    The final match of the T20I series between India and England was full of action but not everything exciting which took place on the field had to do with cricket.
    During the 13th over of the touring side’s batting innings, opening batsman Jos Buttler had lost his wicket to Bhuvneshwar Kumar following a Hardik Pandya catch and had to go back to the dressing room disappointed, despite a stunning performance at the crease to give his side an ideal start to such a high scoring game.
    On Buttler’s way back to the pavilion, however, the captain of the Indian cricket team Virat Kohli was seen getting upset about something the latter had said and let the Englishman hear it. This made Buttler come back towards the pitch to participate in a war of words.
    Kohli and Umpire talk over Buttler spat was quite animated. #INDvENG pic.twitter.com/fZsOrjgwnF
    — cricBC (@cricBC) March 20, 2021What led to the argument remains unclear but shortly after, the hosting skipper could be seen having a loud and animated discussion with the on-field umpires while Jonny Bairstow made his way to the crease to join Dawid Malan for a very brief partnership.
    This exchange has left the fans of the touring side with a bitter taste in their mouths and have even called out Virat Kohli for considering himself to be above the game of cricket.
    Kohli, a great batsman but he has far too much to say. He thinks he’s above the game.
    — Steve Cox (@SteveCox74) March 20, 2021Kohli in India is a joke! NEVER out on 3rd umpire or LBW, and is possibly the ONLY player allowed to badmouth officials and players alike without reproach! What happened following Jos' dismissal is a disgrace! No other player would get away with it! 🇬🇧
    — Marc Eden And TPC (@Marc88Eden) March 20, 2021Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct deals with "using language, actions or gestures which disparage or which could provoke an aggressive reaction from a batter upon his dismissal during an international match".#INDvENG https://t.co/9CEqwbMJyL
    — Wisden (@WisdenCricket) March 20, 2021Kohli was absolutely incredible during the match as he opened the Indian innings alongside Rohit Sharma for the very first time in the shortest format of the game. While the ‘Hitman’ did the majority of the scoring early in the game, Kohli played second-fiddle and ensured wicket-safety to his partner to allow him to go for big shots.
    Once Sharma’s wicket fell, Kohli partnered up with Suryakumar Yadav first and then Hardik Pandya and guided the Men in Blue to a big total of 224 runs while playing an unbeaten 80-run innings and orchestrating the squad for the series win.
    With the Tests and T20Is now behind them, India will lock horns against Eoin Morgan’s men in a three-match ODI series which starts from March 23, at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. The ODI series will also be played behind closed doors due to the resurgence of coronavirus cases in the state.

    The exciting T20I series between India and England came to a nail-biting end when in the fifth and final match, the top-order partnership of Dawid Malan and Jos Buttler was proving to be a little too good for Virat Kohli’s comfort.
    Having established a massive 224-run total in the first half of the match, the Men in Blue would not have realised that they would have to put so much extra effort into ending the match as the duo of Malan and Buttler looked absolutely invincible at a certain point of time.

    Sharing just 75 deliveries between them, the two Englishmen scored a total of 130 runs together and gave their side the promising start they needed in such a high-scoring game. With 17 boundaries coming off just these two superstars’ bats, the fans of the Indian cricket team were at the edge of their seats, hoping to see one of them give up their wicket.
    Former England captain, Michael Vaughan knew what to tweet at this point in order to derive maximum engagement via his Twitter account and he hit the bullseye with this one… even though it backfired later in the night.
    Are you getting nervous in India !!!! #INDvENG
    — Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) March 20, 2021
    “Are you getting nervous in India !!!!” wrote an extremely excited Vaughan in the tweet.

    Unfortunately for Vaughan, within minutes of his tweet, Buttler ended up losing his wicket to Bhuvneshwar Kumar following a Hardik Pandya catch and had to return to the pavilion, albeit with a fiery 52 off 34 to brag about.
    Soon after, Malan found himself standing on the other side of the pitch as Jonny Bairstow came and went for cheap. Malan would soon get bowled out by Shardul Thakur in the 15th over with a huge 82-run lead to catch up to for the rest of the team.

    At this point, the number of deliveries left was simply not enough for the English lower-middle order to go for a successful chase and that match was pretty much over.
    Unable to contain their excitement, the fans of the Indian cricket team burst out on Vaughan’s Twitter, letting him hear a word or two:

