The next month’s T20 World Cup will be Virat Kohli’s last assignment as a skipper in the shortest format. Kohli dropped the bombshell a couple of days back but it was a long time coming. pic.twitter.com/Ds7okjhj9J — Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) September 16, 2021 More than the decision the whole world was surprised by the timing of his decision. But those in BCCI’s inner circles knew that it was almost inevitable as the discussions regarding the split-captaincy were going on for the last six months. © Reuters Announcing his decision via a social media post, Kohli argued that he decided to step down in order to manage his workload but not many believed him. Experts like Sunil Gavaskar felt that Kohli made the decision because he knew that the BCCI would sack him if India failed to bring home the T20 World Cup. The BCCI and the selectors are yet to announce their decision but there seems to be a common consensus that Rohit Sharma is the front-runner to replace Kohli. Rohit has been part of India’s leadership group for a long time and commands a respect within the dressing room that only a few players do. © Reuters And when you’re the most successful captain in the history of the world’s toughest T20 league, it makes your case even stronger. Rohit has guided Mumbai Indians to five titles in the last eight years and that speaks volumes of his credibility as a captain. While there is still some time left for him to take charge formally, Rohit has already started calling the shots. If you closely analyse the players picked in the T20 World Cup squad, you would realise it had Rohit’s stamp all over it. Here are 3 decisions that indicate Rohit’s choices were preferred to Kohli’s during the T20 World Cup squad selection meeting: 1. Ashwin’s Surprising Comeback © Reuters Ravichandran Ashwin hasn’t featured in India’s white-ball squad for the last four years, so, obviously, everyone was surprised to see him back in the side, that too for a big tournament like the T20 World Cup. As per a report published in TOI, Ashwin wasn’t Kohli’s first-choice off-spinner, he was keener on having Washington Sundar in the team instead. But Rohit advocated for the veteran off-spinner’s inclusion saying his experience and variations would prove to be a big asset for Team India on the slow and turning tracks in the UAE. Rohit’s argument convinced the selectors as well as Kohli and paved the way for Ashwin’s comeback to the limited-overs set-up. 2. Mumbai Indians' Dominance © Twitter/IPL Out of 15 players who are part of the T20 World Cup squad, six players play franchise cricket for Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League. While Rohit, Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav were a no-brainer, it was the selection of youngsters like Ishan Kishan and Rahul Chahar that rolled eyeballs and indicated how little saying Kohli had in the team selection. 3. Rahul Chahar Preferred To Yuzvendra Chahal © Twitter/IPL Yuzvendra Chahal has been playing under Virat Kohli, for both franchise and country, for a long time and nobody expected him to be left out from the squad. Chahal has been Kohli’s go-to-man at RCB, whenever he needed a wicket he would throw the ball towards the leg-spinner and more often than not, he would deliver. The fact that selectors picked relatively inexperienced Rahul Chahar, who plays under Rohit for Mumbai Indians wasn’t just a coincidence. It highlights his rising status within the dressing room. Let’s make one thing clear, Chahar has performed well in whatever opportunities he has got but Chahal has been India’s best T20 spinner for so many years and it’s hard to believe Kohli was happy with his exclusion.

Most of us have been staying at home for over six months now. In the Winter season, it's easy to fall into a routine of not showering every day or not taking care of your skin at all. Unfortunately, this self-inflicted grooming neglect will start to show very soon in the form of these factors: 1. Dry, Scaly Hands © iStock There is no bigger turnoff than shaking hands with someone who has extremely dry and scaly hands. Hands get rough and cracked easily in the Winter season. In fact, amid the pandemic, the constant use of soap and sanitiser can make them dry even more quickly. This is why it's important to buy a hand cream with your monthly sanitiser purchase. Use the hand cream daily to make sure your hands are adequately moisturised. __ECOMPRODUCT__781__ 2. Dark Eye CirclesEye bags usually indicate that you slept badly the night before or the signs of ageing have already started hitting you. A simple solution is a concealer that suits your skin tone. A BB cream would do the job as well. In the long term, you're looking at investing in a good under eye serum. __ECOMPRODUCT__925__ 3. Dry & Frizzy HairIf you have frizzy and dry hair, it means that even if you're using a shampoo and conditioner either they're not right for you or you're not using them in the designated proportions. Find a pair that matches your hair type and perhaps start a hair care routine that involves oiling your hair as well. __ECOMPRODUCT__926__ 4. Dandruff View the full article

8 Signs Which Indicate That A Man Is In Dire Need Of Grooming
