Gujarat Titans (GT) released South African fast bowler Gerald Coetzee from their squad ahead of the IPL 2026 auction. Apart from the Proteas pacer, the 2022 winners also released Mahipal Lomror, Karim Janat, Dasun Shanaka, and Kulwant Khejroliya, while Sherfane Rutherford was traded to Mumbai Indians (MI). Coetzee played only four matches for GT in IPL 2025. The right-arm pacer claimed two wickets at a strike rate of 36. In his overall IPL career, the 25-year-old has featured in 14 matches and has claimed 15 wickets at an average of 31. 46, with the aid of one four-fer. The South Africa pace bowler was purchased by the Gujarat franchise at the IPL 2025 mega auction for ₹2. 40 crore. In this feature, we look at three teams that can target Coetzee at the IPL 2026 mini-auction. #1 Delhi Capitals Delhi Capitals (DC) have retained pacers Mitchell Starc, Dushmantha Chameera and T Natarajan ahead of the IPL 2026 auction. Starc came up with some fantastic performances in the 2025 edition. However, Natarajan looked completely out of rhythm in the few deliveries that he bowled. Chameera too was expensive, going at over 11 runs per over. DC were heavily dependent on Starc to deliver the good in the bowling department. They ended up paying the price for some rather poor bowling efforts during the competition. Thus, despite starting the season with four wins, the Delhi franchise failed to reach the playoffs. DC can look at Coetzee as a potential bowling partner for Starc. The Proteas cricketer is also a handy lower order batter and could provide support to someone like Ashutosh Sharma in the end overs. Delhi have a purse of ₹21. 80 crore and five overseas slots remaining for the IPL 2026 auction. They have good enough reasons to target Coetzee. #2 Chennai Super Kings Five-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK), somewhat surprisingly, released Sri Lanka fast bowler Matheesha Pathirana ahead of the IPL 2026 auction. The right-arm pacer did have an underwhelming IPL 2025 season, claiming 13 wickets in 12 matches at an economy rate of over 10. Many experts and fans, though, expected CSK to back him, given his game-changing ability. Chennai do have the likes of Khaleel Ahmed, Anshul Kamboj, Mukesh Choudhary as well as all-rounder Jamie Overton as pace bowling options for the next season. However, they would want a frontline overseas fast bowler in the squad in case they are unable (or don’t want to) to buy back Pathirana at the IPL 2026 mini-auction next month. Coetzee could be among the overseas bowlers on their list. He has come up with some impressive performances with the ball for South Africa and has won them matches with the bat as well. He has the potential to be groomed by CSK into a match-winner. CSK have a huge purse of ₹43. 40 crore and four overseas slots left for the auction. Coetzee can fit into their squad as an overseas buy. #3 Royal Challengers Bengaluru On expected lines, defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) have retained the core of their IPL 2025 squad. If we look at their fast bowling options for the upcoming season, they have proven performers while Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Left-arm pacer Yash Dayal too has done well for the franchise in the last couple of seasons. RCB, however, released South African fast bowler Lungi Ngidi ahead of the IPL 2026 auction. They could look at Ngidi’s Proteas teammate as a replacement. Bengaluru need a backup overseas pacer considering that their No. 1 match-winner with the ball, Hazlewood, is also prone to injuries and fitness issues. Coetzee is a feisty character and can fit well into the RCB camp. Following retentions and releases, Bengaluru have a limited purse of ₹16. 40 crore for the IPL 2026 auction, and two overseas slots lot. They can look to target South Africa’s Coetzee as a potential cover for Hazlewood in case the latter gets injured again.

Ubisoft will announce its H1 2025-26 earnings results on Friday
The Ubisoft company will officially announce earnings results for the first half of its 2025-26 fiscal year on Friday, November 21. This follows a delay of their release, as well as a halt of trading last week. With the scheduling of this release, many eyes will be on Ubisoft in expectation of a possible major announcement this coming weekend. Ubisoft announced the new schedule for its H1 2025-26 earnings results in a press release from its investor relations website. According to the company, it will announce its earnings figures “no later than before the opening of trading on Friday, 21st November 2025.” Ubisoft alarmed many when it suddenly halted trading on shares and bonds in France in addition to delaying the release of its H1 2025-26 earnings results. Considering Ubisoft share trade is still currently halted, Ubisoft share trading will also resume on Friday, November 21, 2025. However, these sudden halts and delays left many curious as to what is about to happen with Ubisoft from a business standpoint. The company had some success with Assassin’s Creed Shadows earlier this year, but Ubisoft has done little to light up the gaming scene outside of that with several underwhelming launches and high-profile projects either delayed or canceled.

Overrated places in Tyrol, Austria you must skip
**Overrated Places in Tyrol, Austria You Must Skip**
*By Anujj Trehaan | Oct 13, 2025, 01:08 PM*
Tyrol, a picturesque region in Austria, is renowned for its stunning landscapes and rich cultural heritage. However, not all places in Tyrol live up to the hype. Some tourist spots tend to be overcrowded or overpriced, often leaving visitors disappointed.
In this article, we explore some of the most overrated places in Tyrol that you might want to skip on your next trip.
### 1. Innsbruck’s Golden Roof
Innsbruck’s Golden Roof is undoubtedly one of Tyrol’s most famous landmarks. The roof is adorned with 2,657 fire-gilded copper tiles and holds historical significance. However, many tourists find it underwhelming in person due to its small size and the overwhelming crowds.
Instead of spending too much time here, consider exploring other parts of Innsbruck that offer more engaging and authentic experiences.
### 2. Swarovski Crystal Worlds
Swarovski Crystal Worlds promises a magical experience with its crystal art installations and beautiful gardens. Despite this, some visitors feel it falls short of expectations. The entrance fee can be steep compared to what is essentially a brief visit with limited activities beyond viewing the exhibits.
If you’re not a crystal or art enthusiast, you might find greater enjoyment exploring Tyrol’s natural attractions instead.
### 3. Zillertal Alps High Road
The Zillertal Alps High Road offers breathtaking panoramic views that attract many travelers. However, during peak tourist seasons, heavy traffic and congestion can detract from the experience.
If you seek tranquility and solitude surrounded by nature, consider visiting lesser-known mountain passes. These alternative routes provide similar stunning vistas without the crowd and hustle.
### 4. Stubai Glacier Ski Resort
Stubai Glacier Ski Resort is Europe’s largest glacier ski resort and offers year-round skiing opportunities. Nonetheless, it can get crowded during busy seasons, making the slopes hectic.
If skiing or snowboarding isn’t your primary interest, explore some of Tyrol’s charming alpine villages instead. These villages offer peaceful alpine scenery perfect for relaxation and exploration—without the rush of tourists on the slopes.

While Tyrol boasts many incredible destinations, being selective about where you go can make your trip much more enjoyable. Skip these overrated spots and discover the authentic charm and serenity that Tyrol truly has to offer.
