Warren Zaire-Emery: PSG’s new 16-year-old boy wonder?

Warren Zaire-Emery recently became the youngest player to ever start a Champions League knockout game at the age of  16 years and 343 days. The youngster was named in the starting line-up for PSG against Bayern Munich in their recent Round of 16 first leg clash. 

He played 57 minutes before being subbed off, and has attracted a lot of praise so far. So much so that he is expected to be the next big thing in football when he develops further. 

Who is PSG’s Warren Zaire-Emery? 

The youngster has risen through the PSG academy, and has been with them since the age of 8. He is currently under contract with the Parisians, having signed his first professional deal in 2022 after he won the Under-17 European Championship with France. His current deal is set to run out in 2025. 

Apart from being the youngest player to start a Champions League knockout game, Warren Zaire-Emery is also PSG’s youngest-ever Ligue 1 starter (16 years, 4 months, and 29 days) and their youngest-ever goalscorer (16 years, 10 months and 24 days).

Emery has attracted comparisons to Wayne Rooney, who also had a burst at a young age. The PSG number 33 faces stiff competition to break into the front three. But, he could be an important choice for the coming years since Christophe Galtier rates him highly.

ISL Playoffs 2022/23 Qualification scenarios explained for each team

Kerala Blasters and Bengaluru FC have qualified for the 22/23 ISL Playoffs, leaving only two spots open for the rest of the teams to go through. Mumbai City FC have won the league title, while Hyderabad FC are en route to finishing second in the table. 

This leaves ATK Mohun Bagan and FC Goa in contention for the last two spots, alongside Chennaiyin FC and Odisha FC. Here is what the four teams must do to qualify for the ISL Playoffs this year. 

ISL Playoffs 2022/23: What are the different situations for qualification? 

As things stand, ATK Mohun Bagan need at least three more points to make it to the knockout stages of the league. 

Goa are currently in the top six having a game in hand over Odisha, but are currently at the same points. Odisha have a chance to break into the top six if they can claim at least four points from their last two games. Otherwise, Goa must lose their final game or draw. In the latter scenario, a win from one of the last two matches would be enough. 

For Goa to successfully qualify, 

1. ATK Mohun Bagan must lose or draw both games, or 

2. Odisha should draw both games, or lose one, and Goa have to defeat Bengaluru FC in the concluding clash.

The ISL playoffs will begin on 2nd March once the fixtures have been fully decided.

India vs Australia: Dominant India Seeks to Extend Lead Over Struggling Australia in 2nd Test with a Powerful Performance

India vs Australia : After an emphatic victory in the first Test, Rohit Sharma’s Team India will look to carry on their winning momentum as they gear up to face Australia in the second game of the four-match series starting from February 17, 2023, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.

The first test saw a complete domination of India’s bowlers as they bundled out Australia for mere scores of 151 and 124 in the two innings, respectively. Australia, on the other hand, will be looking to make a comeback in the second Test after being thoroughly outplayed in the first.

Lets take a look at the squads, predicted playing XI, key players, and weather forecast for the second Test between India vs Australia.

Squads:

India Test Squad: Rohit Sharma (Captain), KL Rahul (vice-captain), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KS Bharat (wk), Ishan Kishan (wk), R. Ashwin, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohd Shami, Mohd Siraj, Umesh Yadav, Jaydev Unadkat, Suryakumar Yadav.

Australia: David Warner, Marcus Harris, Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Travis Head, Cameron Green, Alex Carey (wk), Pat Cummins (c), Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon, Josh Hazlewood.

Key Players:

India:

  1. Rohit Sharma: The Indian captain has been in excellent form lately, with scores of 161 and 53 in the first Test. He will be looking to continue his impressive run with the bat.
  2. Ravindra Jadeja: The return of Jadeja has provided India with a major boost as he pressured the Australian batters in both innings during the first Test. He will once again be a key player in the second Test.
  3. Virat Kohli: Kohli is yet to score a century in Test cricket for more than three years now. He has had his starts but has failed to convert them into big scores. He will be looking to end this long drought in his home ground.

Australia:

  1. Pat Cummins: The Australian captain will be looking to lead from the front and guide his team to a comeback after the heavy loss in the first Test.
  2. Marnus Labuschagne: Labuschagne was the only batsman who showed some resistance against the Indian bowlers in the first Test, scoring 57 in the second innings.
  3. Mitchell Starc: Starc had a forgettable outing in the first Test, managing just one wicket in the two innings. He will be looking to bounce back and trouble the Indian batters in the second Test.

