    The first innings of the India-England Test at the Chepauk Stadium saw the touring side put up a massive 578-run total backed by skipper Joe Root’s incredible 218, Dom Sibley’s 87 and Ben Stokes’ 82.
    However, Virat Kohli’sΒ hopes of putting a plug of the flow on runs weren’t supported by his bowlers who ended up giving away 21 extra runs on no-balls and wide deliveries during the first two and a half days of cricket.

    One of the leading culprits of the bowling department was the 31-year old spinner Shahbaz Nadeem who ended up over-stepping for almost half of the team’s entire total no-balls, which is extremely unusual for a slow orthodox spinner.

    At the end of Day 2, Nadeem who had already bowled six no-balls back then, addressed the issue and spoke about working on his technicality.
    β€œI think I was jumping late (on load up) on to the crease whereas I should time my jump a bit early. So that created a bit of problem,” Nadeem had said at the media interaction.

    β€œOn the first day, it was more of a problem and today it was comparatively less. I need to go back and work in the nets to sort the problem,” said the 31-year-old veteran of 117 first-class games.
    Unfortunately, it seems as if the Muzaffarpur-born has not yet gotten used to the crease as his technical error continues to haunt him in the second innings as well.
    Angry fans were in no mood to let the southpaw spinner get a breather and called him out online:
    #INDvsENG Shahbaz Nadeem proving to be costly with No balls in Test.. Horrible !! Coach need to work with him if at he wants to keep his place in playing XI @imVkohli @RaviShastriOfc @BCCI

    Indian team paid the price for selection of Nadeem who is not even closer to international standards. Too many short balls and No balls. Hope @RaviShastriOfc @imVkohli team will lean a lesson from this loss. England are much deserved to win this test match. #INDvENG #ENDvIND

    Just hours ahead of the toss for the first match, the BCCI had revealed the Playing XI at the Chepauk and shocked the viewers when Nadeem was picked instead of a way more seasoned Kuldeep YadavΒ as the team’s thoroughbred spinner.
    Expert Harsha Bhogle tried to make sense of this move made by skipper Kohli and head coach Ravi Shastri to pick Nadeem over Yadav but ended up questioning the latter’s value in the teams of the decision-makers.
    Clearly, England's struggle against Embuldeniya has prompted the selection of Shahbaz Nadeem, a fine, vastly experienced finger spinner. But I wonder what this means for Kuldeep. Clearly the team management doesn't rate him too high at thr moment

    The first Test match between India and England was quickly slipping out of the hands ofΒ Virat Kohli’sΒ side, until half-a-series-oldΒ Washington SundarΒ came to the pitch and played yet another impressive innings to bring the team back in contention.
    He walked to the middle after the early fall of big names like vice captainΒ Ajinkya RahaneΒ and skipper Kohli himself.Β 
    Once Rishabh Pant’s wicket fell at 91, Sundar knew that he would have to act as the team anchor and hold the innings together while ensuring to reach as close to England’s total as he could, without letting the pressure and fatigue of Test cricket get the better of him.

    A steady 70-run partnership with veteran all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin during the final session of Day 3 and the first session of Day 4 allowed the 21-year-old to score a half-century on Test debut at home, making him join the ranks for legendary players like Sourav Ganguly and Suresh Raina.
    But more importantly, it allowed him to help the side cross the 300-run mark.
    India were at 305 when the opportunity for a century first became visible for Washington, however some extra bounce on a Jack Leach delivery caught his partner Ashwin by surprise and led to a stunning catch by wicket-keeper Josh Buttler.

    Despite lacking another strong hitter on the other end, Washington managed to keep his nerves while also going for big shots when bad balls were bowled to him.
    Unfortunately, the English bowling attack turned out to be too good for all of his partners who couldn’t hold on to the crease and kept falling one after another as Washington watched helplessly from the other end of the pitch.

    Tailender Jasprit Bumrah was the final wicket to fall and end the Men in Blue’s first innings with just 15 runs left for Washington to score and finally reach the centurion mark.
    Fans who’d followed Washington Sundar’s incredible performance during the third and fourth Tests matches in Australia were quick to joke about how Bumrah will not be allowed to enter his house:
    #Bumrah can never visit #WashingtonSundar's house when his father is at home #INDvENG

    "Mera naam hai Washington, mai chala DC" - Sundar trying to avoid his father.
    β€” Silly Point (@FarziCricketer) February 8, 2021
    The source of these jokes originates from the comments made by Washington’s father following his 62-run innings against the mighty Australian side at their famous β€˜Gabba Fortress’ which played a huge role in India winning the series.
    β€œI am disappointed he did not get a 100. When Siraj came, he should have hit fours and sixes. He is capable of that. He should have gone for sixes. He could have gone for pulls and big hits. Perhaps, he thought of trying to come close to Australia's total as the lead was very less," father M Sundar toldΒ IANSΒ from Chennai.

