“Knock Out By My Dad For Not Qualifying For Knock Outs,” Gabbar’s Funny Video Will ROFL You

Shikhar Dhawan is one of the most popular cricketers of the present times and recently he performed pretty well for his IPL team Punjab Kings as he scored 460 runs in the 14 games that he played in the tournament. He can easily be called a consistent performer as he has scored more than 500 runs in the few last IPLs, however he still didn’t figure in the Indian squad for the South African tour.

Most probably his age is the reason behind him not being selected for the South African tour as the Indian team management wants to try youngsters for the T20 World Cup which is going to be played later this year.

Despite not getting selected in the team, Shikhar Dhawan is still very positive about his future as he has stated recently that he will certainly make a comeback in the Indian squad as three years of cricket is still left in him.

Shikhar Dhawan is pretty active on the social media networks and he keeps on posting hilarious stuffs for entertaining his fans and followers. Recently he once again took to Instagram and shared a video but this time he was accompanied by his father who was seen bashing the cricketer badly because his team Punjab Kings was not able to make it to the play-offs.

Shikhar posted the video with the caption, “Knock out by my dad for not qualifying for knock outs”.

The fans and followers started reacting soon and the former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh also made a funny comment as he wrote, “Bappu tere se bi upar ka actor nikle.. kya baat hai” (Your father is a better actor than you).

As far as the journey of PBKS in the IPL 2022 is concerned, Mayank Agarwal-led side lacked consistency and it stood at the 6th position after winning 7 matches out of 14 played by it. Punjab Kings was earlier known as Kings XI Punjab and it has been a part of the IPL since the inaugural edition of 2008 but it hasn’t won a single title till date.

Shikhar Dhawan is a great entertainer, isn’t he?

“Take A Bow,” Rajat Patidar’s Smashing Century For RCB In Eliminator Makes Twitter Go Crazy

Royal Challengers Bangalore’s IPL 2022 journey was full of ups and downs but now everything seems to be working in its favor. First, Virat Kohli came back in form and played a match-winning knock in its last league match and kept the chances of his team entering the play-offs alive. Secondly, things worked in RCB’s way (Mumbai Indians defeated Delhi Capitals) and it entered the play-offs and now the team has won the eliminator against Lucknow Super Giants despite the fact that the big names of the team – Faf du Plessis, Glenn Maxwell and Virat Kohli failed to perform well.

Rajat Patidar is the man of the moment for RCB fans as he who took the whole responsibility on his shoulders to take his team home as the winner in the knock-out match. What makes it more interesting is the fact that Rajat Patidar, an uncapped Indian cricketer, went unsold in the mega-auction for the IPL 2022, he joined RCB as a replacement for Karnataka cricketer Luvnith Sisodia, was not a part of RCB’s scheme of things in the first half, got a chance in the second half and used every opportunity that came in his way.

In yesterday’s match which was played Kolkata’s Eden Gardens, Rajat Patidar played a blistering knock of 112 runs not out in 54 balls and his innings included 12 fours & 7 sixes and thus, he helped his team in putting up a total of 207/4 on the score board. RCB’s start was very bad as the skipper Faf du Plessis got out for a golden duck and Virat Kohli also looked very uncomfortable while batting as he scored only 25 runs for which he played 24 balls and his innings included only 2 fours. Glenn Maxwell also got out quite early after scoring 9 runs for which he played 10 balls and he was followed by Mahipal Lomror who scored 14 runs (9 balls, 2 fours).

Dinesh Karthik (37 runs, 23 balls, 5 fours & 1 six) supported Patidar well who completed his century in just 49 balls and registered the record of scoring the fastest century in the history of the IPL by an uncapped player in his name. Not just this, he also becomes the first batter to score a century in the eliminator.

If you are hard-working and determined, success and recognition will surely come to you and Rajat Patidar is the best example to prove it. An old video started going viral on the Internet which is from the last league match of RCB and it shows that no one from the RCB camp gave a high-five to Rajat Patidar after RCB won the match but in yesterday’s match, he was given a standing ovation from everyone including the players and staff members of RCB.

Soon Twitter was ablaze with praises for Patidaar and here are few selected reactions:

As far as the match is concerned, LSG lost Quniton de Kock (6 runs, 5 balls, 1 six) quite early but KL Rahul played a good knock of 79 runs (58 balls, 3 fours & 5 sixes) along with Deepak Hooda who scored 45 runs in 26 balls and his innings included 1 four and 4 sixes. LSG fell short by 14 runs and now RCB will clash against Rajasthan Royals in the second qualifier. The winner will play against Gujarat Titans in the finals of the IPL which will be played on May 29 in Ahmedabad.

Do you think RCB will win the IPL 2022?

“He Was Way Ahead Of His Time,” Irfan Recalls Shane Warne’s Incredible Captaincy In IPL2008

Shane Warne, the former Aussie spinner who took his last breath in March this year will always be remembered as one of the best spinners of all times. He had a strong Indian connection as he led the IPL team Rajasthan Royals in the inaugural edition of the league in 2008 and made his team win the first IPL trophy. Shane Warne took the captaincy of RR just one year after his retirement from the international cricket and the manner in which the spin wizard led his team made even his critics his fans.

