Captain Cool thanks PM Narendra Modi for token of appreciation

0

After the news of retirement from International cricket of MS Dhoni, every citizen of this nation showed gratitude to this living legend. Our beloved PM was not any different. PM Narendra Modi sent a two-page appreciation letter to MS Dhoni for everything he has done in the cricket field for the country.

So, after five days of retirement MS too thanked PM Narendra Modi for the token of appreciation and best wishes in twitter. Dhoni has also posted the picture of that two-page appreciation letter. But for obvious reasons that picture is taken down.

In that letter, our PM praised the former captain cum player of this Indian cricket team, not only for his contribution on the field of cricket but also for everything he has done till now for the sake of the country. Whether it is helping the poor or experiencing the tough life of the Indian army, MS Dhoni was always in the front seat. Many times he said that if he was not a cricketer he would have loved to join the Indian army and fight for his motherland.

“But, the name Mahendra Singh Dhoni will not be remembered merely for his career statistics or specific match-winning roles. Looking at you as just a sportsperson would be injustice. The correct way to assess your impact is as a phenomenon!” PM Modi wrote in his letter.

A whole book will be small if we try to consider what MS Dhoni has done for Indian cricket. Starting from the 2007 T20 World Cup to 2011 ICC World Cup and 2013 Champions trophy, he became the only captain to win all the ICC trophies. His calmness in tough situations, his mind games were just lit to watch.

“In your trademark unassuming style you shared a video that was enough to become a passionate discussion point for entire nation. 130 Cr Indians were disappointed but also eternally grateful for all that you have done for Indian cricket,” PM Modi wrote to Dhoni.

From the greatest finisher of all time to the lighting stumping behind the wickets, the nation will surely remember his legacy throughout those years of Indian cricket. PM Modi also sent good wishes to Sakshi (Dhonis’s wife) and Ziva (Dhoni’s daughter) in that letter.

RCB death bowling nightmare still haunts Yuzi Chahal

Royal Challengers Bangalore reached the IPL finals three times in 2009, 2011 and 2016. But unfortunately, every time ended on the losing side. In spite of having such quality players and with a fearless captain it is very hard to see the fate of the Royals in the past couple of IPL seasons. Batting is not the problem in this team. Top class batsmen Virat Kohli (captain), AB De Villers are the two main pillars of this side. Apart from those there were a lot of world-class batsmen were in this side, but they still failed to win their first IPL title.

Lets get into the topic, WHY?

There is a recent statement by a promising young leg spinner of this team, Yuzvendra Chahal. He says, “Our problem has always been death over bowling”. According to the leggy, 30% of games RCB has lost in the last 3 to 4 overs after having kept the opposition in check for the first 16-17 overs of the innings.

“Because we keep a tight leash till the 16th or 17th over, but I feel we have lost at least 30% of the matches due to the last 3 overs.”

27kohli Abd RCB death bowling nightmare still haunts Yuzi Chahal

This team has a pretty decent batting line up with world-class batsmen so putting up a huge score into the board is not a big issue for this team. The issue is to defend that total. Though with some quality bowlers RCB somehow manage to restrict the opposition for 12 to 13 overs. But the last 5 overs which is the crunch overs for a T-20 match, they lose their cool and constantly leak runs for the opposition.

I think no one needs to do high research for the examples. We are very much known what was happened in the last year IPL against Kolkata Knight Riders. KKR was losing wickets and the game was almost 90% in the grip of RCB. But unfortunately, the destruction began in the last 5 overs by Andre Russell and KKR managed to score freaking 53+ runs in the last 3 and a half overs. So, this is obviously not expected from a team led by Kohli and loaded with super guns.

Chahal also threw some light to take this matter seriously by the franchise and necessary steps should be taken during an interaction with Aakash Chopra shared on the latter’s Facebook page. Because it is quite a regular problem for the men in red in every IPL season. That’s why they are literally called ‘Chokers’ which is not expected from this quality team.

The leg spinner addressed Mitchell Starc as the only ray of hope in death bowing for that only one season. Other than that death bowling kills RCB every time.

