Pujara Talks About Toughest Time Of His Career When He Couldn’t Handle Pressure & Cried

Cheteshwar Pujara is undoubtedly one of the best batsmen of test cricket and what makes him stand apart from other players is that he is mentally very strong and highly determined. He may have a slow batting style but his presence on the field is more than enough to increase the chances of India’s win. The head coach of the Indian cricket team Ravi Shastri called Pujara a warrior after he played an important role in India’s win in 4-match test series against Australia which India won by 2-1.

However, Cheteshwar Pujara had to face many problems before getting successful and you will be surprised to know that this mentally tough Indian cricketer once became so weak that he even had doubts about playing cricket. Pujara who plays for Saurashtra in the domestic circuit revealed during a YouTube interview that the toughest time of his career was when he suffered the first injury of his career.

Pujara stated that after he sustained his first injury, the team physio came to him and told him that it would take around 6 months to recover. Pujara said that after hearing this, he got so upset that he started crying and doubts started coming in his mind about playing cricket at international level. However, soon the Saurashtra cricketer started conversing with his father, family members, friends, etc. and they helped him in coming out of negative state by telling him not to worry. Pujara said that shortly he stopped thinking about the future and focused all his thoughts on his present.

According to Pujara, once a person goes into negative state, then everything around him seems negative to him. He adds that he practices meditation and yoga for keeping himself in positive state of mind and his prayers also help him a lot in staying positive.

Cheteshwar Pujara further says that now he is able to handle pressure effectively but in his younger days, he used to cry in front of his mother and say that he is having a lot of pressure and nervousness and he doesn’t want to play cricket.

Pujara has certainly worked pretty hard not just on his cricketing skills but also on his mental strength.

Nawazuddin Opens Up On Major Lessons About Money & Unity He Has Learnt From Pandemic

The coronavirus pandemic has forced us to change our lifestyle in various aspects but it won’t be wrong to say that it has also taught us many important lessons. In simple words, it has made us think about our real priorities and also made us realize that we were wasting our lives running after those things which are of not much use to us.

Recently, the Bollywood actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui opened up about the lessons that he learnt from the coronavirus pandemic. During an interview with a leading daily, the “Raman Raghav 2.0” star said that it made him understand money doesn’t guarantee happiness always. As per him, he also realised that for a long time, he was running after unnecessary things in life. He further said that because of this phase, he understood there is no need of running after work and how wrong those people are who feel that life becomes awesome after a person earns good money.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui also says that these tough times have also taught us the power of unity and it is pretty clear that the more we help each other in these times, the more we increase our chances of winning this fight.

Some time ago, the “Bajrangi Bhaijaan” actor slammed the Bollywood celebs who were visiting Maldives for vacations and posting their photos on the social media handles. Nawaz criticised them for displaying their privilege in the times when many people lost their jobs and are struggling for earning their livelihoods.

When Nawaz was asked whether he has any plans of visiting Maldives, he made it clear that he is in his hometown Budhana with his family and Budhana is his Maldives.

There is no denying the fact that money won’t guarantee happiness as many rich and influential also succumbed to the lethal virus or they could not save their loved ones.

Follow all the guidelines and safety measures to stay safe.

PUBG To Relaunch In India As Battlegrounds Mobile India, Rejoiced Gamers Celebrate With Memes

There were many who used to love playing PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) before it was banned by the Indian government because of its Chinese connections. However, gamers had the option of some other alternate games which were little similar to PUBG such as Free Fire and FAUG was also launched but the PUBG fans were not satisfied with these games.

Now there is good news for the PUBG lovers as their favourite game is all set to return to India but with a new name – “Battlegrounds Mobile India”. The announcement regarding it was made by the South Korean developer Krafton and the gamers can be assured of the fact that the new game will be majorly a replica of PUBG.

Krafton also states that the pre-registrations will start soon but hasn’t given any specific date for the purpose. The new game will not only offer free-to-play gaming on mobiles but also a world-class AAA multiplayer platform. Before the ban was imposed, PUBG had around 50 million users and it was the most popular mobile game in the country.

