R8 vs rs7

Root has become the first England skipper since Bob Willis in 1983 to take a Test fifer and his figures of 5/8 from 6.2 overs reminded many of the spell from former Australia batsman Michael Clarke. Handed the ball by Ricky Ponting in the second innings of the Mumbai Test in 2004, Clarke finished with figures of 6/9 from 6.2 overs. Coming back to the third Test, the end of the Indian innings saw the umpires call for early Tea. If it was Axar Patel and R Ashwin who spun a web over the English batsmen on the opening day, it was the turn of Root and Jack Leach to do the same on Thursday as they picked nine wickets among them. While Root picked a fifer, Leach finished with figures of 4/54 from his 20 overs as Rohit Sharma (66) was the best batsman on display for the hosts. The rest had no answer to Root and Leach on a wicket that was turning square at times on the second afternoon. Interestingly though, the ball that didn't turn caused much damage on the first two days as the batsmen … [Read more...] about India vs England, 3rd Test: Five-wicket man Joe Root, Jack Leach wreck home side

Guptill thundered 97 off 50 balls, including eight sixes and six fours, before being caught off Daniel Sams' bowling to miss out on a third career T20 international century as the Black Caps posted a bumper 219-7. SCOREBOARD: NZ VS AUSTRALIA, 2ND T20 Captain Kane Williamson's 13th T20 half-century was subdued by comparison, hitting three sixes on his way to 53 runs from 35 balls, while James Neesham crashed six maximums to finish unbeaten on 45 from 16 balls. The hosts' 18 sixes at University Oval tied their all-time record in a T20 international and proved a shade too much for Australia to chase down, as Mitchell Santner claimed 4-31 to rip through the middle order. Josh Philippe (45 off 32) had steadied the ship, before Marcus Stoinis and Sams came together at 113-6 and picked up the pace in the last seven overs to give New Zealand a major scare. Stoinis recorded his first T20 half century as Australia closed on an unlikely victory, needing 36 off the final three overs, … [Read more...] about New Zealand vs Australia: Guptill powers up as NZ hold off Aussie fightback to win 2nd T20

Throughout my career , I have constantly pointed out that I have met very few people that are genuinely addicted to playing weekly or bi-weekly Lotto games . When stating this, some people counter my assertion, claiming that they know people who spend far too much money on buying Lotto tickets and that it is a real problem in their life. However, this is a classic instance of confusing "problem gambling" with " gambling addiction ." These two terms are not interchangeable. When I give lectures on gambling addiction , I always point out that "all gambling addicts are problem gamblers, but not all problem gamblers are gambling addicts." Nowhere is this more relevant than in the print and broadcast media. For instance, I have been one of the co-authors on the last two British Gambling Prevalence Surveys (published in 2007 and 2011). In these surveys, we assessed the rate of problem gambling using two different problem gambling screens. Neither of these screens assesses … [Read more...] about Problem Gambling vs. Gambling Addiction

This is the third in a series of posts about the disaster that is America’s gun culture. If you’re interested, here is the first , and here’s the second . Why doesn’t the U.S. have safer gun laws? Politics . But why are U.S. politics this way? History and the Second Amendment are part of the story: “A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Gun advocates emphasize the conclusion, that “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed,” while supporters of greater restrictions point out that this “right” is explicitly limited to “A well-regulated militia,” and not to individuals. Another contributor is the widespread American self-image of independent frontiersmen, ready and willing to defend their homestead against marauders. But why are politicians so reluctant to stanch what is an ongoing national tragedy, especially given that most Americans … [Read more...] about Why Don’t We Have Stronger Gun Laws?

Tesla’s newly redesigned Model S sedan for 2021 could be the perfect road trip companion. Alongside a top cruising speed of 200 miles per hour, you’re also getting the power of Sony’s PlayStation 5 inside your ride to keep you entertained for the entire journey. In its press announcement in late January, Tesla didn’t reveal which processor or GPU will be powering its 2021 Model S , but we are now learning that the rig could be powered by the same AMD graphics architecture found across game consoles and PCs. A leaked schematic posted by Patrick Schur revealed Tesla could be using AMD’s Navi 23 graphics processor inside the new Model S, which would mean that the car would share the same RDNA 2 architecture as some popular gaming systems.

Former English cricketer Michael Vaughan – who is a big star on Twitter made a dramatic U-turn on Thursday after Indian batting collapsed in the first session at Motera. The hosts could muster merely 46 runs as they lost eight wickets. English skipper Joe Root came up with the goods as he picked up five wickets on a pitch that assisted spin. Vaughan – who said England would lose after they were shot out for 112 on the first day – reckoned India would win the Test. Now he feels England are favourites to win after they bowled out India on day two. England now favourites … incredible session !! #INDvENG Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) February 25, 2021 Vaughan’s prediction could come back to haunt him again as India has already picked up two English wickets in the first over of the second innings.

It was an eventful first over as Axar Patel started from where he left off in the first essay … [Read more...] about Michael Vaughan Takes U-Turn, Predicts England Will Win After India’s Dramatic Batting Collapse at Motera

A well organised Atalanta looked set to hold on for a draw in a drab encounter at Gewiss Stadium on Wednesday despite Remo Freuler's red card for a professional foul on Mendy after 17 minutes. Mendy's fine finish late on made it advantage to the injury-hit LaLiga champions ahead of the second leg at Santiago Bernabeu on March 16. 1 2180561 Los Blancos had looked devoid of ideas and could only muster four shots on target, but Mendy stunned the Serie A side in the closing stages. RESULTS | FIXTURES Atalanta suffered a massive blow when midfielder Freuler bundled a marauding Mendy over just outside the penalty area and referee Tobias Stieler whipped out a red card. Casemiro was also ruled out of the second leg when he was cautioned for a foul on Duvan Zapata, who was replaced by Mario Pasalic on the half-hour mark after sustaining a knee injury. Pierluigi Gollini reacted sharply to keep out Casemiro's close-range header after Toni Kroos whipped in an inviting … [Read more...] about Atalanta 0-1 Real Madrid: Mendy gives lacklustre Los Blancos slender lead
