Shreyas Iyer has had a great start to his stint as the captain of the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. KKR have won two of their first three matches so far this season and are currently sitting on the top of the points table with four points. Iyer has been exceptional as a leader but is yet to fire with the bat.

On Friday, KKR defeated Punjab Kings by six wickets to bag their second win of the season after successfully chasing down the target of 138 runs with 33 balls to spare. However, Iyer once again failed to make a significant contribution as he was dismissed on 26 off 15 balls.

After getting dismissed trying to go big against spinner Wanindu Hasaranga in KKR’s last game against RCB, Iyer once again fell prey to spin in the game against Punjab. Iyer tried to take on leg-spinner Rahul Chahar and was caught by Kagiso Rabada on 26 off 15 balls against Punjab on Friday.

Former India cricketer and notable commentator Aakash Chopra has issued a warning to Iyer amid his struggles against spin and said the KKR skipper needs to ‘get his act together’. Chopra said Iyer cannot get out trying to play shots like the one he played against Chahar on Friday.

“Shreyas Iyer seems to have an issue with leg-spinners. It looks at the ball and seems he wants to hit a six. Last match he got out to (Wanindu) Hasaranga. He’s too good a player to play shots like these get out. Yes, Shreyas, you got to get your act together,” Chopra said in a video on his YouTube channel.

Iyer has so far scored 59 runs in three matches for KKR and will be hoping to get a big score under his belt soon. While he has not yet fired with the bat, KKR have enjoyed a great start to the season under his captaincy and will be looking to make it three wins in five matches when they take on Mumbai Indians in their next game on Wednesday (April 06).

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.
