    Gone are the days when Indian cricketers were mocked for their poor fitness which caused sloppiness on the field. The current lot of Indian players are known worldwide for their incredible fitness.
    Earlier there used to be one or two players who were known for their athletic abilities but now the situation has changed and almost every single player is a fitness freak.
    © Reuters
    Apart from honing their primary skills, it’s the need of the hour that players spend a considerable amount of time working on their bodies. Today, they are more cautious of what they eat and in what quantity.

    All this increased self awareness and the improved fitness levels have helped the Indian players take their game to the next level.
    View this post on Instagram
    With this improved fitness, the fans had hoped that the players would be able to play on a consistent basis without getting injured but it seems as if the players have become more susceptible to injuries – Deepak Chahar and Suryakumar Yadav are the living proof of it.
    Both Chahar and Suryakumar have been ruled out of the upcoming three-match T20I series against Sri Lanka. They both played in the just-concluded T20I series against the West Indies, which India won 3-0.
    Chahar had injured his right quadriceps during the third and the final T20I, while Suryakumar suffered a hairline fracture during fielding in the same game.
    UPDATE : Deepak Chahar and Suryakumar Yadav ruled out of @Paytm #INDvSL T20I Series. #TeamIndia

    More Details
    — BCCI (@BCCI) February 23, 2022
    “Deepak sustained a right quadriceps injury during bowling while Suryakumar suffered a hairline fracture during a fielding attempt in the third and final T20I against the West Indies in Kolkata on Sunday. They will now head to the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru for further management of their injuries,” the BCCI said in a statement, released on their official website.
    Both these players played a key role as India registered a clean sweep over the Windies and were expected to be vital cogs in Rohit Sharma’s armoury in the upcoming series against the Island Nation.

    But now their injuries have forced the team management to look for alternate plans. Given India’s massive bench strength, finding an ideal replacement won’t be that difficult of a task but it would surely hamper the continuity which they wanted to achieve going into the T20 World Cup later this year.
    After witnessing so many injury issues in the last few months, the fans have every right to be worried. Taking to the micro-blogging site, some supporters raised questions on players’ fitness regime and wondered if it was worthwhile to spend so much time in the gym, if their bodies were so fragile.
    Jayda fitness badhane ke karan ye sab hota hai bhai kam kar doge to ye sab nahi hota hai
    Ye fracture (hairline fracture)caused by excessive running on pressure on the bone
    Aur details google par dekh lo ptaa chal jayega mujhe itna hi pata hai
    — Vikash (@Vikash18917632) February 22, 2022Yar ye aaj kl players 2 match khelte nhi ki injured ho jate.
    Serious issue hai yar ye. Australia test series se chal rha ye injury ka kam.
    — Ankush (@Sinshadarsh) February 22, 2022fir koi injured
    — Aditya (@TheExCricketer) February 23, 2022Abe yarr jo aacha khelta hai usse injury ho jati hai
    — Tanmay Upadhyay (@lmTanmay74) February 22, 2022Too many injuries for India
    — AN (@zzinda22) February 22, 202210 years ago, players would play 50-80 consecutive matches before missing a rare match for injury. Now we see it after every 10 matches... and from beginners who aren't even playing all the three formats.
    — _Naman Garg_ (@beingnamang) February 23, 2022Injuries have always been a part and parcel of a professional athlete’s life. No matter how fit they are, playing sport at the highest level, they are bound to get injured. They can’t do anything about it. They just have to accept it and live on with it.
    One of the main reasons why so many cricketers are getting injured these days is due to their congested calendar. It doesn’t allow them the time they need to recuperate.

    Rather than blaming players’ fitnes ethics, fans must realise if it was not for their fitness, many of these injuries could have been worse.

    Wicket-keeper Wriddhiman Saha, who was recently dropped from India’s Test squad ahead of the upcoming series against Sri Lanka, has been the talk of the town for the last few days.
    Ever since he posted the screenshots of threat messages he received from a “so-called respected journalist”, he started receiving moral support from the whole cricket community.
    © Reuters
    In the last two days, the whole country has demanded him to reveal the name of the journalist so that the BCCI could decide the future course of action against.

    After all of my contributions to Indian cricket..this is what I face from a so called “Respected” journalist! This is where the journalism has gone. pic.twitter.com/woVyq1sOZX
    — Wriddhiman Saha (@Wriddhipops) February 19, 2022
    However, Saha has ignored all their requests and announced that he won’t be revealing the name of the person on the “grounds of humanity” because it’s against his moral values and he doesn't want to end his career.
    2/3- My nature isnt such that I will harm anyone to the extent of ending someone’s career. So on grounds of humanity looking at his/her family, I am not exposing the name for the time being. But if any such repetition happens, I will not hold back.
    — Wriddhiman Saha (@Wriddhipops) February 22, 2022
    When he put out a tweet announcing his decision, everyone assumed that the journalist must have tendered his apologies to the keeper only then he would have agreed to conceal his identity.
    But according to the wicket-keeper, he hasn't received any apology from the said person. In fact, after the person was exposed on social media, he hasn’t gotten in touch with him.
    © Twitter BCCI
    “The said journalist has neither got in touch with me nor has he apologised,” Saha told Zee News in an exclusive interview.