However this time, the minors (person below 18) will have to follow some conditions as they will be allowed to play maximum 3 hours and that too after getting consent from their parents. One more condition that has been imposed for the minors is that their spending limit has been limited to Rs. 7000.

Viral Video Shows Ambulance Being Stopped For Passing IPL Convoy, Police Reveals Truth

The IPL 2021 was a pretty big topic of discussion among people as the cricket lovers were very happy that they could have some entertainment in the times when they need to stay at home and there is already so much of negativity around so at least they had an option that could bring smile on their faces and offer some moments of joy and excitement. However, there was one section of the society which was very upset with the government and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for conducting the tournament when the whole country is battling against the second wave of COVID-19.

The IPL 2021 got postponed recently as some players were tested COVID-19 positive so BCCI was compelled to take the big decision of postponing the tournament in order to ensure the safety and well-being of the players, staff and every person associated with the league.

The critics of the IPL got one more chance to slam the tournament when a video went viral in which it was seen that an ambulance was stopped so that the convoy of Kolkata Knight Riders could pass.

The video clipping of this incident was posted on the micro-blogging site Twitter by the Twitter handle @iScrew with the caption, “Ahmedabad police stopped an ambulance to let pass IPL cricketers’ convoy in a bizarre turn of events. News18 Gujarati reports this horrible incident that has sparked fury among citizens #Gujarat”.

As the video went viral, the police officials also looked into the matter and after talking to the traffic personnel present at the location, Joint Commissioner of Ahmedabad, Mayanksinh stated that it may be an attempt to malign the image of the police. He says that they have watched the video but police never stops any ambulance for any VIP or IPL players, though he also adds that it may be a matter of momentary confusion. Another police officer questioned why the ambulance was not using the siren if it needed to reach the hospital in time.

Representational Image

The Deputy Police Commissioner, Tejas Patel talked to a leading daily in this regard and said that he had a chat with the traffic police personnel deployed at the location. They told him that two buses of the convoy had already passed when the ambulance arrived over there and stopping the third bus suddenly might have resulted in a mishap. He also added the ambulance had to wait over there for only 16 seconds.

Do you think that conducting the IPL 2021 in the times of the coronavirus pandemic was a wrong decision? Let us know your views on the whole matter.

Harsha Bhogle Refers To Ravindra Jadeja As “Sir Jadeja” & Praises Him, The Latter Responds

The IPL 2021 has been postponed indefinitely by the Board of Control for Cricket in India after some players tested COVID-19 positive and it became necessary to postpone the tournament for ensuring the safety and well-being of players, support staff and other people associated with the league.

Earlier the board was thinking of taking the whole tournament to Mumbai but after Amit Mishra of Delhi Capitals and Wriddhiman Saha of Sunrisers Hyderabad tested positive, the board was left with no option other than postponing the IPL 2021. The tournament had reached the halfway mark as all the teams had faced one another at least once and there were some really wonderful performances by the players which will be remembered by the cricket fans. For example, the blistering knock of Mumbai Indians’ Kieron Pollard or Sanju Samson’s century against Punjab Kings (earlier Kings Xi Punjab), beautiful bowling by Harshal Patel and Deepak Chahar, sensational knock by AB de Villiers, etc.

However as per the cricketing analyst and commentator Harsha Bhogle, if there is someone who can be given the title of stand-out all-rounder, it is Ravindra Jadeja who plays for Chennai Super Kings. Harsha Bhogle referred to the match which was played between CSK and Virat Kohli led Royal Challengers Bangalore. In that match, Ravindra Jadeja scored 62 runs in just 28 balls; out of this 62, he scored 37 runs in the one over which was bowled by Harshal Patel. Jadeja then also showed his class in bowling as he took 3 wickets and gave away only 13 runs. These three dismissals included the very important wickets of AB de Villiers and Glenn Maxwell plus Jadeja also played an important role in the run out of Dan Christian.

In his video, Harsha Bhogle praised the Indian all-rounder lavishly and also called him Sir Jadeja.

