Mohammad Kaif Hits Out At The BCCI Selectors For Not Including Ravi Ashwin In T20I Squad

The Board for Control of Cricket in India (BCCI) lately announced the Indian squad for the Australian tour during the IPL 2020. While some called it a balanced squad, several others pointed fingers at the selection or omission of few players.

Now the former Indian cricketer Mohammed Kaif has taken a subtle dig at the BCCI for not including the Indian spinner Ravichandran Ashwin in the team for shorter formats. R Ashwin is a part of the Indian test team but he last played for the country in the shorter format in 2017 against West Indies. After that, he was dropped from the team along with Ravindra Jadeja and since then, Ashwin has not been able to make a comeback in India’s ODI and T20 squad.

In the IPL 2020, Ashwin played for Delhi Capitals and performed in a pretty good manner for his team. Mohammed Kaif who has been employed as an assistant coach by the Delhi franchise took to the micro-blogging site Twitter and asked the BCCI to read and re-read the names of the big cricketers who were dismissed by Ashwin in the thirteenth season of the IPL which included the likes of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Chris Gayle, David Warner, Jos Buttler, Steve Smith, etc. Kaif also added that he feels Ashwin can be a great asset for India in the shorter format.

This is what Kaif tweeted, “Virat, Rohit, Pollard, Gayle, Warner, QDK, Karun, Buttler, Smith, Paddikal, Pooran. Read and re-read @ashwinravi99’s list of big scalps from IPL 13, mostly in power plays. Feel Ash can still be a valuable asset for India in T20Is.”

One of the reasons of Ashwin’s exclusion from the T20 and ODI squad is the good performance of young spinners, such as Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav. The Kulcha duo has emerged to be a dependable pair when it comes to trouble and dismiss even the in-form batsmen.

The Indian team will be playing 3 ODIs and the same number of T20Is against Australia along with four test matches but the Indian skipper Virat Kohli will play only the first test match as he will return for the birth of his first baby.

Do you think that Ravichandran Ashwin should get a comeback chance?

Cricketers & Twitter Have Hilarious Reactions Over Big Bash League’s New Rules

Cricket is undoubtedly one of the most popular sports of the world but the tournament organizers keep on adding some new features in order to make the game more interesting and thrilling for public and the players as well. Australia’s premier T20 tournament Big Bash League is going to start from December 10 and the organizers have came up with 3 new rules namely – Power Surge, X-Factor and Bash Boost.

Let us tell you about the new rules:

Power Surge:

Earlier there used to be traditional six over power play but this time, there will be a four over power play in the start of the innings and the teams can choose to have two over power play anytime in their innings after the 10th over. During the power play, the bowling side will be allowed to have only 2 players outside the inner ring of the field.

X-Factor:

The Super Sub is going to make a comeback in the game but this time with a twist. The teams will get a chance to sub one of their players from the playing XI but after half the innings get over. However, there is one more condition; the teams will be able to replace only that player who has not batted or who has not bowled more than one over.

Bash Boost:

There is a change in point system as well. Earlier the winning team used to get 2 points but from this season, the winning team will get three points. The teams will be able to get one more point if they perform better at the halfway mark in comparison to the other team. However if both the teams are on the same level at the halfway mark, both the teams will get 0.5 point each.

Cricket lovers and even people from the cricket fraternity are not impressed with the new rules and have started making fun of them. While some feel that these rules are ridiculous, several others have suggested opting for online voting in case of a run-out. Here are some selected reactions:

Indian Twitterati Has Funniest Take On COVID Vaccines That Are 90-95% Effective, “5% Kahan Hai?”

The coronavirus pandemic has affected our lives in a pretty adverse manner as more than 1.34 million people have lost their lives worldwide. Even the developed nations have crumbled in front of the pandemic as their economies got hit badly. The schools, colleges, shopping complexes, businesses, etc. were closed down in the month of March in order to save people by reducing the spread of lethal coronavirus. However, it is also true that we can’t live in this situation forever and the governments of various countries started unlocking their country in a slow manner.

The Indian government also imposed lockdown in the month of March but now the country is in the unlock phase and the bad news is that there is a surge in the number of coronavirus positive cases in some states. The reason behind this increase is that people have not been following the safety measures in a proper manner and they were in no mood to stay at home during the festive season.

There is no denying the fact that the most effective way to counter COVID-19 will be the much-awaited vaccine. Many countries and institutions are working hard to develop the vaccine; in fact, Russia was the first country to launch the vaccine for COVID-19. Moderna, the Massachusetts based organization, will also start the phase 2 of human trials as they have got positive results in the phase 1.

But what has amused the Indian twitterati is the fact that none of the vaccine developed till now is 100 percent effective. The Russian vaccine is said to be 92% effective, while the vaccine which is getting developed by various other firms such as Pfizer-BioNTech are also over 90 percent effective and now Moderna has announced that their vaccine is 94.5 % effective.

