    After the 2020 season of the Indian Premier League was taken away from Indian soil only to be hosted in the United Arab Emirates, the 14th edition of the tournament is once again back at home, although with some massive precautionary measures to keep the coronavirus pandemic at bay.
    One of those measures, as confirmed by the IPL Governing Council (GC) would be that none of the eight franchises will be allowed home-ground advantage during the season which will be held behind closed doors (welcoming of spectators will be reconsidered during the tournament).
    #IPL2021 @IPL 2021 from April 9 to May 30, no home games, no fans

    Mumbai, Chennai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Kolkata and Ahmedabad - will host the 60 matches of the tournament this season with Ahmedabad hosting the three play-offs and the final.

    The GC’s call to take away home-advantage from all of the franchises came after the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had previously decided to not hold any IPL 2021 matches at Mohali, Jaipur, and Hyderabad due to the Covid-19 outbreak and farmer’s protest in the region.
    Teams from these cities had raised an issue about the potential of being at a clear disadvantage while playing at the competitors’ grounds throughout the season, which the GC found valid and therefore established the rule that none of the eight sides will play in their own city.
    No home venues
    No spectators at the start
    11 double headers
    Each team will travel just thrice during the league stage

    Desperate times call for desperate measures and this is certainly one of them. It was therefore obvious that not everyone participating in the tournament either as a player or an official will be completely convinced and will find some issues with the new emergency model.
    One of the IPL franchise official said the BCCI are denying MS Dhoni to play his potential last IPL in Chennai. If there are to be no crowds, what stops CSK to play in Chennai and Mumbai Indians to play in Mumbai. (To Cricbuzz).

    One such franchise official spoke about his dismay with the fact that former India skipper and one of the most successful players in IPL history, Mahendra Singh Dhoni would not get to play what is possibly his final season in the league, on Chennai ground, the city he remained loyal to throughout his IPL journey.
    “You are denying MS Dhoni to play his potential last IPL in Chennai. If there are to be no crowds, what stops CSK to play in Chennai and Mumbai Indians to play in Mumbai,” the official told CricBuzz.

    As unfortunate as that is, fans of the Indian Premier League argued that one player, regardless of who he is, will never be bigger than the game itself and that the entire structure of a tournament must not be changed just to accommodate a single athlete’s legacy.
    Lol....IPL will not be scheduled according to one franchise or player...no one is bigger than the game not even fraud finisher thala...
    — (@Pullshot_expert) March 8, 2021What do we call this being dumb or something else. No Home advantage means not for fun. It is the point here as a precaution to safety.
    — Praveen Kumar Bheema #indian🇮🇳 (@praveen_bheema) March 8, 2021Lol, whoever said it has an IQ less than room temperature. That would have been really unfair to teams like RR, Punjab, Hyderabad. I am an MSdian for life but tournament like IPL doesn't revolve around one player or team.
    — Akshat Abhishek (@akshatabhishek0) March 8, 2021This argument is totally illogical. If there is no Chennai crowd available then how does it matter if Dhoni plays his last IPL in Chepauk or Wankhede or Lords? Also it doesn't matter at all to Dhoni otherwise he wouldn't have retired without a farewell match.
    — Rishabh (@HereComesTrophy) March 8, 2021I think it's the people behind him (maybe the csk management) who what him to play his potential last ipl at Chennai. I think dhoni couldn't care less about where he plays or finished his last ipl, as far as the team plays well, his last ipl is in no danger of losing its charm.

    Nita Mukesh Ambani, the chairperson of Reliance Foundation, launched a new social media platform for women called ‘Her Circle’ on Sunday, the eve of International Women’s Day. 
    View this post on Instagram
    “Her Circle is envisioned to be a worldwide digital collective of women — beginning with Indian women but open to participation of women from all over the globe. It is an all-encompassing content, social media and goal fulfilment community that caters to the rapidly rising aspirations, ambitions, dreams and competencies of women of all social backgrounds,” reads the official announcement on Instagram.
    On ‘Her Circle’, users will be able to network with other women, as well have access to various content around health, fitness, finance, work, personality development, and more. It will also include goal tracking and fulfillment functions for health, fitness, finance, and more.
    The platform will also serve to answer women’s questions on these topics by a panel of experts from Reliance.
    “All my life I have been surrounded by strong women from whom I have learnt compassion, resilience, and positivity and in return, I have strived to pass on my learnings to others,” Ambani said, as reported by Economic Times. “As a daughter who grew up in a family of 11 girls, I was taught to believe in myself. From my daughter Isha, I have received unconditional love and confidence to continue to follow my dreams. From my daughter-in-law Shloka, I have learnt empathy and patience.”
    The social media platform is available as both a desktop and mobile website as well as a free app on Google Play Store and My Jio App Store.
    “When women lean on women, incredible things happen,” Nita Ambani said at the launch. “Whether it is the women from Reliance Foundation or the national and international women leaders that I have worked with, our shared experiences show me that in the end our struggles and triumphs resonate with each other.”

    The coronavirus pandemic has left the Indian cricket team with a unique predicament of having too much cricket on their platter and this may lead to some rather drastic measures with the hopes of participating in every tournament.
    Following the dominating 3-1 win in the Test series against the touring England side, the Men in Blue have qualified for the finals of the World Test Championship against Kane Williamson-led New Zealand cricket team. The series is to be held at London’s Lord’s Cricket Ground in June 2021.