Here is the video:

This soon got noticed by Ravindra Jadeja who took to Twitter to thank Harsha Bhogle for all the appreciation and also requested to call him Ravindra Jadeja only.

This is what Indian cricketer tweeted, “Thanks a lot @bhogleharsha but I will be more happy if you call me Ravindra Jadeja”.

Undoubtedly Ravindra Jadeja is a special player! What do you think?

Twitter User Asks People To Show How Middle Class They Are, The Responses Are Damn Relatable

Growing up in a middle class family teaches a lot about life, especially how to live happily even with limited resources. The bitter truth is that even the government is not much worried about the middle class because it knows that the middle class people are the ones who will adjust somehow to whatever situation the face due to the policies made by the government.

Individuals from the middle class families develop some habits which may seem strange to the rich but for the middle class people, it is a way of life. We are talking about habits like cutting the cream tube in half in order to use the cream properly or pressing the toothpaste tube so hard that each drop of it comes out or saving the Rs. 5 coin which a person gets after completing a financial transaction.

There are many other habits which define a middle class family and recently a Twitter user asked the online users to describe that they are from middle class household without telling that they are from middle class household. In simple words, the online user wanted netizens to post photos which reveal that they come from a middle class family.

The tweet read, “Tell me you’re from a middle class household without saying you’re from a middle class household”.

We must admit that netizens made the optimum use of this thread by depicting every possible thing one can find in a middle class household. From cover on remote, TV and sofa to protect it from stains to squeezed tube of toothpaste and a particular design of spoon and slippers, each thing was mentioned. Here are some of the selected reactions from the Twitter users:

Michael Slater Slams Australian Govt As It Bans Its Citizens From India, PM Scott Morrison Reacts

The second wave of COVID-19 has hit India in a hard manner and the cases are increasing at an alarming rate. Many foreign nations including Australia have banned the flights from India as they don’t want the virus to spread in their own country. However, Australia has gone one step further and has announced a lockout for its citizens who are in India at the moment.

As per the announcement made by the Australian PM Scott Morrison, no Australian citizen will be permitted to enter the country till May 15 and if anyone is found guilty of breaking the rule, he will have to pay a huge fine of $66K or he will be sentenced to prison for 5 years. The Aussie government has taken this decision in order to ensure that the quarantine system doesn’t get loaded but this decision is getting slammed by many including the Aussies who are associated with the IPL 2021 in some manner.

Many Australian cricketers are playing for various franchises while there are a number of former Aussie players who are associated with various franchises in the capacity of coach, support staff, etc. and few of the former Aussie cricketers are also working as commentators.

The former Aussie cricketer Michael Slater who was associated with the IPL 2021 as a commentator has also slammed the Australian PM for his new rule of not letting Australian citizens return to their homes from India. He took to Twitter, called this new rule as disgrace and said that if the Australian government is really worried about their safety, it should allow them to return home.  He also added that he had the permission of the government to work in the IPL but now what he is left with is the government neglect.

Michael Slater tweeted, “If our Government cared for the safety of Aussies they would allow us to get home. It’s a disgrace!! Blood on your hands PM. How dare you treat us like this? How about you sort out quarantine system? I had government permission to work on the IPL but I now have government neglect”.

Michael Slater had left the IPL midway and on the weekend, he travelled to Maldives. After this tweet of Michael Slater, he was slammed by many for choosing health over money but the former Aussie cricketer shut them down by saying that this is what he does for living and he hasn’t earned a penny as he left the league midway.

This is what Slater tweeted, “And for those who think this is a money exercise. Well forget it. This is what I do for a living and I have not made a penny having left early. So please stop the abuse and think of the thousands dying in India each day. It’s called empathy. If only our government had some!”

The Australian PM Scott Morrison has also responded on the “disgrace” comment made by Michael Slater. While talking to Nine Network, PM Morrison supported the ban and called Slater’s comment “obviously absurd”. He said that it is about bringing more people home in a safe manner and saving the country from the third wave.

As far as the IPL 2021 is concerned, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) postponed the IPL indefinitely as few players tested COVID-19 positive.

What is your take in this matter? Let us know.
