    24 hours after playing the new Call of Duty Battle Royale mode called Warzone, we managed to take some notes that helped us in getting that first win. While the basic concepts of any Battle Royale game remain the same, Warzone plays a little different than other Battle Royale games. For starters, the game has 150 players trying to survive, instead of 100  and offers more flexibility. Here are some tips you need to know even if youâve been playing Battle Royale games for a while. 

    1. Donât Quit After Dying  © Activision
    Even if you die when trying to survive, you still have a fighting chance to come back. Once dead, you will be transported to jail or a âGulagâ where you will have to fight to the death in a 1v1 match. If you are successful at killing your opponent, you will be redeployed in the game. Even if you do not manage to win in the gulag, your teammates can still revive you by collected $4500. When dead, you can direct your teammates to the nearest Respawn box so that they can redeploy you again. 

    2. Do Not Ping Enemies  © MensXP
    Call of Duty: Warzone has a nifty pinging system, however we advise that you do not ping enemies when you see them. Pinging enemies may help your teammates to locate them, but once pinged, your enemy also gets notified that he/she is being watched. Instead, we suggest you ping the general area where you see your opponent as it will help your teammates locate the enemy without giving away the fact that you're watching them. 

    3. Spend Money Wisely  © YouTube
    When exploring the map, you can pick up cash from the floor and dead enemies and use it to purchase equipment, a UAV and even a fellow dead teammate from âbuy stationsâ. We recommend getting a 'UAV' if you have enough cash, provided all your teammates are alive. You can use the UAV to spot your opponents on the mini-map which will give you a slight competitive advantage. If you are running low on armour, you can always buy the âarmour bundleâ to have enough inventory for future gunfights. If you have a lot of cash on you, make sure you purchase a self-revive kit that comes handy when you are taken down by an opponent. And finally, you can use the cash to redeploy your dead teammate which will let you get that extra hand when you need it most. 

    4. You Can Share Items and Money  © Activision
    Call of Duty: Warzone has a very simple inventory system where you do not have to sit and manage your inventory and instead spend more time looting and shooting. However, you can share ammo, tactical and lethal equipment and even cash. Sharing cash with your teammates can help them purchase better equipment. If your team has enough cash to bring back your dead teammate, you can drop the cash on the floor and pool all of it together to revive your teammates.

    5. Loadout Drops  © Activision
    Make sure you have your own loadout ready before you get into the game. In-game, loadout drops are quite frequent albeit random. Make sure you always get these drops and use your preferred loadout instead of weapons found on the floor. This is also the only way to use perks such as âGhostâ, âAmped upâ and others. Additionally, if the random loadout drop is not accessible, you can buy your own from the store and call it in yourself. These loadout drops can be accessed by a maximum of three people which also happens to be the strength of your squad. 

    6. Use Vehicles Only When You Need To  © YouTube
    The Verdansk map is massive and sometimes you need to use a vehicle to get to the safe zone. However, when using a vehicle, you are potentially a target for your enemies around you as your vehicle gets highlighted on the mini-map. If you are near the safe-zone, we recommend going on foot instead of a vehicle as thereâs a good chance somebody will see you. 

    7. Look For Gas Masks  © Activision
    Unlike other Battle Royale games, the gas in Warzone is extremely lethal and will kill you even if it's in the first phase. If you want to survive in the gas, make sure you find yourself a gas mask that can be found in loot boxes. The gas mask will protect you from gas damage and let you survive longer than usual. If you do not have a gas mask, always stay away from the gas as it will surely kill you.

    The deadly Coronavirus has claimed more than 4,000 lives globally, so far, and it is getting worse beyond our imagination.  
    In the first case of a noted celebrity being infected, veteran American actor Tom Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson have been recently diagnosed with the virus while they were filming in Australia.

    The actor was filming Baz Luhrmannâs untitled movie about Elvis Presley on the Gold Coast, when this development came to light.  
    He recently took to social media and confirmed the devastating report himself.

