Krunal Pandya was hailed for withdrawing his run out appeal against KL Rahul in view of the spirit of cricket shown by him and his captain Rohit Sharma. The 30-year-old had removed the bails with KL Rahul yards out of the crease, but it wasn’t that easy. He had collected the ball in a freakish way after Chris Gayle had hit it straight to Rahul at non-striker’s end. It then ricocheted to Krunal who removed the bails in a jiffy. Umpire too moved upstairs as Krunal appealed for the run out, but later withdrew. Mumbai skipper Rohit Sharma too seconded his actions, asking the umpire not to take it further.

IPL 2021: Krunal Pandya Withdraws Run Out Appeal Against KL Rahul, Hailed for 'Spirit of Cricket'

Letting go KL Rahul in such a crucial juncture could have been fatal for Mumbai as they are in a must-win situation against Punjab. Fortunately, Rahul didn’t stay long and departed quickly thereafter. Krunal has been trolled mercilessly so far for his poor performance in the IPL so far, a winless streak on Mumbai’s part hadn’t helped matters either. His poor form with bat and ball has been a cannon fodder to his detractors who are making the most of his bad run on social media.

Earlier Kieron Pollard had become the only cricketer to complete a double of 10,000 runs and 300 wickets in T20 cricket. Pollard, who plays for Mumbai Indians, achieved the feat against Punjab Kings. The West Indian managed to remove KL Rahul and his own compatriot Chris Gayle to achieve this feat in space of few balls.  Pollard was handed the over at a stage when Mumbai were struggling to get quick wickets. They had removed Mandeep Singh, but the big fish: KL Rahul was looking good. Kudos to Pollard, Mumbai triggered a mini collapse in Punjab ranks as they were reduced to 50/4.

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.
