Sachin Tendulkar Discloses The Names Of His Two Cricket Idols Since His Childhood

The legendary Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar is considered as one of the best batsmen of all times and even in the era of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, etc., he is still an inspiration for many aspiring cricketers. His contribution to the Indian cricket is immense and he has brought glory to the country for which he has been awarded with the highest civilian award of the nation, i.e., Bharat Ratna.

While Sachin is a hero to many people of the world, recently he revealed the names of those two cricketers who were his heroes. However in general, it was Sachin’s father whom he idolized the most and dreamed of becoming like him. The 47 years old former Indian cricketer was speaking in the virtual “Gift of Life” ceremony which was organized after Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Hospital carried out free heart surgeries on 1000 kids since the start of COVID-19 in the nation.

While addressing the kids, Sachin said that when he was of their age, he wanted to play for India.

He also revealed that he had two heroes, one is the former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar who played for the country for many years and the other is the West Indian legend Viv Richards.

Sunil Gavaskar was the first cricketer to cross the 10,000 runs in the longest format of the game.

Talking about his hero outside cricket, Sachin shared that his father Ramesh Tendulkar is his biggest inspiration and his hero for life. Sachin told that his father was a very calm and composed person and he always dreamed of becoming like him some day.

Sachin is all praise for the hospital management and says that by doing such a noble deed, they are not only saving the lives of kids but also giving them a chance to live a healthy and meaningful life in which they can dream to do something big and achieve something great.

We also appreciate Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Hospital for the noble work they have done!

British Professor Calls Idli World’s Most Boring Thing, Gets A Reply From Shashi Tharoor

The Indians are very particular about their food and they never tolerate anything against their favourite dishes. A British professor was slammed big time on the micro-blogging site Twitter after he called the south Indian food item idli one of the most boring things in the world. However, the reaction that got noticed the most was the one from the Indian politician and Congress MP Shashi Tharoor.

Representational Image

The British Professor Edward Anderson responds to a tweet made by Zomato India in which Zomata asked its followers to name a dish which they don’t understand why is famous.

Edward replies that he feels idli is one of the most boring things in the world.

The tweet was noticed by Shashi Tharoor’s son Ishaan Tharoor who wrote that he encountered the most offensive take on Twitter.

Soon, Shashi Tharoor also saw the tweet and he responded by calling Edward as a truly challenged person, asking to have some pity on this poor man.

Here is what Shashi Tharoor tweeted: “Yes, my son, there are some who are truly challenged in this world. Civilisation is hard to acquire: the taste & refinement to appreciate idlis, enjoy cricket, or watch ottamthullal is not given to every mortal. Take pity on this poor man, for he may never know what Life can be.”

Well, Edward was already pissed off with the slamming that he was getting from the south Indians and this is how he reacted after seeing Shashi Tharoor’s tweet:

Edward also makes it clear to everyone that he likes to have dosa, appam and almost all other South Indian food items other than idli.

He took a dig at Shashi Tharoor when he called him the world’s most famous idli evangelist and revealed that he asked his students to read Shashi Tharoor’s book Inglorious Empire.

Edward was not in the mood to stop here as he decided to have idli in lunch after making almost the complete south India angry but he again made it clear that his views on idli would remain same even after all what happened.

Well, we love idlis but don’t you think that a person has a right to express his views on food items and slamming him is not justifiable just because he doesn’t like something you love. What is your take on this matter? Let us know.

Girl Shares Amrish Puri’s Golden Banana Gun From “Ilaka” Movie, Twitter Goes Crazy

Bollywood is one of the biggest movie industries of the world and a true Bollywood fan will agree to the fact that Hindi movies and logic rarely go together. While there are some moviemakers who are very particular in regard to making a flick realistic and authenticity, some others have no problem in showing anything in name of creative liberty or masala entertainer. The era of 70s and 80s is filled with masala entertainers and there are so many instances from these movies which will make you laugh. In fact, you will even wonder as to how these movies were loved by audiences.

Recently, a Twitter user Aditi Sen shared a photo of a golden handgun which was embedded with colored gems and its handle resembles a half banana.

Take a look:

This revolver was used by the actor Amrish Puri in the movie “Ilaaka” in which he played the role of a villain. The film was released in 1989 and it also starred Mithun Chakraborty, Sanjay Dutt, Madhuri Dixit, Amrita Singh and others.

The caption that Aditi Sen used while sharing the gun’s pic read, “Amrish Puri’s revolver from Ilaka deserves its own movie. What a marvellous object.”

Soon the Indian Twitterati came into action and responded with hilarious reactions. While some loved the gun, few others named it as golden banana gun and several others called it a product of Jugaad. Check out some of the selected tweets:

Krunal Pandya’s Epic Expression During MIvsRR Lit Up Twitter With A Hilarious Meme Fest

Mumbai Indians is certainly playing like the champions as they are on the top of the points table with 8 points (4 wins, 2 losses). The last match that they played was against Rajasthan Royals and the player of the match was Suryakumar Yadav who played a spectacular innings of 79 runs not out for which he played only 47 balls.

However, the match will also be remembered for the expressions that Krunal Pandya gave when he was sent to bat. Krunal who scored 12 runs hasn’t got much chance to bat in the earlier matches and in yesterday’s match, he was sent up the order even before his brother Hardik Pandya to bat for MI.

