From Ravichandran Ashwin’s tactical retired out to Marcus Stonis’ batting position, the Match 20 of the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2022) between Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) gave the fans plenty of things to talk about. The entertainment was not limited to the field. Even the commentators were in a jovial mood during the match and we saw that during the hilarious banter inside the comm box between two renowned commentators. Indian batting great Sunil Gavaskar poked his fellow commentator from England Alan Wilkins over the issue of the world-famous Kohinoor diamond which now sits on the throne of Queen Elizabeth 2.

Kangana Ranaut To Play Sita, Not Kareena Kapoor Khan & Now People Are Confused
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Kangana Ranaut is now all set to play the role of Sita in a film titled Sita: The Incarnation. This film was earlier offered to Kareena Kapoor Khan. View this post on Instagram Sita: The Incarnation will be directed by Alaukik Desai. Kangana Ranaut also recently shared the poster of the upcoming film on her Instagram stories and thanked the director for giving her this opportunity. Kangana took to Instagram stories and posted a screenshot of the tweet and wrote, “What was a mirage, is now clarity. A dream of a pious character never explored is now a reality. I am ecstatic to bring Kangana Ranaut on board as Sita. This pious journey will change the course of how we perceive our mythology. Thank you SS Studio for your immense support and belief," the director tweeted. Kangana shared a screenshot of the tweet and wrote.” View this post on Instagram According to the reports, Kareena Kapoor Khan had demanded Rs 12 crore for the film. The actor in a recent interview didn’t comment on whether she said so. She said in an interview with The Guardian, “I make it quite clear what I want and I think that respect should be given. It’s not about being demanding, it’s about being respectful towards women. And I think things are kind of changing.” She added, "Just a few years ago, no one would talk about a man or woman actually getting equal pay in a movie. Now there are a lot of us being very vocal about it." Here’s what people have to say about this- #KanganaRanaut appears to have won the competition to play #Sita. #Kangana is scheduled to play the mythical character in her forthcoming film The Incarnation – SITA, directed by Alaukik Desai.

After a horrible start, Team India is trying hard to stage a comeback in the third Test against England at Headingley. The hosts took a mammoth 354-run lead in the first innings and the visitors, despite putting up a solid display in their second innings, still needed 139 more runs to even on England’s first innings total. While the majority of the blame for this situation lies on the top-order batters, Indian bowlers didn’t start off well which allowed England’s top-order to flourish, with their first four batters scoring majority of their runs. © Instagram/Ravichandran Ashwin Despite knowing that Leeds pitch would offer more turn than Lord’s, Kohli and team management decided to retain the same bowling line-up that guided them to a remarkable victory in the previous match and went in with four pacers and one spinner in Ravindra Jadeja. Clearly, when it comes to bowling skills, there is no doubt Ravichandran Ashwin is the most lethal spinner not just in India but world cricket. But he has only warmed the bench so far because team management has preferred Jadeja to him because of his skills with the bat. © AP Waiting for his chance, Ashwin took to social media to share a couple of pictures where he was seen batting left-handed in the nets and many implied that the pictures were an indirect dig at Jadeja, who has been inconsistent with both bat and ball so far in the series. “The desire to ignite something different every day never burns out,” Ashwin wrote in the caption, which gave air to the speculations even more. The desire to ignite something different every day never burns out. pic.twitter.com/6U9s7LZpP6 — Mask up and take your vaccine (@ashwinravi99) August 26, 2021 Someone has rightly said ‘don’t always believe everything that you see’ and this adage makes complete sense in this case. Trying to troll Jadeja ?? Not sure you are doing it or not. But if you do so that's doesn't sounds good for your fame. Yes it hurts to sit outside even after being in the best player of the team. But it takes huge heart to support team in every cause!!!! — Maharaj Patil (@IamViruLover) August 26, 2021I want you in the team but don't behave like our past toxic cricketers — VAg (@itzz_VAg) August 26, 2021When legspinners were picked ahead of him, he practiced leg spinners. When Jadeja is picked ahead of him, he is practicing left handed batting... He tries everything to get a place in the XI. @imVkohli & @RaviShastriOfc - #Ashwin is not a bench player, He is a benchmark player. — Kiran Kumar (KK) (@Kiran_Kumar_KK) August 27, 2021Next level trolling and I endorse it. — Sanket D. Patil (@sankulyaa) August 26, 2021 At first glance it sure gave us the impression that Ashwin was practicing left-handed in the nets but a closer look at the hoardings in the background and the sticker on his bat were enough to tell us that the veteran off-spinner had played with the minds of millions of his fans, just like he does with the opposition batsmen. Warming the bench in the first three Tests, Ashwin perhaps missed fooling the opposition batsmen and decided to trick his followers and passed with flying colours. However, the question still remains at large is what he intended to do by sharing these mirror images. Was he just trying to fool people or was he trying to convey something else? © Reuters With Jadeja only managing to take two wickets in five innings and not scoring enough runs with the bat, the team management will certainly have to revisit their strategy as they can’t keep a match-winner like Ashwin on the bench for far too long.