Recently while doing commentary, the former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan spoke about Shane Warne and his approach during the IPL 2008. Irfan’s elder brother and former Indian cricketer Yusuf Pathan was also a part of Shane Warne’s team at that time along with the former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif. Irfan Pathan said that Shane Warne was different from all other captains and he was way ahead of time as he used to bring his team in stadium at around 7:25 pm as the matches used to start at 8:00 pm. Irfan Pathan added that it was summer season and Shane Warne wanted to conserve the energy of his players and didn’t want to get them tired.

Irfan Pathan was a member of Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab KIngs) at that time and he said that they used to reach stadium around 6 pm and practice a little extra. The former Gujarat cricketer said that though they also did well as they reached the semi-finals, Shane Warne led RR to their first IPL win and whenever people would talk about the IPL, Shane Warne would also be remembered.

RR defeated MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings in the finals of the IPL 2008 and this was the only time they could win an IPL trophy.

As far as the IPL 2022 is concerned, RR has lost the first qualifier to GT but it will get a second chance as it will play the second qualifier against the winner of the eliminator which will be played today between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants.

Shane Warne will always be missed.

“He’s Not Virat Kohli,” Riyan Parag Heavily Slammed For His Attitude & Behaviour During GTvsRR

Rajasthan Royals lost to Gujarat Titans in the first qualifier of the IPL 2022 which was played yesterday at Eden Gardens, Kolkata and now RR will need to win the second qualifier if it wants to play the finals of the tournament. While GT cricketer David Miller made headlines for his blistering knock of 68 runs (38 balls, 3 fours & 5 sixes) which he played against his former franchise, the RR cricketer Riyan Parag was in news for all the wrong reasons and he also got slammed by netizens and cricket fans for his attitude.

There were two incidents which made some fans very angry with Riyan Parag – the first one happened on the last ball of the RR innings when Ravichandran Ashwin was at the striker’s end and Riyan was on the non-striker’s end. The last ball which was bowled by Yash Dayal went wide and straight into the wicketkeeper’s hand but Riyan ran fast to take a single; however Ashwin stood his ground as there was no single and as a result, Riyan got run out. What irked cricket fans the most was that Riyan gave a d*ath stare to the senior cricketer Ashwin despite the fact that there was no run and Ashwin was at no fault.

The second incident took place when Riyan Parag saved a boundary by diving but he fumed at his teammate Devdutt Padikkal for not collecting and throwing the ball swiftly.

Here is the video of the incident:

While some praised Riyan for his energy, the majority expressed their unhappiness over his behaviour and attitude. This is not the first time that Riyan Parag has been slammed by netizens, earlier he got into fight with Harshal Patel and mocked umpires. Even former Aussie cricketer Matthew Hayden was not happy with Riyan Parag’s behaviour when he mocked the umpires.

Check out some of the selected reactions

As far as the match is concerned, the toss was won by GT and it asked RR to bat first. RR managed to put up a good total of 188/6 with the help of Jos Buttler’s 89 runs (56 balls, 12 fours & 2 sixes) and skipper Sanju Samson’s 47 runs (26 balls, 5 fours & 3 sixes). Though GT lost opener Wriddhiman Saha quite early for duck, Shubman Gill (35 runs, 21 balls, 5 fours & 1 six) and Matthew Wade (35 runs, 30 balls, 6 fours) stabilized the innings, it was David Miller who ensured that his team went home as a winner. The GT skipper Hardik Pandya also made a useful contribution as he scored 40 runs not out (27 balls, 5 fours).

Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants will clash against each other in the eliminator today which is also going to be played at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.

What is your take on Riyan Parag’s antics?

Amazon Sells 6 Buckets For Rs 26K & 2 Mugs For Rs 10K After Heavy Discounts, Twitter Goes WTF

There have been instances when we have seen luxury brands selling their products at exorbitant prices, for example, recently we informed you about the worn-out and dirty sneakers which were getting sold for whopping Rs. 48K by Balenciaga or Zara selling a lungi (which is easily available for Rs. 100-200) at a price of Rs. 6K or a Rs. 66K folding chair bag which can store just nothing and the list is very long.

There are many other examples to prove that luxury fashion brands charge insane amounts for their products but can you ever think that a set of 6 plastic buckets can be sold for Rs. 25,999 and that too after a discount of 28 percent. Yes, you read that right! Even more amazingly, the maximum retail price of this set is shown as Rs. 35,900 and it was available on the portal of e-commerce giant Amazon.

If this was not enough, 2 plastic mugs were getting sold at a huge price of Rs. 9,914 after applying a discount of 55 percent.

Earlier the plastic bucket was shown unavailable, though it has a review in which the online user sarcastically praised the bucket a lot and goes on to say that it is so good that it should have been priced at Rs. 99,999.

Well, the products have been listed on Amazon but this is not the company’s fault completely as it is the duty of the seller or vendor to list products and give details about it. Presently, the products have been removed from the site and the Amazon customer care has also ensured the Twitter user that they will look into the matter.

The Internet is certainly a funny place, what do you say?

