In Sivakasi, eight-year-old Tamizh Amudhan turned an ordinary blackout into an unforgettable night. Sitting on the floor of his home in Thiruthangal, with a candle flickering beside him and a laptop balanced on a pillow, he logged into an online blitz game and defeated Vincent Keymer, the World No. 7. A thunderstorm had cut the power, so he relied on his mother’s phone hotspot of 1 GB data and a half-charged laptop, calmly playing on as the battery drained.

His father had suggested skipping the tournament, unsure if the setup would last, but Tamizh wouldn’t give in. The candle wasn’t just for light; it helped keep his face visible for Chess.com’s fair-play rules. He only managed four games before the laptop died.

Ngidi fell on his neck and head while attempting a catch at mid-off during the clash between Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings. He was treated on the field, but concern over the severity of the injury quickly escalated. At 6:16 pm, an ambulance left the stadium. By 6:27 pm, it had reached the hospital, covering roughly 10 km at peak hour in less than half the usual time.

At the centre of the operation was ACP Sanjay Singh, an ex-cricketer who has shared the field with Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli.

The sequence moved fast, but not by chance.The moment ACP Singh, who was posted at the stadium, saw the seriousness of the fall, he took the call to trigger a green corridor, a rare emergency route in which traffic lights are manually synchronised to allow uninterrupted passage.

It took close to 60 officers to execute the movement successfully.