In another bizarre story, a man was left heartbroken when he found out that his son was actually his uncle after finding out that his girlfriend was having an affair with his own grandfather. Recently, TikTok user @stacks1400 had shared in his Tik Tok video that his girlfriend was having an affair with his grandfather while he was living with him. He said in the video, "Found out my son was really my uncle. My granddad was f***ing my girl the whole time we were staying with him.” © Unsplash The man shared the video along with a caption saying, "Can’t believe I expected more from a man that had a whole other family around the corner from my granny house.” He was suggesting that his grandfather has a long history of infidelity in the family. The video has now gone viral on the internet and people are showering their support for him. A user said, "I'm so sorry for you, I know it seems dark now. Get some time away for yourself. You didn't deserve this, but there is someone else out there for you." Another wrote, "Don't stop loving that young man, it's your time to stand tall in all this. Break the cycle and love that boy, regardless of what title he has." © Unsplash Also, a lot of people asked him how he found out that his girlfriend was cheating on him. So, he posted another video explaining the same. He said he picked up his girlfriend’s phone while she was in the shower and his son was playing. He discovered years worth of messages and pictures including explicit stuff. He also said, "My dad never liked his dad." © Unsplash Later, he also posted a video saying that he will treat his son as his son and his relationship with his girlfriend wouldn’t change just because they found out about his girlfriend’s affair.

The buzz around the World Test Championship final has surpassed all expectations and why wouldn't it be! The one-off encounter has so much at stake and there’s no room for error. Ahead of the huge clash, the cricket pundits are into overdrive and have been making predictions about who are the favourites and the probable playing XIs, among other things. Famous cricket analyst and commentator Harsha Bhogle, in the latest episode of Cricbuzz Chatter, revealed which team starts as the favourites and what could be the probable XI of the two sides. Here are the five key takeaways from Harsha Bhogle’s analysis: India Should Start As Favourites © Instagram Indian Cricket Team Always a force to reckon with at home, the Virat Kohli-led side has changed this norm and have started winning on foreign soil. In the last two years, India didn’t lose a single Test series at home and lost only one series away from home -- against New Zealand. In Bhogle’s opinion, India’s superb overseas performance is what gives them the edge over their counterparts and they should start the match as favourites. “If you look at the last two years, most of the teams have performed well at home and it’s their away performances that determine who has the better side. India won two series away from home and lost one. So going by all that, India should start as favourites. This Indian team is also special in a sense that they are never short of confidence,” Bhogle said. Surprised With India’s WTC Final Squad © Instagram KL Rahul While naming the 15-member squad, India picked five fast bowlers and only two openers, which left Bhogle surprised. Arguing that KL Rahul should’ve been included in the side as the reserve opener, Bhogle said he was afraid that the team might suffer if something happened to any of the two openers. “The only thing that surprised me a little bit was the inclusion of an extra fast bowler in Umesh Yadav, whereas I thought KL Rahul would make the cut as a reserve opener just in case if something happens to Rohit Sharma or someone else. It was something which I couldn’t understand but then again it could be that India is planning on playing four-pace bowlers,” said Bhogle who was surprised with the team selection. No Doubt India Will Play 3 Pacers, 2 Spinners © Reuters Talking about India’s playing XI, Bhogle said that since none of India’s fast bowlers are known for their batting, he was confident that India would go with two spinners and three pacers to strengthen their batting. “The difference between India and New Zealand is that out of their four fast bowlers, two are capable with the bat. So, I have no doubt that India will play two spinners and two pacers because both these spinners extend the tale and can contribute with the bat,” he opined India In Driver’s Seat If Pitch Starts Turning © Twitter Cricket Australia As suggested by Indian legend Sunil Gavaskar before, Harsha Bhogle also believes that the pitch at the Ageas Bowl generally could start turning later in the game and if that’s the case, it might give India’s spin-duo of Ashwin and Jadeja the edge over their counterparts. “If it doesn’t rain much, this surface in Southampton starts turning towards the end of third day or early fourth day and if the pitch is even a little bit dry and it starts turning, it will be a huge advantage for India,” said Bhogle, when asked about the nature of pitch in Southampton. Tussle Between Mohammed Siraj & Ishant Sharma View this post on Instagram Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami are almost certain to start the game, but the spot for the third front-line seamer is still up for grabs and the ‘Voice of Cricket’ said if he were to make choice he would pick Siraj over Ishant because of his ability to swing the ball. Bhogle said after 2018, Ishant Sharma has transformed himself into a different bowler altogether and his stats have been exemplary, something which is very hard to ignore. “The energy and confidence that comes from watching Siraj bowl is something else, hence it’s a neck-to-neck contest between the two players and it all depends on what Kohli thinks, but if it were to him he would go with Siraj,” said the commentator.

Baba Ramdev Now Says He Will Take COVID-19 Vaccine & We Are Confused
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Yoga Guru Ramdev has been making the headlines for calling allopathy ‘stupid science’. However, Ramdev said he will take the vaccine against COVID-19. Now, this comes as his attempt to bury the hatchet with Indian Medical Association. Not only this, he now has become an advocate for COVID-19 Vaccination and is asking everyone to get the vaccine. Ramdev also praised PM Narendra Modi’s announcement of a free, centralized Covid-19 vaccination drive which will begin on June 21, which is also the International Yoga Day. © BCCL His current statements mark a complete shift from his earlier statement where he questioned that if the vaccines were protecting one from COVID-19 then why did thousands of doctors contract the infection and died even after getting vaccinated. And earlier, he said he has the dual cover of Yoga and Ayurveda and has not taken the vaccination yet. Yoga guru claiming Allopathy as stupid science. This pandemic brings new shock every day. pic.twitter.com/1W9ojVOIGY — Subhasree Ray (@DrSubhasree) May 21, 2021 In a video that went viral earlier, he said, “It is shocking that Remdesvir failed, steroids failed and now plasma therapy has also been banned.” He also said, “The medicines doctors are giving patients for getting the fever down such as Fabiflu is not doing any good to them.” He also expressed, “we have lost lakhs of people due to allopathic medicines and not due to shortage of oxygen.” Indian Medical Association (IMA) sent a legal notice to yoga guru Ramdev over his alleged statements against allopathy. — ANI (@ANI) May 22, 2021 Later, the Indian Medical Association sent a legal notice to Baba Ramdev over his alleged statements and defaming scientific medicines. However, Patanjali Yogpeeth Trust refuted allegations that the yoga guru has misled people by making "unlearned" statements against allopathy and defamed scientific medicine. Now, his stance has completely changed. What do you think? Let us know in the comment section below! View the full article -
