West Indies all-rounder Andre Russell had an unlucky day with the bat on Friday against Bangladesh in the T20 World Cup match. The destructive batter was dismissed on a duck without facing any ball. It was the 13th over of the innings when Russell came out to bat after skipper Kieron Pollard retired out himself. On the fourth ball of the over, Roston Chase played its straight towards Taskin Ahmed who managed to get a boot on the ball which then hit onto the stumps as Andre Russell was way short of the crease.

Russell became the ninth batter to get dismissed without facing a ball in the T20 World Cup history.

Earlier, Bangladesh captain Mahmudullah won the toss and elected to bowl first against West Indies in a must-win Group 1 match at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.

After losing the toss, Pollard talked about the underwhelming show from the batters in the tournament so far and said they need to give the bowlers something to defend.

“It is (do or die). That’s the reality of the situation. We don’t have anyone to blame but ourselves, so it’s on ourselves to get out of this situation. We need to give the bowlers something to defend. Two changes. Simmons misses out, Roston Chase makes his international debut. Hayden Walsh is out and Jason Holder comes in.” Pollard confirms that Chris Gayle is going to open the batting,” said Pollard.

However, the Windies batters once again disappointed many with their underwhelming performances against Bangladesh. West Indies managed to score 142/7 in 20 overs with Nicholas Pooran being the only saving grace for them with the bat. The wicketkeeper-batter slammed 40 runs off just 22 balls. Apart from him, Roston Chase scored 39 runs but a strike rate of 84.78 took away the charm of the innings. However, the mega 19-run final over pulled them to a respectable total.

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.
