    Cricket in the era of the coronavirus pandemic has given birth to some unusual trends all over the world. Things like not allowing spectators in the stadium and adding fake crowd noise are among the ones that impact the ambiance of an international game the most.
    However, there is yet another rule that the International Cricket Council had established last year to prevent the spread of the highly contagious virus among the players and that was banning the use of spit to shine the ball.
    How lovely. Cricket is returning to a quieter, less yobbish style of conduct. Apart from rubbing sweat instead of spit into the ball 🤢 #r4today
    — Andrew Booton 🇬🇧 (@AndrewBooton) July 8, 2020
    Instead the players were asked to use their sweat for similar purposes.
    Indian cricketer Mayank Agarwal, however has this usual habit of going to his fellow teammates and borrowing their sweat whenever he feels the need.
    On Day 2 of the first Test of the India-England series, Agarwal was seen rubbing the ball on Washington Sundar’s face with the hopes of getting all the sweat he wanted as the 21-year-old allrounder looked away with a face full of embarrassment.
    The official Twitter handle of the BCCI even shared the picture with the fans.

    “Every drop of your sweat counts. #TeamIndia #INDvENG,” BCCI wrote.
    The fans couldn’t help but marvel at what the players have to do at the time of the pandemic:
    Cricket these days , you need to ask your team mates around for sweat

    — Ananya Khanna (@a_khanzzzz) February 6, 2021Believe it or not, this isn’t the first time Agarwal has asked a fellow teammate to give up their sweat. During the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, it was Shardul Thakur who had to go through what Sundar did on Saturday.

    During the final match of the series at the Brisbane Cricket Ground, Agarwal was seen running to Thakur and rubbing the ball on his sweaty arm before rubbing it on his trousers to remove the dirt and bring back the shine for the ball to swing more.
    However, many of the Australian fans considered this incident as going against the rules and started calling it “India’s sandpaper incident” which obviously was not the case. 
    Cheating if that were Australia obviously.

    Fan of beard styles but can't grow one? You already know that your best bet in such cases is a short stubble. Even if you are not naturally gifted with a thick beard, the right bit of facial hair can transform your look. 
    Wondering where to start? Follow our guide on how to grow a short stubble beard and maintain it. 
    1. Start With Shaving © iStock
    Before you start growing out your hair, it is important to clear the area of any residues. For example, your pores. 

    When you keep your face clean, it will help you grow a healthier beard. Use a mild cleanser and shave your face, for your facial mane to build and grow well.
    2. Check Your Optimal Length © iStock
    You understand your facial hair well and know which style looks good on you. But sometimes, it may not be in your favour.

    The best way to figure this is to understand the best beard style that matches your face shape. Then with the help of a beard trimmer, you can adjust the guard and work your way to get a shorter stubble. 
    3. Check The Cheek & Neck Lines © iStock
    Regardless of which beard style you choose, even if it is a short stubble, it is imperative to keep your cheek and necklines clean at all hours. 

    Your whiskers can grow out in an unkempt manner but to make it look flattering, use a trimmer to keep the lines neat and give a definition to your beard. 
    4. Encourage Growth © iStock
    The hard work to grow a beard isn’t over yet as you will also have to exfoliate the skin regularly. 

    Also, pay attention to your diet and don't forget to add vitamins B and C, along with iron, zinc and Omega 3 to your lifestyle. This is good nourishment for your facial hair. 
    5. It's Okay If It Is Patchy © iStock
    Let's admit that patchy beard looks good and while growing out your short stubble if there are little patches in between, it is okay. 

    There are hacks that can help you cover the patches, helping you make it look less patchy.
    6. Hair Care © iStock
    Now that you are a proud owner of the beard style, the work isn't over yet. Maintaining your beard can make or break the look. 

    Despite it being a short stubble, work some beard oil on your hair to add some nourishment and steer clear of beard issues like dandruff. 
    7. Ingrown Hair © iStock
    Ingrown hair can be very annoying but to not experience the pain of this beard problem, the simplest way to lift it out is by scrubbing and using a good exfoliator for your skin, followed by a moisturiser. 

