The schoolteacher who bowled us over
What do you mean you're missing cricket? We've already found a new superstar of the game while you were watching old YouTube videos. Schoolteacher Bindu Ozhukil's video of playing cricket with her family went viral last week on social media. According to a report in the Hindu, Ozhukil, who hadn't participated in the family games previously, chanced her arm for a few deliveries and impressed her husband and sons, one of whom recorded his mother's bowling and batting. "We still don't know how that video, which was shot just for fun, has gone viral," her husband told the newspaper. "We have been flooded with calls from our friends and relatives since then and it is now heard that it has been noted even by some cricket officials."

Cricket is a cruel sport. Ravi Bopara shared a photo from his age-group cricket days and his mates weren't very kind (in the replies). Hope y'all have better friends.
