Top 7 most expensive all-rounders in the IPL 2021 Auction

The player auction for the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) took place on Thursday in Chennai, with 292 players going under the hammer.

In terms of numbers, the 2021 IPL auction had some interesting facets. According to an official statement by the IPL, 1114 players had registered with them for the 2021 auction but the final list saw only 292 cricketers.

Officially, each of the eight teams was allowed to spend around $12 million in salaries for the 10-week tournament but because many have a high number of players that have been retained, the cash available for the auction differed. While the Punjab Kings had the most amount left in their purse (Rs 53.2 crore), Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Capitals had the least salary cap of Rs 10.75 crore.

7. Shakib Al Hasan- ₹3.2 crore (Kolkata Knight Riders)

Shakib, whose base price was Rs 2 crore, and who is back after serving a two-year ban, was bought by KKR for Rs 3.20 crore after Punjab Kings lost interest in the all-rounder. “I am very excited to be part of Kolkata again,” said Shakib in a video message shared by the team. Speaking in Bengali, Shakib said, “I will do my best to get the results of 2012 and 2014 when we were champions.”

6. Moises Henriques- ₹4.4 crore (Punjab Kings)

Henriques was bought by Punjab Kings for Rs. 4.20 Crore this IPL auction. He caused a great bidding war between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Punjab Kings who both looked determined to sign the Australian all-rounder as he had a great BBL campaign. Previously, Henriques has been a part of various franchises including the Delhi Daredevils, SunRisers Hyderabad, Mumbai Indians, and Royal Challengers Bangalore.

5. Moeen Ali- ₹7 crore (Chennai Super Kings)

Moeen Ali was signed by the Chennai Super Kings for Rs 7 crore in the IPL 2021 Auction. The allrounder was released by his previous IPL team RCB. In the second Test against India, Ali hit five sixes and three fours in his 18-ball cameo. It included three consecutive sixes off debutant Axar Patel. “Absolutely buzzing to play for CSK,” Ali said. “Massive fan base, can’t wait to meet for them. Can’t wait to play under MS Dhoni. My teammate Sam Curran is there too. This made my day, made my year.”

4. Jhye Richardson- ₹14 crore (Punjab Kings)

With a base price of Rs 1.5 crore, Punjab Kings bought the Australia fast-bowler Jhye Richardson, for a whopping Rs 14 crore. The 24-year-old pacer has played for Perth Scorchers but it will be his first outing in the IPL. Richardson will rub shoulders with the likes of Mohammed Shami and Chris Jordan in his new team. His arrival will strengthen the pace department of Punjab Kings and can help them in the death overs, an area where they leaked a lot of runs last season.

3. Glenn Maxwell-
₹14.25 crore (Royal Challengers Bangalore)

Maxwell’s reputation got him a pay raise as RCB won a protracted bidding war against Chennai Super Kings to sign the great batsman for Rs 14.25 crore. The signing amount was nearly Rs 4 crores more than what the Australian earned (Rs 10.75 cr) from Punjab Kings last season. Maxwell had a disappointing season in IPL 2020 where he managed merely 108 runs from 13 matches, but has an impressive overall record in the IPL of 1505 runs from 83 games at a strike rate of 154.67.

2. Kyle Jamieson- ₹15 crore (Royal Challengers Bangalore)

RCB pipped the Punjab Kings with a winning bid of Rs 15 crore, the second-highest signing amount of the day. Jamieson had a breakthrough series against India in early 2020 and continued to make progress. He was offered a T20I debut in the series against West Indies late last year. In 38 T20s, Jamieson has 54 wickets at an economy

of 7.98. Initially, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals also showed their interest to purchase Jamieson, but RCB finally snagged the player.

1. Chris Morris- ₹16.25 crore (Rajasthan Royals)

Chris Morris became the most expensive signing in IPL history as the Rajasthan Royals dished out Rs 16.25 crores for the South African all-rounder. The signing amount crossed the INR 16 crore that Delhi Daredevils paid for Yuvraj Singh in 2015 – the previous record for a player signed at the auction. The 33-year-old has previously been a part of the Rajasthan Royals, in the 2015 season when he scored 311 runs and took 13 wickets from 11 games. Totally, he has played 70 IPL games and scored 551 runs at a strike-rate of 157.88 and taken 80 wickets at an economy of 7.81.

OnePlus 9 Pro 5G to come with LTPO display and 120Hz refresh rate

OnePlus is soon going to launch one of its smartphones next month which can quickly become the first choice of a lot of customers. The smartphone we are talking about is OnePlus 9 Pro. This 5G smartphone will be powered by Qualcomm’s latest mobile processor, Snapdragon 888. It is also expected that the device will have a RAM of 12 GB. The handset will reportedly run on Android 11 straightaway. 

