    Samsung’s next TWS earphones have been leaked online and look quite similar to what we’ve seen from the South Korean giant previously. The TWS earbuds in question are expected to be called the Galaxy Buds Pro and some images of the earbuds were leaked by Evan Blass via Voice. It is worth pointing out that Samsung has already registered the Galaxy Buds Pro name in an FCC listing recently.

    From the leak, we can also see that the next TWS earbuds by Samsung will come in a new violet colour. Samsung usually launches its TWS earphones in multiple colour options and we will see other variants during its official launch. In terms of features, not much has been detailed, however the ‘Pro’ nomenclature indicates that it may come with some form of Active Noise Cancellation. There are other reports that suggest that the Galaxy Buds Pro will not be a direct successor to the Galaxy Buds Live and will sell alongside the already existing portfolio. Samsung launched the Galaxy Buds Live alongside the Note 20 Ultra with a bean-shaped design that also features active noise cancellation.

    The Galaxy Buds Pro will also include other feature upgrades such as improved Ambient mode and a larger 473mAh battery. The Galaxy Buds Live already comes with the same battery capacity and it wouldn’t be a surprise if Samsung did the same for their new TWS earbuds.

    Given his reputation as one of the most technically sound batsman, a thoroughbred cricketer who plays and wins matches based on textbook strokes and discipline, it is rather shocking everyone Virat Kohli tries some unorthodox shots on the field.
    Here are four times Virat Kohli got ‘creative’ & played unexpected shots that’d take your breath away:
    1. India Vs Australia (2nd T20I, 2020)Virat Kohli or AB de Villiers? 🤯

    Ridiculous shot from the Indian skipper! #AUSvIND pic.twitter.com/6g8xY8ihIj
    — cricket.com.au (@cricketcomau) December 6, 2020
    Desperate times call for desperate actions and with the Indian batting order struggling to keep up with the required run rate, Kohli tried something nobody, not even the commentators were expecting. 
    The second T20I match between India and Australia got itself a major talking point when Indian skipper Virat Kohli borrowed a trick from his buddy, AB de Villiers and scooped for a cheeky six over his left shoulder.
    2. RCB Vs DD (IPL 2017)Did u Guys Remember this Shot? @imVkohli pic.twitter.com/SM5sSHsnA6

    Batting in the middle with Chris Gayle, the RCB skipper chose one of the classiest shots for an unlikely outcome. A perfectly timed cover-drive against the Delhi Daredevils during the 2017 season of the Indian Premier League allowed Kohli to use the bowlers pace and simply loft the ball over the boundary for an unexpected six. 
    Even the announcers were awestruck and comically said that Kohli only played that shot to bag the ‘Best Shot of the Match’ award.
    3. India Vs Australia (4th ODI, 2019)
    Coming off two back to back centuries during the five-match ODI series against the Aussies, an extremely confident Virat Kohli dared to shut his cricket textbook and went for what was later termed a ‘slap shot’ against Jason Behrendoff. 
    With an aim to keep up with the tempo, Kohli tried a unique shot that surprised everyone from fans to experts present at the Punjab Cricket Association IS Bindra Stadium, Mohali.

    — INDIAN CRICKET NEWS (@INDIANCRICKETN1) October 10, 2020
    This is what happens when you are best friends with Mr. 360, himself! In the recent most season of the Indian Premier League, Kohli read the bowler like a book and literally walked to his right before scooping the ball over his shoulder, while falling to the ground because of disbalance.

    Arguably one of the most popular and influential cricketers in the modern era of the sport, Virat Kohli, on the back of consistent performances, has carved his own niche in international cricket. From his electric fielding, unmatched leadership skills to majestic batting display, Kohli has surely reached the pinnacle of the sport.
    For a man who couldn't seem to do any wrong, Kohli has looked a pale shadow of himself during India's ongoing tour of Australia. The captaincy of the Delhi lad has been under scanner with popular figures in the gentleman's game raising questions on his decision to tamper with the team selection. His fielding, too, has been pretty ordinary with the Indian captain spilling two simple catches in the recent past.
    Oh dear...

    It has only been with the willow that Kohli, despite blowing hot and cold, has found some saving grace. But, even that looked a bit different, thankfully for his own good, during India's six-wicket triumph over Australia in the 2nd T20I at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) on 6th December.
    Known for his discipline and orthodox strokeplay, Kohli rarely looks to experiment and tries to avoid taking unnecessary risks when wielding the willow. But, during India's chase of 194 runs at Sydney, Kohli, in a bid to accelerate the scoring rate, unleashed a shot that surprised cricket pundits and fans alike.

