Kohli Out For Remainder Of Series; Pacer Akash Deep Gets Maiden Call-Up

New Delhi, Feb 10: The BCCI announced on Saturday that star batsman Virat Kohli would miss the remaining Test matches against England for to personal reasons. This puts an end to rumours regarding the star player's availability for the highly anticipated match. The first two Tests had been skipped by Kohli. For personal reasons, Virat Kohli will not be eligible for selection for the rest of the series. The BCCI stated in a release that "The Board fully respects and supports Mr. Kohli's decision." Kohli is presently away due to an urgent family emergency. India won the second Test at Vizag, tying the series at one. The third game is set to begin in Rajkot on February 15.Senior players Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul were chosen by the national selection committee for the team, although their inclusion is pending approval from the BCCI medical staff.

It is thought that Iyer would have been dropped regardless, and selectors' decision was made simpler by his injury.Bengal speedster Akash Deep, who has been acknowledged for his continuous performance in first-class cricket and in the recent India A vs. England Lions Test series, is the only new face in the 17-man roster.

Kashmir bat makers sue Shark Tank India, Tramboo Sports

SRINAGAR, Feb 5: Legal action has been taken by the Cricket Bat Manufacturers Association of Kashmir (CBMAK) against Sony Pictures Networks, the company behind the hit reality series "Shark Tank India," and Tramboo Sports Pvt. Ltd. Claims made on the show during an episode that aired on January 30 of this year are the source of the controversy. The official handout from CBMAK, the acknowledged association representing all cricket bat producers in the Kashmir valley, strongly refuted the claim that Tramboo Sports is the only company producing cricket bats made of Kashmir willow.The Association said that Tramboo Sports' remarks on "Shark Tank India" had deceived the public and seriously harmed the businesses of its members. It voiced extreme concern about these remarks. The Association said that these falsehoods had caused a “severe blow” to the sales of the bats made by its members and had tarnished the standing of the whole locally produced bat industry in Kashmir. CBMAK established the foundation for its allegations against Tramboo Sports by highlighting the exceptional quality of bats made by its members, which are supported and used by a number of famous cricket players.CBMAK expressed shock at the statements made by Tramboo Sports on January 30, 2024, in the "Shark Tank India" Season 3 episode. They claimed that in order to hurt CBMAK members, Tramboo Sports misrepresented themselves as the only producers of Kashmir willow bats. The Association said that by misrepresenting the public and buyers, Tramboo Sports' false claims had negatively impacted the supply and sales of bats made by CBMAK members, damaging the reputation of the local industry.As the sole and authentic representative of Kashmir's cricket bat makers, CBMAK asserted the unwavering backing of its members and positioned itself as the defender of the well-being and success of the region's bat manufacturing sector. The Association has sent a thorough legal notice to Sony Pictures Networks and Tramboo Sports, requesting that they apologise on-air within 15 days, through its legal counsel. Furthermore, CBMAK is requesting a hundred crores in compensation through the legal notice for the losses, damages, and mental anguish they have experienced.Tramboo Sports Pvt. Ltd. has responded that there were misconceptions because the televised pitch on "Shark Tank India" was only a small portion of a presentation that lasted more than an hour. The corporation also underlined how everyone should prioritise business development and support the community's entrepreneurial ecosystem.