    It wasn’t too long ago when the captain of the Indian cricket team Virat Kohli, and the latest sensation of the squad in the shortest format of the game Suryakumar Yadav, were making headlines as competitive rivals in the Indian Premier League
    During the 13th edition of the tournament, a video went viral in which Kohli, who captains the Royal Challengers Bangalore franchise, was seen trying to intimidate SKY - who bats for Mumbai Indians
    This is what happened between Virat Kohli and Surya Kumar Yadav
    SKY and Virat Kohli full video ♥️#MIvsRCB #IPL #IPLT20 #ViratKohli #MumbaiIndians #RCB #RCBvMI #BCCI pic.twitter.com/uKCj1aJVhF
    — cricky (@Crickosaurus) October 28, 2020It was the 48th match of the season and the biggest highlight took place at the end of the 13th over of MI’s batting innings. On the penultimate delivery, Yadav had struck South African legend Dale Steyn for a four. On the final ball, Yadav knocked it towards covers where Kohli had positioned himself.
    As soon as the RCB skipper grabbed the ball, he calmly started to walk towards Yadav, staring right into his eyes. The MI cricketer didn’t budge either and kept his eye contact with the Team Indian skipper.
    Image 1
    Once Kohli came and stood right next to him portraying to clean the ball, Suryakumar calmly walked away, leaving the “King” hanging, with the ball in his hand.
    SKY would go on to play an unbeaten 79-run innings in a match-winning effort for this side and it led to arguably his most iconic picture of all time in which he tells his team: “I got this”.
    View this post on Instagram
    Kohli was called out on social media for trying to intimidate his own countrymen while SKY was lauded for standing his ground and going toe-to-toe with the very best in the business but it also highlighted the level of passion the two shared for tough competition.
    Maybe that is why, just six months later, Kohli is head over heels for Yadav, who is his newest India teammate.
    After a dream start to his international career, the way Suryakumar lost his wicket to an extremely questionable decision by the third umpire in the fourth match of the T20I series between India and England, Kohli not only expressed his disappointment but also used his position as the captain to let the decision-makers know that there is a need for change in the ICC rulebooks.
    "If it's a half and half effort, I don't think the umpire from square leg can see that clearly and make a conclusive call. I don't know why there cannot be an 'I don't know' call for the umpire as well" - Virat Kohli on the soft signal and Suryakumar Yadav's dismissal. #INDvsENG
    — Saurabh Somani (@saurabh_42) March 18, 2021
    And then of course there was the final match of the series in which SKY and Kohli lit up the Narendra Modi Stadium with 4’s and 6’s after the dismissal of Rohit Sharma, which led to an incredible 49-run partnership in the middle to make a promising 224-run total.

    OnePlus is all set to launch its new smartphone in a few days and a lot about the upcoming smartphones have been confirmed by the company itself. The new smartphone is all set to take on Samsung and Apple in the premium smartphone category while also catering to customers who are looking for an affordable smartphone. It seems like the OnePlus 9 Series is turning out to be the ultimate Android phone to own in 2021 and here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming launch.

    1. OnePlus 9 Pro  The marquee device to launch on March 23rd will be the OnePlus 9 Pro that is shaping up to be a true flagship filler. It will be the main focus of the company at the launch and we already have a good idea what the phone is all going to be about. For starters, the OnePlus 9 Pro has already been rated to have one of the best displays on a smartphone possible by the folks at DisplayMate. It has already received an A+ grade, a rating shared by the Galaxy S21 Ultra and the iPhone 12 Pro. It has already been revealed that the smartphone will feature a 6.7-inch QHD+ LTPO display that has a resolution of 3216x1440 pixels and supports up to 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone will support 65W fast-charging with the Warp Charger and 50W wireless charging as well.

    The company also revealed a partnership with Swedish camera company ‘Hasselblad’ where the main camera has been tuned to deliver improved images. OnePlus CEO Pete Lau also revealed via a Tweet that the phones will be using the Sony IMX789 48MP sensor and mentioned it will be capable of shooting 4K videos at 120fps. There will be three additional cameras including an ultra-wide sensor which will know more about at the event. OnePlus also revealed via a Tweet the smartphone will be powered by Qualcomm’s latest flagship processor i.e. the Snapdragon 888 SoC.

    The OnePlus 9 will be the second smartphone the company will be launching alongside the ‘Pro’ model however it will be a cheaper alternative. The phone will be slightly smaller and will not have a few features to keep the cost low. Not much has been revealed about the second phone but we expect it to lack wireless charging and a 6.55-inch Full HD+ display. The display will have a higher refresh rate but it is currently unknown whether it will be 90Hz or 120Hz. The OnePlus 9 is also expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 888 chipset since OnePlus tends to use the same SoC for its slightly cheaper model as well. 

    3. OnePlus Watch  © Oneplus
    OnePlus has already confirmed that a smartwatch will be launching alongside the two smartphones however we don’t know what it looks like as of now. The company has also confirmed that the wearable will not be running Google’s WearOS which made us suspect that it may not be a proper smartwatch after all. The smartwatch is said to work more like a fitness band with features that will let users track exercises, heart rate and SpO2 or blood oxygen levels. Leaks have suggested the smartwatch could also be used to control the OnePlus TV however that remains to be confirmed as of now. We should know more about the smartwatch at the launch event and whether it will be a proper smartwatch for OnePlus users.