Weather Forecast:

As per the weather reports, the temperature at the venue is expected to be around 28 degrees Celsius during the day with clear skies. The good news for cricket fans is that there is only a five percent chance of rain during the day, so the second Test between India vs Australia is expected to have no interruptions due to rain.

Match Preview: India vs Australia 2nd Test

India vs Australia are set to face each other in the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar series starting from February 17 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. After a dominating performance in the first Test, Rohit Sharma’s Team India will look to repeat their heroics in the second game of the four-match series against Australia. On the other hand, the Pat Cummins-led side will surely look to bounce back and level the series.

In the first Test, India showcased a brilliant performance with Rohit Sharma leading the way with a sensational ton. However, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul struggled to make an impact, and all eyes will be on them to perform in the second Test. Rahul is under the radar for his spot in the eleven, with Shubman Gill in such good form putting even more pressure on the Indian Test opener.

The return of veteran all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has provided India with a major boost as he pressured the Australian batters in both innings during the first Test. Cheteshwar Pujara is also set to make his 100th Test appearance for India in the second Test and will be keen to mark the occasion with a century.

Australia, on the other hand, will be looking to bounce back after their defeat in the first Test. They have a talented batting line-up, and their captain Pat Cummins has backed opener David Warner, who has been struggling with form, to come good in the second Test. The Australian bowling attack, which includes the likes of Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, and Mitchell Starc, will also be looking to make an impact in the second Test.

With the weather expected to be clear and no interruptions due to rain, cricket fans can expect an exciting match between India and Australia. It will be interesting to see which team comes out on top in the second Test and takes the lead in the Border-Gavaskar series.

Predicted Playing XI:

India: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Jasprit Bumrah, Ishant Sharma, Mohammed Siraj.

Ranji Trophy final 2023: Jaydev Unadkat becomes the First Saurashtra Bowler to take 300 Wickets

Saurashtra and Bengal battled it out in the Ranji Trophy Final 2023. Saurashtra skipper Jaydev Unadkat led his team and achieved a special feat by becoming the first Saurashtra bowler to bag 300 wickets in the Ranji Trophy. The left-arm medium pacer got rid of Abhimanyu Easwaran, providing the first jolt to Bengal, and continued to attack their batting line-up from the first over. He went on to dismiss Bengal skipper Manoj Tiwary in the fifth over, and finally ended Bengal’s innings at a moderate 174, by taking a catch off his own bowling.

On the other hand, Chetan Sakariya supported Unadkat by taking three wickets, leaving Bengal reeling at 17/4 inside five overs. The visitors ended Day 1 on 81/2, with Saurashtra’s Vishvaraj Jadeja (40*) and Arpit Vasavada (31*) at the crease.

Here’s what you need to know about the Ranji Trophy Final 2023:

  1. Jaydev Unadkat’s Achievement:

Jaydev Unadkat achieved the feat of becoming the first-ever Saurashtra bowler to reach 300 wickets in Ranji Trophy history. He is already a record holder for the most wickets by a pace bowler in a single Ranji Trophy season. In the 2019-20 season, he bagged 67 wickets in ten matches.

  1. Saurashtra’s Bowling Line-Up:

Saurashtra’s left-arm pace duo, Jaydev Unadkat and Chetan Sakariya, shared six wickets between them, bundling out Bengal for 174. Their bowlers operated on a probing line that teased the batsmen’s off-stump as they called the shots on Day 1 at Eden Gardens. Chiraj Jani, the third seamer, also chipped in with a wicket.

  1. Bengal’s Poor Performance:

Bengal skipper Manoj Tiwary requested a spicy pitch with pace and bounce to trouble Saurashtra’s batsmen who thrived on “low and slow” surfaces. Bengal lost their top-order early as they struggled against Saurashtra’s bowling line-up. Veteran crisis man Anustup Majumdar, Bengal’s leading run-getter this season, tried to salvage the innings but fell after losing his patience. Shahbaz Ahmed (69) and Abhishek Porel (50) were the only batsmen who stood up to Saurashtra’s bowlers.

  1. Saurashtra’s Batting Line-Up:

Saurashtra’s opening pair, Harvik Desai and Avi Barot, gave their team a solid start, putting up a 57-run partnership. However, Bengal’s Ishan Porel got rid of Barot (24) and Sheldon Jackson (1) in quick succession. The visitors ended Day 1 on 81/2, with Vishvaraj Jadeja (40*) and Arpit Vasavada (31*) at the crease.

  1. Saurashtra’s Previous Win:

Saurashtra had last lifted the trophy during the 2019-20 season, where they had defeated Bengal in the final.

