    After England suffered a humiliating 4-0 Ashes defeat Down Under, the demands of making a few changes to their red-ball set up started to grow in their cricketing circles.
    Some experts had even suggested that England should take away the Test captaincy from Joe Root and hand it over to someone like Ben Stokes going forward. The argument was that Root lacked the idea to take this team forward and it was time for them to shake their whole system.
    ECB took a bold step by axing James Anderson and Stuart Broad from their Test set-up.#Cricket #CricTracker #England #JimmyAnderson #StuartBoard #WIvENG pic.twitter.com/iqdW6MkTJo

    When the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced their squad for the Test series in the Caribbean, it was clear that they had acted on some of those growing demands
    While some changes were on the expected lines, like the ouster of players like Jos Buttler and Haseeb Hameed, nobody in their wildest of their dreams would have thought they would drop their all-time leading fast bowlers in Test cricket – James Anderson and Stuart Broad.
    The door is still open for Anderson and Broad to make a return in the summer, but that decision will be made by the person who is appointed as England's permanent head coach https://t.co/0ZVplOpof9 pic.twitter.com/eLfj91FohV

    The decision took the whole cricket fraternity by surprise as people couldn’t understand the rationale behind dropping their two old guards – who had done exceedingly well in the Ashes when compared to other teammates.
    It was England’s ordinary batting that led them down in Australia. Hence, it came as a huge surprise when the England selectors dropped their two bowling spearheads for the upcoming series against the Windies.
    Just checking the England bowling averages from the Ashes…

    Seems like another inspired selection decision #anderson #broad pic.twitter.com/jrvYulgkQM
    — Peter Smith (@psmithXI) February 8, 2022Jimmy Anderson averages 23 in the Ashes and 22 since the start of 2020. He’s been dropped when there are no real signs that he’s a diminished force.

    Yes, he’s 39 but this feels a textbook case of dropping bowlers for batting failings https://t.co/vT6jIidArc
    — Tim Wigmore (@timwig) February 8, 2022they knew that Anderson and Broad were making the rest of the team look bad so they’ve levelled the playing field and broken the hearts of the nation pic.twitter.com/k9DgCLm8AI
    — Abi Slade (@abi_slade) February 8, 2022Reasons to pick Anderson and Broad:

    - They are the best players
    - Series player with Dukes ball
    - Seam dominates in West Indies
    - Provide stability whilst the batting gets revamped

    Reasons not to pick Anderson and Broad:

    - You are an idiot
    — Jack Hope (@thecricketpod) (@JackHope0) February 8, 2022If the England selectors could convince everyone that Anderson and Broad don’t make our best bowling group, then fair enough. Problem is… They can’t!
    — Fabian Cowdrey (@fkcowdrey) February 8, 2022Soon the fans from all across the globe started sharing the bowling stats of both the speedsters on the microblogging site.
    While the whole world ridiculed the ECB’s decision, former England skipper Michael Vaughan said that he understood why the selectors made this decision.
    The England legend opined that the move showed they wanted to “create a culture away from Broad and Anderson” going forward.

    “England want to build a new culture. That’s what has led them to the huge decision to drop Jimmy Anderson and Stuart Broad from the squad to the West Indies. They're trying to create a culture away from Broad and Anderson,” Vaughan wrote in his column for The Telegraph as quoted by Hindustan Times.

    “Sometimes high-class senior bowlers can be an issue in the side. That's not saying they’re not good people - they are - but you sometimes need to move forward. That sends a strong message to the team,” wrote the former England captain.

    “It doesn’t mean it’s the end for Anderson and Broad. They might well play in the summer. Strauss will know that he’ll get Anderson and Broad with a point to prove and the Dukes ball at home, where they can still be lethal. One of them could even play in the 2023 Ashes, which they would have hoped to be their final series.

    “But there are never any guarantees in sport. We may now never see Broad or Anderson playing for England again. And you could argue that if they do return there’s a problem and it means those who’ve got the chance haven’t capitalised,” said Vaughan.

    Based on their performance there was no way one could justify the axing of the two veterans. After the manner in which they were humiliated by their traditional rivals, the ECB perhaps was a bit under pressure to show their public that they were taking steps to make things right.

    To me, this decision is nothing but ECB’s damage control.

    When was the last time the Khans came together in a single frame? Most people would say never but not many remember that Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Saif Ali Khan together made a cameo appearance in Deepak Tijori's film Pehla Nasha (1993).

