The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman, Zaka Ashraf has offered the legendary Australian bowler, Glenn McGrath to work with Pakistan cricket team, during a prestigious gathering at Kirribilli House in Sydney. The event, hosted by Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, celebrated the camaraderie between the Pakistan and Australia cricket teams, along with their managements.

Reports surfaced in the local media indicating Zaka Ashraf’s offer to McGrath, however, the legendary pacer requested time to think about the proposal owing to his existing commitments.

The gathering also witnessed the presence of Pakistan’s High Commissioner in Australia, Zahid Hafeez Chaudhri, along with officials from Cricket Australia, amplifying the significance of the occasion.

In his warm address, the Australian Prime Minister extended a gracious welcome to both teams and lauded Pakistan’s commendable performance, notably highlighting their resilience in the Melbourne Test. He appreciated the Pakistan team for their exceptional conduct throughout the tour and eagerly anticipated an exhilarating match in Sydney.

 

Shan Masood, expressed sincere gratitude to the Australian Prime Minister for the gracious hospitality extended to them during the event.

Time will tell if Pakistan cricket fans will see Glenn McGrath working with Pakistan team or not in the near future, but if he accepts the offer, it would be valueable addition to the Pakistan’ team management.

Glenn McGrath was renowned for his precision, consistency, and unwavering determination during his playing days. McGrath’s incredible record of 563 Test wickets at a miserly average, coupled with his 381 wickets in One-Day Internationals (ODIs), firmly cemented his legacy as an all-time great.

Fast-Charging Your Apple Watch: Here’s What You Need To Know

Source: Apple

In the world of wearable tech, the Apple Watch has been a game-changer, evolving with new functionalities, and one of the most impressive updates is the introduction of fast charging. The ability to swiftly charge up your Apple Watch battery has revolutionized the user experience, but understanding the nuances and essentials for this feature is key.

Which Apple Watch Models Support Fast Charging?

Fast charging is a boon available to several recent Apple Watch models, notably the Series 7, 8, 9, Ultra, and Ultra 2. According to Apple, employing this feature enables a remarkable charge of 0-80% in just about 45 minutes, a substantial leap in speed compared to previous charging rates.

To kickstart your fast-charging journey, you’ll need the Apple USB-C Magnetic Fast Charging Cable. This cable stands out from its predecessors, boasting aluminum construction around the magnetic charger, ensuring efficient energy transfer. While it comes bundled with the Series 7, 8, and Ultra models, it’s also available separately for $29. Remember, when purchasing from third-party vendors, ensure it’s the A2515 model for compatibility.

Understanding the Power Adapter

However, don’t overlook the power adapter crucial for the fast-charging alchemy. With Apple’s environmental efforts in mind, the power brick is no longer included in the Apple Watch box. However, any USB-C power adapter supporting USB Power Delivery of 5W or more is your ticket to accelerated charging. Brands like UGreen offer these adapters for as low as $10 on platforms like Amazon.

Apple provides a list of compatible power adapters, including their own 18W, 20W, 29W, 30W, 61W, 87W, or 96W USB-C Power Adapters, or a third-party equivalent supporting USB-PD of 5W or higher. This flexibility ensures you have options, whether leveraging Apple’s official adapters or trusted third-party alternatives.

Charger Compatibility

A common misconception arises regarding the charging potency required for this rapid juice-up. Contrary to belief, a 5W USB-C power adapter paired with the new cable can indeed grant you the swift 45-minute 80% charge on Apple Watch 7 or 8, debunking the assumption of needing a larger charger.

However, a word of caution: Apple’s MagSafe Duo or Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Dock won’t tap into the fast-charging functionality, regardless of the cable or adapter. But fear not, as integrating the fast charger puck into a third-party dock bypasses this limitation.

Understanding the components and compatible accessories is the key to unlocking the potential of Apple Watch fast charging. Embracing this feature enhances your user experience.

Is Microsoft Planning To Enter The Mobile Industry?

Source: TechInsider

In the landscape of the mobile market, Microsoft’s strategic maneuvers have not gone unnoticed. Under the stewardship of CEO Satya Nadella, the tech giant has embarked on a journey aimed at fortifying its presence and expanding its influence across pivotal domains, namely smartphones and Xbox divisions.

Strategic Acquisitions 

Satya Nadella’s shrewd decision-making has seen Microsoft capitalize on recent acquisitions, most notably the acquisition of Activision Blizzard. This significant move has effectively strengthened Microsoft’s foothold in both the smartphone and gaming sectors, elevating its competitive standing in an arena long dominated by other tech competitors.