    Reeling at 123/3 in 14 overs, the visitors saw the asking rate reaching to 12 runs an over with Kohli and Hardik Pandya at the crease. With Andrew Tye running in to bowl the 15th over, the tourists desperately needed some big shots and the captain obliged. The Indian captain smoked an exquisite boundary on the second delivery of the over before playing an unorthodox shot a couple of deliveries later.

    Moving across the off-stump, Kohli bent down on one-knee, making full use of Tye's pace and scooping the ball over fine leg for a much-needed six. It was a shot that didn't just get the spectators at the SCG going, but also surprised the commentators who, like the rest of us, are used to seeing Kohli play orthodox shots.

    A short video of Kohli's experimental scoop was also shared by Cricket Australia (CA) on social media. The Australian cricket board asked fans to rate Kohli's shot in comparison to AB de Villiers who has made the expansive scoop shot his own, subsequently earning the moniker of Mr. 360.
    Though Kohli eventually perished for a 24-ball 40, Pandya got India over the line with a breathtaking knock of 42 runs. After securing an emphatic win, the Indian captain shared his thoughts on the scoop he played. "(The scoop) that was indeed an AB shot! I told Hardik, Tye wasn't expecting it and he said he didn't either. I'll text AB tonight, see what he thinks of it," Kohli said during the post-match interaction.

    But, before Kohli could drop a message to ABD, the South African batting sensation seemed to approve his Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain's attempt at the iconic shot he's been playing over the years. Responding to a widely shared video of Kohli's shot, De Villiers used a few emojis to laud his RCB teammate.

    With the three-match T20I series win secured, the Indian cricket will now seek a final flourish to whitewash the Australians when they take the field in the 3rd and final game in Sydney on 8th December.

    At the time when the schedule for India's tour of Australia was announced, the cricketing world had set their eyes on what promised to be a pulsating contest between two of the biggest powerhouses in international cricket. While some throwed their weight behind India to come good, others backed the Aussies to outperform the tourists playing in their own backyard.
    Early call ... I think Australia will beat India this tour in all formats convincingly ... #AUSvIND
    — Michael Vaughan (@MichaelVaughan) November 27, 2020 Amid all the predictions, there came one from Michael Vaughan who, after watching Australia post a mammoth total of 374 runs in the 1st ODI, put his neck out claiming that the hosts will beat India in all formats convincingly. "Early call...I think Australia will beat India this tour in all formats convincingly...#AUSvIND," the former England captain had tweeted.

    And, in all fairness, Vaughan wasn't wrong, at least in the ODI series. A heavy 66-run loss in the 1st ODI was followed by another 51-run loss in the second game for India who, despite their superior no. 2 rank in the 50-over format, looked like a shadow of themselves amid a mediocre bowling display and noticeable lapses in the field.

    Having already lost the three-match ODI series 2-0, India had nothing but pride to play for in the 3rd ODI - a game that saw them turning the tide in their favour. A reinvigorated vigour and changes in the line-up saw them securing a much-needed 13-run win in the dead rubber. But, what many thought was a mere consolation, eventually sparked a turnaround that changed their fortunes in the much-anticipated tour.
    © AP
    A 2-1 loss in ODI series proved to be a big wake-up call for India who woke up from their slumber to eke out a thrilling 11-run win in the 1st T20I before registering an emphatic six-wicket triumph in the second match. While the likes of Dhawan (52) and Kohli (40) kept India's run-chase on track at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), a Hardik Pandya (22-ball 42) special powered India to an emphatic win in the 2nd T20I, sealing their 2-0 series win with a game to spare.

    — Wasim Jaffer (@WasimJaffer14) December 6, 2020 The spectacular turnaround for India did elate a billion fans back home who were desperately looking for a reason to celebrate, but it also left Vaughan, owing to his far-fetched prediction, red-faced. Taking the opportunity to remind the England batting great of his lapse in judgement, Wasim Jaffer didn't need any words but a meme from popular Bollywood flick 'Gangs of Wasseypur' to deliver a message that was cherished by Indian fans on social media.

    All eyes were on India when they arrived in Australia for their much-anticipated tour. The two cricketing powerhouses colliding always makes up for a thrilling contest, but the turn of events in the three-match ODI series was far from what any fan would have expected.
    Losing two successive games by a decent margin, Team India was left with a lot to ponder over as the world no. 2 side was made to look mediocre majorly due to their own frailties. If the dreadful bowling display cut them a sorry figure, the fact that India looked miserable in the field further added to their woes.
    Oh dear...

