August 25, 2014

Singhs fatherPanchkula, Aug 25: Haryana police on Sunday night arrested Yograj Singh, father of cricketer Yuvraj Singh, in a case of late-night brawl over a car parking in Panchkula town.

Yograj, a former cricketer who has also worked as an actor in Punjabi movies, was held on late Sunday night following the violent clash between a group of his friends and NRI relatives and their neighbours.

Yograj and his friend allegedly attacked a former deputy superintendent of police (DSP) and his two sons.

Along with Yograj, Panchkula police have arrested four more people including former cricketer's friend Bhupinder Singh, former Chandigarh police DSP Ashanand and his two sons Sumit Nand and Sunil Narang, both advocates.

Yograj was recently treated for the cancer of vocal chords.

"We have registered cross FIRs against both the parties as it was a case of clash and both the groups attacked each other," said inspector Baljeet, SHO of sector 5 police station in Panchkula.

Police said that Bhupinder, the friend of Yograj, lives right in front of the family of former DSP in sector 2 of Panchkula and have had arguments over parking in the past too.

Police said that Yograj's NRI cousin Kuljeet Kaur, 50, and her son Aaron, 28, and daughter Tanya Kaur, 25, a doctor in England, who have come to India on vacation, were staying at Bhupinder's house in sector 2.

The trouble started on Sunday night after Bhupinder returned to his house along with the relatives of Yograj after attending birthday party of ex-cricketer's 12-year-old daughter Amy in latter's house in neighbouring Manimajra town of Chandigarh.

As Bhupinder started parking his car, the DSP along with his two sons raised an objection and soon the heated arguments turned into a scuffle, said police.

Bhupinder, in the meantime, phoned Yograj, who reached his house accompanied by his bodyguards and allegedly attacked the ex-DSP and his two sons.

Police said sharp-edged weapons were used in the brawl and Bhupinder along with Kuljeet Kaur, Aaron and Tanya Kaur suffered injuries and were treated at the government hospital.

Police said Tanya has also levelled allegations of molestation against Ashanand, Sumit Nand and Sunil Narang.

According to SHO Baljeet, a case under sections 148 (rioting with weapons), 149 (unlawful assembly), 323 (causing injuries), 452 (house trespass), 506 (criminal intimidation) has been registsred against Yograj and Bhupinder and another case under sections 323 (causing injuries), 506 (criminal intimidation), 34 (criminal act done by several persons with common intention) of the IPC has been registered against the ex-DSP and his two sons.

The five accused would be produced in a Panchkula court later on Monday afternoon, added SHO Baljeet.

Milan, Mar 28: Juventus star Paulo Dybala revealed how he "struggled to breathe" after contracting coronavirus which has killed over 9,000 people in Italy.

The Argentine international announced last Saturday he was one of three Juventus players to catch the virus along with Daniele Rugani and Blaise Matuidi, who both had no symptoms.

"I feel better now after some strong symptoms," the 26-year-old Dybala told JTV channel.

"A couple of days ago I was not well, I felt heavy and after five minutes of movement I had to stop because I was struggling to breathe.

"Now I can move and walk to start trying to train, because when I tried in the past few days I started to shake too much.

"I gasped for air and as a result I couldn't do anything, after five minutes I was already very tired, I felt the body heavy and my muscles hurt.

"Now I'm fine. My fiancee Oriana (Sabatini) has also overcome the symptoms."

Dybala has scored 13 goals in all competitions this season, including in league leader's Juventus's last game against Inter Milan before Serie A and all sport in Italy was suspended.

"The goal against Inter was the greatest emotion, (Aaron) Ramsey provided the perfect assist - it's a pity that there was no public," added Dybala.

Feb 16: Mayank Agarwal finally found some form going his way and Rishabh Pant mixed caution with his customary aggression as India's warm-up fixture against New Zealand XI ended in a draw in Hamilton on Sunday. The match was called off an hour after lunch with India reaching 252 for four just 48 overs into their second innings. Agarwal, who had gone through a wretched period since the second Test against Bangladesh, retired on 81 off 99 balls with 10 fours and three sixes to his name. To the relief of the Indian team management, Pant played in his customary manner to reach 70 off 65 balls, but also showed discretion when the opposition bowlers were in the midst of a good spell.

