Shaheen, Amir star as Pakistan dismiss New Zealand for just 90 in Twenty20 clash - News | Khaleej Times

khaleejtimes.com/sports/cricket/shaheen-amir-star-as-pakistan-dismiss-new-zealand-for-just-90-in-twenty20-clash

Quick Glance: Dominant Pakistan Defeats New Zealand in Twenty20 Match

Shaheen Shah Afridi and Mohammad Amir led Pakistan to a convincing victory over New Zealand in their second Twenty20 match in Rawalpindi.

Pakistan opted to let New Zealand bat first, with Shaheen leading the attack with 3-13, while Amir finished with 2-13 after almost four years of international absence.

Spinners Abrar Ahmed (2-15) and Shadab Khan (2-15) intensified the pressure as New Zealand was dismissed for their second lowest score against Pakistan in the shortest format.

The second Twenty20 match was abandoned after just two deliveries due to rain. Both teams are gearing up for the upcoming Twenty20 World Cup set to take place in June in the United States and the West Indies.

wsj.com/economy/inflation-in-new-zealand-eases-but-near-term-rate-cuts-unlikely-a4cfaac0

Quick Glance: Powell Warns of Lack of Progress on Inflation

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized that the U.S. economy, while otherwise strong, has not seen a return of inflation to the central bank's target.

Powell mentioned that the current policy should remain in place as inflation has not declined quickly enough and there has been no further progress towards the 2% goal.

Since July 2023, the Fed has maintained its benchmark interest rate in a target range between 5.25% and 5.5%, the result of 11 consecutive rate hikes.

Financial markets have had to adjust their expectations for rate cuts this year as inflation has been higher than expected, and the Fed's policy continues to be dependent on data.

X/Twitter will charge new users to post, Elon Musk says: Making users pay is only way to stop bots taking over platform

Quick Glance: Musk Plans Fee for New X Users

Elon Musk intends to charge new users of X in the initial months to curb the activity of automated bot accounts.

The fee is set to be waived after three months to allow free posting.

Tests in New Zealand and the Philippines raised skepticism about the effectiveness of the fee as a countermeasure against bots.

Declining revenues at X post-rebranding and Twitter acquisition, along with a negative brand perception by companies, are impacting the service's business.

Quick Glance: South Korea Objects to Japanese Leaders' Yasukuni Shrine Offerings

South Korea expressed deep disappointment on Sunday over Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's offerings at the Yasukuni Shrine and urged Japanese leaders to show repentance for the country's wartime past.

The shrine is viewed by Beijing and Seoul as a representation of Japan's historical military aggression due to its inclusion of 14 Japanese wartime leaders among the 2.5 million war dead honored there.

The South Korean government calls on Japanese leaders to confront history and demonstrate sincere repentance, which would be a crucial step towards enhancing relations between the two countries.

Despite progress in the South Korea-Japan relationship, particularly in security cooperation, the offerings made by Kishida and some cabinet members at the Yasukuni Shrine have sparked protests from South Korea.

Despite weather glitch, the Paris Olympics flame is lit at the Greek cradle of ancient games

Quick Glance: Paris Olympics Flame Lit in Greek Cradle Amid Weather Challenges

Despite the absence of Apollo, the flame for the Paris Olympics was ignited at the site of the ancient games in southern Greece on Tuesday.

A backup flame was used as cloudy skies prevented the traditional lighting, where an actress dressed as an ancient Greek priestess typically uses the sun to ignite a silver torch.

The flame will be carried by torchbearers from Olympia for over 5000 kilometers through Greece before being handed over to the Paris Games organizers in Athens on April 26.

The Belem, a French three-masted sailing ship, will transport the Olympic flame from Greece to Marseille, arriving on May 8 after visiting the historic site of Olympia.

rnz.co.nz/news/world/514908/tesla-cuts-prices-in-china-germany-and-around-globe-after-us

Quick Glance: Tesla cuts prices in US, China and Germany as competition intensifies

Tesla has announced aggressive price cuts in China and Germany, shortly after reducing prices in the United States, as the world’s largest maker of electric vehicles (EV) faces declining sales and growing competition in major markets.

The prices of four models were slashed in China by 14,000 yuan ($1,932), while in Germany, the price of the Model 3 rear-wheel drive was lowered by 2,000 euros ($2,132). Earlier cuts were made in the US, with prices of three models reduced, while prices for the Model 3 and Cybertruck remained unchanged.

The price cuts come during a tough time for Tesla, with a significant stock plunge and a drop in quarterly deliveries. Elon Musk postponed his planned India trip due to company obligations. In China, Tesla's price cuts escalate an existing price war in a highly competitive sector influenced by other manufacturers like BYD offering more affordable options.

The price wars in China began in 2022 and continue with over 30 car makers announcing further price reductions, impacting the entire auto industry's profit margins. Competitors like BYD and XPeng are also offering subsidies and lowering prices to attract buyers in the EV market, posing challenges to Tesla's market dominance.
