T20 World Cup 2021: Aaron Finch getting back in shape after knee surgery

Last month, Finch was ruled out of the rest of the matches against West Indies and Bangladesh due to a knee injury

NEW DELHI — According to Cricket Australia, Aaron Finch, Australia's white-ball captain, has had a successful knee operation and is expected to recover in eight to 10 weeks.

According to the report, Finch will also be eligible for the opening games of the next T20 World Cup in October.

Due to a knee injury, Finch was ruled out of the rest of the West Indies and Bangladesh tour last month.

Aaron Finch will be back in around two-months’ time

"His healing is likely to take 8-10 weeks, meaning he should be eligible for the World Cup's opening games in mid-October," Cricket Australia said in a statement, according to ESPNcricinfo.

Finch sustained the injury during practice before the T20 series against the West Indies in St Lucia, which worsened in the series' final game. Matthew Wade captained the Australian team during the Bangladesh series in Finch's absence.

Australia was defeated 4-1 by the hosts in the five-match series. Australia had previously lost the T20I series against the West Indies by the same score.

Finch likely to play in Men's T20 World Cup 2021

The Australian star cricketer is now expected to recover fully well in time before the start of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021.

Meanwhile, the groupings for the Men's T20 World Cup 2021, hosted by the BCCI in Oman and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from October 17 to November 14, were released by the International Cricket Council (ICC) last month.

In Group 1 of the Super 12s, reigning champions West Indies are paired alongside former champions England, South Africa, and Australia, with two qualifiers from Round 1 joining them, based on team rankings as of March 20, 2021.

Former champions India and Pakistan, New Zealand, Afghanistan, and the other two qualifiers from Round 1 will make up Group 2.

Pertinently, Australia had never won the T20 World Cup, with their best finish being a runner-up place in 2010 in Barbados, when they lost to England in the final.

Lathi Charge: A legalised method of police brutality

"Every blow on our bodies this afternoon is like a nail driven into the coffin of British imperialism." These were the precise words of Sher-e-Punjab Lala Lajpat Rai when he got brutally " lathi-charged " by the law enforcers of Colonial India while he was protesting against the Simon Commission in October 1928.  Punjab Kesari Lajpat Rai eventually succumbed to his injuries, and his death gave off the spark for vengeance in the heart of numerous Indian revolutionaries. In December 1928, Shahid-e-Azam Bhagat Singh and his compatriot Shivam Rajguru assassinated the Lahore Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Saunders to avenge the murder of their mentor. "Lathi-Charge" has remained one of the most brutal and sensitive issues for Indians since the bygone days of the Indian National Movement. Thus, even after 75 years of liberation, India and her children continue to writhe under pain brought on by police brutality and paranoia. Both the Indian Penal...

" India is an over populous country. " This statement is hardly news to anyone, but very few of us know that the average age of an Indian is just 29 years old. Hence, India is a fairly young country with a strong demographic dividend. However, the ambitions and dreams of millions of Indians lie stranded despite their ability and competence. Each new year brings fresh new hopes for millions of aspirants. These young people have expressed their strong will by deciding to dedicate the prime of their youth to preparing for numerous government examinations. In a country where social class divisions continue to be a notable phenomenon in determining one's future, Government jobs and recruitments offer the only genuine means for attaining an egalitarian society. Today, even this little scope for upliftment gets marred under the evils of Paper leaks and Recruitment scams. The problem of the youth, in essence, is the problem of the nation, and it is high time we illustrated the gr...
