SERIE A 2020-21 SEASON PREVIEW: Can Juventus win the league title for the 10th consecutive time?

SERIE A 2020-21 SEASON PREVIEW: Can Juventus win the league title for the 10th consecutive time?

This is Juventus Football Club, 9-time straight winners of the Serie A. The past decade has seen them defeat and in some cases, demolish teams on their way to winning the Scudetto. But, there is an uncertain air as we approach Italian football in these uncertain times. With a new management in place and some fresh players in the squad, the elephant in the room is clear – can Juventus do the 10-peat?

Transfer Activity

Juventus have so far brought in 23-years old mercurial midfielder Arthur Melo alongside Weston Mckennie from Schalke. With a host of existing players also back from loan, most notably Dejan Kulusevski and Luca Pellegrini. If latest rumours are to be belived, they are also close to signing Edin Dzeko from Roma. So far, Juventus have lost Gonzalo Higuain, Blaise Matuidi and Miralem Pjanic. All in all, it has been a decent window in the transfer market for the ‘Old Lady’.

Strength

Funnily enough, Juventus’ biggest strength is not technical in nature. It is not about their attack or defence, but their elite champion spirit. The idea that they can win games even when things are not going well for them. Eventually, the efforts are concentrated for short periods of time, and they sneak out victories. Add in the fact that they have enough quality on the bench that can step onto the pitch and create instant pitch, and that is something that bodes well for Juventus.

Weakness

Quite simply, the unpredictability that Andrea Pirlo’s coaching will offer. Juventus have been fortunate in recent times to have talented managers such as Antonio Conte, Max Allegri and lately Maurizio Sarri. In contrast, the ex-star Juventus midfielder has no prior coaching experience with any top-flight team. Another weakness presents in the form of attack not cohesively functioning at times. They are much reliant on the likes of Dybala and Ronaldo to bail them out, which needs to be improved by Pirlo.

Key Player

Who else, but Cristiano Ronaldo? It only seems like yesterday that Ronaldo embraced the football world and put his skills on show. At 35, where most players suffer sharp decline, he is fitter and hungrier than ever. The fact that his numbers read 31 goals and 5 assists in 38 games last season, shows how high his standards have continued to be over the years. In this new gen team, he will look to be the focal point, and under Pirlo can finally start playing the centre forward role – which he does to such a devastating effect.

Predicted Table Finish

Champions! But only just. Inter Milan under superior backing and refreshment, have a mission of their own. And it could prove to be a title race that goes down right to the wire. Juventus will start as favourites, but can they keep up the tag under new manager Pirlo is going to be very interesting to watch.

Redmi K40 Pro leaks reveal upgraded camera and performance over the K30 Pro

The Redmi K30 Pro launched earlier this year and now the company is all set to release the successor of that phone, dubbed as the Redmi K40 Pro. The company hasn’t shared any official information about the specifications of the upcoming phone. As of now, a number of leaks about this phone have already been out on the internet. Let’s check out what are tipsters are saying about the upcoming phone.

According to some leaks, the Redmi K40 pro is expected to run on the Android 10 OS and will be powered by a Snapdragon 875 processor. It is quite an expected thing as the predecessors of this model such as the Redmi K20 Pro is powered by the Snapdragon 855 SoC and the Redmi K30 Pro is powered by the Snapdragon 865 SoC.

Now coming to the camera section. Reports are saying that the camera module is also a huge improvement comparing to the K30 Pro. The Redmi K40 Pro will sport Samsung’s new 108 MP ISOCELL HM2 sensor. So, this is obviously an improvement. Interestingly, the upcoming Mi 10T Pro might feature the same camera sensor (108 MP ISOCELL HM2). In all aspects, the HM2 is definitely a better sensor than the 64 MP Sony IMX686 on the Redmi K30 Pro. Not only the camera but also in the battery section, the Redmi K40 Pro is expected to defeat the Redmi K30 Pro. That means we are going to get a bigger battery with faster charging in this upcoming phone.

Now that’s all we’ve got till now. As the news has been teased by the company itself, we can expect some more news about the specification or pricing of that phone in the upcoming days.

AMD will be grabbing as much as 20% of the notebook market share

The lions share of Intel seems to fade as AMD Ryzen 4000 becomes strong

Maybe this was the outcome we all been waiting to see, yes, team Red is making steady progress in the notebook market. Its recent sales in the last one to two years have helped AMD gain as much as 20% of the notebook processor share in 2020 as reported by Digitimes.

Intel has already lost to AMD in the desktop CPU market sales and now gone are the days of dominance from Intel as the budget-conscious people are now loving Ryzen mobile APUs. From ultra-low-budget Chromebooks to flagship 2-in-1s, Ryzen has found a place in every mobile device.

Good news AMD fans, Lenovo launches new gaming laptops with Ryzen 4000H processors starting at $660

OEMs now whole-heartedly use AMD processors on notebooks while Intel still remain their main driver, but, thanks to the pricing of AMD, the budget notebooks are not crappy anymore. If you feel its only Digitimes that has made this bold claim then you are wrong because even Mercury Research says the market share of AMD laptops is now 19.9%.

Tiger Lake is promising, but Ryzen 4000 Renoir APUs are strong as well and at the price which they come in Intel cannot even think of. On top of that, to add to Intel’s bad luck, Apple will not use Intel chips on Macs which is a huge setback for team Blue.

