English players likely to miss remaining IPL 2021 season
The England and Wales Cricket Board’s (ECB) director of men’s cricket Ashley Giles has confirmed that England players will not be released from their international commitments to participate in the IPL 2020’s second half, whenever the tournament resumes.
The IPL 2021 had to be postponed on May 4 after multiple cases of COVID-19 in teams’ bio-bubbles. More than four players, a couple of coaches, and many ground staff and support staff tested positive for the COVID-19 virus.
Now the BCCI has reportedly found a window to conduct the remaining 31 matches of the IPL 2021 tournament, preferably in UAE from late September to mid-October. However, they are dependent on the cricket boards of foreign countries to release players in that period.
The IPL is likely to restart on about September 18 and run until around October 12. At the same time, England will be touring Bangladesh and Pakistan.

What monkey fled with a bag containing evidence in it: Read full story
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.
