India's Solar Power

GH on the emergence of a new generation

Astronomers have identified a phenomenon called the JuMBO mystery - celestial bodies with stellar cores that somehow fail to become stars. They have a new theory, called photo erosion, which explains this by the influence of massive, luminous OB stars, whose blast winds of radiation prevent evolution in their solar neighbourhood.

In cricket, there is no solar neighbourhood quite like India. Their stars have a gravitation and magnetism as those of no other country - Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Ravi Ashwin, Ravi Jadeja and Jasprit Bumrah are solar systems in their own right, while Sachin Tendulkar was virtually an entire nebula. For the rest of the game’s galaxy, buffeted by the radiations from these reputations, the scope is more limited. Viz Nitish Kumar Reddy and Washington Sundar.
