 If only they could have sang and danced in the streets of Kabul on Wednesday. Alas, the Taliban have banned singing and dancing in Afghanistan, along with much else that brings joy. Cricket itself could be put on the long and lengthening list of what is illegal in future, if reports from that benighted country are to be believed. Certainly, they were singing and dancing in the stands of Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Wednesday. And under the joyously buoyant and billowing Afghanistan flag in all its black, red, green and white-crested g south africa vs afghanistan lory, often fringed with gold tassels. Not the black-and-white depiction of the Shahada prayer, which the Taliban have subverted into the grim harbinger they have imposed as the national flag. They were singing and dancing long before South Africa crashed to 36/6 - their lowest score with that many wickets down in all of their 673 men's ODIs - and when they lost their seventh before they had added another run to record their...

 ECONOMYNEXT — Presidential candidate Anura Kumara Dissanayake has blamed Sri Lanka’s 2022 financial crisis on incumbent president Ranil Wickremesinghe, largely absolving former president Gotabaya Rajapaksa whose policy missteps Dissanayake attributed to ignorance. Speaking at an election rally, Dissanayake claimed that Wickremesinghe was the author of the crisis while Rajapaksa had made a few mistakes out of sheer ignorance. Dissanayake also claimed pity for Rajapaksa. “They ended oil, gas, milk powder, fuel and electricity supply to this country. Ranil Wickremesinghe is one of the main parties responsible for this though he is hiding today. Who became the accused party in the end? Gotabaya. He was there for just two and a half years.

This crisis happened because of a few things Gotabya did without understanding (notherena),” said Dissanayake. “The author of th...

 Hezbollah blames Israel after pager explosions kill nine and injure thousands in Lebanon 0:22 Watch: Small explosion in Lebanon supermarket Nine people, including a child, have been killed after handheld pagers used by members of the armed group Hezbollah to communicate exploded across Lebanon, the country’s health minister says. Iran’s ambassador to Lebanon was among 2,800 other people who were wounded by the simultaneous blasts in Beirut and several other regions.

  Manchester United enjoyed the ‘perfect night’ as their biggest victory under Erik ten Hag to cruise into the EFL Cup last-16 at the expense of hapless League One outfit Barnsley. Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho and veteran midfielder Christian Eriksen all scored twice, while Brazilian winger Antony converted a first-half spot-kick in what turned into a rout by the end. It was United's biggest win since they hammered Southampton 9-0 in February 2021 when the stands were still empty due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It was certainly a night to remember as far as Ten Hag’s tenure is concerned. United had not previously scored five under the Dutchman and the goals that got them there before Eriksen’s late brace was even more reason for celebration. “For the team this is the perfect night,” said Ten Hag. “We did everything we planned, win to reach the next round, scored some great goals, entertained the fans and worked on our game model, so we are happy." Although the visiting su...