Sachin Tendulkar Breaks Silence On Arjun Not Getting Chance To Play For MI In Two IPL Seasons

The IPL 2022 is close to its end as we already know that the new IPL team Gujarat Titans is the first finalist of the tournament and very soon we will also come to know about the second finalist as the eliminator will be played today between Royal Challengers Bangalore and the new IPL team Lucknow Super Giants. The winner of today’s match will be playing against Rajasthan Royals in the second qualifier and then we will get our second finalist.

However, the two teams which are the most successful teams of the league had a disastrous campaign and leave aside winning the IPL 2022, they couldn’t even manage to qualify for the play-offs. Yes, we are talking about Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians, while the former has won the tournament four times, the latter has taken the trophy home 5 times. Whereas CSK is sitting at the ninth position, MI is at the bottom of the table but apart from its performance, the Mumbai team is getting slammed for one more reason and that is not giving a chance to Arjun Tendulkar to play in the IPL.

Arjun Tendulkar, son of the legendary former Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, is with MI for the last two years but didn’t get the chance to make his debut in the league till date. Arjun was purchased by MI last year for Rs. 20 lakhs and the franchise once again bought him in the mega-auction for the IPL 2022 for Rs. 30 lakhs. In the IPL 2022, MI played 22 cricketers but Arjun Tendulkar was not played despite the fact that after the team’s chances of entering the play-offs became nil, the skipper Rohit Sharma stated that they would now like to have a look at the future by giving opportunities to the young cricketers.

Many cricket fans were hoping that Arjun Tendulkar would at least get to play one or two matches for the team but it didn’t happen and the general opinion was that why MI didn’t release Arjun if it was not willing to play him.

Now the former Indian cricketer and Arjun’s father Sachin Tendulkar has broken his silence on this matter and he spoke about it in a show SachInsight. When Sachin was asked whether he would have liked to see Arjun play in the IPL 2022, Little Master said what he thinks or feels has no importance because the season has already finished. He further says that he always tells his son that his path is going to be challenging and difficult, adding that Arjun has chosen cricket because he loves it, so he should keep on working hard and the results will surely come.

Sachin Tendulkar has been associated with MI as a mentor and he has also made it clear that he plays no role in the selection of the team, he leaves it to the team management and this is how it has worked till now.

Arjun Tendulkar has played for Mumbai at domestic level and his performance has been decent. However, now even few former cricketers have started questioning as to when Arjun Tendulkar will get to make his IPL debut.

“I’d Have Scored 10K+ Test Runs Had I Not Been Dropped,” Sehwag Says He Was Hurt When Dropped

Virender Sehwag, the former Indian cricketer, is one of the best batsmen of all times and he was a nightmare for the bowlers of his time because of his explosive style of batting. Viru paaji, as his fans love to call him is also very active on social media networks and netizens just love his unique and witty style of offering birthday wishes to his friends, teammates and other people from the cricket fraternity.

Virender Sehwag made his international debut in ODIs in the year 1999 but for his test debut he had to wait for almost 2 years as he played his first test match in 2001 against South Africa in Bloemfontein and it was certainly a great one as he scored a century in this match. In his 15 yrs of international career, Virender Sehwag played 251 ODIs and scored 8273 runs and 19 T20Is and scored 394 runs. As far as the purest form of cricket is concerned, Viru paaji played 104 test matches and scored 8586 runs which makes him India’s fifth highest run-scorer in tests. However during an interview, Sehwag stated that he would have crossed 10K mark if he had not been dropped for almost a year in 2007-08.

While speaking on a show, Virender Sehwag who was the vice-captain of the side at that time said that suddenly he got to realize he was not in the test team and it really hurt him a lot. He added that he would have ended his career with more than 10,000 runs if he had not been dropped for that period. After the 2006-07 tour of South Africa, Sehwag was dropped from the test team, Rahul Dravid was the skipper at that time and Nawab of Najafgarh even thought of taking retirement after getting dropped but Sachin Tendulkar stopped him from taking this step.

In December 2007 just before the tour to Australia, the selectors decided to call Virender Sehwag back in the team as Gautam Gambhir was advised three weeks rest due to an injury. It was a surprise for Viru as he was not even in the list of 24-probables for the tour.

Though he didn’t play the first two test matches yet before the third test match, the then skipper Anil Kumble promised him that if he scored a fifty in the practice match, he would be in the playing XI. India won the third test match which was played at Perth, Sehwag helped his team in winning the match by scoring at a high rate. However, it was in the fourth test match that he announced his return with a bang as he scored 63 in the first innings and 151 in the second innings.

Sehwag stated that those 60 runs were the toughest of his career because he was doing it to repay the faith that Anil Kumble showed in him and the explosive batter also didn’t want to give anyone a chance to question Anil Kumble as to why he selected him (Viru) for the Australian tour. After the match, Anil Kumble promised Viru that he would not be dropped until he (Kumble) was the skipper of the test team.

Virender Sehwag added that it is the confidence of the captain that a player wants the most and in his initial days, he got it from the Prince of Kolkata, Sourav Ganguly and in the later days he got it from Anil Kumble.

We still miss watching him smashing the ball to all the corners of the field!