    “I am hurt with the message of the journalist. Neither have I ever behaved badly with any journalist nor have they misbehaved with me. But this was uncalled for. I wanted to expose him so that people know that the world of journalism has such people,” he added.
    © Twitter BCCI
    After he was left out of the red-ball squad, the 37-year-old keeper had publicly revealed the difficult conversation he had with the head coach Rahul Dravid about his future in the team.

    The right-handed batter had even made public the WhatsApp message he got from the BCCI chief Sourav Ganguly last year, after his knock against New Zealand in the Kanpur Test. He had claimed that while praising him for his knock, Dada had assured him that he won’t lose his place in the team till the time he was at the helm.
    © Twitter BCCI
    But the biggest talking point was his tweet wherein, without taking any name, he had called out the journalist for threatening him for an interview.

    Bhai ab to mamla khatam ho gya
    Tu dharmaveer bhi ban gya naam na reveal krke
    Ab to rona band kr de
    — Rakesh (@_Centurion_153) February 23, 2022Ab ye konsa rona hai be. Really saha is doing no good ,should end this
    — S A K E T (@sxkett) February 23, 2022Saha ka Roz ka
    Rona shuru
    — Rakshit thukral (@Viratkafan23) February 23, 2022Saha.. Please stop this game.. or book a Bigg Boss ticket. You will get enough fame and Controversy there.
    — Amit Joshi (@iOnlyAJ) February 23, 2022This is honestly speaking all drama created by the player and journalists just to stay in the limelight for few days and everything will go into the grave after few days Just creating a hype because saha didn’t get a chance in his last few days. Seems all drama right from d start
    — Amit Khetan (@amitkhetan2804) February 23, 2022Enough of sympathy with Saha now, this is getting beyond. If you have the courage, tell the name to everyone. Else, just keep quiet and don’t make drama and gain sympathy out of this.
    — Raj Kumar (@RajKumar7126) February 23, 2022No condemnation is enough for the journalist’s behaviour but the majority of the fans said they’ve had enough of Saha’s ‘sympathy drama’. They urged him to either reveal the name or stop crying about it in every other interview. A fan even joked that the cricketer should try his luck in the ‘Bigg Boss’ house.
    © Twitter BCCI
    The fans might be upset with the cricketer but by not naming the person in public, he has definitely shown a bigger heart. 

    But it doesn’t feel like the culprit has any qualms about the messages. If the person was really ashamed, then an apology would have come by now.

    When it comes to underrated fitness icons in Bollywood, the name that perhaps belongs to the absolute top of the list is that of Karan Singh Grover. He has been one of the fittest men in Bollywood since decades now (remember Dill Mill Gayye?), but since he maintains a low profile, tabloids usually don't dedicate headlines to him, despite him deserving every bit of the attention because of his hard work and consistency.
    View this post on Instagram
    Karan Singh Grover and Bipasha Basu perhaps make the fittest couple in Bollywood, who have been maintaining their incredible fitness levels without skipping a beat - since fitness was something that only the truly dedicated dabbled in. Here are 6 times Karan Singh Grover proved that no one in Bollywood even comes close to him when it comes to raw strength as well as skills - let alone his fitness level.

    There aren't many star Bollywood weddings that have gone wrong much worse than the one between actress Karisma Kapoor and Indian businessman Sunjay Kapur.

    The two got married in some fashion back in 2003, however, what happened after was nothing but a disaster.
    © BCCL
    Reports of continuous assaults and harassments from Sunjay on to Karisma were rife at the time of the divorce, which was said to be very ugly back in 2014.

    If you didn't know already, before being married to Sunjay, Karisma was reported to get married in Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan's family, to Abhishek Bachchan.
    However, it was reported that it didn't go ahead due to unknown reasons, with Karisma then tying the knot with Sunjay in what was a grand ceremony.
    During the time of the court proceedings during the divorce, it was reported that there were a lot of crazy and scary details of what went down during the marriage from Karisma's camp.
    Karisma shares two children with ex-husband Sunjay named Samaira and Kiaan.
    © BCCL
    However, one reported incident that occurred during the time she was pregnant is quite crazy.

    It is already known that Karisma accused Sunjay of misbehaving with her several times during their marriage but this particular incident is very scary.
    It was reported that Karisma was gifted a dress by Sunjay's mother, who was of course her mother-in-law at the time.
    Now, with Karisma being pregnant at the time, she couldn't fit into it.
    However, what soon followed was beyond anyone's imagination.
    According to reports, Sunjay asked his mother to slap Karisma for not fitting into the dress.
    As reported by Zoom TV, Sunjay had said at the time to his mother.
    “Why don’t you just slap her?”
    It is also reported that Karisma revealed how Sunjay's mother actually supported her son's multiple relationships.
    © Instagram/Karisma Kapoor
    Karisma is reported to say that she was okay with Sunjay living with different women while still being married to her.