Ever since the world saw the outbreak of the deadly Covid-19 virus in Wuhan, China more than one and a half years ago, people's lives have been thrown under the bus as there have barely been any signs of normalcy anywhere, especially in India. © iStock During that time the virus has mutated and been named the UK variant, the Africa variant, or the Indian variant, on the basis of the country they were first discovered in. © iStock However, now, the World Health Organization (WHO), who first brought us news regarding the existence of the virus, has decided to make things simpler for people. It has decided that the key virus strains, instead of being called by the name of the country, will now be labeled using the letters of the Greek alphabet in order for people to find it easy to say it and remember. Today WHO has announced a new naming system for key #COVID19 variants. The labels are based on the Greek alphabet (i.e. Alpha, Beta, Gamma, etc), making them simple, easy to say and remember. https://t.co/aYCZfspZyb pic.twitter.com/Gxt14fwVqF — World Health Organization (WHO) (@WHO) May 31, 2021 "WHO has assigned simple, easy to say and remember labels for key variants of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, using letters of the Greek alphabet," said the organisation on its website. The labels do not replace existing scientific names, which convey important scientific information & will continue to be used in research. The naming system aims to prevent calling #COVID19 variants by the places where they are detected, which is stigmatizing & discriminatory. pic.twitter.com/MwWGGMXPjn — World Health Organization (WHO) (@WHO) May 31, 2021You are welcome! pic.twitter.com/5MHDwvirB2 — SJ Ahmed (@SuhaibJAhmed) June 1, 2021 So, instead of the virus strains being called the Indian strain or the UK strain, people will now refer to them as Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and so on. Easy to remember, right? One of the key reasons behind the decision to rename the strains is down to ending stigma and discrimination for a country where the virus has been detected. "People often resort to calling variants by the places where they are detected, which is stigmatizing and discriminatory. To avoid this and to simplify public communications, WHO encourages national authorities, media outlets, and others to adopt these new labels," said WHO. WHO encourages countries and others to adopt these names as they will ease public discussions about global #COVID19 Variants of Concern and Interest. More:https://t.co/aYCZfspZyb — World Health Organization (WHO) (@WHO) May 31, 2021 While it may be a move in the right direction, remembering the variants on the basis of greek letters is surely a confusing prospect and people on social media surely had a lot to say about it. Easy to remember! You must be joking . A silly and bizarre exercise. Quite unnecessary. New variants will keep evolving that will make Greek numbers just that , Greek to me. — deepaknatarajan (@deepakdeepak) June 1, 2021Hm yes I can see this will lead to confusion and people traveling more to places they shouldn't — Andrea (@CallForCries) June 1, 2021So now they're all Greek variants - so much for not stigmatising individual countries — Martin Sansom (@antiquestwins) June 1, 2021I had to check to see if was April 1st, how many people outside science know order of Greek alphabet, it will just confuse or is that the purpose? — Patrick Mc Gowan (@pzjmcg_gowan) May 31, 2021It’s not simple or easier. You’ll have to then associate a letter with a variant. May make sense in scientific/lab field, however as clinicians, much easier to keep the origin-name linked. @WHO badly led. And it’s not tue first time. — Jesus Isea de la Viña (@jiseav) May 31, 2021When a product has been in the market for some time, marketing departments recommend re-branding to refresh interest and boost sales. I mean seriously WTF — ~MS~ (@symphonicall) June 1, 2021Hey @WHO, maybe instead of focusing on the name of the virus and its variants, we focus more on the tackling it? Just a thought. — Crypto Dizzle (@DizzleCrypto) May 31, 2021This really is when you know that scientists don't want covid to go away because they won't be thought about again. "Let's stay current - let's rename all the variants so that people have no idea what we're talking about anymore! And let's make them Greek..for no reason!" — Girl (@userunknown200) June 1, 2021@WHO How about working on finding the Origin of this Virus?

