Pakistan's cricket captain, Babar Azam, has lamented the team’s dismal performance against England in the recently concluded four-match T20 series, acknowledging they should have played well ahead of the World Cup in the US. Speaking in the post-match presentation ceremony in London, Babar expressed his thoughts on the importance of playing modern cricket, and the road ahead for Pakistan.

He said they were well aware of the conditions in West Indies, but not in the US, adding that all the players knew about their roles and would have to take responsibility in the World Cu...

Pakistan suffered a humiliating defeat in the final T20 on Friday as England chased the 157-run target in the rain-hit series, dealing a fresh blow to the team’s prospects in the T20 World Cup starting next week. English skipper Jos Butler opted to bowl first after winning the toss under grey clouds which promised plenty of movement for the hosts’ quick bowlers. Mark Wood hit 154 kph (96 mph) in his opening spell while Jofra Archer showed pace as he continues his return to England duty, though Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam propelled Pakistan to 59-0. But Babar (36) fell off the final ball of the powerplay and Rizwan (23) was out in the following over as the visitors slumped to 86-5, with spinner Adil Rashid (2-27) exerting control. Usman Khan (38), in the Pakistan side for the out-of-form Saim Ayub, showed some fight to bolster his World Cup chances as the visitors posted a below-par total of 157. Phil Salt (45) and Buttler (39) broke the back of the chase, smashing 78 from the...

Those same little white flakes that sell millions of dollars of medicated shampoo to human consumers can afflict cats as well. Since a cat has hair all over his body, dandruff is easy to spot. Dandruff is actually dead, dried-out skin cells. It is usually the result of some sort of allergic dermatitis -- a reaction to something that makes the cat's skin dry, itchy or scaly. But don't confuse dandruff -- the result of abnormally dry or itchy skin -- with dander. Dander refers to normal shedding of dead skin cells, combined with proteins in the cat's saliva left on the hair and skin when the cat grooms himself. (Incidentally, dander, and not cat hair, is the cause of allergies to cats in humans.) Obviously, a cat isn't going to be worried about anybody seeing his dandruff, but it's still important to figure out what's causing it and treat the problem. If left untreated, dandruff may be so uncomfortable that the cat scratches his skin raw, running the risk of g...

Pakistan leg-spinner Usama Mir won't be participating in this year's T20 Blast after the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) declined to issue him a No-Objection Certificate (NOC). The 28-year-old had to represent Worcestershire Rapids in the tournament and was expected to be available throughout, having been left out of Pakistan's T20 World Cup squad. According to media report, the PCB rejected his application for an NOC. Mir was one of the players who signed three-year central contracts with the PCB. Under the terms of the contract, all centrally contracted players are allowed to participate in two franchise T20 leagues in addition to the Pakistan Super League (PSL) per season. This meant Mir is ineligible to participate in any further T20 leagues during his current contractual period, which extends from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024. Mir played the Hundred in August 2023 and the Big Bash League in 2023-24. While he hadn't signed his central contract when he played th...

Sugar is considered a tasty and flavourful delicacy which provides an instant source of energy. However, it is important to be mindful of its consumption including how much sugar is actually necessary, according to Health. Benefits of cutting out sugar and carbohydrates have been described by popular diets but not all kinds of sugars are the same. Many foods comprise natural sugars. One example includes fruits containing fructose and another defines dairy products containing lactose. Added sugars are included to foods either during processing or as you prepare them. Adding honey to cereals is an example of this. Americans receive an average of 13% of their calories from added sugar. This turned out to be higher than current recommendations. Adults have been advised to limit added sugars to no more than 10% of their total caloric intake, as per the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. For reference, if one eats 2,000 calories a day, the guidelines tell them to limit their added suga...

Cristiano Ronaldo broke the record for the most goals in a Saudi Pro League season when he struck for the 34th and 35th time in Al Nassr’s final game of the campaign. “I don’t follow the records, the records follow me,” the 39-year-old Portuguese forward tweeted afterwards. The former Real Madrid and Manchester United star struck in first-half stoppage time and again in the 69th minute with a header as Al Nassr defeated Al Ittihad 4-2 at home on Monday. The previous record for most goals in a single season was the 34 scored by the Moroccan Abderrazak Hamdallah in 2018-19.

Some beauty tips are ageless. Whether you're 19 or 90, you should heed the wise advice about always wearing sunscreen, drinking plenty of water, never smoking and regularly exercising if you want to keep your skin's appearance in tip-top condition. However, not every piece of beauty advice is as evergreen. Just as your face and body change as you age, acquiring wrinkles and age spots, so too must your cosmetics regimen.