“It always comes to our mind what we should do next. I have played for RCB for 6 years, the problem has always been, other than the one year when we had Starc, our death-over bowling.”

“If you restrict a team to 130-odd after 16 overs, you feel that you can keep them to 160 or at the most 170, but at times due to those 3 overs, the score goes to 190 or 200. So that changes everything suddenly.”

According to the leg spinner if you can not stay focused in those crunch moments and concede runs in death overs, the opposition always gets momentum to stage a massive comeback and most of the times this is the only margin between a winning and a losing side.

Bluetooth SIG is working to implement COVID-19 exposure tracking to Wearables

0

Bluetooth Special Interest Group (Bluetooth SIG), the organization which sets Bluetooth Standards of all the devices across the world, is now working to develop a new specification that enables the Exposure Notification System (ENS) to wearables.

In case you don’t know about ENS, it’s a smartphone-centric Bluetooth technology that the whole world is using currently to inform the smartphone user whether s/he has been in close contact with someone who earlier tested positive of coronavirus. For example – the Aarogya Setu application of India is using the same technology.

After deployment, wearables such as smartwatches and fitness trackers will also able to do the same tracking job, using Bluetooth, same as the smartphones. This will be helpful for those who don’t have a smartphone with advanced capabilities – like kids and senior people.

Bluetooth SIG_TechnoSports.co.in

Bluetooth SIG wrote, “By extending an ENS to include wearables, such as wristbands, it can better address population groups where smartphone usage remains low, including children in primary school and older adults living in care facilities,”

The organization said it will publish an initial draft of the specifications, which will be available to review by the next few months. Besides, over 130 Bluetooth member companies already joined the Bluetooth SIG Exposure Notification Working Group (ENWG) for this project.

Though it’s still not clear how and when this technology will be deployed to the wearables, it is going to become very much helpful for sure.

Oppo F17 Pro launching in India soon as the sleekest phone of 2020

0

Oppo India tweeted the upcoming launch of the Oppo F17 Pro. In the month of January Oppo had launched the Oppo F15 in India and almost after seven month the company is back with its successor. A few days ago we reported that a new oppo smartphone will launch in India pretty soon, and as we expected the company is already talking about Oppo F17 Pro smartphone.

From the short video shared in the tweet, the company has portrayed it as “The Sleekest Phone Of 2020”, while the phone is 7.48mm thick and only 164g light being one of the lightest and slimmest smartphone launched this year. The company has not revealed the exact launch date of the smartphone but it is expected to launch by the end of this month or earlier next month.

The phone shown in the short video clip has a left profile with the sim-tray and volume buttons. From this angle only two cameras are visible but we can not expect this phone to have only two cameras as the Oppo F15 had quad-rear camera setup at the back. So, this might be the case that this phone will come with a square shaped camera layout and thus only two cameras are visible from this angle.

Oppo F17 Pro targets the youth of India and might be priced around Rs.25,000 ($335/€280) segment in 2020. As per our source, the phone will launch in early September. A few days ago, OPPO PEAM00 was spotted on the TENAA website and some key specs of the device have been revealed. The listing has been spotted by Mukul Sharma, he has also shared two images of the device.

Transparent Solar Panels’ efficiency hiked to a record level

0

Transparent Solar panels are here in the market for quite a long time. These are generally used to the buildings that block sunlight to reach the ground. The obstructed light is used to produce energy. But, unfortunately, the efficiency of these panels was too low. So, further engineering and development work, on it, is running.

As a result, the researchers from the University of Michigan come up with a new design that provides 8.1% of efficiency and it’s a current record. The research details are published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Transparent Solar Panels' efficiency hiked to a record level - 1_TechnoSports.co.in

Along with the 8.1% efficiency, these new panel design is also 43.3% transparent as the design is based on carbon, a less toxic material than silicon that is generally used in this. The assistant research scientist Yongxi Li explained to Michigan News – “The new material we developed, and the structure of the device we built, had to balance multiple trade-offs to provide good sunlight absorption, high voltage, high current, low resistance and color-neutral transparency all at the same time,”

The organic molecules of this design are specially engineered to be transparent and absorb near-infrared light that is an invisible part of the spectrum and it accounts for much of the energy.
