Catch all the live cricket action of Day 1 of the third Test between Pakistan and New Zealand that will be staged in Abu Dhabi.There are fewer than 100 days until Captain Marvel hits theaters, and Disney is already in full advertising blitz mode, debuting a new trailer for the movie tonight.
This marks the second trailer Marvel Studios has released for the movie, which is set to be released only a couple of months before Avengers 4. The first trailer teased Carol Danvers’ (Brie Larson) powers as Captain Marvel, a superhero who returns to Earth after years away. Unlike other films within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Captain Marvel is a prequel of sorts. It’s not an origin story, but it does take place years before the events of Iron Man, Captain America: The First Avenger, The Incredible Hulk, and Thor.
Still, it’s safe to assume that some aspect of Captain...
Senators have been negotiating for over a year to pass a bill that would pave the way for a regulatory framework that would govern autonomous cars. As the end of the year approaches, lawmakers are launching one last push to pass comprehensive legislation.
The AV START Act is sponsored by the Senate Commerce Committee Chairman John Thune (R-SD), but hasn’t moved onto the floor after Democrats like Sens. Diane Feinstein (D-CA) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) voiced concerns about the bill. The opposing lawmakers cited frustrations over safety standards, privacy, and whether consumers should be forced into private arbitration over legal complaints. Many of those concerns have since been addressed, according to an updated bill text and summary...
Samsung’s Wireless Charger Duo normally runs for $119.99, but as part of Amazon’s “12 Days of Deals” promotion, you can purchase one for $49.99, which is over 50 percent off its usual price. While the charger is made in black or white, it appears that the discount is only valid on the black version.
The Wireless Charger Duo is built with Samsung’s phones and wearables in mind, hence the smaller pad for its Gear smartwatches, though you’ll be able to charge any two Qi-enabled devices at the same speed with this charging pad. To name a few compatible phones, this ranges from Samsung’s Galaxy S9, LG G7 ThinQ, iPhone X, iPhone XS, Google Pixel 3, and several more.
Two charging pads might seem like overkill, but essentially, it can act as a...
Felix “PewDiePie” Kjellberg will soon be overthrown by Indian music production T-Series as the biggest channel on YouTube, but the controversial creator is using his current spotlight to give back. In a video posted today, Kjellberg announced that he’s currently raising funds for Child Rights and You, an organization seeking to help children in India.
In the video, Kjellberg explains that despite the good-natured efforts made to keep him in the lead, there’s also been “a part of this that I really, really don’t like.” Namely, “really distasteful, unnecessary comments” in which commenters declare “fuck Indians,” or “fuck you, India.” “This is not what I’m about,” he says, “and I know this isn’t what my fan base is about either.”

Late Sunday night, President Trump seemed to announce a potentially big development in the ongoing trade war with China. The Chinese government, he tweeted after a sit-down dinner with President Xi Jinping at the G20 Summit, “agreed to reduce and remove tariffs on cars coming into China from the US.” China currently applies a 40 percent tax on cars imported from the United States, so a reduction or a complete removal — it’s still not clear which — would be a boon to automakers who make cars here to be sold there.
Whichever it is, a reduction or a removal of the tariff would hugely benefit a smaller company like Tesla, which has had to constantly adjust its prices in China all year as a result of the trade war. But it’s possible that,...
Apple CEO Tim Cook addressed white supremacists and “dangerous conspiracy theorists” today, reiterating that hateful content will not have a home on Apple platforms.
Cook received the first “Courage Against Hate” award from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), and he used his time onstage to talk about the company’s commitment to preventing hate speech from spreading.
“At Apple, we believe technology needs to have a clear point of view. This is no time to get tied up in knots. We only have one message for those who seek to push hate, division, or violence: You have no place on our platforms. You have no home here. From the earliest days of iTunes to Apple Music today we have always prohibited music with a history of white supremacy. Why?...