    Coincidentally, Team India has yet another major cricketing event to tend to - the Asia Cup (in a 20-over format) scheduled to take place in Sri Lanka around the same time as above.
    So, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is trying to negotiate a situation with the Asian Cricket Council in which they can send a second India roster completely dedicated to the Asia Cup while one team remains in England itself.
    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".
    — Johns. (@CricCrazyJohns) March 8, 2021
    "There's no other choice. We can't risk the preparation for the series in England. And cricketers can't twice undergo quarantine. If the Asia Cup happens, India will have no option but to send a second-string squad," top sources confirmed as per a report in the Times of India.
    To be honest, the priority for the Men in Blue will be the World Test Championship, which means that some of the biggest names of the squad including Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, and Jasprit Bumrah would be likely to miss out on the Asia Cup, even after the WTC gets over, as they have yet another five-Test series against England on their turf.
    Now, if the BCCI does get the green-light on assembling a second team, one of the biggest topics of discussion becomes that of the second captain for the shortest format of the game.
    Fans of the Bleed Blue army are debating the potential second captain on Twitter:

    The head coach of the Indian cricket team, Ravi Shastri has many traits that make him an enigmatic figure, and getting worked up about social media trolls isn’t one of them.
    Following India’s dominating series win against the touring England cricket team in a four-Test clash, the former Indian skipper got in front of the camera for an online interview and addressed the numerous social media posts that revolve around him and his fondness for alcoholic beverages.

    "It's banter all the way. They do it to have fun. It's at my expense, but it's okay," Ravi Shastri in the post-match press conference the day after his Men in Blue thrashed Joe Root and CO. in just two and a half days to win the series at the newly inaugurated Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
    "Have a drink on my name. When you post those kinds of things, so many people have a laugh," the India coach said. "Enjoy, it doesn't affect me.”

    "In cricket, if you are playing well and succeeding, people will be happy with you, and when you are not winning, you have to face some kicks and slaps," he added.
    While some would still like to carry on with the trolling trend, Shastri’s simplistic response to the situation has led to getting support from the masses:
    congratulations Ravi. Well Said. next time, don't even reply. They don't deserve replies. U r the best manager, who delivered a lot. Period
    — Sustainable Value to All Stakeholders (@ZeRoBiAsBlUnT) March 7, 2021When Kumble was removed and you were brought back, I along all fams thought that Virat wants complete freedom and it will backfire....

    — Apoorv (@aalisswell) March 7, 2021While back in the day, Shastri used to avoid addressing such issues on social media and in person, the former all-rounder has now found the strength to participate in the online banter and respond to those who wish to “bring some smiles in these tough times” at his cost.
    One such incident took place at the end of the third match of the India-England series when writer and columnist Shobhaa De tagged the coach on a Twitter meme that made fun of Shastri’s fondness for drinking.
    Smart!

    — Shobhaa De (@DeShobhaa) February 26, 2021
    Instead of reacting in a not-so-friendly manner, the former athlete kept his cool and responded with class.
    Love the banter ! Feels good to bring some smiles in these tough times 🏻 https://t.co/mzPe5MtItj
    — Ravi Shastri (@RaviShastriOfc) February 27, 2021
    Shastri is considered to be one of the most polarising people who has held the position of the head coach of the Indian cricket team, especially after someone as credible as Anil Kumble ended up resigning from the post following disagreements with skipper Virat Kohli.
    However, if we take a look at the kind of dominance that Team India has had across all formats of the game, especially in bilateral series, Shastri’s case as one of the most successful Indian head coaches becomes really strong.
    After the comeback series in Australia and a 3-1 victory over the English side, India are once against the best team in world cricket in the longest format of the game and are looking forward to locking horns against the mighty New Zealand roster in the finals of the World Test Championship come June 2021 at London’s Lord’s Cricket Ground.

    Recently Siddhant Chaturvedi  took to Instagram to post something that fans had been pointing out for over a month now. It looks like Siddhant Chaturvedi has a celebrity look-alike and the actor is taking it in great strides. He posted a close-up picture of his face from Gully Boy in contrast with the actor, Rege-Jean Page. Take a look at the post here:
    View this post on Instagram
    Sharing a collage of the two pictures on Instagram, the Gully Boy actor wrote, “Sacchi? ”
    The actor in contrast with Siddhant Chaturvedi, Rege-Jean Page played the role of Simon Basset or the Duke Of Hastings from a recent show on Netflix called Bridgerton. which has already received over 82 million views. Also starring Phoebe Dynevor, Bridgerton is set during the Regency era in England, following the lives of eight close-knit siblings of the powerful Bridgerton family as they attempt to find love.
    View this post on Instagram
    However, what caught Siddhant's fans' attention was the fact that Rege-Jean Page as Duke of Hastings holds a striking resemblance to Siddhant. From his stubble to the slightly curled hair, to a similar-looking hairstyle. People were also amused by how the two actors had similar facial features. In fact, they could even play twins in a film one day and no one would guess them apart.
    Although, the comments' section was filled with people who were split into two teams: ones who nodded head in agreement and the other side that just didn't see any similarities.
    Later, Siddhant posted another Instagram post where he was seen prepping for another role with the caption, “Manzil jitni upar hogi, Ghutne Utne phootengey. Thikaano pe ruk gaye agar… toh peeche waale lootengey. Isliye Chal Bhaag! #MyNotes #Yudhra.”

    The film Yudhra is being directed by Ravi Udyawar who also made Mom starring Sridevi back in 2017. Siddhant will be acting alongside Malavika Mohanan in this film.

    Besides this film, Siddhant is also prepping for the release of his upcoming film Bunty Aur Babli 2. The second installment of the iconic film will also star Saif Ali Khan, Rani Mukerji & Sharvari Wagh. The film is scheduled to release on April 23, 2021. Alongside its film, Siddhant will also be working on Shakun Batra’s next project alongside Deepika Padukone and Ananya Panday.