Notably, “Candy Crush Saga” emerged as a cash cow for Microsoft, contributing substantially to its mobile revenue, boasting an impressive 5 billion downloads. Furthermore, Microsoft’s strategic investment in OpenAI has paved the way for leveraging artificial intelligence through initiatives like ChatGPT, which rapidly accrued over 100 million users within a mere two months. These strategic forays allow Microsoft to delve into analyzing consumer behavior, leveraging data from in-app purchases and cloud gaming subscriptions, thereby bolstering its market insights.

The Prospect of a Gaming App Store

Nadella’s strategic vision positions Microsoft at the forefront of intensifying competition in the tech realm, particularly in challenging the boundaries of human intelligence. The contemplation of launching their own gaming app store amplifies this vision, reinforcing their support for Epic Games in the legal battle against Apple and Google’s alleged monopolistic practices, where developers are compelled to use proprietary payment systems with exorbitant cuts.

Moreover, recent actions by the European Commission targeting major tech gatekeepers open the door for potential third-party alternatives to prevailing operating systems. Microsoft’s robust brand presence and the prospective establishment of its Xbox store pose a formidable threat to the revenue streams of Apple and Google, potentially disrupting their dominance.

Projected Outcomes

With regulators increasingly scrutinizing mobile industry dominance, Microsoft finds itself in a spotlight it has somewhat eluded for the past quarter-century since its pivotal US antitrust case involvement. Analysts anticipate potential regulatory attention, particularly in light of Microsoft’s ascendancy. Despite skepticism a decade ago, under Nadella’s leadership, Microsoft’s resurgence challenges conventional doubts, signaling an assertive and competitive edge in the mobile market.

Microsoft’s strategic investments, acquisitions, and calculated ventures affirm its resounding presence in the mobile market. As it contemplates pioneering a gaming app store and becomes a potential threat to established giants, the tech titan stands poised for transformative success. Amidst regulatory scrutiny, Microsoft’s market power could potentially show positive shifts, affirming itself into a formidable player under Nadella’s guidance.

Bilal Maqsood Shares How Strings Ended

Bilal Maqsood, in a recent podcast video, reveals what led to the disbandment of the band Strings and why taking such a big decision was made easy by COVID-19.

Bilal Maqsood X Strings 

While discussing the decision to end the band, Bilal shared that it was always a firm decision of both of the singers to stop the band at the peak of their careers. Further adding that COVID made that decision much easier.

‘Faysal and I had always thought that we would never end strings by dragging it and giving it a slow death. For us strings always had a huge meaning. Strings’s respect is way more important and big than me and Faysal.’ 

‘Even though we never knew when we would hit the peak of our career, we had decided that we would end the band at the peak of our career rather than dragging and ruining the name of our band.’ He added.

Did COVID End Strings Band?

Bilal, later, shared how COVID-19 impacted the music industry and their decision to end the band once and for all. According to him, Faysal had suggested taking a break for two years, however, Bilal wanted to terminate the band rather than go on a break. The decision says Bilal was taken in a matter of five seconds.

‘Covid hit and when everything was shut down for almost two years, covid made it easier for us to finalize our decision. One day we were sitting down and we both had hit fifty by that time. Faysal said that why not take a break for two years. I on the other hand suggested that why not just quit the band and hence the decision to end the 33-year partnership was taken just within five seconds.’ He said

He later added that the decision was taken in light of the uncertainty of the situation and how times would’ve changed after a break of two years adding that Faysal fully agreed to the decision without having second thoughts.

Samsung Galaxy S24’s Key AI Features Have Been Leaked!

Image Source: gadgetmatch.com

When we talk about AI, we understand that our intention is not just to talk about Terminator. Yes, that movie showed a bleak future with a sentient AI, but that is not what it is all about. What that movie portrayed was general intelligence and we are talking about artificial intelligence. If we talk about integrating it in tech devices, then smartphones come to our mind at first. AI is being incorporated more and more in smartphones, making key features AI-based.

According to a recent leak, it seems that the Samsung Galaxy S24 AI features have been leaked. Leaks are common when a new release is just around the corner, and it makes people feel more hyped up for the product. However, it can also be considered unethical since the release of information is not by the official brand and thus, their credibility goes down.

