BBC Asian Network - BBC Asian Network's Big Debate, MS Dhoni’s wicket-keeping gloves

Should MS Dhoni remove an Indian military insignia from his wicket-keeping gloves?

Should MS Dhoni remove an Indian Military insignia from his wicket-keeping gloves? Nihal is asking this after the Indian cricketer has been asked by the International Cricket Council to remove it from his gloves during the World Cup. Then we speak to Rekha Sharma who talks about the challenges she’s faced after being born with a facial disfigurement. The 26-year-old is a successful lawyer and living life on her own terms. After that we hear about a group of disadvantaged children from India who are coming to Britain to perform the Jai Jagat show to mark Mahatma Ghandi’s 150th birthday. Plus endurance athlete Louis Supple talks to Nihal about why he wants to encourage more Asians to push their body to the limit in extreme conditions. He's previously completed ultra-marathons through the Sahara, the Amazon and most recently a trip to Svalbard where he skied for 200km.
