World Cup Winner Madan Lal Demands Rishabh Pant’s Exclusion, Wasim Jaffer Gives An Apt Reply

The young Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant is constantly getting slammed for his poor batting performances on the South African tour and the manner in which he threw his wicket in the second innings of the second test match attracted huge amount of criticism. The second test match between India and South Africa was played at the Wanderers in Johannesburg and the hosts managed to level the 3-match series by 1-1 as they emerged victorious in this test match.

Rishabh Pant tried to hit a big shot on the bowling of Kagiso Rabada and lost his wicket by giving a catch to the wicketkeeper. What irked the former cricketers and cricket lovers was that India needed someone to stay on the crease and develop a partnership instead of hitting big shots straightway. Rishabh Pant got out on the third ball that he faced but if he had batted sensibly and scored some useful runs, India might have managed to draw the match, if not won it.

The former Indian cricketer Madan Lal who was a part of the 1983 World Cup winning team is also pretty upset with Rishabh Pant and he demanded that Rishabh Pant should be excluded from the team as he plays for himself and not for the team. Madan Lal suggests that the veteran wicketkeeper-batsman Wriddhiman Saha should be included in the playing XI in place of Pant.

Another former Indian cricketer Wasim Jaffer didn’t agree with Madan Lal and stated that the head coach Rahul Dravid and skipper Virat Kohli must have talked to Rishabh Pant regarding his approach and he should remain in the team because he is an X-factor, match winner and a better batsman than Saha.

The third and the final test match will start from tomorrow at Newlands Cricket Ground, Cape Town, and the team winning this match will also be the winner of the series.

When Saif Called Katrina Hotter Than His Wife Kareena & Shahid Couldn’t Stop His Laughter

The movie producer and director Karan Johar is known for making things difficult for other Bollywood celebs by asking some really tricky questions. In the same manner, he created a complicated situation for the actor Saif Ali Khan who appeared on the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhla Jaa 8 along with Katrina Kaif for promoting their movie “Phantom” which got released in the year 2015.

Karan Johar was a judge on the show along with Shahid Kapoor in that season and it was then that KJo asked Saif Ali Khan to tell whom he thinks is the hottest among Katrina Kaif, his wife Kareena Kapoor Khan, Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Sonam Kapoor.

In response, Saif Ali Khan called Katrina Kaif hotter than Kareena and other beauties because of which Shahid Kapoor laughed profusely.

Karan Johar also asked this tough question to the other two celebs (Katrina and Shahid) as he gave them the options, Katrina Kaif took the name of her then boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor five times in order to give more emphasis on it. On the other hand, Shahid Kapoor chose to play safe and called his wife Mira Kapoor as his favourite. However when Katrina Kaif called Ranbir Kapoor hotter than other actors (Saif Ali Khan’s name was also in the list), Saif changed his answer and called Kareena Kapoor Khan as her only option in terms of hotness.

Shahid Kapoor also asked the same question to Karan Johar and the latter was not willing to answer it initially but when the “Kaminey” actor forced him to reply, KJo very clearly stated that for him, Kareena Kapoor Khan is the hottest always.

Here is the video:

Delhi Police Has An Epic Reply To Twitter User’s Silly Question Over COVID Weekend Curfew

The COVID-19 outbreak is once again wreaking havoc in the country as COVID-19 positive cases are increasing at a high rate and the new variant Omicron is making things worse for people as well as the government. The national capital New Delhi recorded more than 17K COVID-19 cases on Friday and there is good possibility that the number of cases may cross the 20K mark on Saturday (today).

In view of the increasing cases, the Delhi government decided to impose weekend restrictions in the city. At one fell swoop, the Delhi Police decided to have an online Q&A session in order to answer the queries of citizens regarding details of the restrictions that will be imposed. Many citizens asked genuine questions but there were some who were not so serious about the situation and they tried to have fun at the expense of the Delhi Police.

However, such citizens ended up getting trolled as the Delhi Police gave some really epic answers.

One online user asked whether they can play cricket with social distancing and mask and the response that the Delhi Police gave was very funny as they used cricketing terms in their answer which made many people laugh.

The tweet read, “Can we play cricket with social distancing and mask…”

The Delhi Police responded with, “That’s a ‘Silly Point’, Sir.  It is time to take ‘Extra Cover’. Also, #DelhiPolice is good at ‘Catching’.”

Twitter users also reacted to the Delhi Police’s tweet and praised the police department for giving the taste of their own medicine to such users. Here are some of the selected tweets:

The government departments have now understood the importance of having a strong social media presence and all the departments, especially those that have to deal with the citizens directly are leaving no stone unturned in making themselves available online in order to help people in a prompt manner.

David Warner Opens Up On SRH Sacking Him & Lashes Out At Team Management

David Warner, the Aussie cricketer, may not have been able to perform well in the ongoing fourth test match but overall he seems to be in good touch and it is quite certain that he will attract high bid in the upcoming mega auction ahead of the IPL 2022. David Warner has been released by the IPL team Sunrisers Hyderabad and after whatever happened in the IPL 2021, everyone was sure that the cricketer would also not like to stay with the franchise.

SRH has won the IPL only once in the year 2016 under the leadership of David Warner but in the IPL 2021, he was removed from the post of captain midway after team tasted successive defeats and later on, he was also dropped from playing XI. What made his fans very angry was that in the second leg of the league, Warner was not even taken to the stadium and he used to watch the matches in his hotel room.

Recently in an interview, David Warner talked about his sacking and dropping from the team and also about what hurt him the most. He makes it clear that he completely disagrees with the way he has been sacked and questions that if a skipper is removed and dropped from the playing XI after what he has done for the team, what message other team members will get. He adds that what has hurt him the most is that now the other players would be thinking that this could happen to them as well.

The 35 years old Aussie cricketer emphasized on the need of having communication as he said that there should be conversations regarding all the issues. He added that he wanted to have a conversation but no one came forward. Warner is of the opinion that there is no need to shy away from the conversations as he is not going to bite just because he is not getting a place in the team.

David Warner is quite popular among the Indians not just because of his cricketing skills but also for his social media presence as he regularly posts videos in which he is seen dancing on the tunes of the Indian movies and sometimes he also crops his face on the faces of actors.

What do you think of this whole SRH-David Warner episode? Do let us know.

Irrfan Khan’s Wife Sutapa Sikdar Disclosed He Was Afraid She Would Get Bored And Leave Him

Irrfan Khan has left such a big impact on the audiences that he will always be remembered by his fans despite the fact that he left all of us on 29th April 2020 after prolonged illness.

Today is Irrfan’s 55th birth anniversary and on this occasion, his wife Sutapa Sikdar made some revelations about their relationship and the bond that they shared. In an interview, Sutapa said that Irrfan was not a husband material and he was not even able to imagine his life without her. She further added that for many initial years, the “Hindi Medium” actor was afraid that she would leave him if she got bored.

Talking about their marriage, Sutapa Sikdar said that their bond was a union and not a marriage because there is insecurity in marriage but not in union. She elaborated that there is no chance that a marriage can guarantee understanding, compatibility and desire to stay together for lifetime. She is of the opinion that while marriage can be termed as social norm, union is between two people who are even ready to risk their lives for staying with each other. She said that though their marriage had many weak points, their union always won.

Irrfan Khan and Sutapa Sikdar got married in 1995 and Sutapa said that in his last days, the “Haasil” actor was more worried about her rather than for himself. Irrfan’s elder son Babil is going to make his debut in acting Qala which will be streamed on Netflix.

You will always be missed Irrfan!
