Twitter Went Berserk As Five Indian Players Placed In Isolation Before INDvsAUS 3rd Test

The Indian cricket fans are not happy after hearing the news of five Indian cricketers being isolated in Australia. Moreover, a joint investigation has also been started by Board of Control for Cricket in India and Cricket Australia in order to ascertain whether the bio-bubble protocol has been breached or not. These five Indian players are Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Prithvi Shaw, Navdeep Saini and Rishabh Pant and they have been isolated after they went to eat at a restaurant where their bill was paid by a fan who narrated the whole incident on the micro-blogging site Twitter. The fan also claimed that he was hugged by Rishabh Pant but later he denied it and said that he wrote about Pant hugging him in excitement.

The players are allowed to eat out but in indoor settings and they have to follow the social distancing norms as well. The cricketers are permitted to walk around in the cities which they are visiting to play the matches but they are not allowed to eat at indoor restaurants and also not to use public transport.

Both the boards are looking into the matter and the players have been kept in isolation only after having consultation with the medical experts. However, BCCI has decided to support the Indian players as it is pretty sure that nothing has been done intentionally by the players.

Indian Twitterati is pretty upset after this development and the online users are sharing their opinions and views on this matter. Here are some of the selected tweets:

The Indian cricket team is presently on the Australian tour and bio-bubble protocols need to be followed strictly considering the fact that the whole world is facing the wrath of the coronavirus pandemic. The 4-match test series has been leveled at 1-1 as the first test match was won by the Aussies while in the second test match, the visitors have emerged as the winners. The third test match will start on Jan 7, 2021, and will be played in Sydney.

The players will get training sessions as per the protocol but this is something which could have been avoided. What do you say?

ICC Mercilessly Trolled For Sharing A Photo Of Nathan Lyon Wearing Underwear Having His Own Pic

The Australian spinner Nathan Lyon may not have been able to perform well in the last two test matches against India but it is true that he is one of the best Australian spinners of all times. He will certainly look forward to create trouble for the Indian batters in the remaining two test matches but presently, he is making headlines for his underwear.

Some photos of the off-spinner are going viral on the social media networks in which he is seen wearing underwear on which his own pic is printed. These images show him appealing for the wicket in the same manner as he does on the field. Many memes and jokes were made in this regard by Twitterati but they didn’t like it when the International Council of Cricket (ICC) also shared one such photo with the caption, “Gazza takes appealing to a whole new level”.

Many cricket lovers got angry with ICC’s official Twitter handle sharing this type of photos of the cricketers and they slammed the cricket body badly. Here are some of the selected tweets:

Talking about Nathan Lyon, he is a terrific player who has taken 394 wickets in 98 test matches which also include 18 five wicket hauls. He has also taken 4-wicket hauls 16 times in the purest form of the game. Other than being a superb spinner, he is also a good lower order batsman who has scored 1064 runs with an average of 12.22.

Nathan Lyon needs to play well if the Australian team has to win the remaining two matches for winning the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, however it won’t be easy for him to trouble the Indian batsmen as usually the Indians are good players of spin.

What do you think of ICC sharing such a photo?

“They Are 17-18 On Paper But Real Age Is 27-28,” Mohammad Asif Says About Present Pak Bowlers

The New Zealand cricket team has taken an invincible lead in the two match test series against Pakistan by winning the first test by 101 runs and the Pakistani cricketers have also been praised for playing good cricket despite losing the match.

However, now a former Pakistani cricketer Mohammad Asif has made a controversial statement as per which the current Pakistani bowlers are much older than the age given in the records. The former Pak pacer has said this while speaking to the Pakistani wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal on his Akmal’s YouTube channel after he was asked as to why the present team of Pakistan is not able to take 20 wickets and win the test matches like the teams of earlier generation used to do.

As per Asif, it has been 5-6 years that a pacer has taken 10 wickets in a test match. He added that the bowlers of his generation used to drool over the pitches as there are in New Zealand and there was no question of leaving the ball as a fast bowler. Mohammad Asif claimed that he himself never gave up the ball until he took a five wicket haul.

Talking about the Pakistani bowlers of today, Asif says that these kids have no knowledge, they are not able to keep batsman on the front foot, stop the singles and can’t even bowl on wickets. He further adds that when these bowlers try to bowl on wickets, the ball goes towards the leg-side because they have no control. He goes on to say that on the papers, their age may have been written as 17-18 years but in reality, they are not less than 27-28 years of age. He further says that they are not able to bend their bodies, they can’t bowl 20-25 overs because they don’t have the flexibility which is needed for bowling long spells and they are not even able to stay on the field after bowling 5-6 over spell.

