'By The Order Of...': Shubman Gill's Hilarious Post From Birmingham Goes Viral
Last Updated: Shubman Gill's Instagram post with Arshdeep Singh and Mohammed Siraj has gone viral ahead of the second Test against England at Edgbaston. India Test skipper Shubman Gill's latest Instagram post has gone viral on social media, where he is seen posing with Arshdeep Singh and Mohammed Siraj in a funny way, ahead of the second Test against England at Edgbaston in Birmingham, where India come 0-1 down in the five-match series. India lost the opening Test despite five of their batters scoring hundreds, as England chased down 371 in the fourth innings to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series. Gill himself scored a century and all fans must have expected a brilliant start to his Test captaincy career, but that was not to be. But the star Indian batter was in a goofy mood as the team went around Birmingham. 'By the order of the cheeky blinders 😎," Gill captioned the post on his Instagram handle. Notably, the Peaky Blinders were a street gang based in Birmingham, which operated from the 1880s until the 1920s. The group consisted of young criminals from lower to working-class backgrounds. The story of this gang became popular across the world when a TV series was made on it in 2013, and even 12 years later, it remains one of the most popular series on Netflix. A movie is also slated to release on the gang. Meanwhile, Gill scored 147 in India's first innings total of 471 and just eight runs in the second innings. Gill admitted that the lower-order collapse in both innings did cost them during the five-wicket loss to England. India collapsed from 430/3 in the first innings to 471, losing seven wickets for 41 runs and in the second, they crumbled to 364 all-out from 333/4, losing six wickets for 31 runs. Playing his first Test as captain, Gill conjured up a sublime unbeaten 127 that was packed with glorious drives. India ended Day 1 at a solid 359/3, making the English attack look pedestrian. Notably, this will be the first time that Gill will be playing at Edgbaston and the pressure is expected to be a lot, especially while leading as well as handling the defeat of the first Test.

‘Captain Harmanpreet Singh wanted me to continue but I had made up my mind': Lalit Upadhyay on retirement
Many in the Indian team, including captain Harmanpreet Singh, wanted Lalit Upadhyay to not retire from international hockey but the 32-year-old midfielder said that he had already made up his mind before making the announcement. Lalit made the announcement in an Instagram post, thus bringing the curtains down on a storied career in which he won medals at consecutive Olympics, an Asian Games gold and bronze and a Commonwealth Games silver among a host of other medals and trophies. 'I am almost 32 years old and I felt that now is the time to bid adieu,' Lalit is quoted as saying by PTI. 'I wanted to retire while being at the peak and despite the ligament injury, my fitness and form have been great.' Lalit retires with 67 goals in 183 matches for India. His decision came at the end of a horrific run for the team in the FIH Pro League in which they lost seven matches on the bounce. Lalit said that this had nothing to do with his decision. 'I have taken this decision myself. I did not want to drag myself. Many people, including (captain) Harmanpreet Singh, wanted me to keep playing but I had made up my mind,' he said. A post shared by Lalit Upadhyay (@14__lalit) // 'The team was very cooperative but the time (to retire) had come. Even before going to Europe for the Pro League, I was thinking about quitting. I will continue playing domestic hockey and leagues.' Lalit said he took up hockey to support his family as the small cloth shop was not doing well. 'My family condition was very bad when I took up hockey. My father's small cloth shop was closed and my mother had to stitch clothes. I took up the sport in search of a better future… a job. When my elder brother and I used to stay in day-boarding, we used to get Rs. 250-300 with which we bought a sewing machine for our mother,' he said. Asked about the best moment of his career, he recalls the quarterfinal against Great Britain at the Paris Olympics when India won in the shootout. He feels that despite a string of losses, India's performance in the Europe leg of the Pro League was not bad and the matches were close. 'Many new things were tried and we learnt a lot. We managed to defeat a top team like Belgium.' Lalit also expressed his desire to serve Indian hockey as a coach. 'If Hockey India wants, I am ready for it. I want to help the future generation of hockey players.' he said.