    This is just one such incident with Karisma also revealing the time during their honeymoon when Sunjay tried forcing her to sleep with his friends.
    It is reported that after Karisma and Sunjay divorced each other, he moved on with his life by getting married to Priya Sachdev, with whom he shares a son.

    India registered a comprehensive win over England to clinch their fifth Under-19 World Cup title earlier this month. The Boys in Blue showed nerves of steel throughout the tournament even after losing their key players, including their skipper Yash Dhull, due to Covid. The team had to overcome various challenges on the field but their journey to the triumph off the field too was a challenging one.
    Several Indian players and staff members tested positive for Covid during the Under-19 World Cup in the Caribbean. The Indian team was forced to play a few matches without their captain Dhull and vice-captain Shaik Rasheed.
    Congratulations to India's Under-19 cricket team for winning the World Cup.

    Weeks after bringing the World Cup home, Team India's manager Lobzang G. Tenzing has opened up on the ordeal that the team had to go through in the West Indies due to lethargic authorities. 
    “Our time in Guyana was tough to say the least. When I and my colleagues were down with COVID, no medical help was provided, no doctor, no medicines. Our team physio came to our rescue. It was like a system failure."
    “In the hotel we stayed there were no separate floors for teams. We were staying on the same floor as other hotel guests. There was nobody to man the isolation period. The rooms did not have regular running water and players faced food issues," Tenzing was quoted as saying by The Indian Express.

    The tournament was held in the West Indies and Tenzing said it was not the best place to host the World Cup due to logistical challenges. 
    "It (hosting tournament in the Caribbean) poses additional logistical issues and people were lethargic,” the India Under-19 team manager added.
    Congratulations to the India team on winning the @ICC U-19 Men's World Cup for the 5th time. A truly remarkable feat & has made the country proud. I laud the Team Manager Mr. Lobzang G.

    Tenzing, who is the president of Sikkim Cricket Association, also mentioned that the facilities during the U19 World Cup were so poor that even the state associations in India would have managed to do a better job. 
    “During practice games, the stadium had no water in the washrooms. I can safely say we, state units and the BCCI do a much better job staging domestic events in a bio-secure environment,” added Tenzing.
    In a time when the whole world is battling the Covid crisis, it is sad to see that the International Cricket Council failed to offer even the basic services such as food and water to the visiting teams.

    Shakun Batra’s Gehraiyaan starring Deepika Padukone, Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ananya Panday and Dhairya Karwa is one of the most polarised films to come out of Hindi film industry in recent times. 
    While there are people who termed it an absolute classic, there are others who called it a borefest. 
    In any case, the film has become one of the most talked about on social media. And recently, an Australian journalist took to Twitter to point out a continuity error in a scene featuring Ananya Panday.

    Sharing two screenshots from the film, she mentioned, “One thing unresolved in #Gehraiyaan is how Tia’s glass transformed in this scene when she never put it down?”

    There were others who mocked the film and also Ananya Panday’s “struggle” in Bollywood.

     “Struggle of holding big glass,” one user wrote. Another tweeted, “No end to Ananya Pandey's struggles! Jeez”.

    Alia Bhatt-starrer Gangubai Kathiawadi, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, is among the most-hyped films of 2022. Slated to hit the theatres on February 25, the movie also features Shantanu Maheshwari, Ajay Devgn, Vijay Raaz among others in important roles. Its trailer and songs have received a favorable response from moviegoers, who are eagerly waiting to witness Bhansali's magic on the big screen once again. 
    View this post on Instagram
    As everyone is waiting for the film's release, Gangubai Kathaiwadi is making headlines for several wrong reasons too. While Gangubai's son recently made his displeasure clear for portraying her mother as a prostitute on screen, Kangana Ranaut too objected to a viral video.  
    In the clip, a little influencer Hariti, who's a child actor, is seen imitating 'Gangubai' while enacting Alia's dialogues and mannerisms from the film. The video went viral and Alia too shared it on her social media account. Watch it here:
    View this post on Instagram
    Taking a dig at the Highway star's promotional antics, Kangana slammed the little girl's parents who allowed her to do such things. She said, "Should this child imitate a *** worker with a beedi in her mouth and crude and obscene dialogues? Look at her body language, is it ok to sexualize her at this age? There are hundreds of other children who are being used similarly". 
    View this post on Instagram
    Alia has now finally reacted to the video and Kangana's criticism. The actress stated that it was made in zest and she did not find it offensive. Talking to India.com, she said, "I thought it was very cute. I am assuming that it’s not done without the supervision of an elder. If the elder, who’s hopefully, her mother or father or sister or a loved one, is okay with it, then I don’t think we should have any issues with it as people". 
    We wonder what Kangana has to say about Alia's reaction. 
    For the unversed, Gangubai Kathiawadi is based on a chapter from Hussain Zaidi's book Mafia Queens of Mumbai. Alia is playing the role of Gangubai, a gun-wielding brothel owner who was among the most popular and powerful in Kamathipura during the 1960s. Reportedly, at an early age, she was sold into prostitution and became popular in the city as some of the most notorious criminals were her clients. 
    Here's the trailer of Gangubai Kathiawadi:
