China: Beermaker starts probe after worker urination video goes viral

<p>Pat Cummins-led Australia got off the mark in the ODI World Cup 2023 edition on Monday (Oct 16) with a thumping five-wicket win over Sri Lanka in match 14, in Lucknow. Asked to bowl first, Australia rode on Adam Zampa's four-fer and two wickets apiece from captain Cummins and Mitchell Starc to dismiss the Lankans for a paltry 209 in 43.3 overs before chasing the total in 35.3 overs courtesy of fifties from Mitchell Marsh and Josh Inglis.&nbsp;</p>

<p>During Australia's run-chase, they were in trouble with a poor start. From 24 for no loss, they were soon reduced to 24 for 2 in four overs, with Dilshan Madushanka striking twice in a double-wicket maiden over. However, Warner's dismissal made heads turn.&nbsp;</p>

<p>It was a back-of-a-length delivery that angled in towards leg and hit Warner on the knee roll as he tried to flick it on the onside. Initially, it seemed as if the ball was going down the leg which prompted the veteran to challenge&nbsp;umpire Joel Wilson's decision. Nonetheless, replays showed that the ball was just hitting the leg stump and, thus, Warner had to make the long walk back to the pavilion due to the umpire's call. This wasn't well received by Warner and he hit his pads and was seen swearing at the umpire while going back.</p>

Watch | Hamas shares video showing release of female captive, two children

<p>After losing the toss, Rohit Sharma-led India have been asked to bowl first by Afghanistan in match 9 of CWC 2023 edition on Wednesday (Oct 11). Afghanistan were off to a decent start before they were soon reduced to 63 for 3. Talking about the Afghan openers, Ibrahim Zadran departed for 22 whereas&nbsp;Rahmanullah Gurbaz (21) was looking good before Shardul Thakur held on to a stunning catch&nbsp;to send him packing.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Talking about Gurbaz's dismissal, it was a well-executed short-pitched delivery from birthday boy Hardik Pandya. The batter went for the shot and seemed to have timed it well. Shardul, stationed at deep fine leg, caught the ball, was about to touch the boundary rope and, hence, threw the ball in the air, regained balance and completed the catch without breaking a sweat.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Here is the video of Shardul's effort:&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>For the Afghanistan game, India have gone ahead with an extra pacer in the form of fast-bowling all-rounder Shardul as R Ashwin got dropped from the playing XI.</p>

<p>After losing&nbsp;the toss, captain Rohit Sharma stated, "We were looking to bat second. We saw the amount of dew last evening. Don't think the wicket will change much. Need to bowl well and need to come back and bat better.

After losing the toss, Rohit Sharma-led India have been asked to bowl first by Afghanistan in match 9 of CWC 2023 edition on Wednesday (Oct 11). Afghanistan were off to a decent start before they were soon reduced to 63 for 3.

After losing the toss, Rohit Sharma-led India have been asked to bowl first by Afghanistan in match 9 of CWC 2023 edition on Wednesday (Oct 11). Afghanistan were off to a decent start before they were soon reduced to 63 for 3. Talking about the Afghan openers, Ibrahim Zadran departed for 22 whereas Rahmanullah Gurbaz (21) was looking good before Shardul Thakur held on to a stunning catch to send him packing. Talking about Gurbaz's dismissal, it was a well-executed short-pitched delivery from birthday boy Hardik Pandya. The batter went for the shot and seemed to have timed it well. Shardul, stationed at deep fine leg, caught the ball, was about to touch the boundary rope and, hence, threw the ball in the air, regained balance and completed the catch without breaking a sweat. Here is the video of Shardul's effort: Shardul thakur take amazing catch 😲😲😲😲 #INDvsAFG #shardulthakur #shami #AmitabhBachchan #raj pic.twitter.com/CckkRxnfCq — Govind Vishwakarma (@GovindV41685093) October 11, 2023 × Also read: Ashwin will fight till the last delivery: Tendulkar lauds star player's attitude and approach towards game For the Afghanistan game, India have gone ahead with an extra pacer in the form of fast-bowling all-rounder Shardul as R Ashwin got dropped from the playing XI. After losing the toss, captain Rohit Sharma stated, "We were looking to bat second. We saw the amount of dew last evening. Don't think the wicket will change much. Need to bowl well and need to come back and bat better. We were under pressure (against Australia) to start with, but KL and Kohli batted well, they were magnificent and we take a lot of pride in our performance. It was a good game for us, hopefully we can repeat that and keep the momentum going forward. Ashwin misses out, Shardul Thakur comes in for him."

<p>Pakistan have kicked off their ICC ODI World Cup 2023 campaign on Friday (Oct 6)&nbsp;versus the Netherlands at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad. Being asked to bat first, the Men in Green were off to a poor start as they lost their top three in a jiffy. Fakhar Zaman, who has seen a dip in form of late, Imam-ul-Haq and captain Babar Azam were back in the hut as the 1992 winners were reeling at 38 for 3 as&nbsp;Logan van Beek, Paul van Meekeren and Colin Ackermann chipped in with regular wickets.&nbsp;</p>

CWC '23: Pakistan lose top-order in a jiffy versus Netherlands in Hyderabad face-off - Watch video

<p>Babar Azam-led Pakistan reached India on Thursday (Sep 28) ahead of the CWC 2023 edition, which gets underway on October 05 in Ahmedabad. The players received a warm reception on arrival and the video of the same was shared by the Pakistan Cricket Board's (PCB) official handle on X, formerly Twitter.</p>

<p>On Tuesday (September 05), Novak Djokovic emerged on top of Taylor Fritz in the quarter-finals of the US Open 2023. The Serbian went past the American with a scoreline of 6-1, 6-4, 6-4 and the win marked a significant milestone for the former world number one Djokovic. The win has propelled the 36-year-old to his 47th Grand Slam semi-final, surpassing the record previously held by Swiss maestro Roger Federer.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, there was a moment in the match when Djokovic lost his cool on a spectator. During a live volley with Fritz, a spectator yelled 'Out!' which disrupted the Serbian's concentration, leading him to concede the point. Thus, this was not well received by Djokovic and the veteran made his displeasure known as he requested the fan to be escorted out of the Arthur Ashe Stadium.&nbsp;</p>

<p>India opened their campaign in Asia Cup 2023 versus arch-rivals Pakistan, in Kandy, on September 02 (Saturday). As the rain had the final say and the high-voltage clash ended in no result, Rohit Sharma-led Men in Blue have now moved on to their next game and have locked horns with Nepal for the first time ever in international cricket&nbsp;in their final group stage game on Monday (September 04).&nbsp;</p>

<p>Winning the toss, Rohit &amp; Co. opted to bowl first in another rain-predicted contest in Kandy. While Indian bowlers did produce quite a lot of chances, the fielders failed to complement with back-to-back dropped catches. Virat Kohli, Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer dropped easy chances as Nepal openers were off to a solid start.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Talking about Kohli's dropped catch, the former Indian captain made a mess of a regulation chance at cover point. It was an uppish drive from&nbsp;Aasif Sheikh as Kohli failed to grab the catch. <strong>Here's the video:</strong></p>

<p>Against the backdrop of the violence in Manipur, Chief Justice of India, D Y Chandrachud, leading a Supreme Court bench, expressed strong disapproval of the heinous acts perpetrated against women during the communal and sectarian violence in the northeastern state. He said&nbsp;that such actions could not be justified by comparing them to crimes happening elsewhere in the country.</p>

<p>“We are dealing with something on the unprecedented magnitude of violence against women in communal and sectarian violence. But this cannot be gainsaid that crimes are happening against women and in Bengal also but here the case is different. Tell me what is the suggestion from you in the Manipur case? We cannot justify what happened in Manipur by saying that this happened elsewhere,” the Chief Justice reportedly said.</p>

India Supreme Court demands answers over delayed FIR in shocking Manipur viral video case

<p>A video of beachgoers at La Jolla Cove beach in San Diego, California is going viral on social media. The footage shows wild sea lions leaving the beach waters and charging towards the shore as tourists run to seek a safe spot away from the animals. The sea lions can be seen roaring in low frequency capturing the attention of the beachgoers, some of whom were seen stepping back while others were seen clicking pictures of these aquatic creatures.</p>

<p>Walking on all fours, some of the sea lions could be seen running fast toward&nbsp;the tourists while others play along with others of their kind. The visuals of the whole incident at the beach also captured the sea lions taking dives in the water by making a perfect curve with their big bellies.</p>

<p>Lifeguards who were present at the beach at that time cautioned the people to stay away from the sea lions.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“Everybody, let's please give that large, male sea lion plenty of room,” a San Diego lifeguard can be heard saying over the public address system in the video.&nbsp;“They have bitten people, and they are protected animals," he added.&nbsp;</p>

<p>As the animals charged toward the shore, tourists scattered in all directions and started running away.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The video initially shared by the Instagram user quickly gained traction with many dropping interesting comments on it.&nbsp;</p>

<p>One user commented, "What can we do to close this beach? Glad to see the sea lions taking a stand" while the other said, "People it’s there beach your not to be bothering them. It’s their home!"</p>

WATCH | Beachgoers run in all directions as aggressive sea lions come charging

<p>A video showing a group of youngsters doing sit-ups as punishment has gone viral on social media. Media reports suggest that these trekkers were visiting the famous Dudhsagar waterfalls on the border of the Indian state of Goa and the punishment was meted out to them by officials of Railway Police. Their crime? Getting off the train before the scheduled station and crossing railway tracks on foot, something that is punishable according to the rules of the railways. But the punishment surely doesn't involve sit-ups. The video apparently shows the officials not wanting to inflict heavy punishment on the young travellers but wanting to make them realise that they have done something wrong.</p>

<p>Dudhsagar Falls (literal translation 'A sea of milk') is a favourite tourist spot for someone who doesn't mind a bit of trekking. The waterfalls, together with the lush greenery that surrounds it, make for a scenic location. The waterfalls become especially beautiful during the ongoing Monsoon season.</p>

<p>The visitors to the falls often walk along tracks of the South Western Railway line to reach Dudhsagar after getting off at Collem station in South Goa.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, Goa Police, the Forest Department, along with the Railways have now issued orders banning trekking during monsoon to prevent the likelihood of mishaps.</p>

<p>Just last week, the Goa Police banned people from visiting waterfalls in the state after two deaths at Mainapi waterfall in Sanguem taluka.</p>

<p>The South Western Railway tweeted, urging people not to walk along the tracks.</p>

<p>"We urge you to savour the beauty of Dudhsagar Falls from within your coach. Walking on/along tracks not only endangers your own safety but is also an offence under sections 147, 159 of Railway Act. It can also endanger the safety of trains," it tweeted.</p>

Video | Trekkers to Dudhsagar Falls defied a ban. So officials made them do sit-ups

<p>A video has been doing the rounds where WWE legend The Undertaker saved his wife from a possible shark attack. Thus, the WWE legend has once again proved that he is not the one to mess with in real life. Throughout his memorable WWE career, the 'Deadman' has often dominated the ring and was one of the most intimidating and fierce characters.

<p>The Undertaker came to his wife's rescue who could have been attacked by a shark. Revealing the whole incident, his wife&nbsp;Michelle McCool shared a video on her official Instagram handle and wrote, "I was simply enjoying a book on the beach when this 'vegetation' looked a lot like a shark... so I text hubby @undertaker". In addition, she expressed her gratitude towards her better half with a picture and captioned, "Kinda digging that last picture... A LOT #myprotector".&nbsp;</p>

A video has been doing the rounds where WWE legend The Undertaker saved his wife from a possible shark attack. Thus, the WWE legend has once again proved that he is not the one to mess with in real life. Throughout his memorable WWE career, the 'Deadman' has often dominated the ring and was one of the most intimidating and fierce characters. Recently, he proved that he is a strong character outside the ring as well, by taking on a shark. The Undertaker came to his wife's rescue who could have been attacked by a shark. Revealing the whole incident, his wife Michelle McCool shared a video on her official Instagram handle and wrote, "I was simply enjoying a book on the beach when this 'vegetation' looked a lot like a shark... so I text hubby @undertaker". In addition, she expressed her gratitude towards her better half with a picture and captioned, "Kinda digging that last picture... A LOT #myprotector".

WWE legend The Undertaker saves wife from potential shark attack, video breaks the internet - Watch

<p>Beachgoers on K’gari (Fraser Island) in Queensland have been cautioned to prioritise their safety in the presence of Australia's wild dogs, known as dingoes. Recent incidents of dingo attacks have prompted authorities to issue a warning and provide guidelines on how to stay safe. The Queensland Department of Environment and Science shared videos capturing the alarming encounters with one video showing a dingo approaching a group of sunbathers on the island and biting a French tourist on the rear end on June 4.</p>

<p>Another video shows a dingo chasing a boy and a man along the beach. The same dingo had&nbsp;bitten a 7-year-old boy a few days earlier. These incidents raised concerns about the safety of beachgoers.</p>

<h2><strong>Euthanisation of the aggressive dingo</strong></h2>

<p>Due to the dingo's repeated aggressive behaviour and the perceived risk it posed to people, authorities made the decision to euthanise it on June 10. The dingo's interactions with humans were deemed to be of a "high risk" nature.</p>

<h2><strong>Another terrifying encounter</strong></h2>

<p>Despite the euthanisation, another dingo attack occurred a week later. A 10-year-old boy was grabbed on the shoulder near a campsite and dragged underwater. Thankfully, his 12-year-old sister intervened and saved him from further harm. The boy received treatment for puncture wounds, scratches, and bruises.</p>

<p>The tourist submersible, which went missing while carrying five people to the sunken wreck of Titanic, had disappeared earlier as well, revealed a video shot by CBS last summer. In the video, the vessel appeared to have lost communication with its mothership for almost two and a half hours.</p>

<p>In the TV segment, the submersible, its mother ship, and its crew were featured and details of the vessel named "Titan" were reported. Some "off-the-shelf" components were fitted into the inside of the tourist submersible and it has been designed to be piloted using a video-game controller.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Submersible lost for more than two hours</strong></h2>

<p>Sharing his experience, as a search operation was launched by the United States and Canadian Coast Guards for a missing OceanGate Expeditions vessel, CBS Sunday Morning reporter David Pogue said that he went on a $250,000-a-person trip last year.&nbsp;However, communications issues and bad weather marred his voyage on the cramped submarine.&nbsp;</p>

<p>A previously unseen footage has surfaced, revealing the extent of rule-breaking and mockery of lockdown regulations at a Christmas party held at the Conservative Campaign Headquarters in London, as per The Mirror media outlet. The video captures officials engaged in revelry, joking about their disregard for lockdown rules. Shockingly, among the 24 attendees were two individuals named in former Prime Minister Boris Johnson's controversial resignation honours list.&nbsp;As per local media outlets, the Met Police is 'considering' this new partygate footage.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Disregarding lockdown distancing measures</strong></h2>

<p>In the footage by The Mirror, officials can be seen dancing and joking near a sign that indicated maintaining distancing. The revelry took place on December 14, 2020, at a time when large parts of the UK were under restrictions that prohibited indoor socialising.</p>

<p>The party was organised by the campaign team of Shaun Bailey, who was then a candidate for London Mayor. Bailey has recently received the title of Lord as part of Boris Johnson's resignation honours.</p>

<p>The video shows Ben Mallet, who received an Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the same honours list and served as the campaign director for the Tories' London mayoral election.</p>

<p>The video captured during the event shows Mallet holding a wine glass while the iconic song "Fairytale of New York" plays in the background. In the footage, a man exclaims, "Oh Christ," upon realizing he is being recorded, and someone asks, "Are you filming this?"</p>

<p>Another person responds, "It's for party, erm, party use." Another individual remarks, "As long as we are not streaming that we're, like, bending the rules." The identities of all the Conservatives present at the party and the source of the leaked footage remain unclear. It is unknown who specifically attended the gathering and who made the video public.</p>

<p>Mallet currently manages the campaign of Moz Hossain, a prospective mayoral candidate for next year.</p>

<h2><strong>Mocking the rules&nbsp;</strong></h2>

<p>The footage captures attendees knocking over wine glasses, dancing without regard for social distancing, and openly joking about breaking the rules. The revelations come shortly after a UK parliamentary committee damning report accused Boris Johnson of repeatedly misleading MPs about lockdown-breaching gatherings.</p>
