    After a massive victory in Australia, the Indian cricket team is back in action and is preparing for the four-Test series against the touring England squad starting from February 5, 2021.
    Following a six-day quarantine period, the Men in Blue were at The Chepauk for a team practice session. The official Twitter handle of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) shared a few pictures from the session on the field with their followers:

    Most of the fans were glad to see cricketers like Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah and Ravichandran Ashwin back with the squad after being ruled out of the Test series Down Under due to personal reasons or injuries.
    However, a certain section of online trolls could not let the opportunity to talk about the team’s practice jersey simply pass by.

    — Shreyansh Trigunayat (@Shreyansh_T) February 1, 2021Resembling the ‘alternate kit’ worn by the team during their World Cup 2019 campaign, the practice jerseys had the colour scheme of navy blue and orange. The design was not appreciated by the fans during the quadrennial tournament as well.
    Wondering where I had seen this outfit before. Just Remembered. Indianoil Petrol pump staff uniform.#BleedOrange #CWC2019 :-):-) https://t.co/YwJvQCOV3b

    — Dhruv Rathee 🇮🇳 (@dhruv_rathee) June 29, 2019The designers who’d worked on the infamous World Cup jerseys said that they wanted the fans of the team to feel a sense of identity and got inspired by one of the other Team India kits which they used to wear during T20I matches back in the day.
    "Colour options were given to BCCI and they chose the colour combination that looked the best to them. The whole idea is to be different from blue as England also wears the same shade of blue as India," an ICC source had told ANI at the time of the tournament.
    "Also the design (orange) is taken from India's old T20 jersey which had orange in it. The designers who are sitting in the USA designed this jersey from something that already existed and not something completely new that fans don't identify with," the source had added.
    But the real trolling of the jerseys began when actual petrol pump employees started thanking Team India for representing them on the biggest platform of international cricket in viral videos.

    Bollywood has several sneakerheads. A quick glance at their collection and you would see that these B-towners have laid their hands on ugly sneakers, dad sneakers or strange dirty sneakers. 
    Basically, we have seen it all. But if there's one out of the lot who believes in keeping it classy and minimalistic and still stands out, it has to be Vicky Kaushal.

    Vicky has also shown his love for zany sneakers. From wearing colourful Puma sneakers to being seen in vibrant shoes, he has also tried several trends. 

    But, he is most keen on wearing his classic coke white sneakers. Be it at the airport or casual outings, he has upped his game with simple, laidback looks with grace. 
    © Viral Bhayani
    Now the outfit that he is wearing, seems to be a perfect way to head to the airport. The light wash denim with heavy distressing and rips makes it a versatile addition. 

    That, paired with Vicky's favourite oversized black hoodie and brown backpack, further accentuated the relaxed look. The brown sunglasses too uplifted the vibe of the ensemble.

    Kartik Aaryan has a rather understated sense of style - rarely will you see the man wearing some outlandish silhouette, or over the top pieces that scream for attention.

    © Instagram/kartikaaryan
    With that being said, he does know how to dress to impress. 

    Whether you’re talking about wearing some dope looking sneakers, or quirky looking T-shirts that are priced astronomically high, the man has done it all. 
    Needless to say, the man knows a thing or two about style.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Well, if his recent outfit is anything to go by, it seems that Kartik is trying to take things up a notch. 

    He was recently spotted at the Mumbai Airport, wearing a pair of sneakers that look like they were spray painted as a part of an art project.
    © Viral Bhayani
    But first, let’s have a look at his outfit.

    Kartik is seen here wearing a rather basic white, slim-fitting T-shirt. Along with that, he is also wearing a rather zany looking mauve coloured pair of chinos. 
    © Viral Bhayani
    That in itself is a rather dope and combination. We feel that had Kartik gone for a henley collared long T-shirt or a polo T-shirt, it would have been better. Nonetheless, he still looks dapper.

    © Viral Bhayani
    We also like the bright red coloured mask from Hummel that he’s wearing. That, paired with the wayfarer sunglasses he’s wearing, look rather dope.

    © Viral Bhayani
    All this though, pale in comparison to the pair of sneakers that he is wearing. It seems they are from a non-descript brand and are actually a part of an art project, thanks to the quirky colourway.

