The series is evenly poised with both sides winning a game each. While Australia, led by a rampant Josh Hazlewood, beat England in the first game, the hosts returned the favour by pulling off a heist last Sunday. The Aussies will want to get over the disappointment as soon as possible and might even turn to Steve Smith, who was surprisingly left out for the second ODI. Although the Aussies have the resources to inflict another loss on Eoin Morgan and co, the English have come up with the goods with unlikely heroes in Sam Billings and Sam Curran popping up with match-defining performances....

The Kiwi star has enjoyed a good run with the bat against England, scoring 743 runs in 11 matches. The New Zealand skipper is currently the top-ranked batsman on the ICC Test rankings. He will look to maintain his form by notching up some big scores to help prepare for the all-important World Test Championship final against India later in the month. That said, England will be relieved to know that Williamson has had some trouble against the quicks, namely James Anderson, who has sent him back to the pavilion six times....

The viral Reddit post highlighting the book is titled, “My grandfather died shortly after being drafted for war in 1936. Here’s his engineering notebook.” The post, which included four images of the notebook, has 13,100 upvotes since it was posted on March 17 in the subreddit “Mildly Interesting.” User @penekotxeneko123 revealed in a comment the war they were referring to was the Spanish Civil War. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, the Spanish Civil War lasted from July 17, 1936, to March 28, 1939, in Spain....

Engineers at Columbia University have taken a step toward making those sci-fi meals a reality by creating a single device that can use a 3D printer to assemble food and lasers to cook it. “Food is something that we all interact with and personalize on a daily basis. It seems only natural to infuse software into our cooking to make meal creation more customizable,” said researcher Jonathan Blutinger. The Columbia “Digital Food” team, led by mechanical engineering Professor Hod Lipson, has been working on 3D-printed foods for nearly 15 years and is now experimenting with multi-ingredient printing....

England beat New Zealand by 34 runs in the third and final one-day international at Trent Bridge on Wednesday. New Zealand, chasing 288 for victory, finished on 243 all out but still took the series 2-1 after five-wicket and 86-run wins at Lord’s and Southampton respectively. Ross Taylor top-scored with 71 for the Black Caps while recalled England off-spinner James Tredwell took three for 51. Earlier, England made 287 for six with Ian Bell top-scoring with 82 and Jos Buttler’s 47 not out taking just 16 balls....

The MI Cape Town pacer got the wicket of Adam Rossington in their clash against Sunrisers Eastern Cape on Wednesday, January 18. After the wicket, Archer pointed to his temple, a celebration made recently prominent by Rashford. The English pacer also posted the same on his Twitter account, quoting his compatriot’s tweet. Archer’s MI Paltan, however, ended up on the losing side by two wickets in the South African T20 league game....

England scraped into the quarter-finals of Euro 2012 after a goal-line refereeing blunder helped them to a 1-0 win over Ukraine which sent the co-hosts crashing out. A 48th-minute header from returning talisman Wayne Rooney was enough to see England finish top of Group D and send them into the quarterfinals in Kiev on Sunday against Italy. However Ukraine — missing injured captain Andrei Shevchenko — were desperately unlucky not to have earned at least a draw after Marko Devic had a clear goal wrongly disallowed on 62 minutes....

England’s stand-in captain Jos Buttler won the toss and decided to field first. Pakistan suffered a blow early on as Imam-ul-Haq had to retire hurt after being hit by a bouncer from Mark Wood. Babar Azam then came to the crease and looked positive right from the word go. Fakhar Zaman also played with positive intent, putting the pressure on the England bowlers. At the end of 10 overs, Pakistan had raced away to 63 for 0....

The 28-year-old was then admitted to the hospital where he will be monitored overnight. Gastroenteritis is a stomach bug that can induce vomiting and diarrhea, and Leach’s condition could be impacted by the fact that he was previously diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, an inflammatory bowel disorder, which he has had to battle with his entire career. England pacer Stuart Broad expressed his dismay at the developments, but remains confident that England’s medical staff are more than equipped to handle the situation....