There were four sixes -- two each off leg-spinner Ish Sodhi and off-spinner Henry Cooper. While Sodhi was hit down the ground, Cooper was dispatched over extra cover on a couple of occasions.

He didn't curb his aggression though; there were times when he was ready defend against the spinners and also leave some of the deliveries that the Kiwi pacers bowled.

Even though Pant is easily the better batsman compared to his senior Wriddhiman Saha, the innings might have come too late in the day considering that the latter is a better keeper and possibly a more responsible batsman in pressure situations.

The biggest positive to have emerged from the second innings is Agarwal's poor run coming to an end.

The Seddon Park track easing out was definitely a factor but Agarwal's footwork was more assured as he played some glorious on-drives and pull-shots off fast bowlers.

Before this game, Agarwal had played 10 competitive games including first-class, ODIs and List A matches and couldn't cross the 40-run mark in 11 completed innings.

He even bagged a pair against New Zealand A in an unofficial Test match. Once he had got his form back, he didn't come out to bat after lunch giving Saha an opportunity to score an unbeaten 30, his runs coming mostly against non-regular bowlers.

The Agarwal-Pant pair added 100 runs in 14.3 overs and it also helped that part-timers like Cooper was introduced into the action. In the morning, Prithvi Shaw (39 off 31 balls) was bowled through the gate by Daryl Mitchell as the batsman left a gaping hole between his bat and pad.

Shaw, though, seemed to have done enough during his brisk 72-run stand with Agarwal, which could put an end to the debate around the opening slot even though the tracks in Wellington and Christchurch could be a test of technique for the flamboyant Mumbaikar.

It was a match that Shubman Gill would perhaps like to forget in a hurry as he was dismissed cheaply for the second time in a row. He scored 8 before Daryl Mitchell trapped him leg before.

Other movies in the list include 'Bombshell,' 'Dolemite Is My Name,' 'Harriet,' 'Jojo Rabbit,' 'Knives Out' and 'Little Women.'

According to The Hollywood Reporter, 'The Irishman' may have gone into the 2020 Golden Globes with the second-highest number of film nominations, tied with 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' with five nods, but Martin Scorsese's highly anticipated mob epic for Netflix was completely shut out at the award ceremony.

Netflix's nominated films 'Dolemite Is My Name' and 'The Two Popes' was tied with 'Joker' with four mentions each and failed to grab any awards.

'Dolemite Is My Name' star Eddie Murphy was expected by a number of pundits to win for best actor in a motion picture, musical or comedy.

'Bombshell', 'Harriet',' Frozen 2', 'Jojo Rabbit', 'Knives Out', 'The Lion King', 'Little Women' and 'Pain and Glory' are among the other films that received multiple nominations but didn't win a single award.

On the TV side, Netflix's 'Unbelievable' tied in the race to most small-screen nominations with 'Chernobyl' and 'The Crown' with four nominations, and 'The Crown' won only one award, for star Olivia Colman.

The three-time nominees 'Barry', 'Big Little Lies', 'The Kominsky Method' and 'The Morning Show' also didn't grab any award. 'Catch-22', 'Killing Eve', 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel' and 'The Politician' who were two-time nominees that were also iced out.

'Hustlers' star Jennifer Lopez failed to take home the best-supporting actress award as she was predicted to win the award by a number of pundits. Billy porter also failed to make history with the best drama actor win for his role on 'Pose,' if he would've won the award, he reportedly would have been the first openly gay African-American to win that award.

'Chernobyl' won two of its four nominations. Despite that, star Jared Harris didn't win the best actor in a limited series Globe which was predicted by many prognosticators. The award was bagged by Russell Crowe for his portrayal of Roger Ailes in 'The Loudest Voice.' But the star was absent from the ceremony.