The Key AI Features Of Galaxy S24

So, what are these key AI-based features of the smartphone that have been leaked? Samsung Galaxy S24 AI features include live translation and ‘nightography’ zoom. The live translation feature lets the users translate foreign languages to their native ones in real time, bridging the gap between translation and response. Additionally, nightography is becoming more common these days and having a zoom feature in it means capturing the night even more perfectly.

Certain AI capabilities may be exclusive to the premium S24 Plus and S24 Ultra models. It seems that Samsung aims to compete with Google Pixel by emphasizing advanced AI functionalities. Google Pixel is yet another series of smartphones that are boasting AI integration. They are one of the frontrunners and Samsung is running alongside with this release.

Expecting The Phone Soon

Persistent rumors highlight AI as a key selling point, with leaks mentioning features like a multi-voice transcribing audio recorder. The emphasis by the company on the usage of AI marks a significant moment where it has become more common to and available to the user. Transcribing has always been a concern for many people to be able to do a multi-voice transcribe means that Samsung is certainly moving ahead in bounds.

Official confirmation of features expected on January 17, 2024, during the Samsung Galaxy S24 launch. However, we can see that a lot of rumors turn out to be true so we can expect these at the official launch in full capcacity.

4 Places In Karachi Where Bridges Need To Be Built

Karachi and other places to have bridges
Image Source: meconstructionnews.com

A city like Karachi requires a planned-out, strategic infrastructure to accommodate the increasing population. It requires the construction of certain architectures that would ease the flow of traffic within. Bridges can be considered as an engineering marvel, as they are used to open up the flow of traffic in a place or provide easy commute to an inaccessible location. That said, there are places in Karachi where building bridges can be useful, as it would ease off the flow of traffic in the region.

The presence of a bridge in certain regions can even help traffic divert in ways that we did not think could be possible. Additionally, building certain flyovers above existing bridges can ease the traffic density even more. Let us take a look at which places in Karachi would benefit from such construction.

bridges in karachi where they need to be built

1. Dalmia Road to Rashid Minhas Road

Dalmia road sees its fair share of traffic when merging Rashid Minhas road. If there were a bridge that directly connects Dalmia road to Rashid Minhas bridge, it would be of great significance. It might disrupt traffic during construction but it can certainly be beneficial for the area since it is prone to heavy traffic daily.

2. Bridges From I.I Chundrigar Road To Places

I.I Chundrigar road sees quite a lot of traffic on a daily basis and it would help the place to have bridges going to selective areas of Karachi. It can certainly thin out the flow of traffic after dusk in the location, setting people reach their destinations on time.

3. Gulzar-e-Hijri To Maskan

Gulzar-e-Hijri can feel like a hard place to reach if you have to go through Maskan or University road. There is a bridge connecting Maskan to University road but we require one connecting Maskan to Gulzar-e-Hijri. If that were to happen, it would thin out the traffic at Maskan accumulating every day.

4. Bridges Across M.A Jinnah Road

M.A Jinnah Road is one of the busiest roads of Karachi, and it can be quite tedious to cross in a car during rush hours. Cars moving across the road when traffic is flowing can cause quite a traffic jam at times. Thus, the road would benefit from bridges going across the road, connecting Saddar with Numaish directly.

Not only would these locations benefit from a bridge or a flyover, but they would certainly feel more sound in terms of infrastructure.

Top Five Innings Of David Warner Ahead Of Farewell Test

top-five-innings-of-david-warner-before-farewell-test

Australian opening batter David Warner has announced his retirement from ODI cricket ahead of his upcoming farewell Test in Sydney. Warner will feature in his 112th and final Test against Pakistan, starting from January 3rd.

Warner has a celebrated career in Test, scoring 8,695 runs at an average of 44.58, with 26 centuries and 36 half-centuries.

Let’s take a look at five of the best Test innings from David Warner’s career in red-ball cricket, since his debut in 2011.

123* v New Zealand in Hobart

David Warner’s journey into Test cricket saw him achieve a memorable milestone in just his second Test, securing his maiden century during Australia’s close chase against New Zealand in Hobart. While the team fell just shy of victory, Warner’s resolute innings earned him the Player of the Match recognition, affirming his potential at the highest level.

180 v India in Perth

Amid doubts about his Test capabilities, Warner’s fiery innings against India at the WACA ground in Perth silenced critics. Forming a formidable opening partnership with Ed Cowan, Warner’s spectacular knock of 180 showcased his versatility, smashing 20 boundaries and five impressive sixes, dispelling notions of being limited to T20 cricket. Australia ended up amassing 369 on the back of Warner’s brilliant century and India were all out for 171 in their second innings as the hosts clinched an empathic victory.

