India Set To Replace Rahul With Gill In Third Test vs Australia: Report

India batter KL Rahul's prolonged slump in form is likely to cost him his place for the third test against Australia with demands growing for Shubman Gill's inclusion for the match in Indore. India have retained the Border-Gavaskar Trophy with a 2-0 lead in the four-test series but Rahul's form has been a major concern for Rohit Sharma's team. With a highest score of 23 in his last 10 test innings, Rahul's place has become untenable as India chase a third successive victory that would seal their place in the final of the World Test Championship in June.

"I have tremendous admiration for the class of Rahul, in fact I call him Rolls Royce Rahul," former India captain Krishnamachari Srikkanth told the Times of India newspaper. "But it is just not happening for him at the moment. If I was the chairman of selectors, I would have gone up to him and told him to take a break..."

Former test bowler Venkatesh Prasad took to Twitter to criticise the "rigidity of the management to persist with a player who just hasn't looked the part".

Rahul has retained his place for the last two tests against Australia but is no more the team's vice-captain which many be perceived as a sign of his imminent exclusion. "Of late there has been a lot of talk about his batting, but for us as team management, we always look at the potential of any individual, not just KL," skipper Rohit said in Delhi. "If the guy has potential, guys will get that extended run. It's not just about KL, but anyone."

Gill's potential is even harder to overlook though. The 23-year-old already has a century in all three formats and his last seven international knocks include four hundreds.

The elegant right-handed batsman smashed 208 in a one-day international against New Zealand in January and his unbeaten 126 against the same opposition last month is the highest T20 score by an Indian batsman.

"With all due respect to Rahul, it is time to play Shubman," former opener Srikkanth said. "You can't keep a player waiting when he is in the form of his life."

"Khala Ka Ghar Nahi...": Akhtar On India Having It Easy In Asia Cup Final

Former Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar has warned Team India ahead of the Asia Cup final against Sri Lanka. The Rohit Sharma -led side received a timely wake up call following its loss to Bangladesh in the final Super 4 fixture on Friday. While India had rested several key players for the game, including star batter Virat Kohli , Akhtar suggested that it was a embarrassing defeat. Sri Lanka defeated tournament favourties Pakistan to reach the final, and Akhtar feels that winning the final won't be a cakewalk for India. "We were not expecting that India would lose to a team like Bangladesh but they did. It was an embarrassing defeat. Pakistan lost to Sri Lanka. They are out of the Asia Cup, which is an even bigger embarrassment. India are still in the final. All is not lost for them. It was a great wakeup call for them to come back harder and make sure they secure victory in the finals but that will only happen if they play really well. Ye khala ji ka ghar nahi hai jaha pe India...

Why Trump's Claims About Americans Splitting The Atom Angers New Zealanders

Imagine a newly-elected president of a country claiming the legacy of someone as foundational as Thomas Edison. That's the kind of appropriation New Zealanders are witnessing. The recent inaugural address of President Donald Trump has sparked a heated debate over the origins of a groundbreaking scientific achievement: splitting the atom. Trump's claim that American experts were responsible for this feat has been met with swift correction from New Zealanders, who proudly assert that their native son, Sir Ernest Rutherford, was the true pioneer behind this discovery. Rutherford's achievement in 1917 at Victoria University of Manchester in England marked a pivotal moment in the history of nuclear physics. His work not only earned him a Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1908 but also led to the discovery of radioactive half-life and the understanding that radioactivity involves the transmutation of one chemical element to another. Nick Smith, the mayor of Nelson, near Rutherford...

US Going To Take Care Of Chinese Balloon, Says Joe Biden

President Joe Biden said on Saturday that the United States is "going to take care of" a suspected Chinese spy balloon that has been tracked flying across the United States. Biden made his remark in response to a question about whether the United States would shoot down the high-altitude surveillance balloon, which has been flying across the country in what Washington calls a "clear violation" of US sovereignty. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken postponed a visit to China that had been expected to start on Friday because of the balloon. The president did not elaborate on what was planned. Military leaders considered shooting down the high-altitude surveillance balloon this week but eventually recommended against this because of the risk of falling debris, officials said. China expressed regret that an "airship" used for civilian meteorological and other scientific purposes had strayed into U.S. airspace. The Pentagon said on Friday that another Chi...
