Sergio Ramos hoping to make it into the Spanish squad for the World Cup 2022

0

Sergio Ramos is one of the greatest defenders of modern times. Along with being a dominant defender, he has more to his game than defending. His leadership skills are unparalleled. He has scored numerous goals for his former club Real Madrid, the most famous being the Champions League 2014 final equalizer at the 92:48 minute against Atletico Madrid.

However, Ramos went through a lot of injuries in the past few years. He didn’t play for Real Madrid in the latter part of the 2020-21 season and left the club for PSG after that season due to some contract renewal disputes. In his first season at PSG, he was also not consistent as he suffered from his injuries. And he hasn’t made it to the Spanish squad since he left the Spanish capital and missed the Euro 2020 as well due to injuries.

Sergio Ramos said: “Everyone knows what it means to defend those colours. I feel good again, I feel prepared, but ultimately it doesn’t depend on me but on Luis Enrique, whom I respect a lot. I still have a lot of excitement to return and play this World Cup. I hope I can be in Qatar.”

“Last year was tough because I had a lot of problems, as well as having to adapt to another club after almost a lifetime at Real Madrid. Throughout my career I have been injured very little. At no time did I think it was the end. They are challenges that life presents to us, and if there is something that gives meaning to my way of being, it is effort, personality and perseverance.”

“I think I have years left at the highest level, I love this sport. When you dedicate so much to it, in the end you reap the rewards.”

Things are changing for good this season as Sergio Ramos has come back stronger this season and made a solid start to PSG’s season. Now, Gerard Pique has also retired from football, so maybe Spanish manager Luis Enrique would like to have an experienced leader like Ramos in his team. Ramos was part of the Spanish World Cup winning squad in 2010, so he knows what it takes to win on the biggest stage of football.

IPL 2023: Ravindra Jadeja to stay with CSK?

Reports suggest that Ravindra Jadeja is going to stay with Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL 2023. It’s said that the former skipper of the franchise MS Dhoni has intervened to make Ravindra Jadeja stay. He made it clear that Ravindra Jadeja cannot be released in the IPL 2023 auction.

He also made clear to the team management that Ravindra Jadeja should be retained anyhow. He believes that Jadeja has had a great influence in the team and no other player can take it away from him. In 2023, CSK will be playing on their home ground and Jadeja is suited well to the conditions.

The management has approached Ravindra Jadeja on Dhoni’s instance.

The salary cap for IPL 2023 has increased by 5 Crores, from 90 Crores to 95 Crores. In the mini-auction, the franchises can bid for the players with the balance amount left in the last mega auction and they will be getting a certain amount after releasing the players.

Ravindra Jadeja joined the franchise in 2012 but his relationship with the team management soured in IPL 2022.

CSK had their worst performance in this season losing six games out of eight under his captaincy. His performance as an all-rounder dipped as well. He could score only 111 runs and scalp three wickets in these games. MS Dhoni remained as the skipper in the mid-way of IPL 2022.

After he was sacked as a skipper, Jadeja was ruled out in the last few games that CSK played due to a rib injury.

From social media, Jadeja deleted all of CSK’s posts, and the video that the franchise posted on their official handle on DHoni’s birthday featured everyone but not him. It sparked the tension going on between them.

Apple freezes hiring for multiple departments to prepare for a Gloomy 2023

0

Apple has taken precautions to ease itself into the upcoming year gradually, cutting costs while also putting a hiring freeze in place. Apple is no stranger to a sluggish economy. Fortunately, it does not indicate that any product delays will occur.

According to a Bloomberg article from earlier, Apple would slow down the rate at which it hires potential employees since it anticipates a rather gloomy economic outlook for 2023. Now, to cut costs, the company is reportedly pausing hiring. However, this decision does not affect teams working on future devices, which was necessary because, otherwise, it might have affected the launch of the rumored AR headset as well as other devices like a full Mac lineup with cutting-edge 3nm SoCs.

The move to halt hiring will have an impact on corporate functions, conventional hardware, and software engineering positions, however, the article states that Apple can still acquire staff under specific circumstances.

Apple stated in the statement below that while it is optimistic about the future, the actions it is making are intentional.        

“We are very confident in Apple’s future and are investing for the long term. We want to be thoughtful and make smart decisions that enable us to continue fueling innovation for the long term.”

Apple just reported $90.15 billion in revenue, which is significant, on its earnings call. However, other facts portray a far clearer picture of a less promising future. For instance, the tech giant’s Mac revenue is rumored to be growing at a slower rate, and Apple was compelled to restrict the manufacturing of the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus due to poor demand, which could result in lower revenue for the upcoming quarter.

The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, which CEO Tim Cook previously stated were tremendously popular to the point where Apple had to take measures to guarantee that demand was matching supply, are thankfully a reliable source of income for the company. It appears that the beginning of 2023 will be challenging because other industry titans, including Amazon, have also stopped hiring.
