Kochi, May 5: Bowlers claiming all ten wickets in an innings is a rarity in cricket and more so in junior level cricket. But on Wednesday 18-year-old Nazil CT from Kannur became the first bowler to achieve the unique feat of claiming all ten wickets in an innings in Kerala's junior inter-district tournament history.

NazilNazil was the cynosure of all eyes on the opening day of two-day U-19 inter-district cricket match at the KCA stadium in Perinthalmanna as his ten-wicket haul helped his side, Kannur, bundle out Malappuram for just 26 in their first innings. The lad who has just completed his plus two ended up with figures of 9.4-2-12-10 Nazil, who considers himself predominantly a swing bowler, was ecstatic at his achievement. "I'm an inswing bowler and I don't strive for much pace and it helped that the ball moved around in the morning," he said.

Out of his 10 scalps, 4 were bowled and three were leg-before wickets which exemplifies the fact that he kept probing the stumps.

Nazil comes from a family with a cricketing background. Fabid Farooq, the off-spinner who made his first-class debut for Kerala last season, is the son of Nazil's uncle. Nazil nurses ambitions of following the footsteps of his cousin and playing Ranji Trophy.

"I would like to play for Kerala one day. For the moment, it's about doing well for my district team," said the pacer who idolises Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, another swing

Bengaluru, Jan 13: RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat on Monday held a protest march at Ramnagar district’s 
Kapalabetta under the aegis of Hindu Jagran Vedike’s ‘Kanakapura Chalo’ campaign against the construction of the world’s largest Jesus statue there.

Hundreds of protesters of the Vedike staged a protest march in the city starting from the Kanakapura Ayyappaswamy temple.

“We are not here to disturb the peace. We have met each other at the wedding of Sriramulu’s daughter. So you know who I am, DK Shivakumar. How long will you continue with these lies? Is the intention behind the statue of Jesus to solidify your vote bank? Build the statue in America or England, we will not allow it here,” said the RSS leader as the keynote speaker at the rally.

Ahmedabad/New Delhi, Jan 22: Interpol has issued a Blue Corner Notice seeking information about controversial self-styled godman Nithyananda, who fled the country amid allegations of wrongful confinement of children, officials said on Wednesday.

A Blue Corner Notice is issued by the international police cooperation body to collect additional information from its member countries about a person's identity, location or activities in relation to a crime.

The Gujarat Police had sent a request to the CBI, the nodal body for Interpol matters in India, seeking a Blue Corner Notice against Nithyananda, the officials said.

"Interpol issued the Blue Corner Notice against the controversial godman this month," Deputy Superintendent of Police, Ahmedabad (rural), K T Kamariya, told PTI.

The police said they are now working to get Interpol to issue a Red Corner Notice, a global arrest warrant, against Nithyananda.

The Gujarat Police had registered an FIR against Nithyananda after two girls went missing from his ashram in Ahmedabad.

He was charged with kidnapping and wrongful confinement of children to make them collect donations from followers to run his ashram.

Nithyananda was earlier declared wanted by the Gujarat Police.

While police continue to look for him, reports emerged in December last year that he has created a Hindu nation, Kailaasa, with its own flag and political setup, on an island near Ecuador.
