    Rohit Sharma was the man who was recently crowned as the vice-captain of the Test squad for the Indian cricket team and was brought in the Playing XI to replace Test specialist Mayank Agarwal at the top of the batting order.
    And even though Sharma managed to stick to the crease for the first 27 overs of the Indian batting innings, Indian fans were quick to troll him as he got out just 26 runs off 77 deliveries.
    View this post on Instagram
    Sharma spent 14 days in isolated quarantine after he made his journey to Australia weeks after the rest of the squad because he was recovering from a hamstring injury. 
    Many doubted whether he was the right choice for such an important match given the fact that he’d not played international cricket for a long time. However, he looked really agile and active while fielding that came as a breath of fresh air for the Indian fans.
    Another criticism to choose Sharma over Agarwal was the former’s unimpressive batting average in the longest format of the game on foreign soil. Ahead of the Sydney Test, Sharma’s overseas batting average in 33 innings was 26.32, mere decimals above his score in the first innings on Friday.
    Here’s how the fans reacted to Sharma’s dismissal in the first innings:

    For all the R Madhavan fans, today is the day that they can celebrate as his film Maara is now premiering on Amazon Prime Video. Maara is the remake of Malayalam hit Charlie, which was directed by Martin Prakkat. The 2015 film became a big achievement for Dulquer Salmaan’s career as it became a huge hit critically and commercially.
    It follows the story of Paaru (Shraddha Srinath) who finds a diary full of sketches in her apartment. Moved by the artwork, she sets out on a journey to track down the artist Maaru (R Madhavan).


    Describing the film, R Madhavan said in a statement, "The role of my character has been crafted with foremost importance given to the honesty in the relationships he shares with others. And that trait makes the person as somebody that the audience falls in love with instantly. You can feel him touching lives without actually putting in an effort. To me that was the essence of this guy which got me excited to play him. The film revolves around these relationships and the beauty in sharing experiences. It's a very sweet world to be in."
    As the trailer promised that it's going to be a feel-good story, it has lived up to the expectations of the people who have flooded Twitter with positive reactions. People even went on to say that it looks like an original movie despite being a remake.
    #Maara Looks like Perfect Orginal

    Doesn't look like a remake @ShraddhaSrinath You Stealed the Show & @ActorMadhavan sollave venam as usual Rocked

    21-year-old Shubman Gill is quickly becoming one of the favourite newcomers in international cricket and his calm and composed batting under pressure during the third Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
    Having created a solid 70-run partnership with vice-captain Rohit Sharma at the top of the batting order, Gill has managed to hold his own against some of the most dominating in the game right now, including Mitch Starc and Pat Cummins.

    — Dil Dil Williamson (@ArjunNamboo) January 8, 2021
    In the middle of Gill’s innings, Australian cricketer Marnus Labuschagne wished to strike up a conversation with him, maybe a way to distract him and sneak a wicket?
    The Aussie fielder who was standing at short leg, right next to the batter, asked him who his favourite cricketer is at the moment.
    Marnus just wants to know who Gill's favourite player is! #AUSvIND pic.twitter.com/VvW7MixbQR
    — cricket.com.au (@cricketcomau) January 8, 2021
    Labuschagne even tried to recommend a couple of Indian legends of the game but a shy yet focused Gill managed to sneak in a reply.
    “I will tell you after the ball,” he said coyly.
    After 28 overs, Gill’s score stands at an undefeated 43* off 91 deliveries with seven fours coming off his bat. Some great cricket analysts are already extremely impressed with the batsman’s professionalism and textbook technique.
    For someone playing only his 2nd test match @RealShubmanGill looks very assured at the wicket. Good solid defence, positive stroke play and clarity of thought. Definitely has a very bright future for India in all the 3 formats. #AUSvsIND

    As stylish as he looks, KGF actor Yash is immensely popular among Kannada audiences and has, in fact, already established himself as a star with a few hits to his credit.

    As we already know, his last film KGF went on to become a pan-Indian hit and the actor has expanded his market beyond Kannada industry. With his phenomenal acting streak, he has cemented his position as the next bankable big star from the south.
    Today, on the occasion of his 34th birthday, here we take you through some of the lesser-known interesting facts about Yash, who is also popularly known as ‘rocking star’:
    © Facebook/TheOfficialYash
    Hails From A Humble Background

    Yash, who hails from a small town in Hassan district of Karnataka, was born as Naveen Kumar Gowda into a typical middle-class family, with his father working as a bus driver in KSRTC transport service. 
    After completing his education in Mysore, Yash moved to Bengaluru to pursue his acting dreams and soon joined the popular Benaka theatre troupe formed by renowned dramatist BV Karanth. 
    In one of his interviews, Yash had said his father continues working as a bus driver even today and that’s what keeps him grounded. 
    During the pre-release event of KGF, SS Rajamouli said, “I was amazed after knowing that Yash is the son of a bus driver. I’m told that his father works as a bus driver even today. To me, Yash’s father is the real star more than the actor.” 
    Started His Career As A TV ActorBefore venturing into cinema, Yash began his showbiz journey with television serial Nanda Gokula followed by a couple of more shows. 
    He initially started off playing supporting roles, before becoming a huge star, and his first major break came in the form of a cameo appearance in 2007 Kannada film Jambada Hudugi.
    © Facebook/TheOfficialYash
    Marriage To Radhika PanditFor the unversed, Yash is married to actor Radhika Pandit and the couple also has two kids. 
    They met each other for the first time on the sets of the tele serial Nanda Gokula. 
    Both Yash and Radhika have founded Yasho Marga Foundation which aims in helping the needy. The couple has also invested Rs 4 crore towards the restoration of the lakes in Koppal district. 
    Highest Paid Kannada Actor In the span of a decade, Yash has garnered an immense fan base across the places and has grown on to become one of the highest-paid Kannada actors. 
    Following the phenomenal success of KGF, which is Kannada cinema’s most expensive project, Yash is said to be drawing a remuneration of Rs 15 crore per project. 
    First Kannada Actor With A Rs 200 Crore Film With KGF, which enjoyed a pan-Indian release, Yash became the first Kannada actor to register Rs 200 crore grosser films. 
    Meanwhile, KGF 2 is slated for release later this year and is expected to do bigger business than the first part. 

    The makers believe it could be Kannada cinema’s maiden Rs 500 crore grosser.

    As the saying goes that  'everything is fair in love and war' , a Chhattisgarh man has just proved that right. Well, as 'dabangg' as anyone could ever get, this man married two women at the same time in the same “mandap” in presence of family members and villagers with all the rituals and formalities. 
    The 24-year-old Chandu Maurya, as per the news reports, solemnised his marriage with the two women, both his lovers, at a ceremony attended by 500 people on January 5, HT reported.
    “I decided to marry both of them because they both loved me. I can’t betray them. They agreed they both will live with me forever,” Chandu told the newspaper.  Meanwhile a video from the wedding ceremony and the invitation card of the function have gone viral on social media.
    Here’s the most unusual love story
    Maurya, a marginal farmer and laborer in Maoist-affected Bastar district, said he had fallen in love with Sundari Kashyap, 21, in Tokapal area when he had gone there to install electricity poles. The two planned to marry each other, but a year later, Haseena Baghel entered the life of Maurya. The 20-year-old was attending a wedding in his village Tikralohnga when the two met and fell in love.
    HT reported that Maurya told Haseena that he was already in a relationship but that did not stop her from wanting a relationship with him. “Both Haseena and Sundari came to know about each other and agreed to have a relationship with me,” he said. 
    Well, it didn’t stop there. In fact, the three also started living together at Maurya’s house, where he lives with his parents and two siblings. The family members of Haseena came to attend the marriage ceremony but Sundari’s family skipped the function, said Chandu.
    Did you know this is not the first time that a man has married two women at the same time? A man in Madhya Pradesh has married two women at the same ceremony last year. In 2020, Sandeep Uike, a resident of Madhya Pradesh's Betul, had married two women at a ceremony on July 8. One of the women was Uike’s girlfriend and the other was a bride chosen by his parents. The wedding was held with the approval of all three families.

    WhatsApp recently updated its terms of service that forces users to accept giving personal information to other Facebook-owned services that compromise your privacy. Since data is shared with other Facebook services, the company might “use the information we receive from them, and they may use the information we share with them, to help operate, provide, improve, understand, customize, support, and market our Services and their offerings, including the Facebook Company Products,”
    That kind of makes sense since there are rumours of WhatsApp serving ads to its users within the app. Facebook is also looking to merge the application with Facebook Messenger and Instagram. The data that is stored on their servers can also be given to the government without your permission in case of an “out-of-ordinary” event.
    Having said that, if you prefer to keep your data private and do not wish to see ads in the application, there are plenty of alternatives you can look at. Here are the best alternatives to WhatsApp that maintains your privacy and keeps your information secure. 
    1. Signal  © Twitter/Olhar Digital
    Signal is probably the most secure messaging app that is available to use for free. The application also offers voice and video calling similar to WhatsApp and is extremely easy to use, Every message is encrypted and is susceptible to hackers. The messaging app also has a disappearing text feature where a message can be automatically deleted after setting a timer. The auto-deleting feature ensures even more privacy. The only thing that you might miss is animated emojis as the app currently doesn’t support it.

    Telegram is the most popular alternative to WhatsApp with over 200 million users at the moment. The app can work across multiple platforms and offers end-to-end encryption for voice calls. Similar to Signal Telegram also offers disappearing messages after a certain time. Telegram also supports stickers, animated emojis, GIFs and all multimedia file sharing. Telegram also features channels where users can update on just about anything. 

    3. Threema © Threema
    Threema is yet another private messaging app that auto-deletes messages as soon as they have been delivered. The app also stores contact lists and group information on your phone and not in the cloud. You use an 8-digit Threema ID instead of a phone number to communicate with people. You can also verify contacts using unique QR codes. Three also provides end-to-end encryption for messages, voice calls, file sharing and group chats. You can even password protect your chats which is a nifty feature to have if you don’t want people who have access to your phone reading messages.

    Ravindra Jadeja certainly made an impact on Day 2 of the third Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy at the Sydney Cricket Ground with his bowling and fielding prowess. However, the guy seems to be making fans Down Under with his grooming as well.
    Freelance presenter, journalist and commentator Melinda Farrell went on Twitter to voice her astute observation about the ongoing Test match between the two cricketing giants in Sydney, more specifically, that about Jadeja.
    One more important thing about Jadeja that I've observed this series. He now has the best hair in men's international cricket. I feel very strongly about this. Don't @ me. Unless you agree, of course. #AUSvIND
    — Melinda Farrell (@melindafarrell) January 8, 2021
    “One more important thing about Jadeja that I've observed this series. He now has the best hair in men's international cricket. I feel very strongly about this,” she tweeted.

    Her followers and some other fans of the game happened to agree with her:
    Not just hair, his beard too.
    His beard is best than his hair!!

    — AK (@rwamit) January 8, 2021One thing about Jadeja we all know. He would agree he has the best hair.
    — Chris Bingham (@binghach) January 8, 2021Belongs in a beach hut somewhere. Magnificent stuff
    — Oliver Jones (@oliverjones1988) January 8, 2021Ravindra Jadeja was clearly the best player in the Indian squad during Australia’s first batting innings. Having gone wicket-less on Day 1, the all-rounder scalped four of them on Friday followed by a staggering run-out to dismiss Steve Smith and wrap up their batting lineup for a total of 337.
    Indian commentator Harsha Bhogle described Jadeja as a ‘three dimensional player’ and could not have been more accurate. We have already seen his brilliance with the ball and on the field. Given his form with the bat in limited-overs cricket for the country during the Australia tour, he is expected to play a key role in India’s attempt to go 2-1 for the series.

    The man of the hour, Ravindra Jadeja could do no wrong on Day 2 of the third Test between India and Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground during the 2020-21 Border Gavaskar Trophy.
    After going wicketless on the opening day of the penultimate Test, Jadeja switched gears on Friday and went on a wicket-scalping spree with the ball.

    — @tul (@Atulecr) January 8, 2021
    Being in the highlights for removing the most important names of the Australian batting lineup from the crease, Jadeja went to work by dismissing Marnus Labuschagne on a brilliant catch of skipper Ajinkya Rahane on third slip.

    In the 77th over of the first innings, Jadeja got Matthew Wade’s wicket for cheap after Jasprit Bumrah secured the catch.

    After facing 12 deliveries, Australian pacer Pat Cummins could not hold his own against Jadeja who bowled him out for a duck in the 95th over.

     His final wicket of the day came seven overs later when he trapped Nathan Lyon for an LBW, also for a duck.
    However, Jadeja’s greatest highlight of the day came in the department he is most sought after for, his dominance as a fielder, of course. 
    Known to be one of the most impactful, accurate fielders in the game right now, Jadeja hit bullseye on a direct hit to dismiss the biggest Australian threat for the Men in Blue in Steve Smith.

