Wickets Hitting

What are you smoking, Sai Pallavi? What next? Are you going to say that Asaram Bapu is not so bad either because he, just like Ravana, is also a lord Shiva worshipper? Expected much better from someone with an MBBS degree. She should spend less time building a fake image of innocence through her PR team and more time actually studying Ravana and his history

🚨Ravichandran Ashwin on How Abhishek Sharma Changed India’s T20 Batting Template From Personal Milestones to Fearless Cricket "Abhishek Sharma has never played just to secure his place in the team. Traditionally, Indian batters focused on preserving their wickets, maintaining their averages and strike rates, and achieving personal milestones such as fifties and hundreds. I am not saying that the way batters played in the past was wrong. They grew up in that culture, were moulded by that system and played according to the approach they had been taught. But Abhishek Sharma has changed the batting template of India's T20 team"

🔵Vimal Kumar: When Ishan Kishan returns to the playing XI for the next match, who would you drop? 🔵Ravichandran Ashwin: That is very clear. There is absolutely no confusion here. You people are unnecessarily creating confusion. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is not the first-choice player for the Indian T20 team. Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma are the ones who should open the innings

🚨Dinesh Karthik Does Not Find It Tricky to Decide Who Should Make Way for Ishan Kishan 💬 "If everyone is available for the next game vaibhav sooryavanshi has to wait his turn,these three [ abhishek sharma, sanju samson. ishan kishan] have been extraordinary . As bad as it sounds but it is a fact"

The way New Zealand played today is exactly how India used to play before Gautam Gambhir took over. One batter would play deep and the team would often struggle to even reach a par score, let alone go above par. Since Gambhir became India's T20 coach, he has completely changed the team's mindset. India now plays fearless, aggressive cricket regardless of the pitch, without batters worrying about personal milestones or playing selfish cricet. History will be kinder to this man. 🫡

Neha Kakkar husband,Rohanpreet Singh, is the pro max version of Rashmika Mandanna. How can you do all this in your full senses? That is not love, that is a 7 years younger husband being completely brainwashed

That is a pretty long two cents for someone who claims not to care. Eight whole pages? 😭 Typical behaviour of someone who looks back at her past and tries to convince herself she had self-respect back then. This is nothing but damage control, and it is not going to change anything. You are blinded by love right now, so you are obviously not going to see things for what they are. Maybe you will understand someday

A mild, low grade right abductor strain can become pain free within 2–3 days, but being pain free and being match fit are two completely different things. He still needs to run, sprint, and perform other cricket-specific movements before he can be declared match fit. The agenda being pushed by these two rupee trolls and two year banned franchise is embarrassing. They are spreading the narrative that Ishan Kishan is fit and has been deliberately benched. Get a life, bruh. They think they are supporting Vaibhav Sooryavanshi by spreading this toxicity, but all they are doing is making people hate the kid. He does not need toxic fans like you. If Vaibhav knew the kind of nonsense you were spreading in his name, he probably would not even want people like you supporting him

Vijay Deverakonda did not pull Rashmika Mandanna,she was the one more interested in him. In fact, he was not at all serious about the relationship, as he was also dating a European woman at that time. Only after Pushpa became a blockbuster, her stardom skyrocketed while his films kept flopping, did he start taking her seriously.Tbh, had he delivered back to back hits, I doubt he would have stuck around.

✡️When Gautam Gambhir Opposed tainted cricketer Ajay Jadeja’s Appointment and Got Him Removed as Delhi Coach In September 2015 ,Three government-appointed nominees overseeing DDCA affairs proposed and approved Ajay Jadeja as Delhi Ranji Trophy coach, triggering chaos within the association. Gautam Gambhir strongly opposed the appointment because he was never in favour of cricketers with a tainted past returning to the game. He reportedly threatened to quit Delhi cricket and pushed for Vijay Dahiya, who was also working as an assistant coach at KKR. The timing was crucial, as the results of the DDCA sports committee elections were about to be announced. The committee handled grassroots cricket, club affairs and domestic team selections. The Vinod Tihara faction, which backed Gambhir, won the election and subsequently gave him significant authority over team selection, with Tihara publicly declaring him the undisputed captain and the key decision-maker in building the squad. With Gambhir firmly backed by the new administration, Jadeja's position became increasingly difficult to sustain. Within a month of his appointment, Jadeja resigned, and Vijay Dahiya took over as Delhi coach. Following his resignation, Jadeja said, "My opinions or inputs do not matter to DDCA"

🚨Ravichandran Ashwin not happy with Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s bowling pace 💬 " Bhuvi hasn’t been executing well in certain areas. You know I backed him and wanted him to make a comeback, but if he bowls at 129–130 kmph, it’s going to be difficult. He has the skill to swing the ball both ways, but he needs to bowl at 134–135–136 kmph. At that pace, his impact would double. That’s simply not happening right now. I felt he was bowling a little short of pace"

🚨Ravi Shastri Impressed by Nitish Kumar Reddy Progress 💬 "He is much better than where he was six months ago, eight months ago. His batting talent has always been there. He has a Test hundred at the MCG. He has what it takes to bat lower down the order, and he has the temperament. So, it is good to see him coming along."

