5 Unbreakable Records of Royal Challengers Bengaluru in IPL

1. Individual Highest Score in IPL (175*)

On April 23, 2013, the Universe Boss and the T20 legend, Chris Gayle wrote his name in the history books by playing staggering and stupendous innings of 175* off just 66 against PWI.

The duo of Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers stitched a breathtaking partnership of 229 runs for the second wicket as they registered the most runs for any wicket in the history of the league against Gujarat Lions in IPL 2016.

RCB batters have managed to smash the most, 19, centuries in the history of the league. Gayle and Kohli both have slammed eight and six centuries respectively while de Villiers struck three tons during his illustrious IPL career.

4. Most runs in IPL by a player in a season

Former RCB skipper Virat Kohli took the 2016 season by storm, as the star batter hammered a mammoth 973 runs in the campaign.

Chris Gayle’s juggernaut innings of 175* off 66 against PWI in Bangalore in 2013 also created the record for most sixes in an innings. The dashing West Indian smacked 17 monstrous sixes along with 13 fours.

5 Unbreakable Records of Mumbai Indians in IPL

In the 45th match of the 2017 season, DC hosted MI at their home ground, Arun Jaitley stadium. After winning the toss Delhi opted to field with the aim of restricting Delhi to a low total. But it was not to be as Mumbai mounted a huge total of 212 at the back of Lendl Simmons’ 43-ball 66.

2. Best bowling figures by Alzarri Joseph

In IPL 2019 against SRH, Joseph struck early as he got the better of skipper and premier batsman David Warner. He then got wickets at regular intervals and pegged back the SRH innings. As a result, SRH were bundled out for 96 and Joseph finished with figures of 6/12.

The MI versus CSK rivalry has been one of the fiercest in the history of the league. MI have one very strong record against CSK, which proves their supremacy. Mumbai Indians were unbeaten at Chennai’s home turf, the MA Chidambaram stadium for 10 straight years from 2011 to 2021.

MI have won five IPL trophies making them the most successful team in the history of the tournament. While winning the trophy even once is still a dream for few franchises, MI have breached this milestone as many as five times.

Mumbai Indians are the only team to win the IPL, Women’s Premier League and the now-defunctioned Champions League. The record is unlikely to be broken unless CSK have a women’s team with only them winning the CL other than MI.

Termites can cause extensive damage to your home if left unchecked. Here are five simple ways to get rid of termites.


To attract and kill termites, place termite baits around your house. They carry the bait back to their colony, which helps to eliminate the entire population.

Use a solution based on borate to treat wood surfaces. Borates infiltrate the wood, eliminating termites that eat it and prevent more infestations.

Apply liquid termiticide to the soil around your home. This creates a barrier that kills termites on contact and prevents future infestations.

Install physical barriers like steel mesh or sand around your home’s foundation to block termites from entering.

Contact a pest control professional for a thorough inspection and specialised treatment options to effectively eliminate your termite problem.

5 Simple Ways to Get Rid of Termites

1. First team to win three consecutive titles

In 2010 and 2011, Chennai Super Kings won three consecutive titles having won the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2010 and 2011 titles which were sandwiched by Champions League title in 2010 which they won in South Africa.

2. 10 consecutive Playoffs qualifications

Between 2008 and 2020, Chennai played 10 seasons (missed 2016 and 2017 due to ban) and managed to qualify for the Playoffs each and every time.

3. The lowest successful score defended in IPL

Batting first in 2009 against Kings XI Punjab, Chennai found it really difficult to get runs quickly. Parthiv Patel, who opened the batting for Chennai managed a 23-ball 32, after which CSK’s back almost broke. Some tight bowling meant Dhoni’s men had only 116 in the bag but still defended it.

4. Most wickets in a season by any bowler

Dwayne Bravo in IPL 2013 ended with 32 wickets in the season, most ever by a bowler ever in a season. He was the first to cross the barrier of 30 wickets as well and remained the only one until Kagiso Rabada took 30 scalps in 2020.

