We don’t know about Tiger But “Dhoni Zinda Hai”.

Last night at Mohali MS Dhoni almost pulled a heist against KXIP. In the opening match of IPL 2018, DJ Bravo came from nowhere and won an unbelievable match for CSK in Wankhade Stadium scoring 68 in mere 30 balls. Chennai needed approx. 50 overs in last 3 overs with just 2 wickets remaining and the magical innings happened. Mumbai Indians weren’t able to change the stats of not winning a match in opening match of the IPL in last 5 years.  
Nobody knew Sunday evening was going to very special as the Thalaiva Captain was going to rock the Mohali people with the vintage Dhoni Knock. KXIP set a target of 198 for CSK in 20 overs which looked a lot in last few overs. CSK lost regular Wickets at intervals while chasing and made themselves reach a position where they required 60 runs in last 3 overs with Bravo and tailenders still to come. Dhoni with Jadeja was playing at 24, run a ball then came Mohit Sharma to bowl. We witnessed vintage innings from the Ranchi Boy devastating Mohit Sharma and Andrew Tye in 18th and 19th over respectively. However, he wasn’t able to take the team over the line but ended up making his highest score 79 off just 44 balls with 6 boundaries and 5 sixes and won the heart of every Dhoni lover. CSK needed 17 of the last over but lost by four runs in the end.
What we saw, that Former Indian Captain can still hit sixes and hasn’t lost the potential to win the match for the team. He has been criticized for lower strike rate and losing his charm with the bat but the most successful captain of India made sure that those people stay quiet for some time with his incredible hitting power. People started talking if he could play in 2019 world cup or not looking at the fact that India has spare wicket-keepers like Dinesh Karthik, Risabh Pant in good form.

Dhoni hasn’t only silenced his critics but also ensured that IPL is going to be a very exciting tournament in coming days. There is no denying in this fact that, he is still one of the fastest runners in the team and is also maintaining a good and fit physique.

The rise of a new fraud in the name of Dream Cruise Job.

The country has seen so many positive changes in all these years, the new government has availed many schemes for the skill development and career opportunities yet lots of young graduates are struggling to get proper jobs. S killed and well-educated job seekers don’t get the right opportunity which has led many cases of people suffering from anxiety and depression sometimes resulting in suicides.   There have been many episodes by known Hindi Journalist Ravish Kumar regarding the struggle of youths getting government jobs which rose protests all over the country. The journalist tried to make a difference but his effort wasn’t good enough to impress the government to avail jobs and right the wrong. The Lack of jobs have opened portals for fraud and scam where a job seeker is promised a permanent job and he/she is asked for money which is never refunded and then they vanish. It hasn’t been many days since the young Sagar Thakur also known as “Shaggy” the alleged mastermin...

क्या ये गंभीर और युवराज के लिये आखिरी आईपीएल है?

अगर गौतम गंभीर और युवराज सिंह आपके पसंदीदा क्रिकेटर है तो इस आईपीएल उनको अच्छे से देख लीजिए क्या पता ये साल उनका आखिरी सीजन हो। राष्ट्रीय टीम में सालों से बाहर चल रहें दोनों ही खिलाड़ी इस आईपीएल में अपने फॉर्म से जुझ रहें है। ऐसा कहा जाता है कि हर खिलाड़ी का एक वक्त होता है और शायद अब इन सीनियर खिलाड़ीयों का वक्त चला गया है। अपने समय में अच्छे अच्छे गेंदबाजों के छक्के छुड़ाने वाले युवी आजकल आईपीएल टीम के लिए बेंच गर्म कर रहें है। दो वर्ल्ड कप फाईनल के हीरो गौतम गंभीर भी अंतिम एकादश में जगह बनाने मे नाकाम रहें है। कोलकाता को दो बार चैंपियन बनाने वाले कप्तान का टूर्नामेंट के बीच में कप्तानी छोड़ते ही कयास लगाए जाने लगे थे कि अब शायद आईपीएल के इतिहास में पहली बार गौतम गंभीर को आखिरी ग्यारह में शामिल नहीं किया जाएगा। गंभीर एक सूलझे हुये खिलाड़ी है और जैसे ही उन्हें ये लगा कि अब उनकी जगह टीम में नहीं बनती है तो वो क्रिकेट को अलविदा कहने में देर नहीं करेंगें। कुछ लोगों का मानना हैं कि बल्लेबाज विरेन्द्र सहवाग, सौरव गांगुली और राहुल द्रविड़ में काफी क्रिकेट बाकि रह गया। समय से पहले ही स...

Democracy allows protest, not violence and death with it.

We have seen many popular protests in India. Some were democratic and some were non-violent and undemocratic. Famous Anna Hazare’s agitation for Lokpal Bill in country’s Capital was non-violent and very cooperative. Jat Agitation in country was violent and the government lost crores. And then there were people who went mad over arresting of Ram Rahim Baba. Here also we lost capitals. Before few days farmers were protesting in Maharashtra which was very silent and non-violent. Protests and agitations makes democracy beautiful but on the name of them if you are involved in killing of people how could you justify it. Great Mahatma Gandhi had many shades, his best one was non-violence. However, some people think that there were instances where he should have gone against it. The country lost millions of Capital with the Bharat Bandh today when people were on road protesting against the decision of supreme court in making changes in SC\ST act. Disagreeing with the decision and marchi...