    © Viral Bhayani
    If you look closely, it seems that they have been spray-painted to give it a rustic and artistic appeal. 

    The basic white sneakers have been purposefully made to look dirty and worn out. The blue paint splotches and stains add to this appeal.
    © Viral Bhayani
    All in all, that’s a rather dope looking outfit that Kartik is wearing, and a proper lesson in style, on how to dress down casually, without putting much of an effort. 

    It is simple, tasteful, and it works on a number of different levels.

    Well done, Kartik; that’s a neat and elegant looking outfit indeed.

    PlayStation5 is officially available in India and I have been using the console that will be available to gamers in India from today. Whether one wants to admit it or not, the PlayStation 5 truly feels like a next-generation console that offers powerful graphics, ray tracing, super-fast loading times and in some games, new experiences, thanks to the DualSense controller. If I had to put everything in one sentence that encapsulates console gaming, I’ll probably end up saying it's “Gaming at its best this generation.” I’ve been a loyal PlayStation user ever since the first console launched in 1994. Since then I’ve owned and cherished every PlayStation hardware Sony has put out but that also means I pay attention to the details. Some work in the favour of the console while others need some ironing out.
    Here’s what I think about the PlayStation 5 after spending an entire week experiencing next-gen gaming on the console:
    Design © charles-sims-unsplash
    Even though you’ve probably heard and seen the console almost everywhere since the PlayStation 5 has come to India a few months after other regions; I still have to give context for Indian homes. PlayStation consoles have always been sleek, elegant and manageable in size since its very inception. That’s because Japanese households are quite mute with even lesser space than most countries around the world. The case remains the same for India as well which means every prior PlayStation console has managed to fit in well in Indian homes as well.

    However, this time around Sony is doing a few things differently as the PlayStation 5 is quite large. It still has an elegant, stylish and futuristic design but it is the biggest console Sony has ever made, no matter which orientation you use it in. The console is taller than its new next-gen rival i.e. the Xbox Series X. It is, however, more interesting looking than the Series X in almost every way. It has its own unique identity whereas the Series X looks like a plain black box. However, due to its larger size, I would recommend using the console in the vertical position as it takes up less space and looks better as well.
    The console does come with a stand to help it stay balanced no matter which orientation you plan on using it in. The stand screws into the bottom or clamps onto the rear port area if you plan to use it horizontally. It is essential to use the console with this stand as it does not have any true flat surface to keep it balanced.

    However, there is an advantage to the bigger size because it allows the console to keep cool, quiet and churn out great performance. The PlayStation 4 Pro, towards the end of its cycle sounded like a jet engine when playing most games from the past three years. The sound was quite jarring and the soundless performance of the PlayStation 5 was like music to my ears.

    The futuristic design of the PlayStation 5 does feel quite out there, however after using it for a while, I got used to its looks. While you will not notice the first time you look at the console, once you look closer, you will spot minute details that set this console apart from its predecessors and the competition. There’s an attractive LED on each side of the interior which flashes blue, white or orange depending on the status of the console. You will also find the iconic PS controller button symbols etched into each panel and the controller.
    Ports © MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
    The PlayStation 5 comes with plenty of ports that will support an array of accessories over the years. There is a USB Type-A port in the front which supports Hi-Speed data transfers and a USB-C port as well. The USB-A port can be used to run your PlayStation 4 games from an external hard drive if you don’t want to install them on the internal SSD. The USB-C port can be used for fast charging the remote and connecting USB-C devices as well which is great to see on a console finally.

    At the back, you will have two more USB-A ports, an ethernet port and an HDMI 2.1 Port. The PS5 is powered by an AC adapter like previous consoles which is fairly standard today. However, the PlayStation 5 does not have an optical audio port which can be a bit of a problem for users who would like to connect home theatres or ASTRO headsets. You can, however, use an optical-to-HDMI adapter for the Astro headsets but it wouldn’t be a great experience due to digital signal conversion.
    There is an additional PCIe 4.0 M.2 expansion slot for SSDs that you can install in the future. It is currently disabled by default and even makes the console unusable if you install an NVME SSD right now. I hope Sony enables the expansion slot soon as the internal SSD only offers 667GB of usable space on the console out of the box. 
    What Comes in The Box © MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
    Apart from the usual HDMI 2.1 and the power cable that comes with the console, there’s a surprise in store for Indian users. The console comes quite well packed but within the packaging, you will find two pieces of paper that make it ultra special for first-day buyers. There’s a certification of ownership which says “India Day1 PS5 Consumer.” Apart from the certificate, there’s also a yellow warranty card issued by Sony India which is only valid in the country.

