The Indian cricket team is all set to face the New Zealand cricket team in the finals of the World Test Championship which will be played at Hampshire Bowl, Southampton, next month. the Indian pacer Mohammad Shami is also ready to make a comeback in the Indian squad after almost 6 months as he suffered a fracture in his arm while playing the first test match against Australia in the four match test series. Shami was also not able to play against the England cricket team when it toured India before the IPL 2021 because of his injury. In Shami’s absence, the young pacers such as Mohammed Siraj, T. Natarajan and Shardul Thakur rose to the situation and bowled brilliantly to help their team win the series against Australia and then against England as well.

During an interview when Shami was asked about teaching or giving input to the youngsters while playing with them, the speedster said that after playing international cricket for so many years, he would surely like to share his knowledge with the youngsters if they want to learn. Shami adds that he is not going to play forever so he will be more than happy to pass on his learning to the youngsters.

Shami is quite confident of performing well in the finals of the World Test Championship and in the five match test series against England which will take place after the WTC final as the Indian team has played some great cricket in the recent past.

Mohd. Shami may have to leave the tour of Australia after the first test match but the Indian squad won the series by 2-1 and then team India defeated England in four match test series by 3-1.

Mohd. Shami states that the confidence level of the Indian team is pretty high before leaving for England and if the Indian team managed to play the manner in which they have played in the last 6 months, they will certainly have a great summer.

We wish all the best to the Indian team for the finals of World Test Championship!!

Sachin Tendulkar, the legendary former Indian cricketer, is no less than God for the cricket fans and it won’t be wrong to say that there are many Indians who are inspired by him while few others literally worship him. However, you will be surprised to know that even the God of cricket had faced anxiety in his cricketing career and has also spent many sleepless nights due to it.

Mental health is quite important for a human being and its importance has increased further in the times of the coronavirus pandemic as many people have lost their jobs, businesses have closed and people are forced to remain inside their houses in order to save themselves from the lethal virus.

Sachin Tendulkar opened up on his fight with anxiety and how he dealt with it during an interaction which was conducted by Unacademy, a Bengaluru based Indian education technology organization. Sachin said that for 10-12 years, he felt anxious and had many sleepless nights before every match.

Sachin is of the opinion that the best possible way to deal with it is to accept it and later on, he started accepting anxiety as a part of preparation for a game. According to Little Master, doing things such as making tea, ironing clothes helped him in keeping his mind balanced and at ease. Sachin Tendulkar said that he also made peace with the times when he was not able to sleep in night and he also talked about the habit of packing his bag before the match which was taught to him by his brother. He added that he did the same thing even before the last match that he played for the country.

Sachin feels that acceptability is quite important because once a person accepts it, he then starts finding the solution.

The last test match that Sachin Tendulkar played for India was in 2013 at Wankhede stadium, Mumbai, and he is the only cricketer in the history of cricket who has scored 100 international centuries. Master Blaster also led Mumbai Indians in the IPL and has a century to his name in the league as well.

Hopefully, the words of wisdom spoken by the legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar would be of any help to all those who are suffering from mental problems due to COVID-19.

Everyone knows what they need to do in their lives to succeed. When we think about professional decisions, most of us know the drill very well. Get trained, get certified, get a job, work hard, get promoted, get a raise, save money, blah blah. However, we are not always familiar with the things we must NOT do at any cost in our professional lives. You may think that it’s the same thing: you know the list of Dos and you can just reverse them to see the Don’ts. But that’s not how it works. And that’s why you need to read this article.

1. Saying no to new opportunities.

Your daily job can become so hectic and overloaded that sometimes, you will want to just ignore any new opportunities and challenges that are thrown your way. And guess what, it’s OK to do that a few times, especially if you already have a lot on your plate and if it would be really counterproductive to take on new responsibilities. But, you need to be careful to not let it become a habit. Remind yourself every time a new opportunity comes, that this could be a life-changing moment. Whether it is overseeing another department, or helping someone through their CEH online training, you never know what the opportunity could be hiding under its guise. Did you know that the Khan Academy founder started his successful journey by accepting the simple request to help his cousin with her math while he was working as a hedge fund analyst?

2. Staying stuck at your job

A lot of people are familiar with the feeling of being stuck in their jobs. If they have already spent a significant time in their profession to know that they don’t really like it, they can feel that it’s too late for them to switch their career and start afresh. If you also feel the same, then remind yourself that it’s better late than never. Choosing a field does not mean that you have to commit to it forever. Sure, you need to be practical and consider factors like how much you will need to invest in your new profession, how much savings you will need to burn through to rebuild your career etc. But once you put your ideas to paper and chalk out the blueprint, things will start looking more achievable.

Do you know that a lot of people are making the switch to cyber security because it is a highly promising field in information technology? If you are also interested in switching to a cyber security career, say ethical hacking, you could get all that you need to know to start your career in less than a month, from the comfort of your home! An ethical hacking course online can be completed in just a week and can set you up for a decent entry-level job anywhere in the world.

Anyway, coming back to the part that you need to avoid: Don’t let people tell you that you can’t do something because they couldn’t muster up the courage to do it. It’s better to try something than to regret it anyway. And in this case, you would be doing so with detailed planning and a backup plan. So, never make the mistake of thinking that you are ever ‘stuck forever’ in your job. People change their careers at the age of 40, and you can do it too.

