As many as 11 children have died from Pneumonia in Landi Kotal
As many as 11 children have died from Pneumonia in Landi Kotal during the last one month, while over 200 patients have landed at a local hospital in the area during the aforementioned period as the disease has spread in the area like a wild fire due to bitterly cold weather following recent snowfall.

However, to make matters worse, there are no facilities for the treatment of Pneumonia patients at the hospital.

Heating arrangements also don’t exist at the hospital owing to 20-hour-long loadshedding.

The children who died from the disease were Ilham, Muhammad Zain, Baseerullah, Hasmia, Irfan, Hamza, Jan Akbar, Ijaz and three others.

India become first team to lose a Test match after five players scored centuries

Image
India became the first cricket team to lose a Test despite five of their batters scoring centuries in the first Test against England at Headingley. A magnificent century from Ben Duckett helped steer England to a sensational five-wicket win in the first game after a thrilling day five on Tuesday. The hosts reached a target of 371, the 10th highest successful run chase in red-ball cricket history, with the loss of five wickets. With the defeat in the first Test, India became the first team to lose a Test match with five individual batters scoring centuries. The visitors’ Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, and Rishabh Pant scored tons in the first innings, while Pant and KL Rahul did it in the second. The previous record for most centuries in a losing Test was held by Australia when four of their batters hit tons against England in Melbourne in 1928. The game saw a plethora of records broken as a total of 1,673 runs were scored by England and India at Headingley, the highest aggrega...

Cristiano Ronaldo has signed a two-year contract extension with Al Nassr, the Saudi Pro League side said on Thursday, which will keep the Portugal forward at the club past his 42nd birthday. Ronaldo, who joined Al Nassr in 2022 after leaving Manchester United to become a free agent, has scored 93 goals in 105 appearances for them in all competitions. “A new chapter begins. Same passion, same dream. Let’s make history together,” Ronaldo said in a post on X. Ronaldo arrived in Al Nassr on a two-and-a-half-year contract soon after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. That made him the highest-paid athlete in the world and he has topped the list for the last three years, according to Forbes. At the age of 40, Ronaldo’s estimated total earnings are around $275 million. Cristiano Ronaldo has shown few signs of slowing down, with the forward leading Portugal to a second UEFA Nations League title this month when they beat neighbours Spain in the final. Ronaldo is also eyeing the 1,000-goal mi...

Australia ahead by 82 runs as Test against West Indies hangs in balance

Image
West Indies' pace attack again exposed the vulnerability of the Australian top-order batting as the tourists stuttered to 92 for four in their second innings at stumps on the second day of the first Test at Kensington Oval on Thursday. Trailing on first innings by just ten runs after the Caribbean side were dismissed at tea for 190 in reply to the Aussies' first innings total of 180, the match is balanced on a knife's edge as Australia lead by 82 runs with six wickets in hand. Another eventful day when ten wickets fell after 14 tumbled on day one also featured contentious television umpiring decisions which left the West Indies feeling aggrieved. Travis Head, so often the counter-attacking star for the men from Down Under in all formats of the game, will carry the battle into the third morning with all-rounder Beau Webster after all four West Indies bowlers used in the second innings so far claimed a wicket each. Wicketless in the first innings, Alzarri Joseph was fir...
