He completed 62 per cent of his passes and threw two interceptions in a 19-16 overtime loss to the Houston Texans on Sunday....

India started the game with a 4-2-3-1 system with Gurpreet Singh Sandhu in between the sticks. Pritam Kotal found himself back in the starting line-up at right-back with Mandar Rao Dessai operating on the other flank. Adil Khan and Rahul Bheke played at the heart of the defense. Brandon Fernandes and Pronay Halder played in defensive midfield and were tasked with converting defence into attacks swiftly. Ashique Kuruniyan and Udanta Singh manned the wings, helping Sahal Abdul Samad in the centre of the park....

Afghanistan has been playing some phenomenal cricket in recent times with a pool of talented players. They outplayed the opposition in all the three departments in the T20I series. Afghanistan’s bowling has been their strength over the years, but in the T20 series, their batting came into the limelight. Afghanistan would be looking to perform with such dominance to prepare themselves for the upcoming ICC World Cup. Ireland, on the other hand, have had a terrible tour so far in India....

Karim Janat proved to be the ‘X-factor’ for Afghanistan in the previous encounter as he scored 26 runs off 18 deliveries batting at number 3 while he destroyed the West Indian batting line-up with a 5-wicket haul in the 2nd innings. Afghanistan will expect the 21-year-old to repeat the same performance once again and complete a historic series win. On the other side, the Caribbean batsmen will try to play better against the opposition bowlers....

My mind flashed back–as it frequently does–to the days when my family and I were living and working in Lusaka, Zambia, where we made a life-changing decision to adopt Cletus. I started working in Zambia in 1994, and then moved there with my family two years later, because my wife, Mindi, and I share a deep love of Africa. We are both doctors, and we wanted to ensure that the poor received basic health services....

But it must do without the goals of Cristiano Ronaldo, the star striker who fueled its title run before leaving for Juventus at the end of last season. Madrid failed to score against Barcelona in two “clasico” matches at its Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in the past week. Barcelona eliminated Madrid from the Copa del Rey semifinals with a 3-0 victory on Wednesday, and three days later left Madrid 12 points adrift in the Spanish league with a 1-0 win....

In his first public appearance since his diagnosis, the three-time Olympic silver medalist said health is his top priority, but he isn’t ready yet to hang up his racket. Lee said doctors gave him a clean bill of health after more than two months of intensive treatment for nose cancer in Taiwan. Already into light fitness training, Lee hopes to return to the court next month. “I love badminton … I cannot say 100 percent that I can comeback, see how my body is,” Lee told a news conference Thursday....

Make no mistake: Obama has the most to gain from a Nevada victory. After a surprise loss to Clinton in New Hampshire, winning another close-fought contest would silence speculation that his first-place finish in Iowa was a fluke–the result, critics have said, of an irreplicable single-state organizing effort and once-in-a-lifetime turnout among mercurial young voters. This week the Silver State hosted the weirdest, nastiest Democratic slugfest yet–with Obama on the receiving end of most of the punches....

“So, in this impeachment hearing today, where we impeach presidents for treason or bribery or other high crimes, where is the impeachable offense in that call?” Ratcliffe said during the hearing. “Are either of you here today to assert there was an impeachable offense in that call? Shout it out! Anyone?!” “While I am aware that the committee has requested my testimony as part of impeachment proceedings, I am not here to take one side or the other or to advocate for any particular outcome,” Taylor replied....

Once a household name, Brendan Fraser went largely out of the spotlight in the past decade or more. The Canadian-American actor has described depression, health issues, and more as reasons for stepping away, although he has always remained somewhat active in film and television even as his projects aren’t necessarily as high profile as they used to be. The Whale is truly his comeback, though, such is the strength of his performance and the film overall....

The South African captain disagreed with Pakistan coach Mickey Arthur’s criticism of the pitches for the first two Tests, both won by South Africa in less than four days. South Africa needed just 48 minutes and 9.5 overs to score the 41 runs needed on Sunday to score a second successive win - and a seventh successive home series victory. Du Plessis said lively surfaces and an attacking mindset, encouraged by Twenty20 cricket, had helped make Test cricket exciting....

Federer returned from injury following a six-month absence to win the Australian Open last year at the age of 35, ending a five-year wait for an 18th grand slam title. The legendary Swiss followed that up by claiming Wimbledon glory for a record eighth time 12 months ago and took his tally of major triumphs to 20 in Melbourne back in January. Federer again opted to skip the clay-court season to prepare himself for Wimbledon and will take some stopping as he goes in search of a 99th tournament triumph at the All England Club....

Elderly residents don’t just face risks from falls and slips on a hard floor, but the majority of their injuries stem from sitting and standing when going to toilet (opens in new tab). This is mainly due to them feeling dizzy or unsteady as they stand or due to muscle weakness in the back. Often these tumbles result in head injuries or broken hips. Age-proofing the bathroom is essential if a senior relative wants to age in place safely....

Automation puts people out of jobs, from ATMs to washing machines to supermarket cashiers. But those have always been pretty menial tasks. Now, the machines are coming for the creative classes. A new “human-assisted AI” music-making service called Soundful promises to replace jingle artists, soundtrack makers, and anyone who creates commissioned music. And music artists are getting pretty excited about it. “I see it very much the same as AI art […] potentially steam-rolling ’low value’ creative output—but I don’t really see this as a bad thing....