    The cameo had the actors along with Rahul Roy together in a scene plugging in their respective movies while talking to Deepak. Rahul Roy said "Iss Baazigar se toh har kisiko Aashiqui hojayegi. Then an excited Saif Ali quips, "Isi tarah acche filmo ki Parampara banaye rakhna”. SRK was the star of Baazigar, Rahul starred in in Aashiqui, and Saif acted in Parampara.

    Next Shah Rukh says "Tumne toh Chamatkar kardiya, Gentleman. Main toh tumhara Deewana hogaya.” If you jog your memory then Chamatkar, Deewana and Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman were all Shah Rukh's films.

    At the end of the clip, we see Aamir saying his famous dialogue, "Lekin lekin lekin Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar." Pehla Nasha was the debut movie of actor Deepak Tijori and also marked the debut of director Ashutosh Gowariker. The movie also starred Pooja Bhatt, Raveena Tandon and Paresh Rawal in lead roles. This is also the only film that has Aamir and SRK in the same frame. Do you remember this movie by any chance?

    It's almost a part of our Indian culture that Bollywood stars are given a big status in the country.

    They appear to be way larger than life, and we obviously love watching them in movies on television as they offer us an escape from our often mundane day-to-day lives.
    The celebrity culture in India is, of course, quite different as it's clearly very difficult for film stars to actually visit any place in public without being mobbed.

    Now, while almost all actors love the attention given to them due to their work and fame, things can often go out of hand if fans overstep their boundaries.

    Earlier, Attack actor John Abraham had revealed an incident of a creepy fan, who apparently wanted his skin under her nails.
    Well, looks like this is something that happened with Bollywood and Hollywood star Priyanka Chopra.

    Priyanka, who was last seen in the Keanu Reeves film The Matrix Resurrections, was actually shooting for a film back in 2015 when a strange incident made her lose her cool.

    According to reports, a fan apparently got way too close to her and actually grabbed her arms while trying to get a selfie clicked.
    While it is obviously natural for fans to click photos with their stars, it's quite not okay for them to invade their personal space and touch them.
    This is where Priyanka rightfully got uncomfortable.

    While speaking about the incident, Priyanka revealed how she got scared and slapped him.

    As reported by PTI, Priyanka said, “I slap a lot. Once a fan misbehaved with me. I don’t know if he was a fan. I came out of my trailer when I was shooting for Anjaana Anjaani. He just came and held my arms. I am very good at taking pictures and everything but I don’t like being touched physically. So, he just held my hand and started asking for pictures. I got really scared. So, I grabbed his collar and slapped him. Then I got so scared that I ran away.”
    Now, while we don't know other details of the incident, it's sure a lesson for people to be careful of someone else's personal space.
    Priyanka is currently residing in the United States along with her husband and musician Nick Jonas, with who the actress just welcomed a baby girl through surrogacy.

    “We are overjoyed to confirm that we have welcomed a baby via surrogate. We respectfully ask for privacy during this special time as we focus on our family. Thank you so much.” read their joint statement earlier.

    On the work front, Priyanka will next be seen in a film called Ending Things, alongside Marvel star Anthony Mackie, who was recently seen in the Disney+ TV series Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

    You know how there comes this age when every other kid you know suddenly becomes obsessed with their bodies? 
    Girls start getting curious about developing breasts and knowing more about their vaginas, while men are busy exploring their penises to know just how it works and eventually, to talk about its size.
    From feet to hands, to even the distance between your elbow to your wrist, there have been A LOT of myths about the size of a ***** being equivalent to one or the other body part. 
    However, there seldom came any proof to substantiate such a theory.

    Those who had longer fingers boasted about having a larger ***** and as did the men who had longer feet. To each his own was a profitable and uncontestable philosophy then, but things seemed to have changed now.

    A new study has revealed that the size of the ***** may have a directly proportional correlation with the size of one’s nose. 

    Published in the medical journal Basic and Clinical Andrology, the researchers of the study have claimed that men with larger noses were found to have a ‘stretched penile length’ of at least 5.3 inches, while men with smaller noses had a ***** length of only 4.1 inches long.
    The conclusion was drawn after taking a look at the dead corpses of 126 men within three days of their death, which allowed them to measure different body parts as part of their research.
    And while no link was found between any other body part, the researchers were astonished to see a directly proportional relation between the size of the nose and that of the *****. 
    It concluded, “The fact that nose size is related to SPL indicates that penile length may not be determined by age, height or bodyweight but has already been determined by birth.”
    The study, for now, was conducted on the cadavers of Japanese men and, still needs to be taken a look at to get to conclusive answers, but until then, one thing is for sure, and it is that your face lets on way more than you ever imagined or wanted it to! 
    Oh, that and that suddenly, Pinnochio became the most desirable Disney character ever!

    Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has been in the news ever since he was snapped at legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar's funeral on February 6. A video went viral from the last rites ceremony in which SRK and his manager Pooja Dadlani were seen bidding their last goodbye to the 'Nightingale of India'. While offering prayers, in the clip, the actor also blows duas, which a section of social media users mistook as spitting and trolled him.

    However, SRK fans and various celebrities including Urmila Matondkar, Swara Bhakser among others came out in the superstar’s support and made it clear that he removed his mask just to blow into the air, which is a part of Islamic ritual after reading a ‘dua’. While Shah Rukh Khan is yet to react, Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut has now reacted to the controversy and has supported the Swades star.

    "It is shameful the way people are trolling him (Shah Rukh Khan). Some people are doing politics in the name of religion even on the sad occurrence of Lata ji's demise. We all know who these people are. Nobody needs to be told," Sanjay Raut was quoted as saying by ANI.  
    Recently, an old SRK video too went viral on the internet in which he is shown discussing his vision of India. In the clip, SRK recounted how in school, students had to prepare an essay on 'My Country'.  It was incorrect, in his perspective, because we are Indian citizens who do not own the country.

    On the Bollywood front, the actor was last seen in Aanand L Rai's Zero co-starring Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma. The film was released in 2018 and turned out to be a box office disappointment. He is currently shooting for Siddharth Anand's Pathan which marks his comeback after a gap of around four years. Reportedly, he has also signed films with Rajkumar Hirani and Atlee. However, an official announcement is still awaited.

    Robert Pattinson is the newest Batman in town with his upcoming film releasing on March 4, 2022.

    The English actor has, of course, been a part of many other successful super film franchises like the Harry Potter series, the Twilight saga, and now, even has a film with Christopher Nolan.
    This proves that he has more than enough pedigree to put on the iconic Batman cowl, which has been worn by some of the finest actors in the business before him.
    Now, ahead of the release of his film, Robert revealed some amazing details about the new Matt Reeves film.

    The actor spoke on how the new Batman film will be very different from the earlier ones as it is based on a premise that is very unique in itself.

    Speaking about the first shot of the film, Robert told GQ, “I watched a rough cut of the movie by myself. And the first shot is so jarring from any other Batman movie that it’s just kind of a totally different pace.”
    Robert even spoke on how the movie will actually see Batman go into the roots of being a detective, something that Robert wasn't aware of earlier.

    “It was what Matt was saying from the first meeting I had with him: ‘I want to do a ’70s noir detective story, like “The Conversation.”‘ And I kind of assumed that meant the mood board or something, the look of it. But from the first shot, it’s, ‘Oh, this actually is a detective story.’

    “I feel like an idiot because I didn’t even know that Batman was ‘the world’s greatest detective’; I hadn’t heard that in my life before—but it really plays. Just ’cause there’s a lot of stuff where he’s in amongst the cops. Normally, when you see Batman he arrives and beats people up. But he’s having conversations, and there are emotional scenes between them, which I don’t think have been in any of the other movies.”

    Robert also admitted one thing that he found iconic about Christian Bale's Batman, with the Hollywood star acting as the Dark Knight in Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy.

    "I think Christian Bale did just such a, I mean, it's so kind of iconic, his voice. It's almost impossible to not do that. It's really hard to get into, an artificially lower register," said Robert.

    Robert also shared how the shoot for Batman took a toll on him both physically and mentally, “And the nature of the shoot was so kind of insular, always shooting at night, just really dark all the time, and I felt very much alone. Even just being in the suit all the time. You're not really allowed out of the studio with the suit on, so I barely knew what was going on at all outside.”
    Once the movie wrapped up with the shoot, it still took Robert time to come out of the skin of Bruce Wayne. “I mean, I was really, really, really dead afterwards. I just looked at a photo of myself from April and I looked green,” he said.
    The actor is set to bring a completely new take on Batman with the movie said to be a lot darker than earlier versions.
    Well, we sure can't wait for it!
