Pragyan Ojha, a member of the IPL governing council, said that Rishabh Pant has shown great maturity as the leader of the Capitals. Thus far, the team has won four out of the six games they have played and are firmly in contention to qualify for the play-offs. The veteran spinner played for India in the early 2010s bagging 113 Test wickets, along with 89 wickets in the IPL. He opined that Rishabh Pant has the aura and charm necessary to be a captain....

The promo for Riverdale Season 4, Episode 16, titled “The Locked Room,” reveals that Jughead and Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart) will spend much of the episode explaining exactly how their plan unfolded over the last few episodes of The CW show. At the start of the trailer, which first aired after the March 4 episode of Riverdale, we see Betty and Jughead arrive at Stonewall Prep, where a group of his classmates, including Donna Sweett (Sarah Desjardins) and Bret Weston Wallis (Sean Depner), are assembled....

[HTML1] The heyday of peripheral-focused music games has come and gone, but their spirit lives on in Rock Band Blitz, Harmonix’s new game for Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network. You won’t need anything more that a standard controller to play the game, and you won’t have to wait long, either. Rock Band Blitz brings the hits on August 28, 2012, and it’ll only set you back $14.99/1200 MS Points – a killer deal since the game’s 20+ new tracks are also playable in Rock Band 3....

Wenger’s right - Arsenal don’t need Payet The storied Scottish champions were playing in the Champions League eight weeks ago, pitting themselves against the likes of Barcelona and Manchester City, against whom they twice drew. Countless honours lie in the Parkhead side’s trophy room, including the 1967 European Cup, and they have the capability of drawing crowds of over 60,000. Rovers, who play in Coatbridge, a town less than 10 miles from the big-city lights of their opponents, consider it a good gate if they attract over 600 to their tumbledown Cliftonhill ground....

After the party that Reagan threw for the rich in the 1980s, the bill was going to come due. A place like Flint was paying its bill early, but it would come everywhere. But I didn’t set out to be a prophet. I wanted change. Well, I get a lot of mail and calls from teachers-junior high, high school, college. It’s used [to discuss] class distinctions in our society that we don’t normally talk about....

While Rohit Sharma has looked in decent touch, forging good starts consistently with the in-form Gill at the top of the order, he has not been able to convert it into a meaningful score yet. While Suryakumar Yadav is still struggling to find the right tempo in ODIs, Ishan Kishan is settling into a new role in the middle order. Opining that other batters will have to start contributing as well, Jaffer said on ESPNcricinfo:...

Ronaldo netted a brilliant hat-trick as Portugal drew 3-3 with Spain in their World Cup opener last week, including a world-class late free-kick. The goals were evidence of the Real Madrid superstar’s ferocious will to win , with Portugal desperate to repeat their surprise Euro 2016 success in Russia. And his former Manchester United team-mate Evra has given a perfect insight into the perfectionist that Ronaldo has always been, as he bids for glory on the grandest stage....

How Man Utd are failing to create Ben Arfa has revealed that he does not enjoy watching Real Madrid’s four-time Ballon d’Or winner and he fails to be stirred by what the Portuguese offers on the pitch. “Cristiano Ronaldo, he does not give me any emotion,” the former Nice man said. “He is predictable.” Meanwhile, Ben Arfa also took aim at Atletico Madrid coach Simeone and Manchester United boss Mourinho, who have both enjoyed success in domestic competitions with approaches built on defensive organisation....

The former England manager has just finished a coaching stint in Asia which saw him take in spells with CSL teams Shanghai SIPG and Guangzhou R&F, along with second tier side Shenzhen FC. He enjoyed his time away from Europe and feels those being heavily linked with big-money moves would do likewise. Rooney is reported to be edging towards the exits at Old Trafford, after slipping down the pecking order under Jose Mourinho, while Costa has been deemed surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge despite netting 20 goals in a Premier League title-winning campaign....

Redditor @Only_Till8916 shared the post to the subreddit “Am I The Ahole, and he revealed a few months ago he and his daughter went on a “daddy/daughter camping trip.” Camping is a beloved pastime for many people.