It would be interesting to see how the current cricketers or the Pakistani board would react on this statement given by Mohammad Asif.

Sunil Gavaskar Talks About Controversial Walkout Incident In 1981 & Reveals What Made Him Angry

The use of technology has made umpiring a little easy for the on-field umpires as they have the liberty of checking with the off-field umpire who can give his opinion after watching the replays from different angles on television. However, it was not the case earlier as the decision of the on-field umpires used to be the final decision and unsurprisingly, they used to take some wrong decisions as well.

Sunil Gavaskar, the former Indian cricketer, recalled an incident after which a huge uproar was caused because of him after he was given out in a wrong manner. This incident is best known as the walkout incident and it took place during the India-Australia series 1981 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Sunil Gavaskar was the skipper of the Indian team at that time and during one of the test, on one delivery bowled by Dennis Lillee which was an in-cutter, umpire Rex Whitehead gave Sunil Gavaskar lbw out after the ball touched his pad. However, Little Master showed his disagreement in a strong manner as he felt that the ball first touched his bat before touching the pad. In a show of dissent, Sunil Gavaskar kept standing on the pitch for a long time and as he was going back to the pavilion, his anger increased manifold when he heard one Australian player saying, “get lost”.

Sunil Gavaskar went to his batting partner Chetan Chauhan and told him to walk back with him. Chetan got confused but obeyed his skipper and started walking back with Sunil. The matter got resolved only after the team manager Shahid Durrani and assistant manager Bapu Nadkarni met both the players on the boundary rope and convinced Gavaskar to let Chetan Chauhan return to the field.

During the interview, Sunil Gavaskar said that he was quite upset with the lbw decision but walk-off happened only after the comment was made by the Australian player. According to him, he told the umpires that he got an inside edge which was seen clearly by the forward short leg fielder because of which he didn’t even move while others were appealing. He also recalled that Dennis Lillee was trying to tell him where the ball hit him but he told the Australian bowler that he hit the ball with bat.

Taking this into consideration, it can be said that players of the present times are pretty lucky as they have the option of the off-field umpire as well which minimizes the chances of errors.

Rohit, Pant, Saini & Gill In Trouble After Indian Fan Spots Them, Pays Their Bill & Tweets About It

There is no doubt that cricket is equivalent to religion for Indians and many fans are so crazy that they can do anything for their favourite cricketers.

Recently, an Indian fan who went to a restaurant in Melbourne with his wife spotted Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Shubman Gill and Navdeep Saini also over there and as a lovely gesture towards the Indian cricketers, the fan paid their bill which was AUD 118.69 (INR 6683).

The name of this fan is Navaldeep Singh and he shared the incident in a series of tweets on the micro-blogging site Twitter. In his first tweet, he posted a video in which all the four cricketers can be seen.

Navaldeep was not quite hungry but still he ordered some food so that he could sit over there and see the Indian cricketers.

He also shared the photo of the bill of the players which he paid while the cricketers were not aware about it.

When the players got to know that their bill had been paid by Navaldeep, Rohit Sharma requested him to take money as this didn’t look good. Rishabh Pant hugged Navaldeep and also said that if he did not take money, they would not allow to get them clicked with him. However, Navaldeep refused to take money and all the cricketers got their photos clicked with him and his wife.

In fact, Rishabh Pant who is known for his wittiness thanked Navaldeep’s wife for the lunch before leaving.

This certainly made the day for Navaldeep Singh but there was news that the Board of Control for Cricket In India had started an investigation in the matter of possible breach of bio-bubble by the cricketers after they met a fan. It is being said that BCCI is reviewing the video and other evidences and it seems that these cricketers will have to get tested for COVID-19 before entering the bio-bubble again.

Navaldeep also issued a clarification in which he stated that he wrote Pant hugged him in excitement but in reality, Pant never hugged him, adding that social distancing was maintained and the Indian cricketers broke no protocol. Here is what Navaldeep wrote, “Clarification – Pant never hugged me it was all said in excitement we maintained social distance all thru:) Apologies for miscommunication @BCCI  @CricketAus @dailytelegraph”

The Indian team will be flying soon for Sydney where they will be playing the third test match against Australia starting Jan 7, 2021.
