The India v England test match is in full swing at Headingley today, as the two teams lock horns at Leeds' home ground for their third test match after more than a week-long wait.
There's been some food-related excitement, too, as Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli was spotted popping into Leeds' street food favourite Bundobust for a late lunch and 'piping hot selfie' with their chef, Rosul, yesterday afternoon.
Clocked dining with Indian actress and Hindi filmmaker extraordinare Anushka Sharma, the pair got stuck into the venue's street food menu - which is known for its popular Indian street food treats like vada pavs (a fried potato burger popular on the streets of Mumbai), okra fries and paneer tikka kebabs.

Having posed for a selfie with the chef in their masks, the image was then shared to Bundobust's Instagram page last night with the caption:
"Big day at Leeds Bundo. It’s not every day that India Cricket Captain @virat.kohli and Actor and Film Producer supremo @anushkasharma bob into Bundobust for a late lunch. Luckily our chef Rosul was on hand to serve up a piping hot selfie.

"Best of luck to Virat tomorrow in the India v England test match at Headingley tomorrow."
Naturally, there was a lot of excitement in the comments with fans piling in to give their two cents on the visit.
One joked, "Too late to request you lock the door & keep him there for the next 5 days?" whilst another said, "Thanks you lot, he’ll be supercharged by okra fries now!"
The couple has also been spotted at Leeds Michelin-recommended Indian restaurant Theravadu, with Anushka Sharma reportedly wearing at dress worth £10,000 for their dinner.
The Bundobust post has already racked up over a thousand likes on the page, with fans now on the hunt to see where they might dine next in the city.
As women around the world swoon over Jacob Elordi, he's too busy loving rocks and sheep.
In case you haven't been on social media over the past week and managed to avoid the influx of paparazzi images, the hotly anticipated 'Wuthering Heights' adaptation is out soon and with that comes heaps of red carpets, screenings and glamorous premieres.
Famously set against the brooding hills of Yorkshire, Wuthering Heights by our very own Emily Brontë follows the tumultuous love story of Heathcliff and Cathy.
Played in the upcoming film by Australian heartthrobs Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie.
During the recent London premiere where Elordi was seen wearing a rather dashing green three piece, the stars were asked what they thought the 'sexiest' thing about Yorkshire is by HitsRadioUK.
A valid question to which Jacob replies "rocks and sheep". I mean, he's got a fair point.
Margot Robbie went into a little more detail, she said "Sunrise and sunset in Yorkshire is a pretty dramatic experience. The sky is literally like red and orange. I honestly couldn't believe it when I was out there. The landscape is stunning."
Why thank you Margot, we absolutely agree. She continues to shower us with compliments stating that the "People are lovely. Pubs are great. I love it"
It seems like Margot has got Yorkshire pretty bang on there, and if she ever needs any pub recommendations then we'll absolutely help her out.
Jacob on the other hand, we know rocks and sheep are sexy but...have you ever met us?
Hopefully he fell in love with our county enough to come back, as we wouldn't mind bumping into him on a hike up the Yorkshire moors.
Popular Leeds gaming bar announces immediate shock closure after going into liquidation
Clementine Hall
Point Blank in Leeds city centre have suddenly closed after going into liquidation.
The popular gaming bar hasn't been open all that long, and was marketed as the country's first simulated shooting range bar.
Despite being a popular attraction since opening last year, the bar has closed immediately, unable to honour any future bookings.
Point Blank confirmed late this Tuesday 3 February that it had sadly entered liquidation, describing the move as “completely unforeseen and beyond our control.”

Up until just a few days ago, the Point Blank branch in Leeds had been promoting events including happy hours, shooting experiences, and even a Superbowl event scheduled for next Sunday 8 February.
A statement on their website reads: "It is with a heavy heart that we announce that Point Blank Shooting has entered liquidation.
"This situation was completely unforeseen and beyond our control. Due to our Manchester landlord entering administration, our lease was lost as part of that process. This had a serious knock-on effect across the wider business, leaving us with no other option.
"After seven incredible years of trading, this is a devastating moment for everyone involved at Point Blank.
"If you currently have a booking with us, we are working closely with the relevant parties to gain clarity and provide answers. We kindly ask for your patience while this process is ongoing.
"Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years — hopefully this is a see you later, not a goodbye."
