Vinod Kambli has been grabbing the headlines for his deteriorating health conditions. Now, he has recently opened up about his health struggles and financial challenges, revealing the vital role played by his childhood friend Sachin Tendulkar. Tendulkar provided financial assistance to Kambli during two critical surgeries following a heart attack in 2013. Kambli underwent the procedures at Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai and expressed deep gratitude for Tendulkar’s unwavering support during that difficult period. Reflecting on his recent health issues, Kambli opened up about it in an interview with Vickey Lalwani. He shared that he faced a medical emergency about a month ago, requiring hospitalization at three different facilities. He described the incident as a sudden collapse at home, where his son and daughter had to assist him. His wife, Andrea, took him to the hospital multiple times, ensuring he received the necessary care. He credited her for her dedication and encouragement. Kambli emphasized that he is now doing better and continues to focus on his health. Addressing past speculation about health problems linked to alcohol addiction, Kambli clarified that he had quit drinking and smoking months before his collapse. He recounted an incident where he suddenly fainted while driving, leading to an emergency trip to the hospital. He also noted that surviving two heart attacks has reinforced his determination to prioritize his health, with his wife standing by him through these challenges.

Virat Kohli took to the field as the Test captain for the first time ever during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia, marking a start of perhaps country's golden period in Test cricket, which witnessed plenty of records broken, on-field confrontations and aggression and the long-format cricket at its very best, which marked a massive paradigm shift in the way India played its cricket in white clothing. The first Test against Australia at Adelaide Oval saw a 25-year-old donning the captain's blazer for the first time ever, due to MS Dhoni's unavailability due to an injury.

day-night Test seemed like an exciting idea, the panacea for the problem. Over the years, it seems to have lost its sheen. Except Australia, no country plays it regularly. In fact, they have hosted 13 out of 23 pink ball Tests that have been played so far. England and South Africa haven’t hosted a pink ball Test since 2017. Sri Lanka have never hosted one. India haven’t played a pink Test at home since March 2022 and there is nothing to suggest that it will change anytime soon. For all practical purposes, it has been reduced to tokenism championed by Australia whenever a touring side travels down under.
