Hina Khan, Rocky Jaiswal slam Shilpa Shinde for taking a dig at her cancer battle amid feud

Actor Hina Khan recently found herself at the centre of a controversy after her public spat with Shilpa Shinde escalated. The row began when Shilpa admitted that the sexual harassment case she had filed against the producers of Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain was false. As the feud escalated, Hina has now hit back at Shilpa for mocking her battle with cancer during their war of words. Hina Khan and Shilpa Shinde have been at loggerheads since their stint in Bigg Boss 11. Hina slams Shilpa Shinde In their latest vlog, Hina and Rocky Jaiswal, joined by Abhinav Shukla and Rubina Dilaik, weighed in on Shilpa Shinde’s false sexual harassment case, which she had filed against the producers of Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain.

Shubman Gill non-committal on who India would pick between Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Yashasvi Jaiswal

Shubman Gill non-committal on who India would pick between Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Yashasvi Jaiswal

3 min readChennaiJun 20, 2026 10:17 PM IST India captain Shubman Gill remained tight lipped about the opening combination the ODI team would take in the lead up to the World Cup beginning England series. On a day where Yashasvi Jaiswal scored his second ODI century to press for a strong case for his inclusion, Rohit Sharma too scored 79 runs at the top. The knocks from the two followed a game after Ishan Kishan — another player who is fighting for the opener’s slot — scored a commanding century at Lucknow. Now the attention turns to the all-important selection committee meet to name the ODI squad for the England tour. With Virat Kohli missing the series against Afghanistan, the team management had the opportunity to experiment in the batting order with all three getting opportunities. And most importantly, all three grabbed it. Between the three, it is Rohit’s spot which is under pressure. Though he scored 79 runs off 69 deliveries, the century again went missing at a time when Ishan and Jaiswal are …

Jaiswal century, Rohit’s 79 power India past Afghanistan

Jaiswal century, Rohit’s 79 power India past Afghanistan

5 min readChennaiUpdated: Jun 20, 2026 08:47 PM IST Three days after Ishan Kishan made a compelling case for his place in the XI, Yashasvi Jaiswal sent a reminder on Saturday night that he too is in the race with a fluent century. But not before Rohit Sharma, whose spot is under scrutiny, showed he is no pushover with a measured 79 off 69. All of it unfolded under the watch of the selectors, who will have a tough call when they meet to pick the squad for the England ODIs. Courtesy a 170-run opening stand between Jaiswal and Rohit, India comfortably chased down Afghanistan’s 218, a total made possible largely by skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi’s maiden ODI century (102). It was an innings that rescued the visitors from a deep hole after Prasidh Krishna reduced them to 36/4 inside ten overs. On a Chepauk surface with considerable bounce, Prasidh hit the hard lengths well and the movement he generated troubled Afghanistan’s top order, with the top three all caught at first slip by Rohit.

Ishan Kishan’s return puts Rohit Sharma and Jaiswal under pressure, not KL Rahul

4 min readJun 18, 2026 06:54 PM IST Ishan Kishan walked in at No 4 against Afghanistan on Wednesday, at a moment when both Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal had failed to own the day. What followed was not just a match-winning innings. It was a selection statement directed at the wrong people. For nearly four years, KL Rahul has been India’s undisputed first-choice wicketkeeper in ODIs. His spot has occasionally been debated in Tests, and he is no longer part of the T20 plans, but in the fifty-over format he has made the middle-order his own. Dropping to No 6 on Gautam Gambhir’s insistence — the role of the finisher, not the most comfortable assignment for a specialist keeper — he has done the job without fuss. Rishabh Pant never came close to displacing him. Sanju Samson was never seriously considered. Dhruv Jurel and Jitesh Sharma, ditto. For all the names thrown at Rahul’s spot, none of them stuck. Now, for the first time, Rahul has genuine competition in Ishan. But the player sweating …

Virat Kohli ruled out of Afghanistan ODI series, replaced by Yashasvi Jaiswal | Cricket News

3 min readUpdated: Jun 6, 2026 05:24 PM IST Virat Kohli was officially ruled out of the upcoming ODI series vs Afghanistan later this month after failing to recover from a hamstring injury and will be replaced by Yashasvi Jaiswal in the squad, chief selector Ajit Agarkar told reporters during a press conference at the BCCI headquarters. “With Virat, at this point, it’s just been less than a week since he injured himself in the finals. We will assess him (but) we don’t know the timelines yet. Yashasvi will be his replacement. But it looks like he (Kohli) might be fit for that England one-day series (in July) but again, it’s not a definitive answer. So, don’t hold me to it. I haven’t had a clear timeline from the physio yet,” Agarkar said. Kohli had suffered the injury while playing the Indian Premier League final at Ahmedabad vs Gujarat Titans. He had slammed 75 and was adjudged the man of the match as he guided Royal Challengers Bengaluru to their second IPL title. Jaiswal, meanwhile, …

‘Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s display has rattled Yashasvi Jaiswal in IPL 2026’: R Ashwin

‘Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s display has rattled Yashasvi Jaiswal in IPL 2026’: R Ashwin

3 min readMay 25, 2026 09:34 AM IST In the Vaibhav Sooryavanshi storm that has hit the IPL 2026 season, an unlikely casualty has been his senior opening partner and Rajasthan Royals vice-captain, Yashasvi Jaiswal. The India opener has endured a quiet season by his standards, with Sooryavanshi dominating their fast-scoring association, ranked the second-best among all IPL opening pairs. The 15-year-old has butchered bowling attacks with 53 sixes and 50 fours, aggregating 583 runs in 14 innings at a jaw-dropping 232.50 strike rate. Jaiswal’s shares dwindle in comparison: 397 runs at 159.43 with only 48 fours and 18 sixes. Former RR all-rounder R Ashwin said that Sooryavanshi’s surging presence has put unusual pressure on Jaiswal to succeed. While both openers failed to set up big scores during RR’s must-win match against the Mumbai Indians on Sunday, Jaiswal has struggled to temper his aggressive starts on most occasions this season. Ashwin expressed surprise with Jaiswal failing to recalibrate his batting flow with Sooryavanshi at the other end. ALSO READ | RR coach on Sooryavanshi: Been …