    He wrote, âHello, folks. Rita and I are down here in Australia. We felt a bit tired, like we had colds, and some body aches. Rita had some chills that came and went. Slight fevers too. To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the Coronavirus, and were found to be positive. 

    Well, now. What to do next? The Medical Officials have protocols that must be followed. We Hanksâ will be tested, observed, and isolated for as long as public health and safety requirements. Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no?â 
    Who could have imagined that out of all people, Tom Hanks would test positive with the virus? 
    Twitter is being flooded with people wishing Tom and wife Rita Wilson a speedy recovery.  
    This is so true. 
    I mean Tom Hanks is who would play the guy in the movie about Coronavirus

    For over 26 years and across two entire generations, the impact of Friends cannot be understated. Whether on a DVD set in the early 2000s or streaming services today, countless evenings have been spent by millions of people on its 236 episodes - not an understatement to call it one of the most successful television shows of all time, then. 

    So how does it hold up today? Interesting, to say the least. Perhaps itâs the era that the show captures or time itself, changing how we perceive television on a rewatch. Either way, thereâs a good number of inconsistencies that crop up while visiting the series, especially a good half-decade after you first discovered it. Here are a few of them.

    1. Living Life Sitcom-Class

    Friends is supposed to be a comedy of course, but looking at the gangâs apartments, thereâs a bit of fantasy at work. Living in Manhattan as you might imagine, is considerably expensive - the average cost of an apartment near âCentral Perkâ hovers somewhere around $4,200 or 3 lakh rupees. No spacey 1,500 sq ft apartment like youâd find on the showâs sets too - those could be twice as expensive.
    Sure, Monica has fortune on her side as she shares her home with Rachel, and it happens to be in her grandmotherâs name. Still doesnât do much to explain how Ross, Chandler and especially Phoebe and Joey get along, particularly in the earlier seasons when their careers were shakier.
    2. Permanent Vacation
    Imagine if you could let go of your responsibilities and work, spending time with your best friends in a cafe everyday? Sounds familiar to any Friends fan Iâm sure, and hereâs why this amazing thought doesnât add up. First, Monica. According to the New York Times, even culinary students out on internships in the city have it rough, working for ânine to eleven hours a day, five to six days a weekâ. 
    Considering that Monica eventually becomes a head chef for âAlessandroâsâ, a restaurant she works at from seasons 4-9, weâre sure that she realistically wouldnât have time for coffee shops. Those apartments wonât pay for themselves, Iâd imagine.
    3. Chandler Isnât Actually That Nice
    Bing fans might consider this heresy, after all - isnât everyone supposed to hate Ross by now? Sure, Ross isnât so innocent - weâll get to him in a minute. Curiously however, despite constantly winning polls for the publicâs âFavourite Friends Characterâ,

    He can be quite a bit scummy, breaking the bro-code with Joey when he kisses his best friendâs girlfriend in season 4âs âThe One Where Chandler Crosses the Lineâ. 
    4. Phoebeâs Dark History
    Sure, the Friends characters donât get to worry about rent, hang out all the time and always look great - but not everything is that positive and funny in the show. Despite usually being in a happy mood, Phoebeâs backstory is particularly dark and tragic - the character not only grew up in poverty, but was abandoned at the age of fourteen on the streets when her father walked out - right before her mother commits suicide. Yikes. 
    What makes this even more tragic is how despite the years, Phoebe seems to carry a lot of this trauma with her - sometimes spontaneously bringing up the topic of her parents and homelessness, even to one-up Monica and Rachelâs problems.
    5. Joeyâs Lonely Ending
    âHow you doin?â is my favourite catchphrase from the show, and for understandable reasons - being Joey sounds like a lot of fun. The guyâs an actor, incredibly charming and hilarious to watch - in the first half of the entire show, his life takes the shape of a rollercoaster alongside Chandlerâs, as the two figure their way out through the twenties. Joey also happens to get lucky more often than anyone else in Friends - he sleeps with a total of 51 confirmed partners by season 10. 

