Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma can break out of jail if they can shine with bat and guide India to wins in England ODIs

Published by Parlour News

India are touring England for three ODIs next month, and the rubber is particularly very important for two players in the team, both very seasoned and great servants of Indian cricket. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. These ODIs will be India’s first away from home since October last year in Australia, where the team under Shubman Gill lost 2-1. Kohli got two ducks before scoring 74 in a pride-salvaging win. Sharma, on the other hand, yielded scores of 8, 73 and 121 not out. Being one-format players now, veteran stars Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are always under pressure to deliver. (Star Sports India) Pitches in England, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand are in stark contrast to the ones in India. While there has been an attempt in those four countries to make white-ball pitches batsmen-friendly in recent years, they have still not been able to produce pitches like the ones in India.

4 min readMumbaiMay 24, 2026 06:00 PM IST It’s a tragedy that a lot of Hindi cinema’s most prized archival treasures have been lost to time. These not only include film props, costumes, and prints, but also hand-painted posters, which served as the face of the film, the first glimpse of the grand, immersive experience in store. While the hunt for the original release posters of some cult classics are on, veteran film historian and memorabilia archivist SSM Ausaja laments that a lot of them has been permanently lost. “Nobody has the poster of PC Barua’s Devdas (1935),” revealed Ausaja, referring to the first Hindi film adaptation of Sharat Chandra Chattopadhyay’s 1917 seminal Bengali romance novel, starring the director, Jamuna Barua, and Chandrabati Devi as Devdas, Paro, and Chandramukhi, respectively. He also regretted the loss of the original posters of Ardeshir Irani’s 1931 period fantasy film Alam Ara, which is regarded as India’s first talkie, as well as Nitin Bose’s Dhoop Chhaon (1935), which was India’s first film to use playback singing.

In the latest episode of #BeTheSmartInvestor by BSE, in association with The Indian Express, a common theme emerges – many people are aware of scams, but struggle to identify them in real life.  ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW VIDEO A typical red flag is the promise of “guaranteed returns,” especially claims like 100% profit in a short period. The stock market is influenced by multiple factors, and no legitimate investment can assure fixed or guaranteed returns. If something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. The scammers frequently use strategies such as fabricated testimonials, certificate forgery, and pressure tactics such as ‘offer ends today.’ These are psychological factors that force people to take impulsive decisions without proper verification. Another emerging trend is the use of WhatsApp, Telegram, and AI video scams. These are highly convincing.  The interview reveals that many victims initially trusted such offers due to small early gains …