    Takeaway: Achieving a short stubble look may sound petrifying but when you follow these steps, it's half job done. Do it judiciously and you will have a perfect, facial scruff to flaunt.

    The opening batsman and the vice-captain of the Indian cricket team in limited-overs cricket, Rohit Sharma’s  test cricket woes continue to haunt him in the first of Test matches against the touring England squad at Chennai’s Chepauk Stadium. 
    After the struggling bowling attack finally managed to dismiss the entire England batting lineup for a mammoth 578-run total, the Men in Blue required a long and effective innings by their senior players and desperately needed Sharma to have a decent stint at the pitch.
    View this post on InstagramBut instead of sticking to the crease and providing his side with a stable innings, Sharma ended up throwing his wicket on just the ninth delivery he faced. After sending a Jofra Archer delivery for a four, Sharma was unable to gauge the following ball and the edge off his bat ended up sitting comfortably in wicket-keeper Jos Butler’s gloves for a caught-behind.  
    Dismissed for just six runs, Sharma had a herd of Indian fans begging him to retire from the longest format of the game and focus on what he does best, dominate in white-ball cricket.
    Rohit Sharma Can't bat in Aways Tests and now he couldn't bat also in home conditions then what is he doing in the team u can't bat u can't field !!!!! It's the the right time @ImRo45 to retire respectfully !!! pic.twitter.com/zennuWKM3c
    — Ammar (@Ammar_one8) February 7, 2021I Wass a bigg fan of ROHIT SHARMA but Abb Mujhe laga hai kii isske bass ka kuch bhi nhi hai virat isse bhot bhadia wo fans ko bhot kum dissappoint karta hai YE tho lodu hai 20 innings me sirf ek match me hi runn bnata hai. iss Ka waqt khatam hogya hai isse retire Ho jana chahiye.
    — Aditya (@Aditya77214100) February 7, 2021@ImRo45 let’s retire. Enough, you are not a test player.. used to feel bad for you but seen enough in Australia and first innings here. retire.. your fat body reflect your mindset... focus on ODI and T20... you are worth there only
    — Chosa (@Chosa9) February 7, 2021Rohit Sharma should retire from Test cricket! #INDvsENG #INDvENG
    — ROHIT (@TheRohitGulati) February 7, 2021Making a return to the Test squad during the four-match series in Australia, Sharma was vastly criticised for lacking the patience to stay on strike, select the bad deliveries to score boundaries on and unnecessarily taking risky shots which more often than not led to the end of his innings.
    Over the four innings that Sharma got to bat in during the Australia series, his scores read 26, 52, 44 and 7 respectively and every single time he was dismissed, it was off a catch and the trend seems to continue at home as well.
    View this post on InstagramShortly after Sharma’s dismissal, a series-old Shubman Gill also got out thanks to a blinding effort by the 38-year old James Anderson who took a diving catch at mid-on. The young opener was playing aggressive cricket and had already scored 29 runs off just 28 deliveries which included five 4’s coming off his blade. 
    Skipper Virat Kohli and the rest of the batting lineup will have to play at a high level if they wish to survive the first innings against the extremely confident Jofra Archer-led England bowling squad.

    The first Test match of the India-England series is not going in the direction Virat Kohli and the rest of the Indian cricket team would have liked as the visiting side has already established a mammoth total of 578-run for them to chase in the first innings.
    However, we know how to celebrate great cricket regardless of whether it comes from our own players or from the opposition.
    England's team hotel staff in Chennai welcomed Joe Root with a cake after his double century today. pic.twitter.com/9Jnb3QEWHx
    — Mufaddal Vohra (@mufaddal_vohra) February 6, 2021
    Following the end of match time on Day 2 of the Test, England captain Joe Root was welcomed with a cake by the staff members of the hotel the touring squad is staying at for the first two Tests.
    Root played a magnificent 218-run innings carrying on with the excellent form he had gained during the two-Test series in Sri Lanka. This also happened to be the Englishman’s 100th international Test making the 30-year old the very first batsman in international cricket to strike a double-ton in his 100th match.
    Accepting our hospitality, the England Cricket Board thanked the hotel staff and the BCCI via a tweet.
    Indian hospitality for @root66 - thank you 🇮🇳