Former England captain Eoin Morgan has named the strongest squad of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024. The ODI World Cup-winning captain said India have the strongest squad in the mega event, scheduled in the USA and the West Indies. The Men in Blue has failed to win an ICC tournament since their Champions Trophy victory in 2013 but they always go into any event as favourites. “For me, the strongest side, even with injuries throughout the tournament, is India. Their strength in depth is absolutely incredible at the moment. We’re talking about the players who have missed out on the squad of 15 because of the quality they possess. They haven’t won it since that first World Cup back in 2007," Morgan said. He picked India as the favourites to win the competition as he feels if India played to their potential, they could beat any side in the event. India are placed in Group A of the tournament alongside arch-rivals Pakistan, Ireland, Canada and co-hosts USA. Their campaign begins ...

You've seen it on countless TV shows and movies -- the woman sitting in a fluffy robe, face covered with a thick layer of facial cream and cucumber slices on her eyes. She's enjoying a fancy drink while getting a pedicure and complaining about getting older. You might not be there yet, but you're probably at least curious how effective those cucumbers are. Cucumbers have an anti-inflammatory effect that reduces puffiness. The vegetable not only has a high water content, it but it's often stored in the refrigerator and comes out cold. This means that the water hydrates your skin, and the cool temperature decreases the flow of blood to the space around your eyes. Together, additional hydration and reduced blood flow can sooth the skin around your eyes and alleviate swelling. Smoother, more hydrated skin around your eyes means less stretching and fewer lines and wrinkles in the future. Since the skin around your eyes is some of the thinnest tissue on your body, it is ...

Indian tennis star Sania Mirza, who is considered as a role model and source of inspiration by many for her talent and accomplishments, has redefined the role of women in the society. Though the women all over the world have outgrown the societal barriers and done wonders by their work in various fields, society in the South Asian countries still see females in limited roles. The 37-year-old sportswoman, who has seen the epitome of success and fame owing to her skills and brilliance as a professional tennis player, believes that the women are not just about beauty or their knack in the kitchen. Being a mother and a celebrity all at the same time, Sania is of the view that women are much more than what society wants them to be. “Women are not just supposed to look pretty and cook. They are more than that,” she told leading Indian magazine Famina in a recent interview.

The third T20I between England and Pakistan will be played on Tuesday at Sophia Gardens, Cardiff. England is ahead in the four-match series with a 1-0 lead after defeating Pakistan in the second T20I, while the first match in Leeds was washed out due to rain. Pakistan may have ran out of patience with Saim Ayub and he is likely to be replaced by Usman Khan, who will open the innings with his Multan Sultans’ teammate Mohammad Rizwan, with skipper Babar Azam coming in at number three. The middle order comprises powerful hitters like Fakhar Zaman, Azam Khan who will don the wicketkeeping gloves, Iftikhar Ahmed, and all-rounder Imad Wasim, offering the team a solid foundation for scoring runs and accelerating the innings when required. Pakistan are likely to go with a four-man pace attack which will be led by Shaheen Afridi, and supported by Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah and Mohammad Amir. Shadab had conceded 55 runs in his four overs without taking a wicket in first T20I, marking his wor...

You don't have to be a dentist to know that regular tooth-brushing is the cornerstone of good oral hygiene, but what the average person may not know is that the instrument he uses to clean his teeth may also need cleaning. A toothbrush's job is to remove plaque and food particles from the teeth. As a result, it becomes contaminated with bacteria, blood, saliva, and even old toothpaste over time. The American Dental Association recommends that people change their toothbrush every three to four months (even if disinfected), but even this may not be enough to keep a toothbrush from becoming contaminated.And since they aren't required to be sold in a sterile package, a toothbrush can already have bacteria on it right out of the box. While cleaning your teeth with a "dirty" toothbrush might sound both like a waste of time and rather gross, currently there is no public research indicating that brushing with a contaminated toothbrush will lead to recontamination of t...

In a world's first, a bioengineering company announced that it is working on a "head transplant system." A startling video suggests transferring a patient's brain and spinal cord to a donor body via robotics and artificial intelligence (AI). In as little as eight years, the prototype developed by BrainBridge may be prepared to carry out the ground-breaking medical procedure. Given that the brain is "capable of lasting several hundred years provided that the rest of the body remains young," the US startup asserts that patients undergoing the gruesome surgery may even live far longer than the typical lifespan.However, experts today told MailOnline that the idea is a "bad joke" and "stuff of fiction," calling it a "gross oversimplification of how the brain works." Human head transplantation was deemed unethical in 2016 by the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies' Ethico-legal Committee. The committee does, how...

To ease kids' suspicion of vegetables, parents often feed them the adage that carrots will spare them from corrective vision care. But is there any truth to the commonly held belief that carrots are good for your eyes? Well, yes and no. Carrots won't improve your visual acuity if you have less than perfect vision. For example, a diet of carrots won't give a blind person 20/20 vision. But the vitamins found in the vegetable can help promote overall eye health. Carrots contain beta-carotene, a substance that the body converts to vitamin A, an important nutrient for eye health. For centuries, carrots have been connected with health benefits. In the Middle Ages, carrots were believed to cure anything from sexually transmitted diseases to snakebites. Carrots became associated with vision, particularly night vision, during World War II. The British Royal Air Force published a story that said skilled fighter pilot John "Cats' Eyes" Cunningham could thank a steady...