    — Cricket on BT Sport (@btsportcricket) December 4, 2020
    Desperately seeking some redemption in the series, India did manage to bag a consolation win in the 3rd ODI. But, the poor fielding standards continued to follow India with Virat Kohli making an absolute mess of an easy catch in the 1st T20I. The Indian captain had dropped a sitter in the 7th over of Australia's chase as he failed to keep his eyes on the ball before spilling the chance to give D'Arcy Short a lifeline.
    Well, Short couldn't make the most of the extra life, adding a mere 16 runs before eventually returning to the pavilion, as Australia succumbed to a 11-run defeat. But, Kohli's misery in the field continued as he dropped another dolly in the 2nd T20I at Sydney. And, somehow, the Indian skipper still managed to have the last laugh.

    During the 8th over of Australia's innings, Wade was looking dangerous before he scooped Washington Sundar's length delivery towards cover where Virat Kohli made a mockery of a sitter, spilling the catch on two attempts. But, such was Wade's luck that, rather than watching the Indian skipper drop a dolly, the Aussie captain conceded it to be his downfall and didn't bother to return to the crease. And, unlike Wade, Kohli had some match-awareness as he fired in a throw at the striker's end to help wicket-keeper KL Rahul catch the Australian short at the crease.
    For poor Wade, it was a classic case of staying optimistic and not giving up which halted his marauding innings. Needless to say, cricket fans, mostly Indians, couldn't help but poke fun at the Aussie skipper on social media.
    That is comedy gold.. horrible cricket all round. 🤦‍♂️

It was his blazing knock that played a key role in helping Australia pile up a mammoth total of 194 runs. However, the likes of Dhawan (52) and Kohli (40) kept India's run-chase on track before a Hardik Pandya (22-ball 42) special stole an emphatic win for India in the 2nd T20I and sealed their 2-0 series win with a game to spare.

    Almost sixteen years ago, a 23-year-old MS Dhoni, on the back of eye-catching performances in domestic cricket, made his international debut donning the national colours for the very first time during an encounter with Bangladesh. But his Team India debut was a forgettable one as he got dismissed for a golden duck.
    But, scoring a mere 22 runs in his four matches for Team India wasn't the only problem for Dhoni. It was his unorthodox approach both in batting and wicket-keeping that got the purists wondering if he really belonged at the international stage. But, unperturbed by criticism, Dhoni stuck to his instincts and eventually broke the stereotypes of the gentleman's game.
    One major rule related to wicket-keeping or fielding, in general, is inertia. With the ball travelling to the fielder's hands at a rapid pace, a cricketer is expected to catch the ball and let it slide with the momentum for some time before resisting the motion. The idea is to absorb the momentum of the ball slowly in a bid to avoid chances of it popping out of their hands.

    While most wicket-keepers follow this tactic, Dhoni followed a completely different ideology. He believed in attacking the ball and throwing his hands at the stumps as quickly as possible. When he faced spinners, Dhoni moved his hand towards the ball and - without moving his hand back for even a second - guided it to the stumps. So what did he achieve by doing that? As noted in one of his stumpings, a reaction time of staggering 0.08 seconds - a world record that still stands tall.
    Today, at the age of 39, Dhoni might have called time on his international career, but his legend continues to live on as witnessed during India's six-wicket win against Australia in the 2nd T20I at Sydney on December 6. It was the 9th over of India's run-chase when Shikhar Dhawan momentarily lifted his foot in the crease as Matthew Wade whipped the bails off in a flash before going up in an animated appeal.

    "Not Dhoni, not quick enough like Dhoni!"

    — cricket.com.au (@cricketcomau) December 6, 2020 Australian leggie Mitchell Swepson had bowled a wide wrong-un which was missed by Dhawan as he went for a cut shot. Skipper Wade thought he had perhaps caught the Indian opener unaware but the replays suggested that Dhawan had planted his raised foot just in time to avoid a stumping opportunity. As soon as the decision was flashed on the big screen, Wade was caught on the stump-mic saying, "Not Dhoni, not quick enough like Dhoni", to Dhawan who responded with a smile saying, "No".

    Wade has an experience from watching this in Non-strikers end. pic.twitter.com/ed2Z4v5tpf
    — Cricket VIDEOPEDIA (@CricVideoPedia) December 6, 2020 Well, we can't really blame Wade for bringing the Dhoni comparison especially when he had watched the former Indian captain pulling off something in a similar situation from the non-striker's end. While Wade's comments surely left the commentators and, later, fans on social media in splits, he had another moment to forget earlier in the game.
    During the 8th over of Australia's innings, Wade was looking dangerous before he hoicked Washington Sundar's length delivery towards cover where Virat Kohli made a mockery of a sitter, spilling the catch on two attempts. But, such was Wade's luck that, rather than watching the Indian skipper drop a dolly, the Aussie captain conceded it to be his downfall and didn't bother to return to the crease.
