The new zones and additional levels (51-60) won’t arrive until Shadowlands officially launches, but the first pre-patch lays the groundwork for a brand new era of World of Warcraft with the level squish and a ton of other changes. There’s a lot to keep track of with this major update, so Blizzard put together a survival guide video to highlight some of the biggest things for players to keep track of....
Although he never saw a thing, Brown vividly recalls it from the highlight reels of his memory. Brown is completely blind, and he had just won the 100-meter race for the gold medal at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Summer Paralympics to become the fastest blind man in the world. Upon winning, his guide runner, Jerome Avery, jumped on Brown’s back for a victory lap. The crowd in Rio loved it....
The road to the final has not been easy. France and Croatia have been pushed to the limit and tested severely, and have only managed to come through thanks to some superb individual performances at key moments. Heading into the final, France on paper seem to be the favourites, but if there is anything at all that we have learnt from this World Cup, it is that one should expect the unexpected....
However, this doesn’t mean that World Cup finals aren’t entertaining: they are intense tactical battles where any small mistake can cost your team. The pressure is perhaps most on the managers: Zlatko Dalic and Didier Deschamps can make or break their careers with their tactics in the game. So what are some tactical factors that will decide the game? #1 How Croatia handle Kylian Mbappe Perhaps the most important storyline in the World Cup final will be the performance of Kylian Mbappe....
Joachim Low’s men triumphed on Russian soil in the Confederations Cup earlier this year and start at Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium on June 17 versus a side they ran out 4-1 winners over in the semi-finals of that tournament. Mexico’s tough assignment comes three days on from the hosts kicking off proceedings in a seemingly favourable opener against Saudi Arabia. Sweden, who ensured Italy would miss the finals for the first time since 1958, and South Korea join Germany and Mexico in Group F....
In case you didn’t know… Shikhar Dhawan’s 117 run-knock of 109 balls was crucial to India’s convincing victory against Australia in the team’s second game of the ongoing World Cup. However, the opener suffered an injury to his thumb during the innings and hence, did not take the field in the 2nd innings. However, the report on Dhawan’s injury today suggested that the player has suffered a hairline fracture. The heart of the matter After the news about Shikhar’s injury was out, there were multiple theories going on regarding the opener’s availability for the rest of the World Cup....
Over the last five years or so Bangladesh have beaten the likes of New Zealand, England, Pakistan, India, South Africa and the West Indies. Yes they might not have been consistent enough, but during the World Cup this year we have seen a professional Bangladesh unit who are capable of beating any team on their day. The key to Bangladesh’s success has been the rise of their four most experienced players; Shakib Al Hasan, Musfiqur Rahim, Tamim Iqbal and Mashrafe Mortaza....
Out of the fifteen players who will travel to England for the World Cup, ten of them seem to already be decided (assuming no fitness concerns). These players are as follows: Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, MS Dhoni, Kedar Jadhav, Hardik Pandya, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Based on the composition of India’s previous squads, it can be reasonably inferred that the remaining five slots will consist of three batsmen and two bowlers/bowling all-rounders....
And with 25 games of this World Cup done and dusted, teams like South Africa and Afghanistan might as well be going back home after abysmal performances saw them get knocked out, although the Proteas have a slim mathematical chance of going through. On the other hand, we have also seen some inspiring performances from teams who have performed very well. With the points table shifting after every fixture and every game growing in importance, let’s take a look at the performances of the teams thus far and rate them....
India will now face the West Indies on Thursday at Old Trafford, Manchester. The Caribbean team has managed to win just one match out of the six matches that they have played so far. It’s a do or die match for the West Indies as their chances for qualifying to the semis are diminishing. India, on the other hand, would like to keep the winning momentum and try to finish the league stages as the top team....
Rohit reached his 24th ODI century off 85 balls and ended his stellar knock at 140 off just 113 balls. The right-hander hardly looked under pressure as he eased into his century during the ICC Cricket World Cup league match. The century was Rohit’s second in the ongoing World Cup, as he made 122 in India’s win against South Africa. Rohit and KL Rahul provided India much needed platform against their bitter rivals....
There's no doubt that Johannsson, 23, is his country's most in-form forward. In 35 matches for Dutch Eredivisie club AZ Alkmaar this season, he has scored 22 goals. Employed centrally in a front three for his club, Johannsson has found the back of the net with his left foot, his right and his head, from close range and from distance. Jozy Altidore - the man who, as fate would have it, Johannsson replaced at the head of AZ's attack this season - has led the line for the U....
Sturridge has struggled to nail down a regular spot at Anfield since Jurgen Klopp’s arrival as manager in October 2015, having scored 21 times in 29 games as Brendan Rodgers’ side went close to the title in 2013-14. The 28-year-old penned a deal until the end of the season with the Baggies ahead of the transfer deadline, but - with just five starts to his name in all competitions this season, and none since November - Pardew is prepared to take it slow to get the best out of the striker....
The American clinched her 24th world championship medal and surpassed Vitali Scherbo for the most won all-time by a gymnast (male or female). China’s Liu Tingting and Li Shijia finished with the silver and bronze trailing Biles by sixth tenths. All three medalists from last year were back to fight it out with their routines on the beam in the second to last event final of the competition. China and the United States had the advantage of qualifying two apiece while no one else posed a threat to the respective country’s best athletes....
Originally, teams were slated to play two exhibition games apiece; however, due to positive COVID-19 tests within the German and Swedish squads, their quarantines were extended and those exhibition games nixed. On Saturday, the IIHF released a new exhibition schedule with one game for the eight teams. WORLD JUNIORS: How COVID-19 has impacted the tournament To not show their hand too early to their group-stage opponents, teams will face off against the opposite bracket with some eye-popping matchups on the slate....

One of the largest features that World of Warcraft: Dragonflight will bring is the introduction of a brand-new race. While some assumed that Blizzard would utilize the allied race system it introduced in Battle for Azeroth, Blizzard instead chose to introduce a brand new race-class hybrid known as the Dracthyr. This is the second neutral race to be added to the game and the first that is only allowed to play one class, the Evoker....
