The Indian women’s hockey team lost to Britain in the semi-finals of the Tokyo Olympics.

Haridwar SSP Krishnaraj S said that investigation is being done on the complaint of Vandana Kataria’s brother. Police have registered an FIR under Section 504 of IPC and Section 3 of SC/ST Act.

The Indian women’s hockey team created history after winning the quarter-finals, but the team lost to Argentina in the semi-final match. After this match on Wednesday, Team India was disappointed, but the performance of the women’s team was appreciated by all. Meanwhile, in Uttarakhand, the police also received a complaint from Vandana Kataria’s brother, in which he was told of abusing his family members after losing in the semi-finals.

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.

Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”

Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