    User Interface And SoftwareThe PlayStation 5 uses a very clean, fast and elegant user interface that you have probably seen to death online. Navigating feels like a breeze and starting games take less time than ever before. It makes the PlayStation 4 feel like a thing of the past. You can now dive into missions straight from the activities menu and save time loading up your save files and even look up guides if they are available to view from the menus.

    Having said that, the PlayStation 5 does not bring any of the actions you would do on the PlayStation 4. The user interface at the moment lacks continuity and involves a few extra taps to do very basic things. For starters, joining voice parties is not as streamlined as it was on the PlayStation 4. Similarly, closing applications and games felt far more intuitive on the PS4 than it does on the PS5 since it also requires a few extra taps.

    The PlayStation 5 also does not suspend games in the background like the Series X which means you cannot switch between games. There’s no similar feature as ‘Quick Resume’ which I felt was a huge miss on Sony’s part.

    While the user interface does feel new, it lacks a lot of things the PlayStation 4 was able to do. Some useful additions will forever change how we interact with the console but there are a few features that aren’t as polished as I thought it would be at launch.

    DualSense ControllerThe DualSense controller is by far my favourite thing about the PlayStation 5 as it offers new experiences no other controller offers right now. The controller is far more ergonomic and minimal looking than any other controller by Sony. But the marquee feature here is the gamepad’s haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, microphone and a built-in speaker that works in tandem with games. The adaptive triggers offer resistance when using certain items or actions in games which is an entirely new thing to experience. It is hard to describe it in words but it makes sense as it adds to the overall experience and immersion.

    The gamepad can also give tactile feedback from its new haptic feedback feature in games which are best experienced in Astro’s Playroom. You can feel all types of services such as ice, rain, sand and even other sensations such as gliding. You will also feel some feedback when carrying certain actions such as climbing up on ropes, ladders and monkey bars. The feedback from the controller is intricate yet detailed at the same time. You have to experience it for yourself to find that out.

    You will also feel these subtle vibrations in other games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Devil may Cry 5: Special Edition, and Demon’s Souls. In Devil May Cry 5 SE, I could feel every hack, slash and recharging on both the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. The case remains the same for Sony first-party games where you feel the most nuanced vibrations during key battles, slinging between buildings and even cut scenes. In Miles Morales, you will even hear the sound of buzzing electricity from the speaker whenever you would use Venom attacks.
    PerformanceThe PlayStation 5 packs a punch, thanks to its 8-core AMD Zen 2 processor, a super-fast SSD and 10.3 teraflops of GPU power. Most games, even unoptimised ones look beautiful on the console which makes the upgrade worth it. I tested both old and new games on the console to see how much of an upgrade it is. The PlayStation 5 makes games like Ghost of Tsushima, GTA V, Jedi Fallen Order amongst others look far better and run at higher frames than ever before. Graphic fidelity feels impressive and the loading times are the most important upgrade you will notice in games.
    © MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
    Games like DmC 5 SE run ultra-smooth on the new console as it supports up to 120 frames per second and 4K resolution. Hack and slash games like DmC felt like a whole another game on the PS5 if you played the normal version on the PS4 earlier. The game also has ultra-fast loading times which makes resuming your games faster and less frustrating.

    The PS5 version of Miles Morales also has a dedicated performance and ray tracing mode which makes the game look prettier than its last-gen version. You can run the game at 4K/60FPS on performance mode as well which makes slinging and zipping through New York City at 60 frames feel like a dream. The SSD also comes into play here as you can get into the game from the menu in about two seconds. That is blazingly fast when compared to the PlayStation 4 as it takes ten times the time to get into the game on the last-gen console.

