  “How can a gora hit me?” A heated dressing-room clash between Sehwag & John Wright during the 2002 NatWest Series. “I had been dismissed playing big shots in the last three-four outings. John Wright told me to ‘just play and bat 40 overs and score a fifty, I don’t want to lose you’. I didn’t know much English back then and didn’t realise he was referring to me getting dropped from the side.” Sehwag still played his natural game and was dismissed attempting a big shot. “When I came back to the dressing room, he grabbed me by the collar and pushed me towards a chair.” “I got so angry, I went straight to Rajeev Shukla ji and told him I’m heading back home. He asked me what happened. I told him, ‘that gora hit me. How can a gora hit me?’” Rajeev Shukla later intervened to calm the situation (with the help of Sachin Tendulkar) with Sehwag insisting on an apology before reconciling.

  Cash machines and bank branches have been disappearing across Britain, even though many basic card and PIN problems still require an ATM or in-person banking service. UK regulators and LINK data show a sharp reduction in free-to-use ATMs and ongoing branch closures, while millions of people still rely on cash access. The debate over access to cash, digital banking, NatWest, HSBC, Lloyds and bank branch closures raises serious questions about who modern banking is actually designed for.

  Joint borrowers earning £150,000+ can now borrow up to 6.5× their income. NatWest will lend at 6.5× for higher earners, but only if they’re borrowing 75% LTV or less. Pros Higher borrowing power — High income earners can access larger mortgages, which helps in expensive markets like London where property prices are high. More competitive offering — NatWest becomes more attractive to wealthy buyers who might otherwise go to specialist lenders. Useful for joint high earners — Couples earning £150k+ combined can stretch further to buy homes in premium areas. Potentially better rates — The article notes NatWest often has best buy rates, so borrowers may get both a high LTI and a good interest rate. Cons Higher financial risk — Borrowing 6.5x income is a big commitment. If interest rates rise or income drops, repayments can become stressful. Lower LTV allowed — To borrow at 6.5x, you must have at least a 25% deposit. That’s a huge barrier for many people. Only for high earners — This doesn’t help average income buyers struggling with affordability. It widens the gap between who can and can’t buy. Could push prices up — Allowing people to borrow more can fuel higher property prices, especially in already expensive areas. This move is good for wealthy buyers who want bigger loans, but it does nothing for regular earners and may even increase market pressure. It’s a strategic play by NatWest to attract high income clients, not a broad affordability solution.

  Anyone else having problems with their NatWest Banking App following the last 2 phone updates? Last time I had to phone NW and they said they had others saying the same. I had to delete and reinstate my APP. I had an update last night and now can’t get in my NW Banking APP again