He also said that due to his penance, the country is getting good rains. Rameshchandra Fefar is a superintendent engineer with the Sardar Sarovar Punarvasvat Agency (SSPA), and was recently served with a show-cause notice. © BCCL As per the notice, Fefar only attended his Vadodara office for 16 days during the last eight months. The notice read as, “Such unauthorized absence does not suit a gazetted officer. Work of the agency is getting hampered because of your absence.” However, we all know what Fefar replied after the notice came. View the full article

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) recently revealed their annual list of grades in which the members of the Indian cricket team are allotted and get paid accordingly. There are four basic categories and associated money attached to them: ALERT: BCCI announces annual player retainership 2020-21 - #TeamIndia (Senior Men) for the period from October 2020 to September 2021. Payment structure: Grade A+ : INR 7 Cr Grade A : INR 5 Cr Grade B : INR 3 Cr Grade C : INR 1 Crhttps://t.co/WgtmO7pIOv pic.twitter.com/ycnPcXPYJu — BCCI (@BCCI) April 15, 2021 A+ Category: Rs. 7 Crore A Category: Rs. 5 Crore B Category: Rs. 3 Crore C Category: Rs. 1 Crore Players are put in their respective categories based on their performances in the past year and how much value did they add to the Men in Blue’s winning ways with their efforts on the field. However, upon looking at some of the names being allotted too high or too low in the categories, the fans of the Men in Blue weren’t too happy with the final decision taken by the Indian cricket board. Here is the rise and fall of 5 Indian cricketers’ salaries this year that has confused and angered the fans: Bhuvneshwar Kumar (Demoted From A Category To B Category): View this post on Instagram Troubled with a severe injury that he picked during the 2020 edition of the Indian Premier League, Kumar was expected to make his return to competitive cricket no sooner than IPL 2021. However, the pacer not only recovered faster than expected but also made quite the impact during India’s home series against England. Nonetheless, his contract was reduced from A category (Rs. 5 Crore) to B category (Rs. 3 Crore) from 2020 to 2021, respectively. This is really pathetic...I mean,placing such a fantastic player like Bhuvi amongst players like umesh isn't just done..Bhuvi made a great comeback in int'l cricket.Also he can bowl in all 3 formats but at the contrast Ishant recieved grade b contract being only test player — Tarini Prasad Beura (@I_m_Tarini) April 15, 2021@BCCI Bhuvi in B grade.. Absurd.. Are u guys serious? Doped — Ezhil (@Ezhil_ezzy) April 15, 2021@BhuviOfficial should deserve A+ , I don't understand what made u to put him in B #VikrantRona #KicchaSudeep #kotigobba3 — Bigg Boss Kiccha (@BiggBossKiccha1) April 15, 2021@BhuviOfficial will be soon at a better grade-- the place he deserves🇮🇳 — Tweeter07 (@Tweeter074) April 15, 2021Wriddhiman Saha Remains In B Category: View this post on Instagram Despite not being able to perform consistently in the longest format of the game, and being replaced by Rishabh Pant as the main wicket-keeper for the squad across red and white ball cricket, Wriddhiman Saha’s position in the B Category remains intact and will allow him a massive Rs. 3 Crore paycheque for this year. Saha and mayank should be in C grade...shreyas iyer and washington sundar should be in B grade — Rajdeep Deshmukh (@rajdeepd9) April 15, 2021Not an hater, but what is Saha doing in any of these lists???? Don’t even remember his contribution in any format — Nikhil (@RightAbveYou) April 16, 2021Like seriously saha in b🤣 — Iamsanskruti (@iamsanskruti) April 15, 2021Yuzvendra Chahal (Demoted From B Category To C Category): View this post on Instagram Regardless of the fact that Yuzvendra Chahal did not have the best cricketing season between 2019 and 2020, he still remains a top selection as a spinner for the Virat Kohli squad. Although all-rounders such as Axar Patel and Washington Sundar have done well to show their talent on both sides of the pitch and might endanger Chahal’s spot in the roster in the series to come. Iyer and Chahal deserve Grade B contract.....Iyer is the slotted no. 4 for India and Chahal is the lead spinner in limited overs — Mohit Babu (@mohitbabu_iitp) April 15, 2021Why lower grade contracts for @BhuviOfficial, @yuzi_chahal, @ShreyasIyer15?? @SGanguly99 u did not get ur commission or just overdose of elements?? — Idontcare (@Idontca49297118) April 15, 2021Chahal in grade C — 🇮🇳Pradip Das🇮🇳 (@Pradip_me2012) April 15, 2021Chahal deserves better than C grade — Mohit Bohra (@mohitbohra07) April 15, 2021yuzi