    The story remains the same with Demon’s Souls as well where you do not face any loading screens when moving from one section to another. The higher frame rates and the improved visuals is probably the only way to play this game all over again. The game comes with a performance and a cinematic mode as well. The PlayStation 5 hardware allows the game to render impressive draw distance and visuals with immense detail for people to immerse themselves in the world of Boletaria.
    Is It Worth It? © MensXP_Akshay Bhalla
    The PlayStation 5 is going to offer great memories in the next few years simply because of what this console is capable of. While the UI and OS need a bit of work to bring the entire experience full circle, the PlayStation 5 will define next-generation gaming. With great exclusives, impeccable hardware performance and a spectacular gamepad, the PS5 is looking at a bright future. The only thing the PlayStation 5 needs right now is a competing subscription service like the Xbox Game Pass.

    It is clear that 2020 was a big year for Ali Fazal, especially, in terms of his brilliant acting. With the massive success of the second instalment of Mirzapur and the international release of his film Death On The Nile, he's clearly been on a roll.  
    While he's always been a versatile actor with a longstanding history of playing diverse roles, one can never guess what Ali Fazal is going to do next. 
    View this post on InstagramBut even on the style front as well, Ali Fazal always manages to keep up with bizarre seasonal trends to make a stellar impression, every time he steps out of the house.  
    Amid the coronavirus pandemic, the world came to a halt in March as most countries were put in a lockdown. 
    Amid the Indian lockdown, which lasted a significant amount of time, most industries had come to a halt. But when Bollywood finally resumed its operations, Ali Fazal too resumed work on his pending films. 
    Recently, on his way to a shoot, he was spotted in a rather interesting outfit. Take a look at his ensemble here:

    Ali Fazal was seen wearing a black hoodie with a graphic print with a pair of cargo pants that had multiple big pockets, to complete the look he also wore dirty white shoes that could easily pass off as coke whites. 

    Take a close look at the details here:

    Coke whites refer to the whitest of white sneakers that exist out there. 

    In street drips, coke whites are often a matter of pride. However, we all know that the upkeep of white shoes can prove to be extremely taxing. 
    Especially in the moist and damp climate of Mumbai, which is why it makes sense if Ali Fazal's coke whites got dirty and he wore them regardless when he stepped out.
    © Viral Bhayani
    On the work front, he is currently busy shooting for his upcoming film, Bhoot Police which also stars the likes of Arjun Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan. 

    After he wraps up this shoot, he will start shooting for Prakash Raj's Tadka.

    The 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy is being considered one of the greatest Test series in the history of international cricket and at the helm of the all things was the Indian skipper Ajinkya Rahane.
    Ever since assuming the responsibilities of a captain after Virat Kohli left for home following the Adelaide Test, Rahane’s team was plagued with injuries and it was quickly becoming difficult to even put together a decent team for the clashes against a loaded Australian side and that too on their own turf.
    View this post on Instagram
    Still, the 32-year-old maintained his calmness and dealt with each and every hurdle with utmost professionalism and wisdom. By the end of the series, Rahane’s captaincy not only guided his team to a series victory but also got him acknowledged all over the world as a legitimate leader.
    Rahane credits the ‘Vedanta Philosophy’ for the way he worked under all the pressure which led to him achieving timeless greatness in the most prestigious and gruelling format of the game.

    “I think it comes naturally to me. I have been learning about Vedanta philosophy, and I have been practicing it even during the lockdown… I have been following the philosophy for the past six-seven years,” Rahane was quoted by Cricket Addictor. 
    But What Exactly Is The ‘Vedanta Philosophy’?

    The Vedanta Society of Southern California (https://vedanta.org/what-is-vedanta/) describes ‘Vedanta’ as “a combination of two words: “Veda” which means “knowledge” and “anta” which means “the end of” or “the goal of.” In this context the goal of knowledge isn’t intellectual—the limited knowledge we acquire by reading books. “Knowledge” here means the knowledge of God as well as the knowledge of our own divine nature. Vedanta, then, is the search for Self-knowledge as well as the search for God.”
    The philosophy affirms: 
    The oneness of existence,The divinity of the soul, andThe harmony of all religions.“It has been helping me a lot in life when it comes to coping with success and failure, to understand what is important in life and what matters to you. It has been working very well for me,” Rahane said.
    “The philosophy is about life, it is not related to cricket… How to deal with pressure situations, how to deal with success and failure, if you are failing, how you can be calm and positive, and what is the bigger picture,” he added.
