    The final day of the fourth Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia looked and felt like a battlefield for the Indian batsmen, especially Cheteshwar Pujara who suffered at least a dozen blows to his body while batting at the Brisbane Cricket Ground.
    With the mindset of winning the Gabba Test and snatching away the trophy from the hands of the touring Men in Blue, Josh Hazlewood and Co. were clearly in no mood to give our batsmen any breathing space.

    Bouncers, beamers and bodylining their opponents, the Australian bowling attack, which is amongst the deadliest in the world, had Pujara fall on the ground in pain, stunned by hits to the head and fixing his broken helmet throughout his time on the pitch.
    TV commentators, digital journalists and fans from all over the world were in absolute shock as they watched Pujara endure all the hits and Hazlewood’s sledging under pressure and calmly defend one ball after another while holding the bat with just four fingers.
    Ah Pujara! How the HELL is he still standing??? #AUSvIND

    In an interview with Hindustan Times , Pujara revisited all the injuries from the day.
    “The first one hit me just below my shoulder. There was one on the ribs. And one more from [Josh] Hazlewood below the shoulder again. That's when it started hurting a bit more because it was the same place.”
    But the one which made the composed giant fall on his knees came after the 125th ball he faced.
    Ouch! Pujara rips his glove off after copping one flush on the glove!

    “The most painful one was the ball that hit my finger, because I had already got hit on that finger during practice in Melbourne and had played the Sydney Test with that little bit of pain. I was a little concerned before the game started in Sydney, but things went really well. But the moment I got hit there again in Brisbane, I was in a lot of pain. I thought I had broken my finger.”
    Even then, the 33-year-old held his ground, scored a remarkable 56 off 211 agonising deliveries and made sure that Finisher Rishabh Pant was well set to drive the team to victory before he was finally trapped by ‘Man of the Series’ Pat Cummins on an LBW appeal in the 81st over.
    “If I'm a boxer, I want to see how much another player can punch me. Once he is done, that's when I want to start punching back. That is my game plan. You can punch me as long as you can. Then I'll show my punches. That is how I planned it,” said the Test veteran.

    Over 12 years ago, one of the best Bollywood films of all time - 3 Idiots gave the viewers one of the most iconic dialogues which enabled them to envision their future in a whole new way.
    “Success ke peeche mat bhaago, excellence ka peecha karo. Success jhak maarke tumhare peeche ayegi (Don’t run after success, chase exellence instead. Success will follow you),” Aamir Khan’s character Ranchoddas "Rancho" Shamaldas Chanchad had said in the movie.

    It was not only motivational but also made a lot of sense, which drove numerous students towards excellence and success was theirs at the end of the day.
    West Indies batsman Jermaine Blackwood is one such student but the only difference is that his Rancho was Indian skipper Virat Kohli who’d given him similar advice, moulded in the context of cricket.
    In a conversation with ESPNcricinfo, Blackwood spoke about how a conversation with Kohli allowed him to look at red-ball cricket from a different perspective which unlocked his true potential as a batsman and achieve great heights in the longest format of the game.

    I talked to Virat Kohli a few times as well on social media. The last time India toured the Caribbean, I had a chance to talk to him in Jamaica when I was there subbing,” he said in the interview, talking about how he was unable to turn his half centuries into centuries.
    "So after the game, I just had a small conversation. I asked him about how I have a lot of half-centuries and [only] one century. He just said, 'What will you do when you score a century? How many deliveries did you face?' I said I faced 212 balls,” said Blackwood.

    "He said, 'That's it, once you can bat some balls, you're going to score runs'. So I took a big thing from that. After that conversation, I tell myself that once I can bat over 200 or 300 balls, the way I bat, I can score runs regardless of who I am playing against or where I am playing," he added.
    Instead of trying to score as many runs as possible, Kohli suggested that he should focus more on batting for longer periods of time and the runs will flow in automatically.

    Now, over the last two Test series the Windies have played against big teams like England and New Zealand, Blackwood remained the highest run-scorer for his side. It is safe to say that Kohli’s words were truly of wisdom, then.
    The world audience of cricket gave a lot of attention to the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy especially because it marked the resumption of Indian cricket after the coronavirus lockdown. The heroic comeback and the exciting end to the series for the Men in Blue restored some (if not all) of Test cricket’s interest which had begun to fade away with time and the rise in popularity of the shorter formats.

    Virat Kohli however, has always been a strong ambassador of red-ball and considered it to be the true test of a cricketer’s ability on the field. It is true that he is a brilliant athlete and a gifted scorer in limited-overs matches but his prowess, textbook technique and strong mentality is put on display when he plays for his country in the white kit.

    Even though the COVID-19 pandemic has kept most of Microsoft’s workforce at home, the Redmond giant unveiled its latest office in Noida that was inspired by the Taj Mahal. In our opinion, if you’ve got to welcome back your workforce to office, this is the ultimate way to do it. The new office brings together the local culture influence and tech-driven infrastructure into one of the most iconic office designs we’ve seen lately.

    The new office is in the top three floors of a sixty-floor building and is Microsoft’s new India Development Center. The office draws inspiration from History with heavy influence from Mughal architecture, using perforated stone or latticed screen, arches in hallways, domed ceilings and is painted in Ivory white. 