Got milk? It does a body good -- at least that's what we've been told. But when it comes to acne, that may not be the case. Acne affects 98 percent of people between the ages of 16 and 18, but studies show that limiting the intake of milk and other dairy products may help keep breakouts under control -- especially in teenagers. Parents often encourage their children to drink milk -- after all, it's high in calcium, which promotes healthy bone development. However, milk is also high in hormones, and a 1996 study found a link between those hormones and teenage acne. Milk contains hormones because milk-producing cows are almost always pregnant. On top of that, many cows are injected with growth hormones on a regular basis so they can produce larger amounts of milk. Teens are already prone to acne because of changes in their hormones that happen during puberty -- these changes are one of the primary causes of acne. Adding hormone-saturated milk to the mix can make breakout...

Keto diet comprises high fat, low carbohydrate, and moderate protein intake and is regarded potentially good for metabolism. After a 4-month ketogenic regimen and standard treatment, a recent pilot study from Stanford Medicine also reported improved symptoms in patients with severe mental illness. The new research further explores the potential psychological benefits of the diet for the general public based on these findings. Medical News Today spoke with Jasmine Sawhne, MD, a board certified psychiatrist, who was not involved in the study. She explained how a keto diet may help with psychological well-being. She noted: “(Keto) Diet could increase gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels, promoting calmness and relaxation similar to the effects of benzodiazepines — medications used to treat various conditions, including anxiety.” However, she also emphasised: “Future studies could benefit from incorporating biological markers to complement self-reported data, especially regarding ne...

Former Australian skipper Ricky Ponting has turned down the possibility of taking up the job of India coach. In a short discussion with the International Cricket Council (ICC), Ponting apprised that he was approached to see if he was interested in the role, but he said the long-term commitment did not fit his lifestyle at the moment as he has various other things to look after. After India head coach Rahul Dravid has decided to quit the job, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced May 27 as the deadline of application for India’s coach. Ponting is among a number of former players to have been approached for the role. The Aussie legend is currently serving as head coach of the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Delhi Capitals and Major League Cricket (MLC)’s Washington Freedom. He is working with a TV channel in Australia and with Hobart Hurricanes as head of strategy. Talking to the ICC Review about an offer for India coach’s role, he said, “I've see...

Neuroscience and biomedical engineering startup BrainBridge has announced its ambitious goal to develop the world’s first head transplant system. The company, which had been operating in stealth mode, revealed that it is integrating advanced robotics and artificial intelligence to execute complete head and face transplantation procedures, a concept reminiscent of science fiction but now inching closer to reality. BrainBridge’s pioneering technology aims to offer new hope to patients suffering from untreatable conditions such as stage-4 cancer, paralysis, and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. The procedure involves transplanting a patient’s head onto a healthy, brain-dead donor body, with the aim of preserving consciousness, memories, and cognitive abilities. The company plans to employ high-speed robotic systems to prevent brain cell degradation and ensure seamless compatibility between the transplanted head and donor body. Real-time molecular-level imag...

The Netherlands have been forced to make changes in their T20 World Cup squad due to injuries suffered by Fred Klaassen and Daniel Doram. The Dutchmen have added Kyle Klein, who was the lone travelling reserve, along with Saqib Zulfiqar to the squad as their replacements.

USA have defeated Bangladesh by five wickets in the first T20I of the three-match series at the Prairie View in Houston. Both sides were meeting in an international match for the first time and the home side caused one of the biggest upsets. Earlier, Bangladesh were restricted on the back of economical Steven Taylor's bowling. Litton Das, who took 15 balls to get just 14 runs, was trapped for an LBW by Jessy Singh. Captain Najmul Hossain Shanto also fell cheaply for three runs off 11 balls. Even though Soumya Sarkar scored 20 runs off of just 13 balls, he was unable to build on his strong start. Bangladesh was losing 68-4 as star all-rounder Shakib also went cheaply (6). Mahmudullah Riyad and Towhid Hridoy skillfully partnered to assist Bangladesh in making a comeback.

With the T20 World Cup 2024 just around the corner, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is attempting to rope in legendary West Indian cricketer Sir Vivian Richards as the team mentor for the mega event. As per the sources, negotiations are ongoing between the cricket body and Richards as the former aims to secure his services due to his vast experience and knowledge and the potential impact it might bring in light of the fact that the mega event is being held in West Indies and the United States. The PCB's decision is also inspired by Richards' role in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) where he mentors the Quetta Gladiators franchise. However, the hurdle that PCB needs to overcome in this regard is the veteran cricketer's existing media commitments in the upcoming tournament set to commence on June 2. Nevertheless, the board remains committed to securing the West Indies legend's services as it continues to explore solutions to address the scheduling issue. The develo...