🚨Amit Mishra reveals the humble side of his friendship with Gautam Gambhir 💬 " Gautam Gambhir is my friend because he has never shown off his wealth. He used to sit with me in my Alto, my first car. At a time when he could easily have travelled in a BMW or Mercedes, he would simply tell me, Pick me up in your car and we’ll go to practice together. That’s the kind of person he has always been. He never showed off his wealth, and that’s why he has always been a good friend of mine"

✡️How Gautam Gambhir and Virender Sehwag’s Friendship Fell Apart Gautam Gambhir and Virender Sehwag were once close friends, but a 2018 confrontation over Manoj Prabhakar changed their relationship forever. The DDCA, then headed by Rajat Sharma, had formed a cricket committee to oversee Delhi cricket and appoint coaches and selectors. Sehwag, Aakash Chopra and Rahul Sanghvi were committee members, while Gambhir, then an active player, was a special invitee. The trouble began during Prabhakar’s phone interview for Delhi’s bowling coach position. Gambhir questioned him about the match-fixing allegations. Sehwag reportedly tried to intervene, but the argument escalated, and the two had to be separated. Sehwag wanted the committee to formally record his objection, claiming Gambhir was using the interview to settle personal scores with Prabhakar. The controversy deepened tensions within the committee, whose members eventually resigned.Gambhir, meanwhile, took to Twitter to reiterate his zero-tolerance policy towards corruption, amid claims that his opposition to Prabhakar’s appointment had contributed to the resignations. The incident marked the end of Gambhir and Sehwag’s friendship. The two stopped talking, and their relationship never recovered.

Updates from India's optional practice session, which lasted around 2–2.5 hours: 🔹7 players turned up: Prince Yadav, Kuldeep Yadav, Varun Chakravarthy, Shivam Dube, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, NKR and Abhishek Sharma. 🔹Vaibhav Sooryavanshi spent more time batting against spinners than pacers, hinting at a possible role at No. 3 🔹Varun Chakravarthy was the main focus of the session, bowling under the supervision of Sairaj Bahutule. 🔹New Zealand did not practice at all.

🚨Ravichandran Ashwin on Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and why people are blaming him and Aakash Chopra over Vaibhav Sooryavanshi not getting a chance. 💬 "I still see people complaining about Vaibhav Sooryavanshi not getting opportunities. Even today, I was reading posts on social media where people were calling Aakash Chopra and Ashwin the number one culprits for not letting him play.We are not the decision-makers. I know Vaibhav is an exceptional talent, but we have played cricket ourselves, so perhaps we understand the pain another player goes through. The way Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson are batting, and the way they have performed for the Indian team, we have to give them their due as well. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi will get his time. But as long as these two are performing well, we should enjoy their batting"

🚨Ravichandran Ashwin on Naman Dhir 💬 " We have found a terrific player in Naman Dhir. The selectors' eye for talent was absolutely spot on. Look at the pressure in the final stages when Nitish Reddy came in. There was still pressure, but Naman didn't try to muscle the ball. He simply relied on his timing and played it over mid-off and cover. He could have easily attempted to hit that Matt Henry's full toss towards the leg side for a six, but instead, he just timed the ball over mid-off. That's the difference. These shots come when a batter is completely in control of his game. Just class written all over him. A class operator. I have a lot of time for Naman Dhir"

Ajay Jadeja and Madhuri Dixit were rumoured to have had a brief fling in the 90s and wanted to get married. The two met during a magazine or commercial photoshoot. At the time, Ajay was trying to make a career in Bollywood, and Madhuri reportedly tried to help him by using her contacts in the film industry. However, Ajay came from a royal family that opposed his marriage to a Bollywood actress. In the end, family pressure came between the two, and their relationship fell apart.

What a snoozefest of a Koffee with Karan episode! The promo made it seem like there would be some juicy drama, but the actual episode was a complete letdown. Barely anything interesting happened
