    With the Indian Premier League tournament being called off indefinitely, the next best-case scenario for the fans of the Men in Blue is to look forward to the upcoming excitement as their squad takes on Kane Williamson’s New Zealand Test side in a one-off World Test Championship final clash at the Rose Bowl Cricket Ground in England for the title.

    However, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is planning to hold international series with two countries, namely Sri Lanka and England, that are scheduled so close to each other that they might just need to make two Indian teams for the same.
    Earlier in the year, the Asia Cup was also scheduled to be held in June in Sri Lanka, and the Indian cricket board were in the middle of negotiations to allow a ‘B-String’ Indian roster to attend the tournament while the primary roster would play for the World Test Championship title and the England series which followed.
    Top Source (in TOI) said "If Asia Cup happens this year, India will have no other option but to send a second string side for the tournament".

    But with the Asia Cup postponed to 2022, and a new white-ball series against Sri Lanka made official by BCCI President Sourav Ganguly on Monday, the possibility of seeing two Team Indias at the same time are back on the table.
    Last week, the BCCI had announced the roster that will be touring England for the WTC and the red-ball series against the hosts. 
    India’s squad: Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Mayank Agarwal, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli (Captain), Ajinkya Rahane (vice-captain), Hanuma Vihari, Rishabh Pant (wicket-keeper), R. Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Washington Sundar, Jasprit Bumrah, Ishant Sharma, Mohd. Shami, Md. Siraj, Shardul Thakur, Umesh Yadav, KL Rahul (subject to fitness clearance), Wriddhiman Saha (wicket-keeper; subject to fitness clearance). 
    Standby players: Abhimanyu Easwaran, Prasidh Krishna, Avesh Khan, Arzan Nagwaswalla
    The list basically confirms the ‘A-String’ of the Men in Blue, but also sheds light on all the top-level cricketers who may be available for the second team which will play white-ball cricket against the Lions in July.

    WhatsApp announced its new privacy policy and terms of service earlier this year in January, however it was met with much criticism around the world. The policy was criticised as it suggested user data would be shared with its parent company Facebook which in turn could be used for targeted advertisements and other purposes. WhatsApp extended the deadline to accept the terms from 8th February to 15th May after it was met with much uproar.

    However, WhatsApp has not deferred the 15th May deadline which means WhatsApp users who have not accepted the new terms will not have their accounts deleted. “No accounts will be deleted on 15 May because of this update and no one in India will lose functionality of WhatsApp either. We will follow up with reminders to people over the next several weeks,” a WhatsApp spokesperson said.

    The company further clarified its position via a blog post "WhatsApp was built on a simple idea: what you share with your friends and family stays between you. This means we will always protect your personal conversations with end-to-end encryption so that neither WhatsApp nor Facebook can see these private messages.”
    However, WhatsApp is not giving up that easily and the company said that those who are yet to agree will keep receiving “persistent reminders” within the app. If users still don’t agree to the new terms, then after “a period of several weeks,” users will face “limited functionality” until they accept the new terms.

    By limited functionality, WhatsApp means users won’t be able to access their chat list, however will still be able to make and receive calls. “If you have notifications enabled, you can tap on them to read or respond to a message or call back a missed phone or video call,” WhatsApp said.

    After a few weeks of limited functionality, WhatsApp warns that “you won’t be able to receive incoming calls or notifications, and WhatsApp will stop sending messages and calls to your phone.” 
    It sure seems like WhatsApp is still forcing users to accept its new terms albeit in a more gradual manner. The company says that it won’t delete the account if you don’t accept the new privacy terms, however one has to keep in mind that an account can be deleted following 120 days of inactivity. 
    WhatsApp and Facebook’s new privacy policy will see the app share data between each other and also to and from business accounts. In addition, the companies will also collect information such as a user’s phone number, contacts, location, device details and IP Address. It is also worth pointing out that WhatsApp has a different privacy policy for Europe and a different one for the rest of the world. The company is not forcing its European users to accept the new terms and will not take any action towards users who refuse to accept the new privacy policy. 
    If you’re not keen on accepting WhatsApp’s new privacy policies, you don't need to worry as there are enough alternatives you can switch your instant messaging needs to.

