New Delhi, April 7 (Ians) Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting feels India should back Suryakumar Yadav ahead of the Odi World Cup to be held at home in October-November, saying the right-handed batter is a kind of a player who can win the side a major event like the World Cup.
In India’s last Odi assignment in March before Ipl 2023 began, Suryakumar was dismissed for a hat-trick of golden ducks as Australia won the three-game series 2-1. He has scored 172 Odi runs at an average of just 12.28 since his last Odi half-century in February 2022.
“Everyone in their career goes through something like that. I mean, I’m not sure I have seen it before where someone’s got three first-ball ducks in a row in an entire series. But look, we’ve all been there. You have your ups and downs as international players.”
“His previous 12 or 18 months have been absolutely outstanding.

"Our stream started early and caught some unacceptable comments. On behalf of @kayosports and the commentary team, we unreservedly apologise," Kayo tweeted.
The conversations started with Warne suggesting that Labuschagne should be handed the ball during India's second innings on Friday after which Symonds mockingly suggested Labuschagne had Add, presumed to be attention deficit disorder.
"Give Marnus a bowl," Warne said. "Do something, that or his Add," Symonds then said which drew laughter from Warne who replied: "Jesus, it's annoying. 'No!

New Delhi, Dec 15 (Ians) Ishant Sharma, who could have become only the second Indian after Sachin Tendulkar to tour Australia five times, will be missed not just because of his experience but because of the kind of wickets he has taken Down Under on those five tours.
The right-arm pace bowler, who was a part of India's fast bowling trio that picked over 68 per cent of Australia's wickets on the last tour, was ruled out of the Indian Premier League (Ipl) in October with an abdominal muscle tear. Now, he has also been ruled out of India's tour of Australia, dealing a blow to the successful Indian attack from 2018-19, that will have to search for the third pace bowling option from among Umesh Yadav, Mohammed Siraj and Navdeep Saini.
None of these can match Ishant in experience, especially what he has done to top Aussie batsmen,...

New Delhi, Dec 10 (Ians) Bigg Boss made a thundering debut on the small screen in 2006. The controversial reality show has made headlines season after season, and has been tagged as one of the highest-rated shows on Indian television. However, it seems the show is devoid of much of its glitter this season.
Bigg Boss in India is based on the show Big Brother, which was first aired on Dutch TV in 1999. Originally sketched as a social experiment, it was designed as The Truman Show in real life. Since that day, Big Brother format has run 448 seasons in 54 franchise countries and territories.
The show also drew inspiration from George Orwell's dystopian novel 1984, where Big Brother was a fictional character, a totalitarian dictator. The novel spoke of a future where each and every person would be under constant watch by surveillance cameras, even inside their own homes. The intention was to generate fear,...