After this announcement, social media networks are flooded with memes and jokes as some suggest that Delhi University won’t be accepting it as their cut-off is 99 percent while several others say that the Indian parents will straight away ask about the remaining 5 percent and will scold for wasting time on mobile.

These rib-tickling tweets will make you go ROFL:

Let’s hope that the world gets a 100 percent effective vaccine for COVID-19 as soon as possible! Till then, stay home stay safe!

Suryakumar Yadav Posts An Adorable Comment On Virat Kohli’s Post After Facing Backlash

Mumbai Indians lifted the IPL trophy for the fifth time by defeating the first time finalists Delhi Capitals in the finals of the IPL 2020 and once again MI batsman Suryakumar Yadav performed in an exemplary manner throughout the tournament. Suryakumar who plays for Mumbai in the domestic cricket scored 480 runs in 16 matches for his team including four fifties in the tournament and majority of the cricket lovers were quite sure that he will certainly get a berth in the Indian team for the Australian tour. But the selectors didn’t include him in the squad which made many people unhappy and some of them alleged that the selectors are pretty harsh on the talented batsman. Suryakumar Yadav was also disappointed as he has been waiting for the national call for a long time now.

In a contest between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore, SKY got involved in a verbal duel with the RCB skipper Virat Kohli and many felt that this incident happened because Suryakumar was angry with Virat Kohli and the selectors for not selecting him. Though Suryakumar Yadav praised Virat Kohli many times earlier, in fact once he had called him “God” too, recently he did something which infuriated cricket fans, especially the followers of Virat Kohli.

Just like other cricketers, Suryakumar Yadav is also active on social media networks and recently he liked a tweet which trolled Virat Kohli and the selectors. The controversial meme is made from a scene of a Tamil movie entitled “Master” and it showed Rohit Sharma fighting the selectors, Virat Kohli and haters. Suryakumar soon realized that he made a mistake by liking the tweet and he unliked it but many people had seen it by then and some also saved the screenshots.

Suryakumar Yadav was trolled left and right by fans of the Indian skipper and now the MI batsman has tried to do damage control by commenting on the tweet made by Virat Kohli.

Virat posted a video from his practice sessions in Australia with the caption, “Love test cricket practice sessions” with two heart emojis.

On this, Suryakumar Yadav commented, “Energy Sound can’t wait to watch Domination #theBrand” with fire emojis in between the words.

The Indian team will be playing three ODIs and the same number of T20Is in Australia along with four test matches. However, Virat Kohli will be a part of the Indian squad for the first test match only as he will return India after that on the paternity leave.

Taapsee Pannu Reveals Her Struggles & Tough Bollywood Journey, “Hero’s Wife Got Me Replaced”

Undoubtedly, there is no short cut to success and hard work, determination and dedication are absolutely needed if a person wants to become successful. The Bollywood actress Taapsee Pannu is one of the best examples of the same as she has made her name in the industry by giving some really powerful performances. What makes her achievement noteworthy and remarkable is the fact that she has attained the whole lot without any godfather in B-Town.

While Taapsee has entertained fans with her acting in masala movies such as “Judwaa 2”, “Chashme Baddoor”, etc., she has left an impressive impact with intense performances in “Badla”, “Thappad”, “Saand ki Aankh” and more. However, the journey of the “Pink” actress hasn’t been easy. In fact, she has accepted herself that there was a time when she was considered a bad luck charm and no moviemaker wanted to work with her.

Recently while talking to a leading daily, the actress talked about the hurdles which she faced and also about the hate, negativity and prejudice against women that she dealt with. Taapsee revealed that once she was replaced just because the wife of the hero did not like her. She told that while dubbing dialogues for one of her flicks, she was asked to change her dialogue as the hero was not comfortable with it. Though she refused to change the dialogue, the makers made it happen by hiring a dubbing artist.

She also talked about the insecurities of the actors as once a hero wanted to change her introduction scene as he felt that it would overshadow his introduction scene. She also spoke about the incident in which she was asked to reduce her fees because the last movie of the hero bombed at the box-office and producers needed to do some cost-cutting in the budget.

Apart from it all, the “Mulk” actress has also disclosed how she is planning to work in the future. As per her, she has decided to work only in those films in which she feels happy to work. Though some have advised her not to do so because it may affect her overall career, she is in no mood to listen to them and says that whenever an actress starts doing women-centric movies, many male actors stop working with her. She further adds that it may make her journey tougher and longer but she will certainly enjoy it as she has been doing it till now.

Taapsee is pretty active on social media networks and has a huge fan following but she is also one of the favorites of trollers as she likes to express her opinion on many issues which sometimes doesn’t go well with other people.

More power to you Taapsee Pannu!