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Grooming is as important as having a sense of style. Or in fact, even more than that. You need to look presentable not just to impress that girl/boy you have a crush on, but also to impress the big clients in your next official meeting! Neglecting grooming is a big no-no, as it leaves people wondering why you couldn't have possibly taken care of yourself. So, here are signs to watch out for if you're neglecting grooming. If you relate with any of these, it's time to upgrade your grooming routine: © Epiphanydermatology 1. If you're getting razor burns from shaving, you might want to get a couple of things right. Firstly, make sure your razor is not infested with bacteria. Don't use your blade more than 3-4 times or more than three months at a stretch (whichever comes first). It's also important to prep your skin with hot water and use a moisturizer on your face. You need to follow up your shave with a good alcohol-free aftershave that minimizes irritation and the growth of ingrown hair. © Manyofmay 2. If your eyebrows are leaning towards becoming a unibrow, it's a huge problem. You might think that taking care of your brows is not manly enough but trust me, having a single brow or haphazard brows is not attractive. Taking care of your brows only makes you more presentable and handsome. It's time you start. © neckbeard.com 3. Having a neckbeard: You can't mistake your beard with extra growth on your neck. You need to draw a line that marks the ending of your beard. Try to keep the crop an inch above your Adam's apple for a smooth finish. © lybrate 4. Dry, cracked lips are a huge turn-off. Not only does it make your lips un-kissable but will also make you feel extremely uncomfortable throughout the day if you don't use a moisturizing agent. © baldingbeards 5. You need to change your oral hygiene routine if you have evil-smelling breath. The worst case scenario is when you possibly don't even know of its existence. It's time to ask a trusted person if your mouth reeks foul and if it does, take care of it with some good old mouthwash. Pro tip: Mint chewing gums help in emergency situations when you can't access a mouthwash or a brush. © baldingbeards 6. If wearing black means snowfall on your shoulders, it's time to keep watch on the kind of shampoo you're using. Switch to an anti-dandruff shampoo that'll help reduce the dandruff, so you don't have to constantly brush your shoulders to avoid visible residue. Oiling your hair on the regular is another way to tackle dandruff. © nextluxury 7. If partying or working late leaves you with dark, puffy eyes that take weeks to go, it's time to take care of them. You want to look fresh for a date or a meeting and not resemble a sleepy racoon. Try under-eye creams that can be really effective in reducing those dark circles. © fabhow 8. No-one wants to hold hands that are scaly, patchy. Since winters tend to make hands dry and rough, it's important to use a hand cream, so that you can have soft hands the next time your SO wants to hold hands with you. -
It is quite possible that you might have joined your current job with full enthusiasm but after a few months, the very same job turned into a weight around your ankle that is only dragging you down? Many people are often met with the urge of wanting to take a different direction in their career and it is only natural to do so. There could be an array of reasons for wanting to make that change, and one should be brave enough to make that decision when the time comes. Here are a few signs which indicate that you are stuck in the wrong career and that it's time you start considering more options. 1. You Are Not Giving Your Best. If you go to your workplace everyday just for the sake of doing what you are supposed to do, then it is a primary sign that you are not enjoying your work. Also, if you have become the kind of person who is always waiting for the weekend and curse Mondays with extra venom, then you are still in the same list of people who are least interested in what they do for a living. 2. You Are Constantly Complaining About Your Job © Thinkstock/Getty Images If recently you have started complaining about the kind of work done in your office, and have constant issues with your colleagues and manager then this could be the sign that you are not at the place where you should be. 3. You Feel Underpaid And Overworked If you feel like you are taking more and more responsibilities for the organization and still not being appreciated and have not received a well-deserved raise, it could be a reason you should think about quitting your job. 4. You Feel Like You Are Not Growing In Your Career If you don't feel challenged by the responsibilities you are given and feel like you are stuck doing mundane work, then this could be the sign that it's time you consider other options as well. 5. You Are Staying Just For The Sake Of Security Many of us have financial responsibilities to take care of and if that is the only thing which is making you stay, then it is definitely time for you to look for more career options. If you continue working in such a situation, you will eventually get drained in some time as money is not the best metric to base your happiness on. 6. You Feel A Pull Towards Something Else © Thinkstock/Getty Images You might be working in as a developer in an IT firm but your heart may aspire to be an event organizer. If that is the call you hear, then you should take the step but remember to save a certain amount of bank balance in your savings account, so that you could survive in the new profession at least for a few months. 7. You Don't Feel That Great Sense Of Purpose At Your Job Many people face this feeling, however, not at the beginning of their career when they are uber excited, but when they gained some experience. Job satisfaction that holds more value than you know, so if you feel that you are heading nowhere in your present job, then take the plunge and make a change.

