Yuvraj Singh arrested in alleged casteist remarks case, released on bail

The Haryana Police on Sunday said cricketer Yuvraj Singh was arrested and released on bail in an alleged casteist remarks case in compliance with a high court order. Singh was accused of making casteist remarks against another cricketer during an Instagram chat last year. Superintendent of Police (Hansi) Nitika Gahlaut said over the phone, "We only made a formal arrest and he was released on bail in compliance of the orders of the Punjab and Haryana High Court."

Foresee spinners having big impact in T20 World Cup: Samuel Badree

Former West Indies bowler Samuel Badree feels the slow nature of wickets in UAE will help spinners in the ICC men's T20 World Cup 2021 which gets underway from Sunday."Because of the heat factor and the dry nature of the surfaces, you always expect spinners to do well. The slow nature of the pitches also helps with that," said Badree in an ICC release."Spinners will do particularly well in Dubai, as well as in Sharjah, which give you more of an opportunity. They will prosper less in Abu Dhabi because in my memory there is a lot of grass on the pitch there.Badree has also backed India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and South Africa spinner Tabraiz Shamsi to have a good tournament as spin has always played an important role in T20 cricket."When it comes to the best spinner at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, it's hard to look past Tabraiz Shamsi. The South African is ranked No.1 in the ICC Men's T20I Player Rankings for a reason and as a left-armer, he poses a significant challenge for ...
