He was the part of Indian cricket's golden quartet of spinners, others being Erapalli Prasanna, Bhagwat Chadrasekhar and Srinivas Venkataraghavan, who formed the core of India's bowling unit for more than a decade between 1966 and 1978. Bedi was briefly the manager of the Indian cricket team in 1990 during tours of New Zealand and England. He was also a national selector and mentor to many talented spinners like Maninder Singh and Murali Kartik, who all swore by his technical insight.

<keyword id="19899525" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jasprit-bumrah" source="keywords">Jasprit Bumrah</keyword> on Wednesday became the first Indian pacer to top the ICC Test rankings after a stellar performance against England in Visakhapatnam.

Ashwin, on 499 Test wickets, is now third in the standings. Bumrah now has 881 rating points with Ashwin (904) and Jadeja (899) the only India bowlers to have aggregated more rating points. Ashwin and Jadeja also have the unique distinction of being jointly top-ranked in March 2017. The batting rankings see left-handed opener Yashasvi Jaiswal progress 37 places to 29th after completing a fine double-century in the first innings and Shubman Gill go up 14 places to a career-best 38th after notching a century in the second innings.

Rookie leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed has moved up 14 places to 70th while Tom Hartley, who became just the second England player with at least 50 runs and five wickets in each of his first two Tests, has advanced in both lists - up from 103rd to 95th in the batting rankings and from 63rd to 53rd in the bowling rankings. The latest rankings have also factored in performances in the one-off Test between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan in Colombo. Left-arm spinner Prabhath Jayasuriya has moved up to three places to a career-best sixth position after his eight-wicket match haul helped the home side win by 10 wickets. In the ODI rankings, Australia leg-spinner Adam Zampa is up one place to third and fast bowler Sean Abbott's six wickets in the three-match series against the West Indies this past week have lifted him 35 places to joint-33rd position.

Corruption in gentleman’s game has eventually got clean bowled, thanks to Justice Lodha Committee, which has suspended the IPL franchises Chennai Super King (CSK) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) for 2 years. 
 
Charged with being found guilty of betting and misconduct, the historical judgement suspended CSK team official Gurunath Meiyappan and Rajasthan Royals co-owner Raj Kundra for life from any cricketing activity undertaken by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). 
 
And it’s no surprise then that Twitter reacted strongly! As hours passed, #iplverdict gathered up the steam and was the trend in the micro-blogging site. 
 
Some notable Twitter reactions were:

Not only did the sports enthusiasts voiced there opinion on just IPL, but they did inject some humour by bringing Lalit Modi, the founder of IPL into the battle.