in grade c?????????????? — Aayush (@Ayushadhikari15) April 15, 2021Shreyas Iyer Remains In C Category: View this post on Instagram Currently struggling to recover from a severely injured shoulder from the first ODI between India and England at Pune, Shreyas Iyer had established his footing as a legitimate middle order batsman in Team India, in limited overs cricket. His growth as a batsman and as a leader was also seen by the fans, especially during the 2020 season of the Indian Premier Leaguue. But despite rising through the ranks in the India batting order, Iyer’s pay-grade remains the same as last year- Rs. 1 Crore. #shreyasiyer deserves better🤦♀️🤦♀️ — Rahull Vaidyaa (@RahullVaidyaa) April 15, 2021@ShreyasIyer15 deserves better! — Krunal Thakkar (@KrunallThakkar) April 15, 2021Shreyas in c!!..he definitely deserves better!!🤦♀️#shreyasiyer — Rahull Vaidyaa (@RahullVaidyaa) April 15, 2021Move Iyer, hanuma, siraj to grade B atleast — BLACK PANTHER (@itzz__Black) April 15, 2021T Natarajan Goes Uncapped: View this post on Instagram Despite making a phenomenal debut across all formats of international debut during India’s tour of Australia, T Natarajan was snubbed from a guaranteed contract with the national team. This move by the BCCI specially stings the fans when Axar Patel, who played in just one Test series (albeit a lot more effective than Natarajan), already got a C category contract. #axarpatel played 1 test series & got contract whereas #natarajan who played in #Australia series & #England series had no contract. 🤷♂️🤷♂️#DeepakChahar not played single game in last year & still holds contract. Partiality at peaks. Nattu deserves the contract.. — NelloreReviews (@nellore_reviews) April 15, 2021Natarajan......? This is not correct way of cricket..... Revised the structure..... @BCCI — Guna1402 (@Guna14021) April 16, 2021Where is Natarajan....????

With the evolution of technology, new sources of entertainment have taken over the media industry and one of the latest trends in the market comes from the practice of face-swapping. A video editing method through which the faces and expressions of one person can be copy-pasted on the body of another person. Recently, a tweet shared by user @Thalavenger shows a face swap between the captain of the Indian cricket team Virat Kohli with actor Shahid Kapoor who played the role of Kabir Singh in the 2019 box-office hit. Now who did this https://t.co/Bn6DdTcSgL pic.twitter.com/XavybGRNrT — Thalavenger (@Thalavenger) April 13, 2021 With the song track “Bekhayali” playing in the background, the video shows a ‘Refaced’ version of Kohli and Kabir Singh snorting rows of cocaine, binging drinking, chain-smoking, and lying on the floor unconscious. Thankfully, the video finally cuts to the real Virat Kohli celebrating one of his 70 international cricket centuries while playing against South Africa. Back in the day, the practice of cutting and pasting one person’s face over another’s body used to be possible only on still images but with the innovation of apps such as DeepFake and Reface, it has become possible to do so in videos as well. Kohli fans were completely shocked to watch the video and here’s how some of them reacted: Don't know about him but I will definitely be depressed if the first six things turn out to be true https://t.co/htjiOnPhEU — Rachel (@FernsRach_18) April 13, 2021Kohli bhai laut aao https://t.co/WddjOKzwmh — Riot-su (@kankeneeche) April 13, 2021New Arjun Reddy in the town https://t.co/kwQfgLZNbk — King 🤴🇮🇹 (@Pran33Th__18) April 13, 2021Abeyyy — Ananya (@Finished_kolly) April 13, 2021The real Virat Kohli is in the middle of his 14th season of the Indian Premier League as the captain of the Royal Challengers Bangalore squad, playing with the hopes of finally being able to win his first IPL trophy. So far this season, RCB has once again begun their IPL campaign with a promising win against the reigning champions in the Mumbai Indians, whom they defeated on the very last ball to win the match by 2 wickets at Chennai’s Chepauk Stadium. The Kohli-led side is set to take on David Warner (another regular user of the Reface app) and his SunRisers Hyderabad team at the same venue. Winning the match will send RCB at the top of the Points Table as the first team with two wins this season. Virat Kohli’s recent form and the decision to bat as the opener have made him one of the top contenders to win the orange cap this season. View the full article