But according to the new leak, we might see a huge upgrade in terms of display. A popular tipster reported that OnePlus 9 Pro will feature an LTPO (low-temperature polycrystalline oxide) OLED display along with a refresh rate of 120 Hz. This is a huge development for the smartphone company. They brought a high refresh of 90 Hz in 2019 with the arrival of OnePlus 7 Pro. 

They upgraded that smartphone in 2020 with a 120 Hz refresh rate. This was featured in OnePlus 8 Pro. With the expected arrival of OnePlus 9 Pro, the market anticipates that there will be another big upgrade in the display and this upgrade could be the presence of the LTPO screen. We have already seen the same display in some premium smartphones like Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra and Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.

Now the refresh rate of the screen will be adjusted automatically. The device will check the level of refresh rate required based on the content that’s being shown. For example, an application or a game which requires a high refresh rate of 120 Hz will be offered that but if the content on the screen does not require higher refresh rate, it will be decreased to as low as 10 Hz.

OnePlus 9 Pro is expected to house a strong 4,500mAh battery cell. This will be paired with 45W fast wireless charging and 65W wired charging.

Anthem 2.0 fanbase gains enough power from the other game communities for the #IBelieveinAnthem campaign

Anthem 2.0 fanbase gains enough power from the other game communities for the #IBelieveinAnthem campaign

It is taking some extra time to predict EA to decide the future of Anthem 2.0. Bloomberg had reported previously that those deliberations were taking place last week, with having the options being either to shut it down or triple down on making the reboot work after one and a half years in “incubation.”

It seems that the priority area of BioWare is Dragon Age and Mass Effect, and even tripling the current 30 person Anthem team to 90 doesn’t really look like enough people to effectively produce something transformative.

Still, some Anthem fans hold out hope, and while the game has a small player base, they hope that EA will give BioWare’s vision for Anthem last time, rallying with the #IBelieveinAnthem hashtag.

The Anthem reboot would offer a fundamental redesign of the loot and introduce full-skill trees. It would make a few new areas and enemies, including some pirate clan. It’s not clear that it would be a large patch or true expansion.

To get the players to try it, it would definitely have to be free, and this is not known how much time it would take to turn these concepts into a playable reboot of the game.

It’s very touching to see the subreddit with all the images and messages of support from the other fan communities. According to Jason Schreier, EA still has not decided on Anthem’s fate, and he knows that the team working on Anthem has now enjoyed the #IBelieveinAnthem campaign, which has pushed their spirits upwards.

There are many rumors that have started spreading online on the demand for more Crime Scene documentaries on Netflix in the coming future.

The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel: Crime Scene

The hotel is located at Los Angles Skid Row. This hotel is well known for the tenant’s attraction from all walks of life. As the tourists who have visited from the outside of the town have demanded cheap rates so what the people do who are not as lucky has decided to stay for a place. From the year the 1930s there are almost sixteen death incidents have happened in this hotel. The most dangerous and famous is the death of Elisa Lam.

Elisa was a Canadian tourist of the age of 21 years old traveling on her own for the first time. After not getting the calls from Elisa, her family members were raised the alarm. Then a search has happened throughout the entire hotel and also the surrounding area was launched, but there is no clue about Elisa, then the only proof is the CCTV footage clip of entering and leaving from an elevator.

The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel: Assumption of Second Season

Though Netflix has not made any kind of official announcement about the second season of Crime Scene. However, it is very normal because the show has dropped these weeks for Netflix to announce formally a renewal.

Before coming of the series from several sources it has labeled that the show is an anthology series. If this information is true then there has a certain expectation to see more than one season with different crime scenes.

The director Joe Berlinger has said that the whole point of the series had to tell the Elisa Lam story, but they have an ongoing series of which this was the first season. They were looking at a place and analyzing what contributes to crime in this area and what contributes to crime perception.

The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel: About the Future Seasons

Season one of Crime Scene is very self-aware that has to address the fascination of cult-like society directly with true crime. It is expected that the other seasons will continue this theme and maybe focus on the cases that are favorable to the true-crime community. This series has deeply explored the crime in Los Angeles. We have expected that Netflix will delve a little further into the past or even explore the case from the further afield.

Nvidia lineup GPUs have a lot of water-cooled variants which has been missing from AMD’s custom cards, but the latest teaser from Sapphire indicates that it might not be the case anymore. The company teased a new AIO-cooled Radeon RX 6900 XT. More specifically, a TOXIC variant of the 6900 XT.

The teaser provides a look at the single fan in the GPU covered by some grills and the rest is a glossy shroud. With a portion of the GPU covered under a shroud, the Sapphire Radeon RX 6900 XT Toxic graphics card will ship with a dual-slot design. It is also suggested that the card will be cooled by a 360mm AIO Liquid cooler.

