Tension between the Indian and English cricketers during the second Test at Lord`s that ended this week wasn`t limited to the pitch. It extended to beyond the boundary.

It has emerged in the English media that a couple of Indian players from the bench, who were returning from the field to their dressing room, refused to give way to pace bowler Ollie Robinson who was walking out to bat after England had been reduced to 90/7 on the fifth and final day on Monday.

“As [Ollie] Robinson descends the pavilion steps, a couple of India players in tracksuits are coming back in the opposite direction, having just been out on the field delivering drinks. Robinson stops and waits for them to step aside,” a report in the Guardian newspaper stated.

“They do not step aside. Robinson waits. They wait. Eventually, after a fashion, they sort of awkwardly squeeze past each other. The whole encounter lasts barely a couple of seconds and yet as a motif for this bruising, absorbing final day it is hard to beat,” added the report which analysed England`s defeat.

After the first Test at Trent Bridge earlier this month was completed smoothly and without any incident, tension gripped the second Test from the fag end of the third day when Indian pace bowler Jasprit Bumrah  attacked England pace bowler James Anderson with short deliveries.

That set the players from the two teams at loggerheads against each other. The differences reached the pinnacle with Indian skipper Virat Kohli and Anderson getting involved in a verbal spat.

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.