    The sad thing is, through the years, Joey never finds someone he can stay with throughout. At the series finale, he remains the only person in the gang who isnât in a relationship, as Ross and Rachel get back together after Joeyâs brief time spent dating her.
    6. All-White NYC © NBC
    True, the show was also made in the 90s when representation in media wasnât as advanced as it is today, but just having two people of colour in ten seasons worth of episodes? That seems quite an extreme, and those two actors themselves agree - Actress Aisha Tyler, who played Rossâs girlfriend and Cosimo Fusco, who starred as Rachelâs boyfriend Paolo, have both addressed the showâs lack of diversity, branding it âunrealistic.â After all, New York City is one of the worldâs most diverse places in the world - even back in 2000, only 36% of the population was white - with the remaining divided between black people, asians and hispanics, as well as smaller minorities.

    After returning from one of their worst cricketing tours of all time against Kane Williamson and the New Zealand roster, the Men in Blue were looking to get some redemption time against the visiting South African side at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association stadium in Dharamshala.
    However, while the losing streak is a major cause of worry for Virat Kohliâs squad, there is yet another threat that looms over each and every player involved in the match: the coronavirus.

    With over 1,26,000 cases detected all over the world, 62 in India and 13 in South Africa, the players and the cricket boards of the two nations are justifiably worried about their health and wellbeing.
    Other than washing their hands with soap or sanitizers, under such circumstances, the players have been acknowledged of some of the major Dos and Don'ts that they must adhere to in order to maintain the safety of themselves, their teammates and their opponents.
    Donât Use Saliva To Shine The Ball
    © Twitter
    For decades now, bowlers from all over the world have been using their saliva for shining the ball which helps them get a swing in their deliveries. The bowler licks his hands and then rubs the ball with the saliva to do the needful. Obviously, this is a major cause of worry as everyone touches the ball while bowling or fielding and looking at how contagious the virus is, there should be an absolute ban on it.
    Donât Take Selfies With Fans
    © Twitter
    As cricketers in India, it is virtually impossible for them to not get surrounded by fans and spectators in public. Without the knowledge of where these fans come from and with whom had they met before coming to the stadium to watch the match, it is preferable for the athletes to refrain from engaging with the audience. 
    On Wednesday, the BCCI announced that the players ought to stay away from people who arenât staff members and gadgets and objects that do not belong to them.
    Donât Shake Hands With The Opponents
    © Twitter
    Cricket is a gentlemanâs game and shaking hands with your opponents before and after the match is a tradition which has been kept alive ever since the inception of the sport itself. However, given the circumstances, making such an exception is probably the best idea. 

    Both the BCCI and Proteas head coach Mark Boucher have also mentioned that theyâd keep away from the customary handshakes throughout their time in India.
    Do Have Medical Tests After Every Match

    As cumbersome as it may be, the cricketers from either side must undergo medical tests after every match regardless of them taking all the necessary precautions throughout game time and their stay at the hotels in Dharamshala and Lucknow during their three-match ODI series.

    On the night of Holi 2020, the fans of Indian cricket saw one of the most underrated cricketers in Irfan Pathan create magic on the pitch when he smashed 57 runs in just 31 balls and shouldered Sachin Tendulkarâs team, India Legends to victory against Sri Lanka Legends in a Road Safety World Series clash.
    What a knock @IrfanPathan #IrfanPathan #RoadSafetyWorldSeries #IndiaLegends pic.twitter.com/8eO5ib6Y4r
    â CricFit (@CricFit) March 10, 2020
    The pacer turned all-rounder, Pathan called it a career on January 4, 2020 as an Indian cricketer and has been busy as a commentator and an analyst of the game ever since. However, when he played for the Indian master blaster a couple of days ago, he not only won the game but also brought along a major flashback of how good he used to be as a Man in Blue.
    Irfan Pathan, World T20 winner, