Butter Fingers Cost Lankan Tigers Semi Final Berth

By

Catches Win Matches!!!

This phrase definitely holds true for the Sri Lankan cricket team after they lost out on their second straight Champions Trophy semi-finals after some poor fielding. 236 was never going to be a power total in this ground. However, they were right in the game after some marvelous bowling from their speedsters, Nuwan Pradeep in particular. Pakistan at one stage were 162-7 with a certain defeat looming over them. However, Sarfraz Ahmed played a Captain's knock of 61 from 79 balls and was well supported by Mohammad Amir who  chipped in with a 28. Their valiant knocks were helped by some very sloppy Sri Lankan fielding who dropped a couple of  catches and also leaked some very crucial runs. Sri lanka's most experienced death bowler Lasith Malinga looked a shadow of  his past and this didn't help matters either. However, Pakistan played a really good game of cricket and didn't let the pressure get to them for which they are known for. Pakistan will now play England in the Semi Finals whereas India will lock horns with Bangladesh

Why is Sehwag calling this man 'INCREDIBLE' ??? You need to know this

By
Indian Cricketer Virender Sehwag is a popular man on Social Media these days. His funny tweets also known as 'SEHWAGISM' are always trending. His humour can be seen in the commentary box as well. Lately, he has been in the news for his 'Baap Kaun Hai' tweets referring to the India-Pakistan rivalry. But, he was on a completely different mood on Sunday. Away from his usual dose of humour, he posted about a man he found incredible. He referred to Padma Shri Jadav 'Molai' Payeng, also popularly known as the 'Forest Man' of India. Since decades, he has been planting trees on a sandbar of the river Brahmaputra turning it into a forest reserve also known as the Molai forest after him. It is located near Kokilamukh of Jorhat, Assam, India and encompasses an area of about 1,360 acres / 550 hectares. Incredible but true, his forest has deers, rabbits, rhinoceros and also TIGERS. TRULY INCREDIBLE!!! Now, go google him and read about this amazing man.