Jaydev Unadkat’s achievement has added another feather to his cap in domestic cricket. He and his team are in the driver’s seat on Day 1 of the Ranji Trophy Final 2023. Bengal needs to put up a better performance in their bowling and batting to challenge Saurashtra in the upcoming days of the match. However, with the experienced players like Manoj Tiwary and Shahbaz Ahmed in their line-up, Bengal can still make a comeback in the match. The match is finely poised, and the next few days will decide which team emerges as the winner of the coveted Ranji Trophy. The fans and supporters of both teams are eagerly waiting to see who lifts the trophy this year!

Yellow.ai strengthens its platform capabilities with Dynamic Conversation Designer to deliver faster time-to-market 

Yellow.ai’s Dynamic Conversation Designer creates human-like conversation flows with effective designs, reducing development time by 50% and delivering increased productivity

Yellow.ai, a leading enterprise-grade Conversational AI platform, today announced the launch of its Dynamic Conversation Designer, revolutionizing the design process of chat and voice conversational workflows with Generative AI. With its user-friendly, no-code interface, enterprises can now create accurate designs in mere minutes, reducing time-to-market by 50%. The seamless integration between design and development workflows streamlines the creation of human-like conversational experiences, saving both time and costs in hiring and training new design talent. 

Intuitive conversation design is fundamental to the success of conversational interfaces, but it is often a complex and time-consuming process. There is also a lack of standardization and best practices for designing natural and effective conversational experiences. Consequently, a multitude of conversational interfaces fails to deliver on user expectations, leading to substandard experiences and business results. 

Yellow.ai’s Dynamic Conversation Designer addresses these challenges and redefines the way businesses create high-quality conversational experiences. Integrated within the company’s platform, it simplifies the design process with unique features like rich message content integration, voice effects control, sharing of designs, and instant previews of final conversations without switching workflows, making real-time collaboration a reality. As a result, it frees up time for developers and conversation designers to focus on more complex tasks, leading to improved productivity and consistency. 

Yellow.ai strengthens its platform capabilities with Dynamic Conversation Designer to deliver faster time-to-market 

Commenting on the launch, Raghu Ravinutala, CEO and Co-founder, Yellow.ai, said, “Conversational flows that lack design thinking can frustrate customers, diminish expected ROI, and potentially damage the brand. Delivering increased productivity, our Dynamic Conversation Designer is directly in line with our vision of empowering businesses to deliver the most impactful interactions at scale and speed. Leveraging it, we were recently able to deliver a full-fledged chatbot implementation in two hours, a significant improvement from the previous requirement of at least two days for design and development in silos.”

With Dynamic Conversation Designer, enterprises can create engaging and personalized conversations with dynamic designs, enabling them to deliver enhanced customer experiences, drive more conversions, and boost sales. It fulfils the need for enterprises to deploy an end-to-end conversational automation platform wherein they don’t need to invest in siloed tools or extensive programs to train new resources. 

Sheikh Abdullah Ali, Executive Director, Solutions ME, said, “The power of conversational design lies in its ability to create human-centered interactions that feel seamless, natural and intuitive in the digital world. Good conversation design should be engaging and prioritize the needs of the user. With accessible and scalable solutions like Yellow.ai’s Dynamic Conversation Designer, we believe that we can foster a deeper connection with customers and drive better business outcomes.” 

“Also, by integrating generative AI with Yellow.ai’s proprietary insights engine and conversation designer, we aim to produce improved business results, including increased deflection rates, improved conversion rates, a highly personalized customer experience, and faster resolution times.” Ravinutala further added. Yellow.ai’s Dynamic Conversation Designer will soon be capable of providing suggestions to designers by sharing the next probable flow and alerting for detected errors, enabled by generative AI and a tighter integration with the Yellow.ai Marketplace that has pre-built industry templates, campaigns, and system integrations. To see how Yellow.ai is shaping its product roadmap to help enterprises realize their true potential, register for Yellow.ai Envision the Future of Generative AI for Enterprises, on February 28, 2023.

Ted Lasso Season 3: Teaser reveals the release date

Ted Lasso Season 3, Teaser reveals the release date. It is the third and most probably the final season of the series Ted Lasso. It is a TV series of Apple+, the series is developed by Sudeikis, Bill Lawrence, Joe Kelly, and Brendan Hunt. The series is all about a midwestern American football coach, the titular Ted Lasso, who somehow found himself as a coach to AFC Richmond, an English football team. Possessing oodles of optimism and an almost superhuman level of emotional intelligence and patience.

ted Ted Lasso Season 3: Teaser reveals the release date

Ted Lasso Season 3: Teaser reveals the release date

Ted Lasso Season 3: Teaser reveals the release date. The release date was revealed via a brief teaser trailer of Ted Lasso Season 3. The teaser trailer does not reveal much about the storyline of Ted Lasso Season 3 but it has shown us the main cast which is crafting their very own “believe” signs. 

