The Indian government imposed lockdown in order to combat the coronavirus pandemic and despite the fact that the lockdown was done for the safety of citizens, it also resulted in problems for many persons. The people who suffered the most were from the poor sections of the society, especially the laborers who were working far from their home towns.
The governments may have been claiming to take proper care of these laborers but we have seen many of them walking on foot with their families trying to reach their home town. Indeed it is a heart-wrenching site to see people of our nation suffer in this manner and when Bollywood actor Sonu Sood was not able to bear it anymore, he decided to send these laborers home by providing them transportation.
Earlier, Sonu Sood came out to help the corona warriors as he allowed them to take rest in his hotel as the doctors and medical staff can’t go to their homes because there is risk of their family members getting infected.
The actor may have portrayed the roles of villain in the movies but by sending huge number of people to their homes, he has proved himself a real-life hero and we are sure that he will be worshipped by many of those whom he has helped.
People who were facing problems in returning to their homes were contacting Sonu Sood on the micro-blogging site Twitter and the “Dabangg” actor was replying them in positive manner. There are many creative meme makers on the virtual world and they tried to appreciate and pay respect to Sonu by making memes on him.
Sonu himself shared some memes including the one in which Alia Bhatt is seen crying; it is a scene from the movie “Raazi” while in another meme, Sonu is compared to Bajrangi Bhaijaan and called Sonu Bhaijaan.

The skipper of the Indian cricket team, Virat Kohli is one of the best batsmen of the cricket world and many former cricketers and his fans believe that he is the greatest of all times (GOAT). However, he often gets slammed or criticised for his aggressive nature on the field but still he has pretty good relations with other cricketers.
Virat Kohli has become very active on social media during the lockdown and he is not only indulging in Instagram live chat sessions with other players but also making videos for spreading smiles on the faces of his fans. Remember the one in which he walked like a dinosaur which went viral for all the hilarious reasons and sparked a meme fest on the micro-blogging site Twitter?
Recently, Virat Kohli who is also the skipper of the IPL team Royal Challengers Bangalore posted a photo of himself with the New Zealand cricket team captain Kane Williamson.
Both the cricketers have good relations and they respect each other a lot. In the pic, they can be seen walking together as they were going for the toss.
The caption that Virat wrote was, “Love our chats. Good man”.
Here is Virat Kohli’s Instagram post:
The Kiwi skipper who has also become quite active on social media was quick to respond and he reciprocated the emotions along with an attempt to find who is taller between the two.
Kane Williamson wrote, “Same here bro, looking forward to the next one! … also trying to work out who is taller?”
On the New Zealand tour, the Indian team whitewashed the 5-match T20I series but lost the 3-match ODI series by 3-0 and 2 test matches by 2-0. At that time also, Kohli was slammed for his aggressive behaviour but few Kiwi players supported Virat, saying that he is just a passionate player and nothing should be blown out of proportion.
Looking forward to see these cricketers on the field soon! Till then, stay at home and maintain social distancing to stay safe!

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 has been postponed indefinitely by the Board of Control for Cricket In India (BCCI) just like the other sporting events because of the coronavirus pandemic. The tournament was slated to start on March 29 but then it was postponed till April 15 as the Indian government imposed lockdown in the country.
However, the board decided to postpone the league for an indefinite period after the Indian government announced the extension of lockdown till May 1. In fact, the chances of the IPL 2020 taking place this year is quite low as the T20 ICC World Cup 2020 is also scheduled later this year.
However, there were reports that the T20 ICC World Cup can also be postponed and an official announcement can be made in this regard by the International Cricket Council (ICC) by the next week. It was also said that BCCI may try to organize the IPL in the month of October-November after the T20 ICC World Cup gets postponed. But now Arun Dhumal, the treasurer of BCCI, has made it clear that the board will think of organizing the IPL only if there is a slot available.
The statement by Arun Dhumal holds importance considering the fact that the Australian media is alleging that BCCI will try to pressurize ICC so that the T20 ICC World Cup is pushed further and it can get the slot for the IPL. However, Arun Dhumal has stated that BCCI is no mood to suggest the postponement of the T20 ICC World Cup; they will discuss everything in the meeting and the final call will be made by ICC.
In fact, Arun Dhumal has thrown the ball in Cricket Australia’s court stating that a lot depends on the board and government of Australia whether they are fine with so many teams coming and playing in their country and are ready to organize such a big tournament within the closed doors. The BCCI treasurer said that it is now upon Cricket Australia to take a call.
But there is no denying the fact that if the IPL doesn’t take place this year, the Indian board is going to suffer a loss of around Rs. 4,000 crore.