    The PlayStation 5’s launch has been a bit rocky in India due to limited supply and overwhelming demand for the next-generation console.Β 
    Many customers were unable to pre-order the console while many confirmed orders on various e-commerce websites were cancelled due to overselling their allotted stock.Β 
    However, it’s likely that the fresh stock of the PlayStation 5 might land in the country sometime next month i.e. March 2021.Β Β

    According to a report byΒ IGN India, multiple customers started to reach out retailers like Croma to get an exact date of the PS5 to restock.Β 

    Independently verified by IGN India, the PS5 is expected to be available sometime in March 2021. As of now, an exact date has not been detailed but we’ve reached out to Sony for further clarification.Β Β 
    It is worthy to point out, Sony India hinted at fresh PS5 stock when the console sold out on various platforms. β€œPS5 has been met with unprecedented enthusiasm by PlayStation fans in India, resulting in a stockout during the pre-order period. Please stay in touch with retailers for the next pre-order phase” Sony India said last month.Β

    Β Sony India is yet to make the PS5 Digital Edition on sale in the country and it could be a possibility that the digital variant might be available for purchase next month.Β 

    As of now, there is no news when the digital version of the PS5 will be available to purchase in India due to low expected demand.Β 
    India still prefers using physical disks for consoles due to a healthy used games ecosystemΒ and could be the reason behind the console’s delay.Β Β

    IGN India also reports that some Sony Centers have started to accept cash deposits in advance for the restock that is expected to land in March. The PlayStation 5 is in strong demand in India which has led to many scalpers trying to sell the console at a premium on classified websites like OLX.Β 

    It is worthy to point out that the PlayStation community in India have revolted against scalpers and successfully reported ads that were selling the PlayStation 5 above the maximum retail price.Β Β 
    The PlayStation 5 is currently the hottest gaming console that we feel is console gaming at its best right now. You can read ourΒ full reviewΒ to know more about the console and how it performs with next-gen and PS4 games.

    Ranveer Singh started his career in acting in 2010 but apart from his career graph, if there's another thing that has evolved with it, it certainly has to be his fashion game.Β 
    The man knows no boundaries when it comes to clothes and his style statement has changed drastically, from what we saw in 2010.Β 
    Now, from snazzyΒ pairs of sneakers worth a lakh to his reversible, flamboyant coat, his sartorial choices are always high on eccentricity.Β 
    His unconventional sense ofΒ style makesΒ us sit up and take notice every timeΒ he makes an appearance.

    So, when this time, he was spotted in a rather basic outfit, we were left open-mouthed. We say this not because of his style statement but due to the zany sneakers that he paired with this basic look.Β 
    Β© Gucci
    Ranveer is seen in Gucci's oversized white T-shirt called the Disk T-shirt and even though it is rather basic, this one costs a whopping Rs 45,000.Β 

    He coupled the T-shirt with classic blue straight jeans, which made the overall combination look simple and neat.
    Let's first take a look at his outfit.

    As for more details, this is made in pure cotton and comes in an oversized fit with the blue disk print at the front and the classic crewneck.
    Β© Farfetch
    The sneakers, though, are the pièce de résistance, if you ask us. These are Yeezy Boost 350 V2 "Glow in The Dark". 

    Β© Farfetch
    These sneakers were worth Rs 18,000 approximately when they were launched, but since these are a rare find, the cost has now shot up to Rs 75,000 approximately. Yes, let that sink in.

    Β© Viral Bhayani
    The prime knit upper of this pair is treated with glow in the dark effect, which gives it a slime green shade in daylight and a glowing effect at night.

    Another thing that strikes us about Singh is the fact that he never leaves his house without his accessories.Β 
    He amplifies his outfit, with at least three pieces and this time, it was his bright blue cap, a pair of opaque sunglasses, and the silver neckpiece that made a mind-blowing statement.Β 
    You also can't miss the vibrant blue watch that he is wearing here.
    Β© Instagram/Ranveer Singh
    On the work front, Ranveer will soon be seen in several movies includingΒ Cirkus, Jayeshbhai Jordaar and 83.

    We can't wait for more movies and more style inspiration, Ranveer.

    When it comes to the intermingling of varying style aesthetics, it really depends on a person's style sensibilities that affect the assembly of a never-seen-before outfit.Β 
    In Bollywood, Saif Ali Khan has always had a distinct sense of style which has consisted of outfit pairings inΒ new and creative ways.
    However, when Saif Ali Khan is not at work, he likes to keep his off-duty looks subtle and functional.Β 
    On most days, one would spot him in a plain, white cotton kurta with jeans and a pair of espadrilles, if not for this intriguing combination, he would be seen in a pair of shorts and sneakers with a cool graphic tee.Β 
    In fact, there are also days when he carefully picks his coordinated outfits that match with Taimur's as well.
    While Bollywood actors are rarely ever seen in the same outfit twice, Saif Ali Khan does not abide by these unspoken conventions and doesn't mind at all if he's repeating his outfit.Β 
    Case in point, a recent outfit that would be great for a grocery shopping trip and clearly has been worn before.Β

    Β© Viral Bhayani
    Saif Ali Khan was seen wearing a pair of Hollister shorts that had a rough finish at both ends and almost looked like hot pants at theΒ 'awkward' length they were at.Β 

    He paired that with a grey graphic band t-shirt and a pair of white shoes.

    On the work front, Saif Ali Khan will be working on projects that include the likes ofΒ Banti Aur Babli 2, Go Goa Gone 2, Adipurush, andΒ Bhoot Police.Β 

    This massive line of films is all scheduled to release this year and the following year. This means we're going to be seeing a lot more of Saif Ali Khan in the coming months.
    Moreover, these outfits are all casual, and we know for a fact, that when Saif gets ready for a formal event, he really cleans up well.Β 
    Now, that promotion events for films have resumed in Bollywood, we cant wait to see Saif in his formal avatar as well.