In his entire IPL career MS Dhoni took charge of 226 matches, a record unlikely to be broken considering both Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are no longer captain of their respective sides.

In total, Messi found the net 120 times for Barca in Europe, which is more goals for one club than anyone else. It's also more goals than anyone else combined except for Ronaldo. Astonishing.

One of the most impressive is Lionel Messi’s feat of going 18 seasons straight finding the net in the competition. This speaks not only to his quality but the longevity at the top the diminutive magician also managed.

The Real Madrid superstar bagged nine goals in the group stages, four goals in the round of 16, one strike in the quarter-finals, two in the semi-finals and one more for good luck in the climax itself during the 2016-17 season. 

Ronaldo has twice managed to go on an 11-game goalscoring streak in the Champions League. Starting in the 2017 final, the striker would pick up where he left off the following season, finding the net in each of Real's first 10 games in the 2017/18 campaign.

10 Photos Taken by James Webb Space Telescope

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) was launched on December 25, 2021. Unlike the Hubble Space Telescope, Webb does not orbit the Earth but the sun. Here are 10 incredible photos taken by the James Webb Space Telescope.

This image taken by the JWST shows two galaxies: a Penguin (NGC 2936) guarding an Egg (NGC 2937). The two galaxies have been merging for millions of years and will become one in future.

About 390 light-years from Earth, this image shows Rho Ophiuchi, which is a cloud complex full of gas and stars of different ages and sizes. The image was taken by NASA’s JWST and Chandra X-ray Observatory.

This image shows the Orion Nebula, located in the Milky Way Galaxy. It is an enormous cloud where stars form and is 1,500 light-years away from the Earth.


This image is of galaxy NGC 3627, located 36 million light-years away. Like the Milky Way, this galaxy is a spiral galaxy and is at a slight angle from us.

The image shows the galaxy cluster SPT-CL J0615−5746 in a wide-field view. It is a collection of dozens of galaxies captured by the James Webb Space Telescope.


6 Secret Societies That Remain Shrouded In Mystery  

The image is of the Crab Nebula, which was once a massive star and now is a remnant of a supernova explosion. With Webb, scientists were able to map the light emitted from the dust in high resolution.

The JWST captured the “starburst” galaxy NGC 4449, which is 12.5 million light years away from Earth. Starbursts occur when concentrated star formation takes place at a galaxy's core, however, this one is more widespread.

This is an image of NGC 6440 captured by the JWST. It is a star cluster in the central area of the Milky Way galaxy, 28,000 light years away. This globular cluster comprises older stars tied together by gravity.


This sharp infrared image captured by Webb is of a Horsehead Nebula. Its name comes from its appearance which resembles the top of a horse's mane.

Why Do You Get Nosebleeds During Periods? How To Stop It?


It's normal for women to get nosebleeds when they get their periods. Hormonal fluctuations around the menstrual cycle lead to changes in the nasal mucosa and the small blood vessels inside the nose become more fragile.

Why Does it Happen? Some experts also say that menstruation causes an overall increase in blood flow and blood pressure, which can result in nosebleeds.


Frequent nosebleeds during the menstrual cycle may also indicate a disorder or illness, such as thrombocytopenia, Von Willebrand Disease (VWD), and endometriosis.


When it happens, pinch your nose with your thumb and index finger and apply pressure for a few minutes.

Check and if the bleeding hasn't stopped, repeat the process.


If you don't see any improvement, go straight to a medical professional for a checkup.

The routine and habits of consuming food can be an important factor in maintaining a person's health. Here is what Ayurveda says about the right time to consume dinner.

Traditional Ayurveda recommends consuming food twice a day, however, people nowadays usually consume three meals.

To ensure the dinner is properly digested, a person should eat two or three hours before going to bed, before 8 pm.

Ayurveda recommends a healthy diet should include low carbs and high proteins and follow a balanced diet. The food must be well-cooked and easy to digest.