Russell (4x4, 4x6) came in to bat in the 16th over with KKR needing 68 off 27 balls chasing 182 for victory just after a well-settled Nitish Rana (68; 47b 8x4 3x6) was removed by Rashid Khan. Rana was sent to open the innings as Sunil Narine faced fitness issues. Russell, a veteran of T20s, took Siddharth Kaul for 19 runs in the 18th over, followed by 21 off Sunrisers stand-in skipper Bhuvneshwar Kumar, to bring the equation down to 13 off the last over....

Jain has asked both Tendulkar and Laxman to send their responses by April 28. It also asked the BCCI to file its response in the matter. In the notice, Jain wrote: “A complaint has been received by the Ethics Officer of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) under Article 39 of the Rules and Regulations of the BCCI, regarding certain acts, allegedly constituting as ‘conflict of interest’ on your part....

It is not the first time that these players are complaining. For a game that has been out for over two years, Red Dead Redemption 2’s online counterpart has barely seen any new content for a substantial length of time now. The Blood Money update released last July was the most-recent proper content addition to Red Dead Online, and the response to that was lukewarm at best. Since then, Rockstar has managed to get by with mostly improved in-game rewards and events rather than a significant update....

On this week’s episode of Big Brother, Taylor had an emotional breakdown after realizing that her close ally and connection Joseph was out of the game. Fans were heartbroken upon seeing their favorite contestant crying. One fan tweeted: The houseguests who are still in the competition are Michael, Brittany, Taylor, Monte, Terrance, Turner, Kyle, and Alyssa. They will now have to play for themselves, since the Leftovers Alliance split after members of the same turned their backs against one another....

Even though most can agree that the FPS genre has improved by leagues in the years since the era of Doom and Rise of the Triad, sometimes one develops the itch to return to those bygone days of running and gunning against hordes of bizarrely designed monsters. Fortunately, developer Croateam has been around since 2001 to provide us all the chaingun-toting, cyclops-exploding fun you can want with the Serious Sam series....

Body shaming is often assumed to encompass the act of shaming an individual over their weight but, in truth, it can take on multiple forms of cruelty, conscious or otherwise, related to things like height, hair color or other physical traits. And while a larger proportion of women are affected, a significant number of men still suffer from low confidence when it comes to their physical appearance. In fact, a University of California study involving over 52,000 heterosexual adults aged 18 to 65 found that as many as 11 percent of the men polled in the research rated their body as unattractive....

The defenseman, who suited up in 308 regular season games with Montreal, Colorado and Toronto, saw his NHL career come to an end on May 13, 2013 – the night the Maple Leafs infamously blew a three-goal lead to the Boston Bruins in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup playoffs before falling 5-4 in overtime. “In all honesty, that game is hard for me because that was my last game in the NHL, which is really sad and hard,” O’Byrne told the Sporting News from Chicago where he’s currently working on his MBA at Northwestern....

Shohei Ohtani has become the latter. According to Joel Sherman, MLB and the MLBPA have agreed to a “Shohei Ohtani Rule” in the new CBA, which will fold in with the universal DH. In essence, the rule will allow Ohtani (and other players who may follow in his footsteps) to finish out games he pitches in the batting order. Effectively, it adds a second designation to him on the depth chart....

Shreyas Iyer led the Delhi Capitals to their first-ever IPL Final the previous season in the United Arab Emirates. Unfortunately, a shoulder injury sidelined him from the first phase of IPL 2021, but Iyer is now ready to make his comeback. He has been spending a lot of time working on his game in the practice sessions. After a session at the ICC Academy ground, DC’s assistant coach Pravin Amre spoke about Shreyas Iyer’s recovery and said:...

Crystal Dynamics’ recent reboot took things even further. The last-generation Tomb Raider reinvention wasn’t just a bold step forward for the series, it was one of the best games of 2013, with fast-paced action and a gripping story that finally lived up to the series’ blockbuster reputation. The game didn’t sell as well as Square Enix would’ve liked, but Crystal Dynamics did its job. Tomb Raider is a household name again....