    Smith, who had successfully achieved a much anticipated century of the Test, was now having fun on the field. Going for unorthodox shots (yes, even for him) and having hilarious no-calls for his partner Josh Hazlewood.
    But the fourth delivery of the 106th over made Smith push for a double as the ball rushed into Jadeja’s hand and before he knew it, the bails were ripped out of their place.
    While the umpire went upstairs for a review, Smith knew that his time on the field was done and started walking back to the locker room.
    During the match, Harsha Bhogle described Jadeja as a three-dimensional player and could not have been more accurate in his description of the Indian cricketer.
    @bhogleharsha used the phrase 3 Dimensional cricketer during commentary stint and for the first time the phrase was used very aptly and for the most deserved - Ravindra Jadeja. Thank you Harsha #AUSvIND
    — Prashanth Murittigge (@PrashanthMA) January 8, 2021
    Fans echoed Bhogle’s opinion on social media:
    Is there anything Sir Jadeja can’t do?

    The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) finally wrote to Cricket Australia seeking relaxation in the quarantine protocol ahead of the fourth and final Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy at the Brisbane Cricket Ground. 
    Reminding the hosting cricket board that the Men in Blue have already been under a 14-day hard quarantine at the very beginning of the tour, BCCI executive on Thursday wrote to CA chairman Earl Eddings.
    #INDvAUS #BrisbaneTest

    4th Test Impasse: @BCCI formally writes to @CricketAus on relaxation of Brisbane hard quarantine

    READ▶️https://t.co/8xcjbotCmx pic.twitter.com/nUUCzaPoE7
    — TOI Sports (@toisports) January 7, 2021
    The Memorandum of Understanding signed between the two boards before the tour began had no provisions mentioning a second hard quarantine.
    “The discussions are still on but today BCCI has formally sent a letter seeking relaxation of hard quarantine for its players if they are to have the match in Brisbane,” a senior BCCI official told PTI. “The MoU that was signed never mentioned about two hard quarantines. India have done one hard quarantine in Sydney (practice and back to hotel room).”
    BCCI’s Demand Under Brisbane Quarantine 
    #India to not travel to Brisbane if there's hard quarantine: BCCI to CA #News
    "It is too taxing for the boys, asking them to travel to Brisbane and be in the jail for another five days"

    The BCCI... - https://t.co/i211QnnWO3
    — IndianPremierLeague (@CricketT20IPL) January 7, 2021
    ”The BCCI’s demand is simple. The players want to mingle with each other inside the hotel bio-bubble like they did in the IPL. They want to have their meals together inside the hotel and also have the team meetings together. That’s not a big demand,” BCCI official informed.
    As per Cricket Australia’s communication, players staying on two separate floors of a hotel are not supposed to mingle until the quarantine gets lifted, a provision ridiculed by many.
    “The BCCI has told CA that the relaxation of the quarantine rules should be given in writing. During India’s hard quarantine in Sydney after reaching from UAE, there used to be police personnel in each floor ensuring that there is no breach of bio-safety protocols,” said the executive.
    “Hopefully, nothing of that sort will happen if the team travels to Brisbane. All we want is IPL style bio-bubble.”
    Worst Case Scenario
    What happens if Cricket Australia or the Queensland Government refused BCCI’s plea for relaxing the hard quarantine and put their foot down on the same set of rules that Team India had to follow in Sydney ahead of the tour?
    The worst case scenario therefore keeps both the sides in Sydney where the third Test is currently underway. However, it is believed that the two boards will try to come to an agreement and make the Gabba Test happen.
    In Conclusion
    The letter by the BCCI executive confirms that the Indian cricket team are not a bunch of rebels who were adamant on breaking the rules established by the Queensland government. They realise that the safety guidelines have been set in place for the better health of their citizens and they respect that.
    All they wish to do is be able to chat with their own teammates while staying inside the hotel and that does not seem to be that big a deal.
    Today I was asked about reports the Indian Cricket Team wants quarantine restrictions eased just for them, ahead of the upcoming Gabba Test. My response #Cricket #IndiavsAustralia @ICC @CricketAus pic.twitter.com/MV7W0rIntM
    — Ros Bates MP (@Ros_Bates_MP) January 3, 2021
    However, the comment made by Ros Bates , Member of the Queensland Legislative Assembly against the Indian squad does feel like a bit of an overreaction to the situation and as the BCCI expressed in the recent days, puts our players’ reputation in bad light.