5 Situations That Indicate It Could Be The Right Time To Quit Your Job
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
It is appraisal season, which could possibly result in significant influx and outflow of employees from a company. If you find yourself in some of the situations mentioned below, then it might be time for you to move on to new avenues in your career. 1. Toxic Relationships With Co-Workers And Managers © Thinkstock/Getty Images You must have come across the phrase 'employees do not leave companies -- they leave their managers and co-workers.' Office politics and bootlicking could be some of the reasons creating the toxic environment to work in. An unresolved quarrel with a co-worker or any case of injustice being dealt out while resolving the issue could be another reason when you could consider quitting. Respect for each other's work plays an important role where you work. 2. Low Pay © Thinkstock/Getty Images Everyone wants to get paid well and if you feel you are being underpaid or undervalued despite the good work you doing, then you need to think of other options. 3. Lack Of Job Security If employees are getting fired for no good reason at the place you are working then this creates a negative vibe within the team and thus can lead to trust issues in the ways the company functions. Who doesn't want a stable job and job security? 4. Lack Of Career Advancement Opportunities If you are getting bored of the same responsibilities and routine every day and see no new opportunity to learn further, it could mean you are on a downward slope at your workplace. 5. Time for a career change © Thinkstock/Getty Images If you have been looking to change your field for a while or even planning to go for further studies or start your own business, then you should focus completely on that and quit your job. However, you should be financially prepared for this jump and see that you have enough money in your account to at least continue your pursuit for a few months. -
?Trash islands? off Central America indicate ocean pollution problem
ADMIN posted a blog entry in Geo News Blog
Floating masses of garbage off some of the Caribbean?s pristine beaches offer grim evidence of a vast and growing problem of plastic waste heedlessly dumped in the ocean. Photo: AFP file OMOA: Floating masses of garbage off some of the Caribbean?s pristine beaches offer grim evidence of a vast and growing problem of plastic waste heedlessly dumped in the ocean, local residents, activists and experts say. These ?trash islands? have been captured in images by photographer Caroline Power, who lives on Honduran island of Roatan. The problem shows that trash ?continues to enter our oceans that leads to the formation of these trash patches,? she told AFP by email. Some of the detritus clumped together in the waves that she documented was being deposited on beaches around Omoa, a seaside town in northern Honduras. It included hospital waste and plastic containers of all types. Honduras blames Guatemala ?It?s an environmental disaster,? Omoa?s deputy mayor, Leonardo Serrano, told AFP. Serrano blamed the garbage on neighboring Guatemala, claiming that communities dumped their refuse into a river and that it had gathered at sea to form floating islands. Power, though, disputed that. ?We also do not know where the garbage comes from,? she said. ?One of the main sources are rivers on the mainland of Honduras and Guatemala,? she said. ?But the rest could come from anywhere. It could come on currents from anywhere in Central America or the Caribbean. ?Some of micro plastics have probably floating around for years.? During the May to December rainy season in Honduras, the floating garbage dumped on Omoa?s promontories and beaches damages the town?s appeal, said municipal tourism chief Amilcar Fajardo. On a walk, he showed plastic bottles, medicine containers and empty insecticide cans with Guatemalan labels to prove his point. Marine biologist Nancy Calix said that much of the garbage sinks to the seabed, damaging underwater fauna. ?We have found fish, even turtles up to a meter wide, dead after ingesting these plastics,? she said. The plastics waste problem came to light three years ago but has been getting worse since, Calix said. Ineffective clean-ups Omoa?s town hall pays for beach clean-ups, but the trash washes up faster than the pick-up crews can remove it. ?On Friday, we filled 20 dump trucks of 13 cubic meters (460 cubic feet) each, and it made almost no difference,? Omoa Mayor Ricardo Alvarado said. ?We are even finding bags holding blood? that came from Guatemalan hospitals, he said. Alvarado said that sometimes parts of beach are dug up and the garbage is buried. Mostly, however, the waste is taken to a municipal garbage dump at high cost to local taxpayers. Guatemalan Environment Minister Sydney Samuels earlier this week promised to build a $1.6-million trash-handling plant on the Motagua River that runs along the Guatemalan side of the border to handle some of the trash. Earlier this month Guatemalan Foreign Minister Sandra Jovel met with Honduran officials to discuss the pollution problem. According to the UN Environment Programme, 6.4 million tons of trash end up in the sea each year, with most of it ? 70 percent ? falling into the depths. Some 15 percent stays circulating on ocean currents, while the rest washes up on beaches.