    While the fans too were all-in for the celebration, some of them spoke about how the Men in Blue did not receive a fraction of the hospitality from the Australian side during their massive tour which included series in all three formats of the game.
    That's how you welcome a team and celebrate his knock even though He is from the opposition team. #INDvENG

    🏻 - the Aus and NZ women’s teams did their quarantine in the same hotel last year. Here’s a shock - we survived.... https://t.co/9YUTvZ8RqR
    — Alyssa Healy (@ahealy77) January 13, 2021
    Thing turned out to be rather ugly back in Australia, especially ahead of the fourth and final Test in Brisbane, when the Queensland government weren’t willing to reconsider their strict quarantine rules for the Men in Blue, even though they’d spent almost a month’s worth of time in isolation between the the 2020 edition of the Indian Premier League and the Australian series.

    At one point the BCCI even considered boycotting the final match which would have led to the series ending in a draw and the world missing out on one of the best Test match comebacks ever when India broke the hosts’ 33-year old undefeated record at the Gabba to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

    Ahead of the commencement of the four-match India-England Test series, a majority of the fans of the Indian cricket team were convinced that Kuldeep Yadav will finally get to see the greens of the field in the Chepauk clash in Chennai.
    But when the official Twitter handle of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) revealed India’s Playing XI mere hours ahead of toss, everyone was rather stunned to see the chinaman’s name missing from the roster, while one-Test old Shahbaz Nadeem was included rotation instead of him.
    ‘Voice of Indian cricket’ Harsha Bhogle even tried making sense of this move made by skipper Virat Kohli and head coach Ravi Shastri but ended up questioning the team’s commitment towards Yadav.
    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

    “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 (sic),” Bhogle tweeted.
    Now after the first two days of the first Test, the cameramen captured Yadav and his fellow bench-warmer Mohammed Siraj making the most out of their free time in the dressing room.
    However, there was this one moment which has become a huge point of discussion ahead of the inception of Day 3. 
    Watch: Mohammed Siraj Grabs Kuldeep Yadav By The Back Of His Neck, Video Goes Viral#MohammedSiraj #KuldeepYadav #INDvsENG #INDvsENG_2021 pic.twitter.com/Si90XR9Lni
    — tea20news_dotcom (@tea20newsdotcom) February 6, 2021
    According to the scenes, once every member of the Indian Playing XI had come back to the dressing room following the end of play on Day 2, Siraj was seen grabbing Yadav by his neck before saying something in his ear.
    The spinner on the other hand looked to be caught by surprise with Siraj’s actions.
    It did not take long for the fans to start speculating what was going on between the two teammates and whether the encounter was serious or in good fun.
    unacceptable behaviour from Mohammed Siraj grabbing kuldeep Neck you can't do this to anyone in anger team management should look into this @BCCI @ImRo45 @imVkohli #indiavsEngland #notobully
    — Aditya Rathi (@adityarathi36) February 6, 2021My question is why siraj tightly grabs kuldeep neck outside dressing room.
    — cricket enthusiastic (@AyushDe55914819) February 6, 2021@BCCI what's happening in team india first kuldeep yadav not selected,then siraj grabs his neck in anger,what action needs to be taken???
    — pankaj jain (@pankajjain012) February 6, 2021@BCCI look into Siraj and kuldeep yadav matter, why Siraj held him by his neck?
    — Akhilesh (@Akhiles50845088) February 7, 2021While it is normal for athletes to show some ‘aggressive love’ towards their teammates, the stunned reaction by Yadav makes the situation look more uncertain.
    The past two years have not been ideal for the young spin bowler who has not played in a single Test match since the red-ball contest against Tim Paine’s Australian side at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
    Yadav’s phenomenal five-wicket haul against the hosts played a crucial part in allowing the Men in Blue to win their very first Test series on Australia soil.