As fans of the CW show Batwoman would know, Ruby Rose stepped down from her role as Kate Kane after a stunt-related injury. To allow her to exit the show, the show had shown that Kate Kane had gone missing after a plane crash and Javicia Leslie was cast as Ryan Wilder, who takes on the mantle of being the Batwoman in season 2. © CW Now, just when things were settled and the show had moved on, it seems Kate Kane will be returning, “altered” after the plane crash with Wallis Day cast for the role. Super excited to finally announce I’m joining the cast of Batwoman. I’m sure you can imagine how much this means to me and how incredible it’s been working on the show so far. Everyone’s made me feel so welcome and it’s amazing being back home with my DC family 🦇♥️ https://t.co/UJpkF1uAAC — Wallis Day (@wallisday) March 22, 2021 But with all the recasts, it’s safe to say people were just a tad bit confused. huh??? im so confused i thought they like killed her off why is she back — timmy HALEY DAY (@pietrosdjarin) March 22, 2021I’m so confused on what’s happening with this show. pic.twitter.com/2qfW0PlHDS — .nator. (@72Tominator) March 22, 2021Wait, so they went all the trouble to make a new character only to recast Kate Kane anyway?! — Jak (@Jak70760853) March 22, 2021However, showrunner Caroline Dries confirmed that Ryan Wilder will still remain Batwoman and that she didn’t want to conform to the “bury your gays” trope, where creators opt to kill off LGBTQ+ characters instead of giving them proper representation. “As a lesbian who's been working as a writer for the past 15 years, I’m well aware of the 'Bury Your Gays' trope and I have no interest in participating in it," Dries had said in June 2020. "Like you, I love Kate Kane — she's the reason I wanted to do the show. We'll never erase her. In fact, her disappearance will be one of the mysteries of season two. I don't want to give away any of our surprises, but to all our devoted fans, please know that LGBTQ+ justice is at the very core of what Batwoman is and we have no intention of abandoning that.” A note from me on behalf of The Bat Team... pic.twitter.com/V6iXjaCrA5 — Caroline Dries (@carolinedries) June 10, 2020 And what a surprise it was! Despite initial confusion, fans of the show are rejoicing at the return of the iconic character and the choice of cast.

Kim Kardashian hilariously recalls being confused for Kendall Jenner's mom
ADMIN posted a blog entry in Geo News Blog
Kim Kardashian says that many thought that she was Kendall Jenner's mother because of their age gap -
Mohammed Siraj might just be a couple of series old in international Tests but the kind of impact he has managed to leave on the field every time he has gotten the opportunity to play red-ball cricket for India has been impressive. In the fourth and final match of the India-England series, the first day action at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi stadium led to some early progress made by the hosting side as England found themselves struggling to score runs without losing wickets, at least in the first session. View this post on Instagram Following Axar Patel scalping two important wickets of England openers Dom Sibley and Zak Crawley in incredible fashion, it was Siraj’s turn to join the action and he did so in the best way possible - by removing the opposing skipper and England’s best batsman off the field. On the very first delivery of the 13th over of the day, Siraj stunned Joe Root with a direct delivery right in front of the stumps while adding some extra pace to it. Unable to read the bowler on time, Root ended up exposing his front leg to the delivery and got dismissed on an LBW appeal. View this post on Instagram The dismissal was so clear and obvious that when the English skipper walked up to his batting partner Jonny Bairstow to ask whether he should go for a review, his teammate simply shook his head in disapproval and Root ended up walking back to the pavilion without any contest. And while getting Joe Root out was incredible, fans of the Indian cricket team made a rather uncanny observation about what happened after Siraj had taken the wicket. As the Men in Blue huddled around the pacer in celebration, a peculiar face, that of Mayank Agarwal could be seen right next to Siraj, while engaging in a routine ritual every time the latter picked a wicket, regardless of where or against whom the match was being played. The wayyy Mayank alwayys der dedicating Siraj 's Wicket to his Dad >>>>#indvengpic.twitter.com/LwkZzXKdjI — Gajal (@KLaassyGajal) March 4, 2021 Replacing one of the fielders, Agarwal was at the right place at the right time to congratulate Siraj on his first wicket of the fourth Test and did so by running up to him as the two teammates raised their arms in the air as a gesture of respect towards the bowler’s father who had died mere weeks before his international Test debut.
