'No Deal With Iran Except Unconditional Surrender': Trump

US President Donald Trump on Friday demanded Iran's "unconditional surrender" as the only acceptable outcome to end hostilities, while promising to help rebuild the country's economy if Tehran complied and installed new leadership.

"There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.

The post came as Israel bombarded regime targets in Tehran and Hezbollah positions in Beirut, and Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth said US strikes against Iran were "about to surge dramatically."

Trump said that following any capitulation by the Islamic Republic, the United States and its allies would work to bring Iran "back from the brink of destruction, making it economically bigger, better, and stronger than ever before."

This would be contingent on the installation of what he called "a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s)."

He closed with a new slogan — "MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN (MIGA!)" — a riff on his "Make America Great Again" political brand.

Arjun Tendulkar Plays Match One Day After Wedding Celebrations, Stuns Internet

Arjun Tendulkar, son of legendary India batter Sachin Tendulkar, was back in action just one day after his wedding celebrations. The all-rounder, who was picked by Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL 2026 auction, took part in the DY Patil T20 Cup semifinal match on Friday. He played for DY Patil Blue in the encounter against Mumbai Customs but his match ended up losing the game by five wickets. Arjun had a disappointing outing as well as he made just 9 runs in 14 balls and conceded 20 runs in the only over that he bowled. Arjun also played on the day before his wedding with Saaniya Chandhok during his team's last league stage match against Canara Bank.

The dedication level of Arjun Tendulkar:

5th March - He got married to Saaniya Chandhok in Mumbai.

6th March Today - He has played Semi-final for DY Patil Blue vs Mumbai Customs.

People often troll Arjun Tendulkar and say he gets chances only because of his father's name.… pic.twitter.com/xYWB6en7q9

Meanwhile, Sachin Tendulkar expressed heartfelt gratitude to fans, friends, and well-wishers for their love and blessings following the wedding of his son Arjun Tendulkar with Saaniya Chandhok.

Tendulkar thanked everyone who extended their wishes to the couple and the family during the wedding celebrations held in the city, through a post on social media.

“As Arjun and Saaniya begin this new chapter together, we feel incredibly grateful for the love and blessings pouring in from everyone. Your presence, messages, and heartfelt wishes have made this wedding a truly unforgettable occasion for the family and, most importantly, for the couple. Thank you very much,” Tendulkar wrote in a post on X.

Arjun and Saaniya tied the knot on Thursday in an intimate yet star-studded ceremony. The wedding celebrations were attended by several prominent figures from the cricket fraternity as well as close friends and family members.

The couple had earlier announced their engagement in August 2025 in a private ceremony attended by their close circle.

In the days leading up to the wedding, several traditional pre-wedding functions such as mehendi and sangeet ceremonies were organised, bringing together many well-known personalities from the cricketing world.

Saaniya comes from a well-known business family and is the granddaughter of industrialist Ravi Ghai, chairman of the Graviss Group. She has also been closely associated with the Tendulkar family for years and reportedly shares a strong bond with Arjun's sister Sara.

Arjun, meanwhile, continues to build his cricketing career on the domestic circuit and currently represents the Goa cricket team. After previously being part of the Mumbai Indians, the left-arm all-rounder has been traded to the Lucknow Super Giants ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 season.

Mohammad Amir Predicts India's Defeat Against England. Gives Big Reason

Former Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir did not hesitate to make another bold prediction about India's T20 World Cup campaign, despite seeing his earlier semi-final calls fall flat. Amir, who had backed West Indies to beat India in the Super 8 match, has now given England the upper hand against Suryakumar Yadav's men in the semi-final on Thursday. Sharing his analysis of India's performances so far, Amir feels the team has not been able to deliver as a unit. Hence, he believes England are likely to get the better of them in the semi-final.

The two teams will face off at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, a venue expected to produce a high-scoring contest. Amir feels England will have a greater chance of winning if they bat second.

"It's a match on a good wicket. Like Rashid Bhai said, if England bat second, there will be more chances. Because it's a high-scoring game in Mumbai," the former Pakistan pacer said on the Haarna Mana Hai show.

Mohammad Amir said, "India are relying on just one or two players. Most of their batting is out of form. Right now, only a one or two players are carrying the team. When you depend on one or two players, you can't dominate, that's why England are favourites against India." pic.twitter.com/obJEjPWYAq

With the likes of Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson performing only in isolated instances, Amir does not feel the Indian team is ready to sail into the final yet. The form of Abhishek Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav is also a concern for the veteran left-arm pacer.

"But if you talk about India, only one or two of their batters are performing. That batter often takes it all the way, but only one or two are able to perform. If you look at their overall batting, it is not in form.

"Ishan Kishan only performed against us. Abhishek Sharma is out of form. Tilak Verma did not make an impact. Suryakumar Yadav has done nothing since he came into the Super 8s. Sanju has done it. Bumrah is doing it," he said.

"You cannot be sure that this team will dominate. I think England will be the favourites," Amir concluded.

Pakistan Down To 28 Days Of Fuel, Eyes WFH, Online Classes Amid Hormuz Crisis

Pakistan is planning to consider Covid-era measures to reduce fuel consumption such as mandatory work-from-home and online classes as it faces a severe energy crisis because of the Strait of Hormuz closure. 

The Revolutionary Guards said it had already made clear, in line with international law and relevant resolutions, that the Islamic Republic of Iran reserves the right to regulate passage through the Strait of Hormuz during wartime.

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has stated that the Strait of Hormuz is closed exclusively to vessels from the United States, Israel, Europe and their Western allies.

Currently, Pakistan has petrol and diesel stocks for only about 28 days, crude oil reserves for 10 days and LPG supplies for 15 days, according to its Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb.

According to a report by Pakistani newspaper Dawn, the Shehbaz Sharif government is set to take several measures to counter the issue, such as a weekly revision of petrol pricing, compensating oil companies for elevated costs of insurance and import premiums and fuel conservation measures.

The government may encourage corporates to adopt two days of remote working every week and that only essential staff be present in offices this month. Moreover, there are proposals to urge employees to share rides. There could also be a possibility of making educational institutions turn to online sessions.

The strait has been closed practically since the United States and Israel began their joint military operation against Iran on Saturday. The strategic waterway carries roughly one-fifth of all oil transported by sea worldwide, making it a cornerstone of global energy supplies.

On Tuesday, Pakistan's Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar had said that he 'made Iran understand' that the defence agreement with Saudi Arabia could draw them into the war too. However, Pakistan cannot afford a war when it is already engaged in another conflict with Afghanistan and especially when its economy is in shambles.

The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow channel located between Iran and Oman that links the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Sea. Spanning roughly 55 kilometres at its narrowest point, it is regarded as one of the most vital and heavily used maritime routes globally, particularly for the energy trade.
