double ended Manchester City's perfect start at the ground that has haunted them for four years, Arsenal did an efficient job on Everton without Bukayo Saka, and at Stamford Bridge a 21-year-old goalkeeper's howler and Cole Palmer's first-ever red card handed Tottenham a win for only the second time in 42 visits.
Kimi Antonelli blew Max Verstappen off the line in Austin and never looked back. His ninth win of the season means that unless George Russell or Lewis Hamilton win in Mexico City, the 20-year-old is world champion — the youngest in Formula 1 history, and Italy's first since Alberto Ascari in 1953.
Ninety minutes after the polls closed, Aleksandar Vucic did something he has never done in 12 years at the top of Serbian politics: he stood before his own supporters and read out the numbers of his defeat. The student movement born from a collapsed train-station canopy had beaten the strongman at the ballot box.
At 80, written off after losing the first round, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has done something no Brazilian candidate has managed since democracy returned in 1989: lost the opening vote and won the runoff anyway. The electoral court declared him the winner, 51.76% to 48.24%, on a chaotic election day extended by two hours — and Flávio Bolsonaro's response was to reject the result entirely and promise to ask the courts to annul the election.
The launch numbers were spectacular: 2.8 trillion parameters, a million-token memory, prices cut by a third. But within two days, the people paying for Moonshot AI's Kimi K3.1 Pro were watching their quotas drain on tasks they never asked for and hitting rate limits on the ones they did. On Monday the company said sorry in unusually plain language — and gave everyone a week of usage back.
The milestone was hiding inside a rescue act. Chasing 181 in Christchurch, India were 70 for five and sinking — until Tilak Varma and Nitish Kumar Reddy dragged them home with one ball left. That win was India's 200th outright victory in T20 internationals, something no team had ever done, and it opened a 24-win gap on Pakistan, who got to 300 matches first but are converting far fewer of them into wins.
Gold is supposed to rise when the world gets dangerous. Instead, with Brent crude at a six-month high near $115 a barrel, bullion has fallen nearly 4% in a week to a three-month low — because expensive oil means stubborn inflation, and stubborn inflation means the US Federal Reserve keeps interest rates high. Here is what happened to gold and silver prices, in India and the world, and the meeting this week that decides where they go next.
The biggest Indian film of the season is still nine days from release, and it has already crossed Rs 20 crore in worldwide pre-sales on roughly 2.25 lakh tickets. North America's paid previews alone have crossed $550,000, and premium Mumbai recliners for opening shows are listed above Rs 3,000. Here is the advance-booking picture — with the caveat that India's box-office trackers are not all counting the same seats.
The broadcaster had already flashed "England win by 20 runs". The handshakes were done. And then the third umpire found a small spike on UltraEdge: Shadab Khan, given out LBW on 97 with Pakistan nine down, had got an inside edge. The reprieve produced an unbeaten 113 — the highest score by a No. 8 in ODI history — and an 89-run last-wicket stand that broke a record older than the World Cup itself.
The Bay of Bengal system we tracked as a deep depression is now Cyclone Arnab — the first cyclone to form in the Bay in 2026. IMD's Monday bulletins fix its landfall window: the forenoon of October 28, between Bapatla and Visakhapatnam, at up to 140 kmph gusts. Here is what has changed since yesterday, what is confirmed, and how Andhra Pradesh and Odisha are preparing.
