India's Jadeja injured his hamstring batting against Australia but continued, later got hit on the head, still kept batting and made 44 from 23 balls, out of a total of 161-7. In the break before Australia batted he was substituted...

    For me the issue is that the government spout so much shit people have lost confidence that anything they come out with is the truth. Even in the gutter that is politics where covid is concerned it should have been the case that the government were truthful and upfront with the public from day...