101 v India in Sydney

David Warner’s emotional century at his home ground, the SCG, stands out as a tribute to his fallen friend Phillip Hughes. Following Hughes’ tragic passing, Warner’s poignant hundred, marked with a heartfelt celebration, remains etched in memory, symbolizing his most cherished century. David Warner kissed the SCG turf, where Hughes had fallen and pointed to the heavens to pay tribute to Hughes during the drawn Test.

113 v Pakistan in Sydney

Displaying his destructive prowess, Warner’s incredible century against Pakistan marked a historic feat. Becoming the fifth batter to achieve a century before lunch on the first day of a Test match, Warner’s blistering innings set the stage for Australia’s comprehensive 220-run victory, showcasing his unparalleled dominance in red-ball cricket.

335* v Pakistan in Adelaide

Among his five centuries against Pakistan, Warner’s monumental 335* at Adelaide epitomized his brilliance. Surpassing Don Bradman’s longstanding record, Warner’s triple-century was a masterclass display, earning him the highest Test score at the iconic venue and solidifying his legacy as a batting maestro.

Iceland Cricket Trolls Hafeez for his ‘better team’ comment

mohammad-hafeez-alleges-amir-imad-treating-t20-world-cup-as-franchise-league-

Iceland Cricket sarcastically trolled Pakistan’s Director of Cricket, Mohammad Hafeez, following his comments blaming umpiring and technology for their team’s defeat in the second Test against Australia.

During the post-match press conference, Hafeez attributed their loss to flaws in umpiring decisions and technology.

“We made mistakes as a team but even umpiring and technology had flaws in the second game. The result would have been different had things went in our favour,” said Mohammad Hafeez.

Reacting sharply to Hafeez’s statement, Iceland Cricket chimed in, sarcastically on X.

“It’s amazing. How can the more talented and superior team have lost 16 matches in a row in Australia? Surely those lucky Aussies will stop being lucky soon,” Iceland Cricket posted.

For the unversed, during the Melbourne Test between Pakistan and Australia, a crucial umpiring decision sparked the debate about the use of technology.

Pakistan needed 98 runs with 5 wickets in hand in the chase of 317 when Mohammad Rizwan was given out by the third umpire. The ball hit the wristband of Rizwan’s glove and Alex Carey took a brilliant catch behind the stumps.

Michael Gough turned down Australia’s appeal and Pat Cummins went for the DRS. The third umpire, Richard Illingworth, found evidence that led to overturning the on-field decision, resulting in Rizwan’s dismissal.

This dismissal opened the floodgates as Pakistan lost five wickets for a mere 18 runs, losing in a 79-run defeat.

Australian skipper Pat Cummins also reacted over Mohammad Hafeez’s comments with a witty smile, saying, “Ahhhh. Cool. They played well. I am glad we got the win.”

“It doesn’t really matter, does it? It is the team who wins at the end,” he added.

Pakistan Defeating India Is An Upset: Gautam Gambhir

pakistan-defeating-india-an-upset-gautam-gambhir-champions-trophy-2025

Former Indian opener Gautam Gambhir recently opened up about the age-old cricketing rivalry between India and Pakistan, asserting that India currently holds a significantly superiority compared to Pakistan.

Gambhir shared his views on an Indian sports channel, highlighting the altered dynamics within the longstanding rivalry between India and Pakistan.

The intense on-field battles between India and Pakistan are renowned in cricket history, yet the absence of bilateral series between the two nations due to political tensions has amplified the anticipation for their matches in ICC events.

The last meeting between these two cricketing giants took place during the Cricket World Cup 2023, where India extended their unblemished streak against Pakistan.

“Pakistan has dominated India a lot of times. Currently, if you see the level of both teams, India is far superior to Pakistan in all three formats. If Pakistan defeats India it’s an upset, if India defeats Pakistan, it’s very much given,” Gambhir said on an Indian sports channel.

Source: Cricinfo

India has a dominant run in the World Cup 2023, where they remained undefeated until the final, where they lost against Australia. In contrast, Pakistan faced disappointment, exiting during the group stages of the tournament.

Gambhir additionally emphasized the evolving cricketing dynamics, mentioning that the rivalry between India and Australia has surged in prominence, surpassing even the historic India-Pakistan cricket rivalry.

“India and Australia, from a cricketing point of view, is a top rivalry. If you ask a cricket fan what is the actual rivalry, they will also say India and Australia,” Gambhir added.

