Former England cricketer Michael Vaughan wants to omit these three players

England Test team was riding on the back of the skipper Joe Root and bowler James Anderson who was doing most of the heavy lifting for the team.

In fact, when it came to batting, the England openers – Rory Burns and Dominic Sibley – hardly contributed to the scoreboard. The top three English batters have been under fire since the start of this year especially after they already dropped Zak Crawley from the XI after his string of low scores.

Haseeb Hameed was brought back into the squad after almost five years, but even he looked tentative as he made a golden duck in the first innings and a patient 45-ball 9 in the second.

With so much happening in the England squad, former cricketer Michael Vaughan has stated changes to be made to the team before going into the third Test against India. Vaughan has criticised the opening pair but back Haseeb to be pushed up the order to open.

Despite not mentioning who should be dropped first, Vaughan suggested Dawid Malan should be brought in. The cricket had previously played 15 Tests and made 724 runs at an average of 27.

“I want a bit more substance and experience. I want to see Dawid Malan at three. England cannot keep going with the Rory Burns-Dom Sibley opening partnership after 10 ducks this year. It is the definition of insanity. It just does not work,” Vaughan wrote in his column for The Telegraph.

Vaughan further added that this will be the last three test matches for England before Ashes in December.

“In total, 37 percent of their partnerships this year have not gone past the second over. That is staggering. You can’t carry on with that and England knows it. I would give Hameed his rightful spot to open and throw in Malan. England now needs a little bit of substance. They have three games against India then straight into an Ashes series,” Vaughan wrote.

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.
