Indian batsman Cheteshwar Pujara reveals the jersey team India will be wearing at WTC finals
India Test mainstay Cheteshwar Pujara has revealed the jersey the team will be sporting at the inaugural ICC World Test Championship final next month. The Virat Kohli-led India will face New Zealand in Southampton from June 18 for the title.
“The new kit is here! Can’t wait to get on the field!” Pujara captioned his Instagram story in which he is wearing the the newly minted kit made for the historic occasion.
Before that, he had also shared a picture of himself practicing while undergoing quarantine in a team hotel in Mumbai before the departure for UK early next month. “When in quarantine, work from home!,” wrote Pujara alongside a picture of himself.
Pujara, who has scored played 85 Tests and scored 6244 runs so far, will be key to India’s chances of winning the title.
Earlier on Saturday, allrounder Ravindra Jadeja had posted a snap of him wearing a retro Test jumper, a throwback to the 90s.
New Zealand have already landed in UK well ahead of the WTC final as they are to face hosts England in a two-match Test series before. The first match gets underway from June 2 at Lord’s followed by the second at Edgbaston from June 10.
The Kane Williamson-led team will then have a break of three days before the clash against India.
India will be in UK for nearly two and a half-month. After WTC, they will have a break lasting over a month following which Kohli’s men take on England in a five-match series beginning August 4.
The tourists will be looking forward to beating England in an away Test series for the first time since 2007. When the last time they were in England for a Test series, India suffered a 1-4 series defeat.

What monkey fled with a bag containing evidence in it: Read full story
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.