    4. OnePlus 9R? © MensXP/Akshay Bhalla
    A recent announcement OnePlus points to a third phone that will be a more affordable entry similar to the OnePlus Nord. It seems like this will be an India-exclusive handset that will have similar hardware to the OnePlus Nord. The display might have a 90Hz refresh rate and a 6.55-inch Full HD+ screen which is yet to confirmed by sources as of now. To keep the cost low, the smartphone will not support wireless charging however it should make use of OnePlus’ Warp Charge technology. As for the SoC, there is no news which chipset will be powering the smartphone as of now but we predict it could either be the Snapdragon 865 chipset or even the Snapdragon 690 if OnePlus truly wants to compete in the budget-friendly segment.

    Do you remember Bollywood action movies of the 90s when Ajay Devgn and Akshay Kumar were ruling the space? Ajay Devgn, for instance, was introduced in his debut movie Phool Aur Kaante as someone who could plant his feet on two fast-moving bikes like cakewalk.
    Even though we enjoyed our favourite actors fighting in those movies, it now feels like a plastic way of showing action sequences because it never looked believable. It’s not that our action scenes are believable now, but surely our perception of action heroes has changed with the new lot of actors joining the action space.
    We believe these five actors have elevated the level of the action genre in Bollywood and given the opportunity, they can make a mark in Hollywood movies too.
    1. John AbrahamJohn Abraham has surely impressed us with his action hero avatar in movies like Dhoom, Romeo Akbar Walter, Batla House, and Satyamev Jayate. Despite having done various genres like action, comedy, and drama, he himself considers himself as an action hero and we do believe that he won't feel out of the place in a Hollywood action flick. 
    In an interview with PTI, John had once said, “I think the biggest stars are action heroes. Look at Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Dwayne Johnson. Action stars will always be evergreen. In our country, apart from me, there is Tiger Shroff who is doing great action. At the moment, two of us are doing action films. We both have different styles. There is a place for more action heroes but there are only two of us.”
    2. Tiger Shroff
    We completely agree with John that Tiger has truly shaped himself as an action hero who has taken Bollywood action movies a level ahead. He has built a body of work that makes him stand out from his contemporaries especially in the action genre. From Baaghi to War, we have seen Tiger deliver crazy stunts and thrills in his movies. 
    "I enjoy doing action films. Today, whatever I have achieved is because of the films I have done, primarily the action films. All my inspirations like Jackie Chan and Hrithik Roshan have been big action heroes. So, I am inspired to be like them and I am inspired to do things like them," said Tiger, while interacting with the media at the success meet of his movie War. He hasn’t ever dismissed the fact he wants to be seen as an international action hero either.

    3. Vidyut Jamwal
    Be it Force or Commando, Vidyut has surely carved a niche for himself as an action hero and he also believes in doing all of his stunts by himself which also makes them look believable. 
    In one of the interviews with PTI, he had said, “I am born to do action. I can't see myself doing anything else. It is not a good thing to say but I want to be typecast as an action hero. I don't want to do a movie that has no action.” Given the level of action sequences in his movies, we really wish he lands a Hollywood action movie soon.

    4. Randeep Hooda
    We have seen Randeep Hooda in Extraction and we know that he is a perfect fit for action movies in Hollywood as well as Bollywood. When he was asked in one of the interviews that his action sequences were quite different from those in Bollywood, he had a perfect answer to it. He said, “Well, I've been doing Hollywood-style acting here in Bollywood for some time now (laughs), so the change wasn't much. But certainly, the action part was very different. We practiced for weeks. We attended workshops and started with the basics of holding a gun, firing a bullet, throwing a punch. First, it was done individually, and then it was Chris and I and then other actors. So the preparation work is what gives the scenes the spontaneity.” 
    He added, “In Indian movies, people don't pay too much attention to prepping for an action scene. They just turn-up on sets, and sometimes it's just about the star value. But Chris came for all the rehearsals. Sam was helming it (sic) as well as physically shooting it, operating the camera, jumping on top of cars, hanging from ropes to capture the scene, so that made a huge difference." He also believes that it was Extraction that gave him a chance to prove his mettle as an action hero. Here's hoping we get to see more of him in Hollywood action movies.
    5. Hrithik Roshan
    Hrithik, with movies like Dhoom 2, Bang Bang!, Mission Kashmir, and War, has redefined the genre of action in Bollywood. In one of his interviews around the release of War, he had said, “A Mission Impossible is a benchmark. It’s all in a very intelligently crafted screenplay and all the characters are very intelligent. They do not spoon-feed you. In our cinema, because we were so used to spoon-feeding at one point in time, our action films became very boring to watch. It was spoon-fed, very easy. It was like ‘yeh kya ho raha hai sab’ (What is happening?). The action was for the sake of action. Now it is changing, and with War, I hope people start understanding that action needs to be devised according to the brain of the character. It has to be planned and there has to be a story in the action.” Remember the time when the news of him being interviewed for the role of James Bond was doing the rounds? Well, it won't be too far-fetched to think of seeing him in a Hollywood action movie then, would it?