According to sources, the power will be supplied through dual 8-pin and single 6-pin power connectors. So it is concluded that the power is: 75W (PCIe) + 150W (PEG 8pin) + 150W (PEG 8pin) + 75W (PEG 6pin) = 450W which is 150W above the reference Radeon RX 6900 XT.

The information gathered in this is article is based on the teaser and some sources and should be taken with a pinch of salt. As always more information will be provided once the manufacturer decides to reveal some more data, but for the time being, that’s all folks.

Android 12 developers preview released

Google will be releasing the developer preview of its next Android version, the Android 12 for pixel devices. as the tradition has been, the developer preview will be laced with a lot of developer-facing changes. But not everything will be the same as the developer’s preview. As we already know, Google has a tendency of holding back many of the UI changes, and that it will at least not be released for a minimum of two months since the release of the developer’s preview.

From what we know, the developer preview includes some changes to the UI for notifications. The developer’s preview is available for Pixel 3 and newer phones but needs to be manually installed by flashing your device. But the update is It’s likely nowhere near ready for day-to-day use, but Google is promising that it will continue its beta program for regular users later this year.

According to sources, the new version will have a new transcoding layer that will automatically make the HEVC video format work in apps that don’t natively support them. The new version will also support spatial audio, support MPEG-H, and be optimized for up to 24 channels of audio (up from eight before).

Google also will be adding support for the AV1 Image File Format. The format is an offshoot of the AV1 video format that major tech companies proposed some years back and both Netflix and Google have partially adopted. But, Google says that it does not intend to make AVIF the default image format for the camera app.

The developers at Google said that the notification design has been changed to make them more modern, easier to use, and more functional. In the developer preview, you’ll notice changes from the drawer and controls to the templates themselves. The transitions and animations across the system have been optimized to become more smooth and functional.

Google will also be changing how full-screen apps work. With Android 12, Google says that it is “changing the default to allow users to navigate their phone with one swipe.”

Arjun Tendulkar bought by Mumbai Indians at his base price of Rs 20 Lakh

Arjun Tendulkar, son of legendary Sachin Tendulkar, and a left-handed batsman and a left-arm fast bowler, was bought by Mumbai Indians at the mini IPL 2021 auction of his base price, Rs. 20 lakh.

Arjun’s name was the last in the auction, and it was only Mumbai Indians who bid for the 21-year-old and was eventually bought by them in the team, where his father once had played for. 

Arjun has bowled in India nets quite a few times and has also played for India U-19, and has made his debut for the senior Mumbai T20 team in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy recently, at the right time just before the auction, where he scored 77 runs off just 26 balls in addition with picking up three wickets to help his side win the Police Shield Invitation Tournament in Mumbai. Arjun played two T20s  for Mumbai this season where he picked up two wickets with his best of 1 for 33.

Another reason for picking up Arjun by the Mumbai is he comes with a quality that IPL teams usually look after, the wide variation that left-arm pacers bring.

However, the experience that Arjun gained from bowling at the nets from the Indian players should provide him with a good pace in a tournament that is very likely to have happened anything he has played in his career so far, but for that, he first has to make it to the Mumbai XI first and to do so he has to compete with some veterans of T20 cricket.

Asus ROG Phone 5 is now officially confirmed, expected to launch in March in India

Asus has been teasing the arrival of a new gaming smartphone for the past few weeks and now finally the company has revealed the moniker of the upcoming Asus ROG Phone 5.

The company has also explained its partnership with Tencent Games which is continuing for the past consecutive three years starting from the partnership with Asus ROG Phone 2 in 2019. This post is made by the company in their official Weibo account.

Asus ROG gaming has not confirmed the launch of the ROG Phone 5 yet, but it is expected to launch in the month of March as in case of launch in February the company would have already revealed the date. So, let’s wait for any official word from the company.

We can expect two variants of the Asus ROG Phone 5 with model codes-  ASUS_I005DA and ASUS_I005DB. Among these, the I005DA seems to have a Dot-Matrix LED like the ones on ROG Zephyrus G14 Laptops, whereas, it seems missing in the other model.

According to Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings), the Asus ROG Phone 5 is launching soon and it will also debut in India in March. As much as we know there will be some delay between the China launch and the India launch. So, it is possible that the phone might be launched in India a few days after the China launch.

It is very likely we will not see the Tencent Gaming partnership on the Indian model of the ROG Phone 5. As we all know that PUBG was banned in India as it has a direct partnership with Tencent Gaming (a Chinese company), so, in this case also the company will make sure that Tencent is not involved with the phone when it will launch in the Indian market.