Renowned for his forthright opinions and bold statements, Gambhir is no stranger to sparking conversations on social media. During a recent Q&A session on X (formerly Twitter), a fan queried Gambhir about his propensity for making “controversial statements.” In his characteristic straightforward manner, Gambhir responded, “I say what I feel. You should think who benefits from the controversies!”

The cricketing views of Gautam Gambhir often stir discussions, encapsulating the fervor and intrigue surrounding the sport’s rivalries and perceptions.

5 Reasons The Pakistan Cricket Team Needs To Step Up Its Game

Pak v Aus match in taking place
Image Source: brecorder.com

The Pakistan Cricket team has seen its fair share of glory and wins over the decades, with impressive players making its roster and making a mark on the sport’s history. The team has seen legends such as Wasim Akram, Shoaib Akhtar, Waqar Younus, and many more as the years have progressed. Of course, one cannot forget how Pakistan won the 1992 cricket world cup, something any fan can remind you of.

However, it seems that the team has not been at its best in the previous few matches, and that fact was cemented deep with the last loss that Pakistan faced. It was a match against Australia and Pakistan was defeated by 79 runs. So why is it that the Pakistan cricket team needs to step up their game?

1. The Batting Lineup Needs Improvement

When it comes to playing cricket, both the fielding and the batting have to be kept in perspective. If too much is focused on one side, the other one sees its share of errors. Similarly, not putting too much effort in either side also results in dire consequences. At times, we can see that our players start to fall like dominos, one after another. The lineup needs to be changed to keep the team morale high, to not let the spirit be broken upon the fall of a wicket.

2. Cricket Fielding Practice

One of the most vital aspects of cricket is when a batsman starts hitting heavy shots, but those that can be caught well. However, if players are dropping catches, it also feels like the bowler’s efforts are going to waste. Abdullah Shafique dropped important catches in the last match, which can often be enough to turn the tide in a match.

3. Bench Where Necessary

At times, it is possible that a player will be going through a dry spell or a rough patch. During such a time, it is important to understand that it is not wise to put them in a lineup in every game. If they need time to improve and take a step back, they should be allowed to. Forcing someone to play when their performance needs improvement is only going to cost the team more games. Imam Ul Haq failed to perform in both innings in the last game.

4. Hold The Wicket

It is not just important to score runs and make boundaries. One of the most important parts of cricket is to hold the wicket while making runs. If a person is not holding the wicket, it means they are not getting well into the spirit of the game. Pat Cummins took 10 wickets in the last game, that is quite an achievement. However, it seems like a room for improvement on our part.

5. Cricket Requires Dynamic Strategies

Not only does cricket require strategies to be able to win, it needs dynamic strategies. This means that the strategy should be changing with the team, pitch, weather and time of day. Opposing Bowlers should not be able to predict the weak point of any batsman. Similarly, opposing batsmen should not be able to predict the type of delivery a bowler is going to do.

These are some of the reasons that the Pakistan cricket team needs to step up its game if it intends to win in the coming matches.

Pricing strategies and market reception will play pivotal roles in determining Xiaomi’s success in this fiercely competitive landscape.

Promising an impressive driving range of up to 800 km on a single charge, coupled with advanced features tailored for adverse weather conditions, Xiaomi aims to cater to consumer concerns about both range anxiety and winter driving challenges. The emphasis on fast-charging capabilities in low temperatures and cutting-edge obstacle recognition technology underlines Xiaomi’s commitment to delivering a comprehensive and reliable driving experience.

Ambitions Versus Investor Sentiments

Despite Lei Jun’s audacious ambitions, Xiaomi’s share price didn’t experience the expected surge, indicating market skepticism or perhaps the need for further validation of its automotive endeavors. Nevertheless, Xiaomi’s commitment to invest $10 billion in the automotive sector underscores its determination to disrupt and diversify its business beyond smartphones.

As Xiaomi joins the ranks of tech giants like Huawei and Baidu venturing into the EV realm, its partnership with BAIC Group offers manufacturing capabilities, aiming for an annual production capacity of 200,000 vehicles. Yet, the competition remains fierce, with BYD leading the Chinese EV market, posing a significant challenge alongside Tesla’s formidable presence.

In a rapidly evolving landscape, Xiaomi’s debut in the electric vehicle domain heralds an era of technological convergence. Whether it can carve a distinct niche and emerge as a formidable contender among automotive titans remains a thrilling narrative to watch unfold in the evolving period of the global electric vehicle revolution.
