LONDON: Former Pakistan quick Shoaib Akhtar said MS Dhoni is faster than a computer when it comes to cricketing acumen.

"Dhoni is faster than a computer. Whatever a computer can say about playing on a certain wicket, I believe that MS Dhoni can do it faster," said the former Pakistan pacer in his YouTube channel.

Dhoni scored 34 and effected a stumping as India cantered to a six-wicket victory over South Africa to start their World Cup campaign on a high on Wednesday.

Akhtar also lavished praise on KL Rahul who has been identified as India's No. 4 batsman for the World Cup after much debate.

Rahul scored 26 and more importantly shared an 85-run stand with centurion Rohit Sharma to steady India's ship after the loss of skipper Virat Kohli and helped the two time World champions coast to victory in the end.

Jaipur (PTI): A 20-year-old nursing student was found murdered with her throat slit in a rented room in Khairthal-Tijara district of Rajasthan, police said on Saturday.

The incident took place in a residential building in front of Mundawar police station on Friday afternoon, they said.

The accused, Upendra Kumar (21) from Haryana's Mahendergarh, was arrested while trying to flee the spot.

The father of the deceased alleged that his daughter was kidnapped, raped and then killed.

The incident sparked outrage among local residents, who blocked the main road for about 30 minutes before police dispersed them.

Police said the accused lived in the same rented premises.

Mundwar Station House Officer Ramniwas Meena said Upendra Kumar has been arrested based on complaint filed by the deceased woman's father.

Meanwhile, Leader of Opposition Tikaram Jully termed the murder proof that women remain highly unsafe in Rajasthan and accused the BJP government of turning a blind eye to such crimes.

"It is being proved that women are extremely unsafe in Rajasthan. A nursing student was abducted, raped and brutally murdered by slitting her throat in Mundawar. People are outraged but the BJP government has shut its eyes and ears to everything," he said.
