If you’re one of those stats-obsessed people too, then yesterday was tailor-made made for you. From Bengaluru to St. George’s in the Caribbean, two thrillers from two different parts of the world gave the fans a lot of reason to cheer. Let’s look at interesting numbers from the two matches. 50+ is Virat Kohli’s average in T20 internationals after his unbeaten 72 at the Chinnaswamy. In doing so, he has become the only player to have a 50-plus average in all the three formats....

A retired colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve, Trofimoff became “the highest-ranking U.S. military officer ever charged with espionage,” according to the Justice Department indictment. Working as a civilian Army employee from 1969 to 1994, Trofimoff helped run a center for interrogating Soviet-bloc refugees in Germany. He had access to many secrets about NATO defenses against the threat of a Soviet invasion. For 25 years, he allegedly photographed top-secret documents and turned them over to his KGB handler, Igor Vladimirovich Susemihl, a priest in the Russian Orthodox Church....

In his State of the Union address, Bush offered proposals that could quickly cut each arsenal by more than half, to roughly 4,700 strategic warheads and bombs for the United States and about 4,400 for the former Soviet Union. That is far below the levels called for by the new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START). But as Yeltsin introduced himself on the world stage, he appeared to go Bush one better, proposing that each side go down to about 2,500 warheads....

Tha Dogg Pound’s highly anticipated debut album “was the nail in the coffin” for In-terscope, says a source at the label. Produced by the rap duo Kurupt and Daz (Snoop Doggy Dogg’s cousin), “Dogg Food” is filled with profanity, mi-sogynistic lyrics, graphic sex and violence. (It’s expected to shoot to No. 1.) Tha Dogg Pound had plenty of time to tone down all the attitude before the CD’s scheduled release in August, but didn’t....

Trying to interest the public in politics is a worthy goal. But does it make for a hot magazine? Advertisers rushed to fill the roughly 300-page first issue, 500,000 copies of which arrive at newsstands in late September. The reason, of course, is John F. Kennedy Jr. When Kennedy and his partner Michael Berman made a pitch to 150,000 potential customers, a healthy 5.7 percent responded when they stressed Kennedy’s connection....

Laimbeer didn’t elaborate further on a timeline and added that he’ll consider adding another player in free agency to fill the void in Wilson’s absence. Free agents can sign for the remainder of the season beginning Aug. 5. Wilson, on the sideline of Sunday’s victory over the Minnesota Lynx in a walking boot and using crutches, appeared in good spirits. Wilson left Friday’s road loss to the Seattle Storm in the third quarter with a sprained left ankle after she collided with one of her teammates....

“The Whisperer” is a sudsy, soap-operatic story about a teenager, Grace, and her beautiful horse, Pilgrim. There’s a tragic accident, an amputation, a doomed love affair and a stampede of wild mustangs. (Redford will play the title character, a trainer who heals the horse; he’ll also direct and produce.) Evans’s book surfaced earlier this month at the Frankfurt Book Fair, in Germany, where his agent, the small British firm A....

The county’s $7,8 billion investment fund held money belonging to 180 cities, school boards and other agencies. The man in charge of investing it, county treasurer Robert Citron, had a stellar reputation as an aggressive investor. In 1993, when a similar state-run investment pool yielded 4.58 percent, Citron garnered a stellar 7.4 percent. But Citron bet heavily on lower interest rates – a move that proved disastrous when the Fed began raising rates in 1994....

Watching the ongoing South Africa- Zimbabwe series gives me immense pain when I find the Number 17 ODI jersey missing. When you announced your sudden retirement on 23rd May 2018, the entire world was shocked on hearing your retirement news. It has been close to five months since your retirement but the agony still remains whenever any new batsman walks out in the middle at number 4 from South Africa....

The Grand Theft Auto 6 leak comes despite Rockstar’s concerted efforts to maintain secrecy. It appears that the alleged leaker still has more information to release, including source code for both GTA 5 and 6, which could cause havoc for the company. While fans may enjoy getting an early peek at the upcoming game, it could result in an even longer wait before it is finally released.

Now the first few days at Discord seem a little overwhelming. There is so much going on that it’s difficult to comprehend. One of the things that must have caught your attention is the ostentatious chat room. Seeing people with all kinds of cool tricks like typing in bold, italics, strikethroughs, underline, and even in color makes you curious about how to do the same. Well, in that case, today is your lucky day....

Last Wednesday a platoon from the U.S. First Battalion, Seventh Infantry, headed out on a night mission deep inside Iraq. Their target: five Iraqis holed up in a gutted water tanker, armed to the teeth. When the Americans pulled up, the Iraqis raised their AK-47s. But they quickly surrendered when a Bradley Fighting Vehicle trained its 25-mm gun on them. It was police work: the Iraqis weren’t Baghdad troops but a gang of bandits who had robbed and raped refugees flooding into the U....

The Juventus star first played for the Azzurri on 29 October 1997, when he came on as a first-half substitute in the first leg of a World Cup qualifier against Russia. An injury to first-choice goalkeeper Gianluca Pagliuca prompted the introduction of a 19-year-old Buffon, then playing his club football at Parma, after half an hour in driving snow, and the young substitute gave a performance beyond his years....

Now, with an office in a looted former hotel along the Euphrates River, Duaffar, 35, and his 15th of Shaban Movement are angling for political power. Duaffar recently won a seat on the U.S.-appointed transitional council, holds the province’s security portfolio and is preparing to run for office whenever Nasiriya holds a popular vote. “Nasiriya was destroyed by the regime,” says Duaffar. “We have an opportunity to set matters right....

Super Mario Odyssey already has a legacy for future titles to live up to. Pauline returned and became a regular Mario character in spin-offs, Cappy became one of the series’ most beloved companions, and the game’s soundtrack is up there with other 3D games like Super Mario 64 and the aforementioned Galaxy. With The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 on the way, a sequel to Mario Odyssey is not an absurd possibility....
