David Warner had a forgettable Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021. The man who led the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) to their only title win in 2016, was sacked from his post midway following a few poor knocks. Towards the business end of the season, he was even dropped from the playing XI and was seen sitting in the stands cheering for his depleted side.

‘What Hurt Me the Most is…’: David Warner Speaks About His Sacking as SRH Captain in IPL 2021

The franchise made several changes to the mix, which also included Warner’s sidelining, to enhance the performance but there were no positive results visible. SRH ended 8th on the points table with only three wins and six points.

Warner’s disappointment was clear on his face when he failed to get runs or got dropped from the playing XI. A triumphant journey in the T20 World Cup 2021 and the Player of the Tournament award might have brought some respite to him but he was actually hurt due to the snub. He revealed his part of the story in a conversation with renowned journalist Boria Majumdar.

“If you are going to drop a captain and then not pick him in the team after what he has done, what message does that send to the young kids in the team? What message does that send to the rest of the group? What hurt me the most is that the other guys are now thinking, ‘oh, this could happen to me’,” said Warner.

“At the end of the day, whatever happens, cop it on the chin. If you want to have those conversations, just have them. It’s not hard. Don’t shy away from them. I am not going to bite. I am going to sit here and accept that for what it is because you are not picking me in the team,” he further added.

After leading SRH in the first six games of IPL 2021, Warner was sacked as captain and Kane Williamson was given the responsibility. The seventh game saw the Australia opener getting dropped while he missed the last few games during the UAE leg as well.

“They really felt it and it hurts me because I am passionate about where I play. I will connect in any way I can with the fans because I know how important fans are. Those kids in the playground wanting to be Sachin, Virat, myself, Williamson, Steve Smith – you name those players, they want to be us. We have to connect with them. If they see something like that, it hurts them,” Warner concluded.

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.
