As I said in the heat of the battle, you want to be competitive but yeah I have been proven wrong.” During the series, the Australian cricketers were seen making fun of Kohli’s shoulder injury. |
| Air India cancelled Shiv Sena’s ‘goon’ MP Ravindra Gaikwad’s ticket again today. The MP tried to book a Mumbai-Delhi AI flight for Wednesday through a call centre. As all the airlines stand united against allowing the MP, who had beaten an Air India staff on Friday, Gaikwad is now learnt to be taking Mumbai-Delhi Rajdhani. |