    The Indian cricket team won yet another series of international cricket on the back of some stellar batting performances by some of the most famous names in the game as captain Virat Kohli and vice-captain Rohit Sharma lit up the Narendra Modi Stadium with devastating shots in all directions.
    Opening together for the very first time for Team India in the shortest format of the game, the duo of Kohli and Sharma led to a sturdy 94-run partnership at the crease which led to the two other big hitters in Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya bat fearlessly and helped their squad form a massive 224-run total.
    View this post on Instagram
    In the first half of the Indian innings, it was the ‘Hitman’ who did the majority of scoring and looked practically unbeatable on strike. He smashed a grand 64 off just 33 deliveries before Ben Stokes bowled him out in the 9th over.
    Once Sharma was dismissed, Kohli’s aggression began to take shape too as the technical maestro operated his way through England’s fielding and placed all of his big shots in the gap. He even tried to take a leaf out of Rishabh Pant’s book of unorthodox shots but quickly realised that he was better off following his own play-style — the same play-style which allowed him to score an undefeated 80 off just 52 deliveries and was the final check-mark to honour him with the ‘Player of the Series’ award.

    And even though the two superstars played some of their best cricket Kohli and Sharma fans got involved in a healthy debate about which shot was better — the skipper’s hook or the pull shot by the deputy in command?

    — Gurdeep ⚡ (@Gurdeep_0701) March 20, 2021 Even Harsha Bhogle couldn’t resist the urge to kick-start a debate on the two shots, asking his followers’ opinions on the one they found better than the other.
    Rohit Sharma's pull? Or Virat Kohli's hook. Seen the best of both this evening
    — Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) March 20, 2021The former 10/10. That latter, 9.5.
    — Tunku Varadarajan (@tunkuv) March 20, 2021Big Kohli fan but Rohit's pull is one of the most fluently nd accurately played shot i have ever seen.

    Simply Effortless and all class
    — |Vivek Gupta| (@vibrantvivek_) March 20, 2021Whatever the decision may be, the fact remains that if both of India’s finest batsmen click the way they did in the fifth match, there is no team in the world that can take away the victory from the Men in Blue, not even England which is ranked number one in T20Is and ODIs.

    The fifth and final match of the T20I series between India and England saw a charged-up Rohit Sharma playing at the highest form of cricket in the shortest format of the game as he sliced through English bowlers one after another while on his way to a blistering half-century.
    Focusing the pacers early in the match, Sharma sent Chris Jordan, Jofra Archer, and Mark Wood’s deliveries over the ropes as if he was playing gully cricket with a bunch of kids. With four 4’s and five 6’s Sharma scored 64 runs off 33 balls before Ben Stokes got the better of him and bowled him out on the final delivery of the 9th over.

    And regardless of how many bog shots Sharma played during his stupendous innings, a relatively insignificant moment from his stint in the middle has been catching the attention of his Indian fans thanks to former England cricketer and English commentator for the match, Graeme Swann. 
    During the fourth over of India’s batting, Sharma had struck Wood for a straight drive and the ball brushed past the bowler’s little finger while on its way to the boundary. Swann, who was on the microphone having a conversation with Indian commentators Harsha Bhogle and Ajit Agarkar tried explaining the scenario to the viewers but might just have ended up saying something absolutely wrong… too wrong for live television.

    “@Swannyg66 during commentary " make sure he doesn't break his little dick....little pinky" Oopsie (sic),” wrote Twitter user @ultimatesourav while sharing the video of the moment. 
    Turns out a lot of Indian fans who were watching the match at the time also weren’t sure what the Englishman had said and hopped on social media to check: 
    Did @Swannyg66 just say: “Break his little d**k...pinky”? #INDvENG@StarSportsIndia
    — TJ Singh (@TS_Kapoor) March 20, 2021Hilarious #FauxPas by @Swannyg66 on air. "Once he realised he wasn't going to catch it, Mark wood wanted to get his little d*ck...(slight pause) pinkie out of the way"

    — Prithvi (@Puneite_) March 20, 2021 Sharma’s masterful rally at the top of the Indian batting order spearheaded a collaborative elite-level batting performance by the Men in Blue with Virat Kohli also batting at the opener’s position for only the second time in international cricket alongside the Mumbai star.
    After the dismissal of the ‘Hitman’, it was Kohli who remained undefeated at 80* while Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya also manage to add significantly to Team India’s total.

    India’s 224-run target proved to be too much for the Englishmen to chase down and the hosts came up victorious at the end of the night, winning the series 3-2 at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium.