The only constraint for AMD now is the supplies, it could have even exceeded the 20% market share if they had ample stocks from TSMC, however, they assure that Ryzen 4000 will be back in stocks and we will see more laptops coming in.

IPL 2020: Top 10 batsmen who are contenders to win the Orange Cap

IPL 2020: Top 10 batsmen who are contenders to win the Orange Cap

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 is only a week away. After the tournament was postponed, after many hindrances and altercations, the IPL will begin on September 19 in UAE.

The fact that the tournament is in UAE, will bring an interesting element to every aspect of the game. However, most of the time under sub-continental conditions one thing remains constant, a free flow of runs! After all, cricket by many is termed as a batsman’s game.

Today we will name 10 batsmen who are contenders to win the orange cap. The orange cap is given to the highest run-scorer of the tournament. However, it signifies more than that. It’s a sign of consistency, performing several times across 14 games to retain that cap. Also, due to being in UAE, one may think the conditions to favor Indian batsmen. However, that might not be the case as IPL played in Indian conditions over the years, has made the international players accustomed as well.

Also, just having an orange cap does not necessarily mean that team will reach the playoffs. Last year Mumbai Indians didn’t have an orange or purple cap and yet went on to win the tournament.

Ambati Rayadu (CSK)

Rayadu is probably one of the most underrated cricketers in the Indian cricket. He’s probably the dark horse on this list. After getting a chance to open for Chennai Super Kings, he has been an integral part of their success since last two years. He also takes charge so that Shane Watson on the other end can set in. Rayadu prematurely retired last year, however he has a lot of cricket left in him.

(PC- NDTV Sports)

Aaron Finch (RCB)

Finch will come into the IPL as the number 3 ranked T20 batsman in the world. He will most probably open the batting for Royal Challengers Bangalore. He will probably be accompanied by Parthiv Patel who will go guns blazing. This will give Finch some time to set himself up and will also have the cushion of Kohli and De Villiers at 3 and 4. Also, he will enter the IPL with some great form.

Johnny Bairstow (SRH)

Bairstow was a surprise addition among one of the highest run-getters of the tournament last year. He has had a great 2010 and even 2020 ever since. He has been in sublime form since World Cup 2019 to the England-Australia series in 2020. He will bring a lot of momentum into the IPL.

Glenn Maxwell (KXIP)

Maxwell became the first player in the history of the sport to take some time off of cricket due to mental/stress issues. He made a rejuvenated comeback and hasn’t looked back ever since. He went on to become the number 1 ranked all-rounder in T20 cricket. Just like Bairstow, he’s in great form as well and is coming off a series-winning hundred and Man of the Series award in the recent series against England.

Jos Buttler (RR)

Jos Buttler has evolved himself into a great T20 opener. He has always been amongst the runs for RR and has continued to do that to date in all three formats of the sport. This year he will be accompanied by the young and exciting Yashasvi Jaiswal who can provide him assistance as well.

(PC- Sportstar)

Andre Russell (KKR)

Andre Russell is one of best all-rounders and most vicious batsmen in the world. KKR have got a change in management which has former NZ captain Brendan McCullum as their coach. McCullum is known for taking aggressive decisions both as a player and as a captain. He has decided to promote Russell at number 3. It will be interesting to see how Russell does at number 3.

(PC- Sportskeeda)

Rohit Sharma (MI)

Sharma or rather Mumbai Indians have never been among the caps. But you can never count the ‘Hitman’ out. Sharma has been moving up and down the order due to team combination and responsibility issues. However, now that their middle-order issues are fairly resolved with Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan, Sharma can whole-heartedly focus on opening. He will have an equally dangerous Quinton de Kock with him.

David Warner (SRH)

The entire world is well aware of what David Warner can do, especially in the shorter format of the game. Warner can be a game changer and has evolved into a really good player of spin as well. He will enter the IPL in great form as well.

KL Rahul (KXIP)

Rahul has been the lone warrior for KXIP for the last two years. However, he has updated himself into a vicious T20 cricketer. Rahul finds himself at an impressive spot of number 2 on the T20 best batsman rankings. Despite moving around in the stacked Indian batting line up, the Karnataka cricketer has consistently delivered match-winning performances both in ODIs and T20s.

Virat Kohli (RCB)

Virat Kohli is hands down one of the best batsmen to grace a cricket pitch. The man is a legend irrespective of format, opposition, and conditions. He can play the bull and the matador. This year he is not only expected to score high but also lead RCB to their maiden IPL trophy ever.

The headset is powered by Qualcomm XR2 SoC coupled with 6GB of RAM. Further, the new headset just weighs 503 grams that is lighter than the original Quest which weighs 571 grams.

The controller has also got the update which makes it a lot more power efficient then the last generation.

Apart from launching a new product Oculus has also discontinued an old one which is none other than Rift S and will be replaced by the newly launched Quest 2 since it is also capable to function as a PC VR headset with the additional Quest Link accessory.

The Oculus Quest 2 is priced at $299 for the 64GB variant while for an extra $100 you can grab the 256GB storage variant and can be preordered starting today in the US, UK, and Europe while the delivery will be starting from October 13. The second iteration of Quest is priced $100 lesser than the original Quest which launched back in 2018 for $399 for the base storage variant.

The compatible titles include Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge, Myst, Jurassic World Aftermath, Warhammer 40,000 Battle Sister, Pistol Whip: 2089, The Climb 2, and Rez Infinite which will be coming later this year.