LONDON (Reuters) - Having combined seamlessly for England, the players of Leicester City and Tottenham Hotspur will resume battle in the Premier League title race this weekend with the two main protagonists facing testing fixtures. Hostilities were put to one side as the likes of Leicester striker Jamie Vardy and Spurs counterpart Harry Kane both impressed as England won in Germany and lost at home to the Netherlands. Yet with the international break over, Kane, one of five Spurs players in the England squad, and Vardy, who played alongside England debutant and club mate Danny Drinkwater, are back in opposing camps....

Starting the day at 114 for 2, Cook and Joe Root put the Indian bowling to the sword, eventually reach both their respective hundreds and the visitors soon began to feel like they never belonged in the contest. Set an improbable 464 runs to win, India found themselves in early trouble at 2 for 3 before a 56-run unbeaten stand between KL Rahul and Ajinkya Rahane calmed the nerves of everybody watching....

The 47-year-old joined the Khartoum Stadium outfit in November 2017 after signing a two-year contract. Within that duration, he won three matches, drew two and lost three in the Sudanese top-flight. And the former Nigeria U17 and U20 coach has revealed that the inability of the club to pay him for two months made both parties part ways ‘amicably’. “After going two months unpaid, I had a meeting with the club director on Tuesday and he explained their financial struggles," Amuneke told BBC Sport....

Let’s remind ourselves of that play, shall we? MORE: Colts’ Ahmad Bradshaw has broken ankle | IYER: NFC South even worse than imagined That’s harsh. Luckily, Sanders wasn’t dead and he was able to tweet about how he was alive the next day. On Tuesday, it got even better when the Broncos wide receiver flipped the whole thing on its head. Heavenly.

The biggest rule change is as follows: “To clarify the distinction between theatrical motion pictures and television movies during the ongoing pandemic, any non-documentary film placed on the [Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences] viewing platform for Oscar consideration will be deemed a theatrical motion picture and thus ineligible for the Emmy competition.” Basically, the Academy is saying that even if a film releases on television, if the studio puts it up for Oscar consideration, it will not be allowed to compete at the Emmys....

Footage reportedly shot in the city of Balakliya, which is around 43 miles southeast of the eastern city of Kharkiv, shows a group of women welcoming the soldiers. The clip posted to Twitter by Ukrainian journalist Nataliya Gumenyuk shows the group emerging from a building to hug soldiers as they arrive. “Ladies greet [Ukrainian] soldiers in liberated Balakliya after 6 months of Russian occupation…I can watch endlessly,” Gumenyuk tweeted. As of Friday afternoon, the video had been viewed more than 750,000 times....

Gulp. It is not an easy thing for a Democrat to contemplate the use of power; postponing it until next week is always better. But, to Bill Clinton’s credit, he did the right thing. It’s even vaguely possible, if the president proceeds steadfastly, that his bizarre Caribbean adventure will not prove cataclysmic. The Haitian army may be disarmed and the police restrained. The junta may resign. Aristide may return (he may even be a reasonable democrat)....

How these conflicts play out could define the shape of the employment landscape not just in the near term but for years to come, experts say, as employers and workers begin negotiating the terms of re-engagement. For now, they are oceans apart: While 83 percent of CEOs want employees to return in person, only 10 percent of employees want to come back full time, according to a study by the Best Practice Institute....

Anyway if you disable numerical sorting, the Windows will switch back to default literal sorting. Both have their advantages and disadvantages but in the end, it all depends on the user to choose which one they want to use. Windows don’t have any inbuilt option to enable or disable numerical sorting and hence you need to use either Group Policy Editor or Registry Editor to change these settings. Anyway, without wasting any time let’s see How to Enable or Disable Numerical Sorting in File Explorer in Windows 10 with the help of the below-listed tutorial....

But Nature is indifferent to human notions of fairness, and a report this year by the Fish and Wildlife Service showed a worrisome drop in the populations of several of the six species of North Atlantic sea turtles, notably loggerheads, which can grow to as much as 400 pounds. The South Florida nesting population, the largest, has declined by 50 percent in the last decade, according to Elizabeth Griffin, a marine biologist with the environmental group Oceana....
