“You go after one of our guys and all 11 of us will come right back,”: KL Rahul explains banter with England Cricketers

Lord’s Test between India and England turned out to be a fiery affair with players from both the teams involved in heated exchanges which sometimes required the on-field umpires’ interventions. India were particularly aggressive during the fifth and final day’s play on Monday that culminated into a big win for them as they took a 1-0 lead in the five-match series.

Centurion KL Rahul explained the reason behind the approach hinting that England sledging Jasprit Bumrah during his game-changing unbeaten partnership with Mohammed Shami for the ninth wicket fired them up.

Bumraj was peppered with short deliveries with bowler Mark Wood, wicketkeeper Jos Buttler and England captain Joe Root exchanging words with the India tailender.

England seemingly were responding to Bumrah’s that over to James Anderson on Saturday that saw the Indian pacer employing short-ball tactics which the hosts weren’t impressed with.

With Bumrah dealing with a hostile England on the final day, even India captain Virat Kohli from the Lord’s balcony got involved making his displeasure known.

“That’s what you expect with two competitive teams – great skills, and a few words as well. We don’t mind some banter. You go after one of our guys and all 11 of us will come right back,” Rahul said after the contest ended with India registering a 151-run win.

For his sublime 129 in the first innings that set the base for India’s win, Rahul was chosen as the player-of-the-match and he admitted to be regularly checking the famous Lord’s honors board for his name to have found a permanent place.

“I’ve been looking at it every morning to see if they’ve put it on permanently. They haven’t – it’s still a temporary piece of paper,” he said.

Rahul praised India’s batting for being disciplined.

“To put on 360 on the board was really crucial, very happy. Been here for a couple of months now and been working really hard on our skills. Even in the first game at Trent Bridge the batsmen have shown a lot of discipline,” Rahul said.

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.