But while batting, Krunal Pandya gave such expressions as if he was bored and this gave enough fodder to the meme artists. As a result, the micro-blogging site Twitter was flooded with jokes and hilarious reactions and here are some of the selected ones:

Talking about the match, MI won the toss and decided to bat. The most successful IPL team posted a huge total of 193 runs with the help of Suryakumar Yadav’s splendid innings who was well supported by the skipper Rohit Sharma (35). Rajasthan Royals batting lineup disappointed its fans big time as no batsman other than Jos Buttler (70) and Jofra Archer (24) was able to show resistance against the MI bowlers and the whole team got out for just 136 runs with 11 balls remaining to bowl.

This is the third straight loss of RR and they need to pull up their socks if they want to make their way in the play-offs. Presently, RR is on the seventh position with 4 points (2 wins, 3 losses) despite the fact that they started their tournament with a bang by defeating CSK in a high scoring match.

By the way, what do you think about the expression given by Krunal Pandya while batting? Truly a meme material, isn’t it?

Sachin Calls Virat Kohli’s Reaction A Million Dollar One After Almost Applying Saliva On Ball

The IPL 2020 is being played with a lot of precautions as the world is fighting against the coronavirus pandemic and recently Virat Kohli, the skipper of Royal Challengers Bangalore, almost committed a big mistake which was a violation of COVID-19 protocols.

In the match between RCB and DC, the DC batsman Prithvi Shaw played a shot towards the covers on the bowling of Navdeep Saini which was the third over of DC’s innings but Virat Kohli exhibited great athleticism and fielded the ball. However after that, he wasn’t able to control himself and cleaned the ball and was about to rub his saliva on it but then suddenly he realized that it’s prohibited, he removed his hand from the ball and made a gesture implying sorry.

Watch The Video:

The reaction of Virat Kohli was loved by many and one of them was the legendary former cricketer of India, Sachin Tendulkar. Little Master took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and called Virat’s reaction a million dollar one.

Here is what Sachin’s tweet read, “What an incredible shot by @PrithviShaw there! A million dollar reaction by @imVkohli after almost applying saliva on the ball. Sometimes instincts takeover! RCBvDC #IPL2020”

Usually, the cricketers are habitual of rubbing their saliva on the ball in order to make it shine but as per the new rules, use of saliva is banned because it may result in the spread of lethal coronavirus. In the present conditions, if Virat had rubbed saliva on the ball, he would have got a warning for sure and if such acts are repeated even after a warning to the team, it could have led to 5-run penalty.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has given the authority to the umpires to deal with such situation. Leniency is being observed as of now because it will certainly take time for the players to get habituated with the new rules.

We hope you are also following all the safety guidelines needed to keep you and your family safe!

Ricky Ponting’s Reaction After Ashwin Didn’t Mankad Aaron Finch Is Going Viral

Ravichandran Ashwin created a storm last time when he mankaded the Rajasthan Royals batsman Jos Buttler in an IPL match in 2019 and yesterday he surprised everyone by leaving Aaron Finch with just a warning rather than mankading him.

Ashwin is now a part of Delhi Capitals and yesterday in the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore when he was bowling, the RCB batsman Aaron Finch came out of the crease by a couple of yards. Ashwin had ample time to remove the bails but he chose to give Aaron Finch a warning only.

The cameraman was swift enough to shift his focus on the head coach of Delhi Capitals, Ricky Ponting who was found smiling on Ashwin’s act.

Here is how Ricky Ponting reacted:

Before the start of the IPL 2020, Ricky Ponting made it clear that he won’t allow his players to go for mankading and he will surely chat with Ashwin about this. They both also had an interaction in a YouTube video which was titled as Oru Mellisaana Kodu (Thin Line) and in the clip, R Ashwin asked Ponting to give his take on the matter as the former stated that he himself is a serial run-out at non-striker end person.

Ricky Ponting agreed to the fact that what Ashwin did was right since it was as per the laws but he was in favor of imposing a run penalty rather than getting the batsman run-out. Ponting said that if the batsman standing at non-striker end is leaving the crease even before the bowler throws the ball, he is indulging in an act of cheating and he should be punished.

What is your take on this matter? Do you feel that run-penalty is a better option than run-out or are you in favor of run-out? Let us know your views.

Ravichandran Ashwin, the Indian spinner who is a part of Delhi Capitals in the IPL 2020 is once again all over social media and this time for not mankading a batsman.

If you remember, Ashwin was the skipper of Kings XI Punjab in the IPL 2019 and in a match which was against Rajasthan Royals, he mankaded RR batsman Jos Buttler. A huge controversy erupted after this incident as many felt that he went against the spirit of the game while there were some who thought that whatever Ashwin did was correct. R Ashwin made it clear to everyone that he played within the laws of the game and he would do it again if he gets a chance in the future.

Before the start of the IPL 2020, Ashwin was traded to Delhi Capitals and now he is playing under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer. Just before the start of the tournament, the head coach of DC, Ricky Ponting made it clear that he would not allow his boys to do mankading and he would surely have a conversation with Ashwin about it.

Recently in the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Ashwin got the chance of mankading RCB batsman Aaron Finch but he chose to issue him a warning and leave rather than hitting the ball on the stumps.

Ashwin also took to Twitter and stated that it is the first and final warning and he won’t be leaving anyone after that.

Here is the tweet in which he also tagged Ricky Ponting:

Soon, the Indian Twitterati started expressing themselves in the form of memes and jokes and many felt that eventually Ashwin did what Ricky wanted. Check out some of the selected reactions:

Talking about the match, DC proved to be far better that RCB in the game. Batting first, the Delhi team posted a good total of 196 runs on the board with the help of a half-century of Marcus Stoinis. In reply, RCB was able to score only 137 runs for the loss of 9 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs and DC won the match by 59 runs.

Presently, DC is on the top of the table with 4 wins out of the 5 matches played by them and KXIP is at the bottom with 4 losses out of the 5 matches they have played.
