A small plane carrying pickleball players crashed into trees near Wimberley late Thursday night, killing all five people on board, officials said.The plane, a Cessna 421C, had departed from Amarillo and was headed to New Braunfels National Airport. The crash happened around 11 p.m. in Wimberley, about 40 miles southwest of Austin, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety. Photographs from the scene show the plane destroyed in a wooded area.“The pilot and four passengers on board were pronounced dead at the scene,” said Sgt. Billy Ray told reporters, as quoted by the AP.The names of the victims were not immediately released. The Amarillo Pickleball Club said the people on board the plane were members traveling to a tournament.The players were on their way to an event at the Cranky Pickle in New Braunfels. The tournament was canceled Friday, with organizers planning to honor the victims.Air traffic control audio indicated a concern shortly before the crash. A controller said, “He started moving erratically and now his track has disappeared from the scope. So we want to make sure everything is OK with him.”Federal agencies are leading the investigation into the crash.Dan Dyer, president of the Amarillo Pickleball Club, said he knew most of the victims and had played with them. “I’ve given them medals. They were outstanding players. They went out to win some games,” he said. “There are dozens of tournaments every weekend. Some people get the bug; others don’t. But once they get the bug, they will travel to a tournament.”Another plane traveling from Amarillo for the same event landed safely in New Braunfels. At least one pilot reported receiving a distress signal before the plane went down.Weather conditions in the area before the accident were mostly cloudy, with a thunderstorm later reported by the National Weather Service. Wimberly and New Braunfels are popular tourist destinations in the Texas Hill Country.

jason holder He had to wait for his chance at Gujarat Titans, but when the chance came, the West Indies all-rounder clearly reminded why the franchise had invested Rs 7 crore on him in the auction. Holder, who was brought into the eleven in place of Glenn Phillips, produced a decisive all-round performance in Gujarat’s four-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bangalore on Thursday.The 34-year-old took 2/29, took three catches, including a controversial one, and then contributed with the bat in a 30-run partnership with Rahul Tewatia as GT bowled out RCB for 155 and completed the chase with 25 balls to spare. Obviously, he was adjudged player of the match.For a Titans team that traded Sherfane Rutherford to Mumbai Indians in the off-season and was looking for a reliable middle-order option who could also bowl, Holder’s performance was timely validation. Vikram Solanki, GT’s director of cricket, said, “When we were pursuing Jason in the auction, it was in mind that he would be able to fulfill both the roles with bat and ball, so he offers us exactly that.” “If you look at the last calendar year and probably a little bit longer than that, his numbers at five and six have been quite excellent.“Obviously, Holder has all the abilities you need. Physically, he is a strong guy, he has great reach and impact as far as the bat is concerned, so all the technical stuff is covered. He is now bringing an extra dimension, a sprinkling of stardust if you like, of being a really experienced campaigner. I think that is what is going on,” Solanki said.Holder’s influence was not limited to his wickets. His catch to dismiss Patidar ended a 44-run partnership and he later gave a good chance to send back Tim David and Krunal Pandya. With the bat, he helped the chase along with Tewatia.Solanki said Holder’s growing understanding of his game, built through years of international and franchise cricket, has made him a valuable presence in pressure situations. “He has proved over the years in international cricket and franchise cricket what a balanced player he is. He is constantly getting better,” Solanki said. “Any player who has played around the world for a long time, led teams, and been a part of different teams, starts to understand what needs to be done in any given situation. Jason is definitely doing that.Holder has played 96 T20 matches for the West Indies and has captained the national team in all formats. Solanki said that the young GT players are also benefiting from the experience. Solanki said, “You often get people who have a lot of experience who maybe can’t even articulate it. Jason will always be willing to have a conversation, whether it’s with the coaching group or with the young people around him, to impart a little bit of his experience.”“

New Delhi: Exiting the match after being fined 25% of his match fee and given one demerit point for violating Level 1 of the IPL code of conduct for using a vape inside the dressing room. Riyan Parag Made sure to leave the controversy behind when he came out to bat against Delhi Capitals. Rajasthan Royals The captain looked in great form and scored a brilliant half-century. It looked like he deserved a century but missed it, scoring a brilliant 90 off 50 balls with eight fours and five sixes, taking his team to 225/6 in 20 overs.However, despite the strong score, Delhi Capitals snapped their three-match losing streak with an impressive seven-wicket win.After the match, Parag made it clear that external criticism does not matter to him, rather his primary responsibility is to bring results for the team.“I don’t think I need to respond to any critic or anyone who talks about it. But at the end of the day, my job is to get two points. So if we lose the game my score and my innings don’t really matter,” Parag said after the match.A blistering 110-run opening stand between KL Rahul (75 off 40) and Pathum Nissanka (62 off 33) laid the right foundation for the record 226-run target, which Tristan Stubbs (18*) and Ashutosh Sharma (25*) calmly finished off with five balls to spare.Parag said, “I think it was a good score. I thought 200 was a par score here. It was going to be a bit slow, but I think we could have bowled better in the middle overs, not letting them go a bit too far. And then too many boundaries in the same over and that was repeated again and again. So I thought we missed it, but there is no harm in the decision we took.”Parag was earlier fined 25% of his match fee and given one demerit point after he was caught vaping inside the dressing room during his team’s match against Punjab Kings.He admitted the offense and accepted the penalty imposed by match referee Amit Sharma.Parag was found to have violated Article 2.21 of the IPL code of conduct, which deals with “conduct that brings the game into disrepute”. The incident occurred during the second innings when he was seen using a vape inside the dressing room.

A 12-year-old boy born to a Nigerian mother and a US military serviceman is facing deportation to the US as authorities question his citizenship.The case unfolding in Alaska has drawn attention as US immigration officials are seeking DNA testing to confirm the boy’s link to his father, a naturalized US citizen who previously served in the military. The boy’s lawyer said his father has refused to take the test.The child lives in Anchorage and could be deported along with his mother. The US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has asked for genetic proof of paternity.“The kid can’t prove he’s a citizen, and right now, the government is trying to deport him,” Margaret Stock, an attorney at Cascadia Cross Border Law Group in Anchorage, Alaska, told Newsweek.He said: “He’s not in custody yet. They haven’t come and caught him and put him in a detention center, but they have put him in deportation proceedings. So, it’s really important for him to prove his citizenship to stop them from deporting him.”According to the legal team, the boy was born in Türkiye to his Nigerian mother, while his father Bolanle Meshach Akinleye served in the US Army. Later the family went to America on visitor visa.The lawyer said authorities are continuing deportation proceedings despite having solid evidence, including photographs, videos of birthday celebrations and other personal records showing the father-son relationship.Additionally, a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson said that the boy and his mother were in the country illegally and did not have proven citizenship claims.The spokesperson also suggested voluntary self-deportation options, saying, “Parents can take control of their departure with the CBP Home app and preserve the opportunity to return the right legal way. The United States is now offering illegal aliens $2,600 and a free flight for self-deportation. We encourage everyone here illegally to take advantage of this offer and secure the opportunity to return to the United States the right legal way to live the American dream. If not, you will be arrested and deported without a chance to return.”The case comes as the US Supreme Court is reviewing challenges to birthright citizenship and a 2025 executive order aimed at limiting it. If the court upholds the strict rules, there could be more such cases where people may be required to take a DNA test to prove citizenship.The lawyer said: “So, if Trump is successful in the US Supreme Court in overturning the 14th Amendment, we will see many more cases like this. In fact, we will see hundreds of thousands of cases like this.”A court hearing in the boy’s case is scheduled for January 2027, while his mother’s asylum application is pending
