In India, cricket is not a sport, it is a religion.
A game loved by every Indian!
Let’s take a quick glance at what’s happening in Indian cricket:
1. Three Cricketers – Double Century – One Series
Mayank Agarwal, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have become the first three Indian batsmen to score a double century in the same Test series against South Africa. This is the second time ever in the cricket history for this to happen.
The unique record was created after Rohit smashed his first double ton in the longest form of the game, scoring 212. Mayank hit 215 runs while the Indian skipper scored 254.
2. Dhoni – Ziva Boomerang
Mahendra Singh Dhoni is currently enjoying the free time with his family in Ranchi, Jharkhand. The wicketkeeper-batsman’s love for cars and bikes isn’t new, he has added another one to his collection, Nissan Jonga.
On social media, he shared a video along with his daughter Ziva in which the two can be seen washing his new jeep, Nissan Jonga. Dhoni wrote, “A little help always goes a long way specially when u realise it’s a big vehicle”.
3. BCCI Meeting
BCCI President Sourav Ganguly and Secretary Jay Shah met Indian captain Virat Kohli and Vice-captain Rohit Sharma to discuss the roadmap of Indian cricket. The main intent was to talk about the forthcoming T20I & Test series against Bangladesh, starting from 3 November.
4. Virushka Post
Sharing a throwback picture on his Instagram, Virat Kohli is giving out major couple goals in his post with Anushka Sharma. He captioned it with a heart and heart eye emoji.
Though both of them have busy careers, they always find time for each other and always share a glimpse of their chemistry with their fans. We heart them too!
5. Birthday Boy, Umesh Yadav!
The Indian pacer turns 32!
Making his debut for the Indian team in 2010, Umesh Yadav has been an important bone of the bowling department. With reverse swing as his main weapon, he has registered 130 wickets in 43 Tests while in ODIs, the bowler has 106 scalps in 75 outings in ODI’S and taken nine wickets in seven T20Is.