    Shweta Tiwari has been in the news after she gave an interview about her two failed marriages and mentioned how ex-husband  Abhinav Kohli threatened to ruin her reputation. Their relationship had turned sour when the actress filed a case of domestic violence against Abhinav in 2017 and two years later, they got separated. The two have been accusing each other on several grounds. Just recently, Abhinav had accused her of leaving their son alone in a Mumbai hotel to participate in Khatron Ke Khiladi 11.
    Shweta’s version was completely different, however, as she told in a recent interview that she had informed Abhinav over a call that she was going to Cape Town, South Africa and that their son is safe with her mother and relatives. Shweta told Bollywood Bubble, “I had informed Abhinav Kohli over a phone call that I am going to Cape Town and that Reyansh is safe with my family. My mother, my relatives, and Palak are there to take care of him. Plus, I will always be on video calls with Reyansh in between my shoot.”
    Now, Shweta has shared video evidence to show how Abhinav physically abused her and their son Reyansh. She shared two videos proving her stance and added that her son was mentally affected by that incident. In the first clip as claimed by Shweta, Abhinav tries to take Reyansh in his arms and you can also notice that Shweta falls on the ground while Abhinav forcibly snatches their son and walks inside the building. In the second video, Reyansh is seen hiding in the blanket as his father drops by to see him.
    Taking to her Instagram, Shweta captioned the video, "Now let the truth Come out!!! (But this is not going to stay forever on my account, I will eventually delete it, I am posting this right now to reveal the truth, then it goes off) This is why my Child is scared of him! After this incident my child was scared for more than a month, he was so scared that he would not even sleep properly at Night! His hand hurt for more than 2 weeks. Even now he is scared of his papa coming home or meeting him."
    "His hand hurt for more than 2 weeks. Even now, he is scared of his papa coming home or meeting him. I can’t let my child go through this mental trauma. I try my best to keep him calm and happy! But this horrible man makes sure my baby's mental health goes back to square one! If this is not physical abuse then what is!!!!?? It is the CCTV footage of my society," she added.
    Here’s the screenshot of her Instagram post:

    Here’s the video that Shweta shared followed by Abhinav’s accusations:


    As the video went viral, people started to bash the onlookers who did nothing to protect her when the incident was happening, proving humanity is dead.

    Then, some people felt that Shweta was stubborn enough as Abhinav was just trying to hold the baby in his arms. They also added that it will be too soon to jump the gun without even listening to the other side of the story.

    The captain of the Indian cricket team, Virat Kohli has a unique relationship with the fans of the sport in the country. While on field and in international matches against rival national teams, all of them band together and back up his aggressive nature, off the field, he gets an equal amount of hate for doing exactly what he’s supposed to do.

    Amid the COVID-19 pandemic surge that India is going through at the moment, the cricketer got his first of two vaccinations on Monday and shared the images from his trip to the vaccine centre for the same through his social media handles.

    "I have nothing but gratitude for all the healthcare and frontline workers, they put their lives at risk to save ours, for this we are in awe of their spirit and dedication," Kohli had tweeted on Sunday.
    I have nothing but gratitude for all the healthcare & frontline workers, I am in awe of their spirit and dedication. I also want to thank all the people who came forward in such difficult times & helped each other. India is grateful to have heroes like you.#InThisTogether🇮🇳 pic.twitter.com/2YywzjRN4C

    However, the fact that Kohli was able to get the first jab while a lot of the cities and districts in the rest of the country have already run out of vaccinations and are struggling to get over the virus, has led to various people hopping on the internet and accusing the skipper of getting special celebrity treatment by the government.
    Celebrities are getting vaccines but common people struggling to get slots.

    — Gaurav (@Gaurav57484298) May 10, 2021Celebrities will always be prioritised in our country.. common man will always suffer
    — debrup das (@dasdebrup) May 10, 2021In europe or america. Old people are getting vaccinated or people with some medical treatment are in priority. But in Asia celebrities & politicians are in priority. Common man have to wait.
    — Danish (@danish__meer) May 10, 2021How did he get a slot so easily? We don't even get a few seconds before the slots are booked!
    — Harsh Chandarana (@harsh_c3001) May 10, 2021Last week, Virat Kohli and wife Anushka Sharma had started a “movement”, a fundraising campaign with the hopes of collecting Rs. 7 crore in a week and the proceedings go towards the ACT Grants, which has been working towards providing oxygen, medical manpower, vaccination awareness, and telemedicine facilities during the pandemic.
    “As our country battles the second wave of Covid-19, and our healthcare systems are facing extreme challenges, it breaks my heart to see our people suffering. So, Virat and I have initiated a campaign #InThisTogether, with Ketto, to raise funds for Covid-19 relief. We shall all overcome this crisis together. Please step forward to support India and Indians. Your contribution will help in saving lives during this critical time,” Sharma wrote in the Instagram caption while talking about their initiative.
    The power couple had kickstarted the donation drive by donating Rs. 2 crore themselves. With three more days to go, the campaign has already brought in about 17000 supporters with the total amount crossing Rs 5.2 crore.