Ted Lasso Season 3 was previously attached for a spring debut. It is going to contain 12 episodes and is going to release on 15th March 2023 on Apple+ and it marks a change of sorts for Apple; while the streamer typically releases new shows on Fridays, Ted Lasso is going to release its weekly episodes on Wednesdays instead of Fridays.

As for the story, here’s the official premise:

“The newly-promoted AFC Richmond faces ridicule as media predictions widely peg them as last in the Premier League and Nate (Nick Mohammed), now hailed as the “wonder kid,” has gone to work for Rupert (Anthony Head) at West Ham United. In the wake of Nate’s contentious departure from Richmond, Roy Kent (Goldstein) steps up as assistant coach, alongside Beard (Brendan Hunt).

Meanwhile, while Ted (Jason Sudeikis) deals with pressures at work, he continues to wrestle with his own personal issues back home, Rebecca (Hannah Waddingham) is focused on defeating Rupert and Keeley (Juno Temple) navigates being the boss of her own PR agency. Things seem to be falling apart both on and off the pitch, but Team Lasso is set to give it their best shot anyway.”

The release of the series Ted Lasso is going to be a dreamy start to this busy beginning of the year for Apple TV Plus. The fourth and final season of M. Night Shyamalan’s thriller Servant is currently underway, while the retrofuturistic drama Hello Tomorrow! going to stream this week.

Unforgettable Legacy of Tulsidas Balaram: The Iconic Indian Footballer from the 50s and 60s

Tulsidas Balaram (30 November 1936 – 16 February 2023), also known as Tulsidas Balaraman, was a footballer from India and a true legend of Indian football. He captained the East Bengal team in the 1961-62 season, leaving an indelible mark on the field. He breathed his last in Kolkata, India, on 16th February 2023. With his outstanding skills and exceptional contribution, he is regarded as one of the greatest football strikers in India.

Let’s have a look at Tulsidas Balaram’s achievements and highlights of his football career.

  1. Arjuna Award: In 1962, Balaram received the prestigious Arjuna Award from the Government of India for his incredible contribution to the game.
  2. International Career Goals: Balaram scored 10 goals in his 27 international appearances for the Indian national team. His performances against international teams are no less spectacular. He was one of the prime components of India’s Gold winning team of the 1962 Asian Games. He played every single game and scored goals against Thailand and Japan.
  3. Asian Games: Tulsidas Balaram’s best game for India came against Hong Kong in the 1958 Asian Games. The match went into extra time after the scoreline was 2–2 during normal time. Balaram showed peak performance in extra time, assisting two goals and scoring once as India ran out 5–2 victors.
  4. Clubs and Tournaments: Balaram made his mark playing football for the East Bengal of Kolkata, and captained the team from 1961–62. He was one of the best players of the golden age of Indian football of the 1950s and 1960s. His playing position was as a centre forward or as a left winger. In 1963, Balaram retired from football due to health-related issues.
  • Santosh Trophy: Balaram won the Santosh Trophy three times, with Hyderabad in 1956-57 and with Bengal in 1959-60 and 1961-62.
  • IFA Shield: Balaram won the IFA Shield with East Bengal in 1958, 1961, and 1962.
  • Merdeka Cup: Balaram was the runner-up in the 1959 Merdeka Cup.
  1. Skills and Legacy: Tulsidas Balaram was a complete player and could’ve fitted very well into today’s total football. He could dribble, he could score, and he had a brilliant header. Balaram was probably the best in Asia in his days. He was known for having incredible partnerships with Chuni Goswami and P. K. Banerjee, the “Indian football’s holy trinity.” He was also the heart of his teams, directing every attacking move.

Tulsidas Balaram was a man of pure talent and heart. He brought joy to millions of Indian football fans with his exceptional football skills. He played the game with passion, skill, and dedication, and he left behind a legacy that will live forever. Tulsidas Balaram was a true inspiration and will continue to be an inspiration to generations to come. He will always be remembered as one of the greatest Indian footballers of all time. The Indian football community has lost one of its greats, but his memories will always remain alive. Rest in peace, Tulsidas Balaram!
