India sees over 226 pc surge in startup funding at $596 mn this week
The Indian startup ecosystem bounced back this week in terms of raising funds, clocking more than 226 per cent surge with securing around $596 million in total.
The World number one, India overwhelmed Afghanistan in the inaugural Test match on Friday as they thrashed the visitors by an innings and 262 runs at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, Karnataka.
However, more than the match, host India’s sporting gesture towards Afghanistan’s team became the talk of the town. On Friday, Indian skipper Ajinkya Rahane in an amazing show of sportsmanship invited the visitors to pose with them with the trophy at the end of the match.
After team India’s sweet gesture towards the young Afghan team, social media was all praise for the “beautiful” gesture.
