Will the favourites Peru reach their sixth World Cup tournament all-time, or can Australia cause an upset and reach their fifth straight finals? Peru qualified for the playoff by finishing in fifth place in South American qualifying, where the top four earned direct tickets to the World Cup in Qatar (Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Ecuador). Australia made it as the best third-place team from Asia World Cup qualifying, where there were two groups that made up the final round....

Above all, the visitors were playing their maiden day-night Test and needed to adapt quickly to the pink ball. Despite skipper Faf du Plessis’ resolute ton, as well as a brave declaration, South Africa found themselves chasing the match right from the outset. Riding on Usman Khawaja’s stellar century and a collective bowling performance, Australia cruised to a consolation victory. Here are some of the interesting statistics from the enthralling contest....

Sunday’s six-wicket win in Chennai completed the whitewash for Rohit’s side, Shikhar Dhawan (92) and Rishabh Pant (58) leading India to victory off the last ball. India have dominated the Windies tour, winning the Test, ODI and T20 series against Carlos Brathwaite’s side. And their performances in the shortest format are something captain Rohit hopes can help them when they face a three-match T20 series with Australia later this month....

Attorney Earl Gray, who is representing ex-officer Thomas Lane, said much of his client’s defense — and that of the other three officers charged in Floyd’s death — comes down to Floyd having “killed himself.” Gray said several medical experts have informed Lane’s defense team that Floyd having COVID-19 was also a likely contributing factor to his death during the time of his arrest. After telling The Los Angeles Times recently that Floyd died of a drug overdose due to a heart condition, Gray said on CNN Saturday that Officer Derek Chauvin’s knee on Floyd’s neck did not cause his death — a claim disputed by two autopsies that determined Floyd’s death was a homicide....

Huff has long been a vocal Trump supporter and has repeatedly pushed baseless claims the election, and Joe Biden’s victory, was rigged. On Monday, Huff suggested that Trump will be president again in just four months in response to a tweet from conservative comedian Tim Young that asked Twitter users when they thought vice president-elect Kamala Harris would become president. The original tweet sought to mock Biden’s age, suggesting that he won’t be fit to carry out presidential duties....

Audio-Technica ATH-AR3BT Price That puts them at the upper end of what we consider budget headphones – anything under £100 – but still some distance from the upper-end of the on-ear headphone market, making them a reasonably affordable option – especially given that they’re wireless. Audio-Technica ATH-AR3BT Design & Build The Japanese firm has opted for a reasonably minimalist design with the ATH-AR3BTs, which don’t stray too far from its usual offerings....

Augmentin contains two ingredients: amoxicillin and clavulanate. Amoxicillin is a penicillin antibiotic that works by stopping bacterial growth. Clavulanate is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. It protects amoxicillin from being destroyed by bacteria. Augmentin does not treat viral infections, such as the common cold, the flu, or COVID-19. This medication is available as an oral tablet, chewable tablet, oral extended-release tablet, and oral suspension. What Is Augmentin Used For? The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Augmentin to treat the following bacterial infections:...

Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen completed a spirited comeback for Mauricio Pochettino’s men at the Allianz Stadium after Gonzalo Higuain’s brace in the first 10 minutes of the encounter gave the hosts an early lead. Before the interval and with the scoreline at 2-1, Aurier upended a marauding Douglas Costa in the penalty area, which gave the Serie A giants a chance to restore their two-goal lead with their second penalty in the encounter, but Higuain was denied as his shot hit the crossbar....

Taking what you might expect first, there are three different automated fixes, labelled Disk Space, Computer Stability and Computer Speed. Each of these works through a three-step wizard, which runs a scan to show what needs doing, offers you the chance to tailor how it does it (select drives to be worked on, for example) and then perform the fix. On our test machine, a fairly typical legacy specification, but with perhaps less clutter than a heavily used office machine, it took just under a minute to scan 600 GB of hard disk in six partitions....

The premeditated plan to alter the condition of the ball during Saturday’s third day of the third Test against South Africa at Newlands dominated news headlines and captain Steve Smith and his teammates were widely condemned. Smith has admitted he was the mastermind of the premeditated plan hatched during the lunch break, adding that the team’s “leadership group knew about it”. “We now find we have sent a squad of cricketers, pockets stuffed with money, tape and pitch litter, determined to stretch the game’s rules and etiquette until there is nothing left to do but cheat,” wrote Patrick Smith in The Australian....

He began the race in P5, drafting with other Ford cars for a considerable amount of time during the early phase of the Daytona 500. After the first stage of the Daytona 500, Cindric found himself shuffled out of the top 10. In the second stage of the Daytona 500, green flag pitstops were a massive part of positioning. Austin Cindric soon found himself in the center of the action, placed behind Harrison Burton and Brad Keselowski during a massive eight-car crash on the backstretch....

“I knew it was coming. Everybody knew it was coming,” Rivers said via The Orange County Register. “Chris played all 82 last year. It’s just the way it goes, especially a guy like that who’s played as many years, I just knew this year … it’s part of the reason I wanted to come back. I knew I’d have a great opportunity to fill in his shoes when he’s down and not playing....

India Sunday defeated Australia by 137 runs at the third Test to take an unassailable 2-1 lead in the four-Test series. After winning the second Test, Australia had announced a 13-member squad for both the third and fourth Test but now they have added South African-born Labuschagne for the crucial Sydney match where the hosts need a win to level the series. “We’ll get up to Sydney and have a look at the conditions,” skipper Tim Paine said as he confirmed Labuschagne’s inclusion....

Australia crashed to a 169-run defeat in the first Test of a five-match series in Cardiff earlier this month. The second Test begins at Lord’s cricket ground here on Thursday. Taylor said Michael Clarke’s men would do well to draw upon the lessons of his 1997 tour when a much-improved performance at Lord’s in a washed out match was enough to spark the team to a series victory. “They just need to have a good day....

Pumped up by Cheika’s lengthy tirade after a woeful 40 minutes, the Wallabies stunned Argentina with five second-half tries to overcome a 31-7 halftime deficit and beat the Pumas 45-34 Saturday in the final match of the Rugby Championship. Argentina had never scored 31 points against the Wallabies, let alone in one half. An enraged Cheika was shown on television broadcasts screaming and pointing fingers menacingly at several players in the dressing room during halftime....

However, in the intervening period, India have lost two of their best players who were certain to play key roles in the series. Hardik Pandya, India’s only pace-bowling all-rounder, could not recover in time for the series. And India’s most promising young batsman, Prithvi Shaw, suffered an injury in the warm-up game that seems likely to sideline him for at least the first two Tests. In many ways, the absence of these two players has created a vacuum in the Indian side that would be difficult to fill....

ALH is similar to atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH), which causes more cells to develop in the lining of the breast ducts (milk producing glands). This article will review symptoms of atypical lobular hyperplasia, how it is diagnosed, and how it is treated. Symptoms Atypical lobular hyperplasia typically doesn’t cause any notable symptoms, though it may cause breast pain in some cases. Most people are unaware of the condition until they get the results of routine breast imaging....

Kagawa snubs transfer rumours and hopes to regain Dortmund spot The 27-year-old penned a contract extension running until the turn of the decade despite being linked to the likes of Manchester City and Real Madrid, with the latter long-term admirers of the Gabon striker. He has been in prolific form this season and scored the winner against rivals Bayern Munich in Der Klassiker last Saturday, moving to 12 goals in 10 Bundesliga games....
