One of the finest spinners to play the game, Ravichandran Ashwin showed his true character as he returned to join the Indian team on Day 4 of the third Test against England, after taking a leave post conclusion of the second day due to a family emergency.

Rohit Sharma's Move Against England In Rajkot Test Is A Massive First In 'Bazball Era'

Yashasvi Jaiswal hit an unbeaten double century to help India to its biggest-ever win on Sunday, crushing England by 434 runs in the third Test to take a 2-1 lead in the series. The match in Rajkot also saw India becoming the first-ever team in the 'Bazball era' to declare their innings against England. The Bazball era is referred to as the time that started after Brendon McCullum took over as England's Test team coach in May 2022. Talking about the game, India were solid at the score of 430 for 4 with a lead of 556 runs when captain Rohit Sharma decided to declare the innings and ask England to bat. Rohit's Rajkot: 'Bazball Era' First Chasing 557 for victory, England's batting fell like a pack of cards with the loss of eight wickets in the final session to be dismissed for 122 on day four in Rajkot. Ravindra Jadeja got Mark Wood out for 33 as the final wicket -- and his fifth -- and he kissed the pitch as India registered their greatest win in terms of runs...

Mumbai Woman Flags "Brothel" Comment On Her Video, Cops Respond

A Mumbai woman has sought police help after an X user made a "kotha" (a term associated with brothels) reference to her dance video. In a post on X on Saturday, Shruti Parija alleged that she made "endless" requests to the user, Prateek Aaryan, to take down the video but he "refused". Meeting With Protesting Farmers The controversy erupted after Mr Aaryan posted a video of Ms Parija dancing at a college fest. The Indian schools and colleges are well known for organising 'sanskritik karyakram' (cultural programmes) and performances based on traditional and regional culture, but now it has become a 'kotha', he wrote on February 13. In the name of cultural events, shaking booty on item songs is all they call a cultural program. Along with the education system, the cultural system is in danger in India. What a downfall for this generation and colleges in India," Mr Aaryan added. Two days later, Ms Parija commented on the post, which has no...

Ishan Kishan Overlooks BCCI Directive, Triggers Controversy By Missing Ranji Trophy Match

India wicket-keeper batter Ishan Kishan has been in the headlines for a while because he decided to miss the Ranji Trophy in favour of personal practice, in the wake of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season. Ishan, who has been out of the India squad since withdrawing from the tour of South Africa, owing to mental fatigue, remains away from all sorts of cricketing commitments despite being urged by head coach Rahul Dravid and others in the BCCI to resume playing. Ishan misses Ranji Trophy Ishan was informed by the BCCI management to play Jharkhand's final Ranji Trophy Elite Group match against Rajasthan, starting February 16. But, the wicket-keeper batter gave that match a miss. It wasn't just him but pacer Deepak Chahar, who also has been away from cricketing action for a while, decided to overlook his Ranji Trophy commitments. A few weeks ago, reports emerged that Ishan Kishan has been training with Hardik and Krunal Pandya at the Reliance Stadium. Several reports e...

"115 Crores Frozen, Don't Have That Much": Congress On Bank Accounts Row

 The Congress today faced a temporary hurdle after the Income Tax department froze its main bank accounts, including those of the Youth Congress. However, the party swiftly challenged the move, and the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal granted relief by de-freezing the accounts until a final hearing next week. Congress: 115 Crores Frozen, Lack Funds The Congress issued a clarification stating that the party is mandated to ensure that a sum of ₹ 115 crore has to be maintained in their bank accounts. The amount has to remain untouched in compliance with the directive from the tax authorities, implying a freeze on these funds.  "This means that ₹ 115 crore have been frozen. This ₹ 115 crore is much more than we have in our current accounts," the Congress said.  In a press conference earlier today, party treasurer Ajay Maken described the move as a "disturbing blow to the democratic process". The freeze reportedly stems from a tax demand of ₹ 210 crore raised by the Income ...