Most professionals can relate to these two factors primarily. If you can relate to them as well, then don’t forget to imbibe these lessons in your life and share them with your colleagues and friends too!

Ruturaj Gaikwad, the Chennai Super Kings cricketer who plays for Maharashtra in domestic circuits, had a decent IPL 2021 and he has certainly shown the spark about which MS Dhoni talked in the IPL 2020. Just like other cricketers, Ruturaj is also active on the social media networks and recently he made headlines when he liked the photos posted by the Marathi actress Sayali Sanjeev.

Sayali shared some of her pics on her Instagram account and Ruturaj commented “Woahh” in admiration. In return, Sayali also posted some heart emojis. Soon this banter was noticed by the media persons and some of them started speculating a love affair between two of them.

Before this rumour could gain momentum, the CSK cricketer chose to put an end to them by making a post. His post was in the Marathi language and it meant that only bowlers can pick his wicket, that too clean bowled and not any other person (“Mera wicket sirf bowler le sakta hai”). He also added that whoever wants to understand has understood.

With this post, Ruturaj has clearly stated that there is nothing between him and Sayali Sanjeev.

As far as Sayali Sanjeev is concerned, she is a very popular actress of Marathi television and in the year 2016, she was also awarded with the Best Actress Award by Zee Marathi. The actress who is best known for her role in Marathi serial Kahe Diya Pardes has also worked in quite a few endorsements of some good brands.

Ruturaj made couple of half-centuries in the IPL 2021 before it got postponed due to COVID-19. In the seven matches that he played, he scored 196 runs at an average of 28 and strike rate of 128.94.

Media persons are always in a hurry to create stories, aren’t they?

The sandpaper gate scandal was one of the darkest episodes of the Australian cricket history as it not only brought embarrassment but also reduced love of the Australians for the game of cricket after seeing their top cricketers being involved in such a shameful act.

Let us help you in recalling what exactly happened – in the 2018 Cape Town test match which was the fourth and last match of the series that was played between Australia and South Africa, the Australian cricketer Cameron Bancroft was found guilty of using sandpaper for scuffing the ball which is illegal as per the laws of the game. The then skipper Steve Smith and vice-captain David Warner accepted that they had complete knowledge of what Bancroft was doing.

The Cricket Australia took strict action against these three and suspended Steve Smith and David Warner for a year while Cameron Bancroft was suspended for the period of nine months. Steve Smith and David Warner also lost their right of leading the side in the future.

All the three cricketers have made a comeback in the national side, while Steve Smith and David Warner are going pretty strong, Cameron Bancroft managed to make a comeback but he failed to make an impact and was dropped from the national side after Ashes 2019.

Cameron Bancroft has now made a comment in regard to the sandpaper gate scandal which has once again created a controversy. While talking to The Guardian, Cameron Bancroft gave a hint that the Australian bowlers were also aware of what was happening at that time. He added that in order to fulfill his desire of being liked and valued by his teammates, he did something which made him lose his own values. As per him, he felt that he was contributing to his team by rubbing sandpaper on the ball.

The Cricket Australia also reacted on the statement given by Cameron Bancroft and said that they are ready to look into the matter again if any new information is provided to them despite the fact that the investigation carried out earlier was done in detail and was complete.

What do you think of the statement made by Cameron Bancroft and it will be interesting to see how Steve Smith and David Warner will react to it.

Ambati Rayudu was left heartbroken after he was not selected in the Indian team for the ICC World Cup 2019 and Vijay Shankar was preferred over him. When the chief selector MSK Prasad was asked in this regard, he said that Vijay Shankar was chosen because he is a three dimensional player.

After this statement of Prasad, Rayudu made a tweet taking a dig at the selectors, “Just Ordered a new set of 3D glasses to watch the world cup.”

Just Ordered a new set of 3d glasses to watch the world cup ..

— Ambati Rayudu (@RayuduAmbati) April 16, 2019

Vijay Shankar, the all-rounder cricketer was able to play only three matches in the World Cup as he was ruled out of the remaining tournament post suffering a toe injury. Since then, he has not been able to make a comeback in the Indian team but the 3D tag has got associated with him and the trollers use it to mock him whenever he is not able to perform well.

Recently, Vijay Shankar gave an interview to a news channel and he talked in regard to many issues, such as online trolling, 3D tag, etc. When the Sunrisers Hyderbad cricketer was asked about the 3D tag, he said that he has no connection with it whatsoever, it was just given to him and made viral. He further said that he played three matches for India, adding that his performances were decent and he did nothing bad. Vijay Shankar said that in the IPL also, he has batted at different numbers and he is being compared to Ambati Rayudu but their batting orders and conditions are quite different.

Vijay Shankar says that there is no problem in comparing him with Ambati Rayudu but then people should also take in view the slots and the conditions that they both play in. According to Vijay Shankar, people don’t consider these things but they love to have fun on social media handles on his expense.

Talking about his relationship with Ambati Rayudu, Vijay Shankar states that there are no personal issues between them and they are on good talking terms. He added that it just happened that the tweet went viral on social media but he has no issue with Rayudu and they had a great conversation when they met last time in Delhi.

It is pretty good to hear that both these cricketers have nothing bitter in their hearts for each other and they still share a good bond.