    “It’s really about two aspects,” says Rajiv Kumar, managing director, Microsoft IDC, and a Microsoft veteran of nearly 29 years. “One is to build a world-class product development organization in India. It’s a dream I had when I came back to India from Redmond in 2005 when there was nothing.”
    “In order to attract the best talent from the country, you have to go to the places where they are,” says Kumar. “So, we started in the middle of the country when we opened Hyderabad center, and then went south with the Bengaluru center. My vision to create the Noida center was to attract the best talent that graduates from some of the world-class engineering and management institutions in the country’s north.”

    The new office not only uses the classic design, but it also incorporates modern workplace designs and uses state-of-the-art equipment. The facility will also accommodate the Xbox team and will be the first campus in India to host a team dedicated to the gaming division.

    The company also noted that the project is in line with its commitment to sustainability. Moreover, the entire office was built to spur the local economy where all the materials such as marble, fabrics and stonework were sourced from nearby regions. The facility also has energy and water conservation infrastructure to reduce its carbon footprint. "Our base building is LEED platinum rated, meaning it caters to the highest sustainability standards of construction and operation," the company said in the blog post.

    Vikas Gupta is one of the most talked about contestants in Salman Khan-hosted Bigg Boss 14. In yet another controversy, Vikas, in one of the recent episodes, claimed that his parents want his property. 
    Now, days after that, his mother Sharda Gupta has said she just wants him to "forget everything and move on happily in life".
    Earlier this week, Vikas claimed on an episode that his parents do not publicly go against him as they want his property.
    Speaking to TOI, his mother had been quoted as saying: "Fights take place in every family and it is totally okay. Nevertheless, I want to meet my son and surprise him. It’s just that I want him to forget everything and move on happily in life and not come under anybody’s influence."
    Earlier, she also told SpotboyE, “I have no clue what Arshi Khan is talking about. Yes, I did speak to her two-and-a-half years back but there was nothing personal that I shared with her that she is using it against Vikas. Don’t know it might be her game plan but I never spoke anything with Arshi Khan whatsoever that she is accusing Vikas and there is such a big issue made out of it."
    Vikas, however, had said, “I asked them to sell our house in Dehradun, and instead of giving me my share, just use it for her treatment. I had no other option, I had loans amounting to ₹1.8 crore!” He also claimed that his parents are not going against him in public as they are eyeing his 'property'.
    Talking to Aly Goni on the show, Vikas had said, “Imagine the things I have gone through. My parents had clearly said ‘agar hum khule media k samne agar Arshi ka saath dete hain to Vikas ke property me hissa nahi le paenge’ (We will lose claim on Vikas’ property if we go against him in the media). I am sorry to be saying this, and God forbid, but normally kids do not go before parents!”
    Meanwhile, Sharda has been seeking votes for her son on social media.
    Who is your favourite contestant in the show? Are you rooting for Vikas Gupta? Let us know in the comments below.

    The 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy has quickly become one of the most memorable series for the Indian cricket team and it’s fans from all over the world given the miraculous comeback during the four-match journey and the ultimate win.
    But exactly how unlikely was it for the visiting side to get the upper hand during the latest Test series on Australian soil? Well, if you had to quantify the probability in numbers, it had to be 1 percent.
    #AUSvIND Smart predictable technology gone wrong... #WinViz discounting the ‘Pant’ factor! #BharatArmy #TeamIndia #COTI 🇮🇳 pic.twitter.com/Ax6NEF83dH

    The official Twitter handle of The Bharat Army, the proud and official Team India Supporters Group globally, recently shared a picture of a report shared by WinViz, a cricketing intelligence technology used to predict the probable outcome of a match or a series.
    During the fourth and final Test of the series at the Brisbane Cricket Ground, the report explained that India had all but one percent chances of sneaking a win while Australia’s winning percentage was at 29%. WinViz thought that there was a 70% chance that the match would end in a draw and the series would conclude in a tie with India retaining the title.

    Regardless of how sophisticated the technology might have been, it overlooked a very big variable in the equation - the ‘Pant’ factor.

    After Shubman Gill’s phenomenal 91-run innings and a quick cameo by skipper Ajikya Rahane, it was Rishabh Pant who constructed a heroic 61-run partnership with a broken Cheteshwar Pujara before carrying the Men in Blue to victory all the way through with a boundary and three overs to spare.
    small things like these makes us feel more and more proud of the Victory down under. @cricvizanalyst @ChuckersPie @ESPNcric_stats https://t.co/xsUQ4Sc5Vt

    The kind of innings the 23-year-old stitched while ensuring to stick to the crease till the end, threw all the statistics, all the data out of the window. Australian bowling attack led by Pat Cummins and Nathan Lyon tried all lines, lengths and variations but nothing shook the southpaw’s resolve.
    “From when I walked out to bat in Brisbane, it was already in my head that we had to win the match. I never gave a second thought for a draw,” Pant said in an interview with Hindustan Times a couple of days ago.

    “I was trying to keep us, as a team, in the game for as long as possible. Puji bhai and I had short targets in mind – 15-20 runs here and there and play till the end of the session and things like that,” he added.
