Kolkata Knight Riders’ pacer Pat Cummins is currently in quarantine in Chennai after reaching India on April 2 from Sydney. He has loads of time to do other stuff before he finally gets down to training with the squad ahead of this year’s Indian Premier League, which is starting on April 9 in Chennai.

Cummins, who was KKR’s most expensive buy ever in the IPL 2020 auction at INR 15.5 crore, answered some questions on social media which the fans asked. The cricketer recalled his first stint with KKR when he won the IPL under the captaincy of Gautam Gambhir in 2014. The 27-year-old also praised Gambhir’s aggressive captaincy style.

“Favourite moment was my first IPL in 2014 with Kolkata winning the title,” Cummins said during an Instagram live from his hotel room. He also mentioned that seeing thousands of fan cheering up on the streets was a special moment.

“Enjoyed playing under GG (Gautam Gambhir). He was always really aggressive as a captain which I loved,” Cummins added.

The Aussie pacer also said that he enjoys watching Jasprit Bumrah bowl and mentioned Kamlesh Nagarkoti’s name from the KKR side when a fan asked which players he likes to see bowl.

Cummins had a decent IPL last season in the United Arab Emirates but didn’t live up to the price tag, many would say. He took 12 wickets and scored 146 runs from 14 matches for Kolkata as the two-time champions finished fifth and missed out on a playoff spot because of net run rate.

KKR will be banking on their prized asset to do well for them this year along with other senior members of the squad like Andre Russell, Dinesh Karthik, Sunil Narine and captain Eoin Morgan.

The key to making the last four will be consistency and stability, something the side lacked last year with loads of chopping and changing, thus, making life difficult for themselves.

Cummins along with KKR will be seen in action on April 11 when they take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in Chennai in their first game of the IPL 2021 season.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