AT&T will no longer offer prorated credits to those who cancel certain services before the end of their billing period, as spotted by Ars Technica. The change will go into effect on January 14th, 2019, and will apply to DirecTV, U-verse TV, AT&T Phone, AT&T Internet, and Fixed Wireless Internet accounts.
Now, no matter when you cancel, you’ll be charged for the full month and the service will continue until the end of the billing period. AT&T already had this policy in place for its mobile service, but now the company is applying it across the board. “Currently, if you cancel any of these services, we give you prorated credits for the remaining days in your bill period,” AT&T said in a statement. “Starting January 14, 2019, if you...
At a time when it’s still pretty hard to get much 4K content to watch over the air, Japanese public broadcaster NHK began its regular 8K channel service this weekend, becoming the first broadcaster in the world to do so. As you might expect, I don’t have an 8K TV, an 8K receiver, or the correct satellite dish in order to watch at home — almost no-one in Japan does at this point. But NHK has set up theaters and demo stations at a new mall in Tokyo called Shibuya Stream, appropriately enough, and I went along to see the ultra-ultra-HDTV future for myself.
Much of what NHK is broadcasting falls into the typical TV showroom demo footage category — beautifully detailed slow-panning shots of the Louvre, Sagrada Familia, and Yellowstone, that...

Sri Lanka went from being 45 for 2 to be bowled out for a meagre 55 as Walsh bowled a spell of a lifetime conceding just a solitary run in his spell of 4.3 overs which included three maidens, of course.A new report from Bloomberg today reiterates what we’ve been hearing about Apple’s timeline for adopting the next generation of cellular connectivity, 5G, by suggesting the first compatible iPhone won’t come before 2020. Earlier rumors and reports pointed to the 2020 iPhone as the likeliest candidate to add 5G support, even though mobile carriers and Apple’s Android rivals are going to be rolling the new technology out all through 2019.
Citing multiple sources familiar with Apple’s plans, Bloomberg suggests that Intel is the most likely candidate to provide the 5G modem, as has previously been reported. That makes sense in light of Apple’s ongoing dispute with Qualcomm, the leading designer and maker of modem chips, and rivalrous...

Huawei’s Nova 4, the phone that ditches the display notch for a circular “hole punch” cutout, will be released on December 17th, according to a new teaser image posted on Weibo (via MySmartPrice). The handset was first spotted during a livestream for the 18th birthday of Chinese singer Jackson Yee.
Huawei isn’t the only manufacturer working on a display with the new form factor. Alongside a tease for its long-awaited foldable smartphone, Samsung also announced a range of new display concepts, which included an “Infinity-O” display with a very similar pinhole design to the Nova 4. Next year’s Galaxy S10 range is rumored to be among the first Samsung-branded handsets to use the new display, but it seems that Huawei might beat Samsung to...
Google has started rolling out transcriptions for Android’s call screening service (via 9to5Google). The Call Screen feature uses Google Assistant to answer the phone on your behalf to screen calls from unknown numbers.

The Indian batting line-up is the best in the world, but not unplayable if talismanic skipper Virat Kohli is kept in check, feels Australian vice-captain and pacer Josh Hazlewood.
Former West Indies batsman Larry Gomes has identified the lack of exposure on the English county circuit as one of the factors for the team’s poor performances in Test cricket. Windies suffered their fourth straight defeat in Tests on Sunday, after they were thrashed by an innings and 184 runs by Bangladesh in second Test at Dhaka.
Former Zimbabwe captain Tatenda Taibu took many by surprise when he announced that he would be returning to professional cricket despite now being 35 years old.

With the much-anticipated India vs Australia series kicking off on Thursday, here's a quiz to test out how well do you remember Indian players' performances in Tests series Down Under?
West Indies batsman Chris Gayle was awarded A$300,000 ($220,770) in damages by an Australian court on Monday, more than a year after he won a defamation case against Fairfax Media over an alleged incident during the 2015 World Cup.
Yet the turf on Australia's ovals can play a critical role in determining the outcome of the highly-anticipated four-Test series, which begins in Adelaide on Thursday, and is often the subject of fierce debate among players, pundits and fans.
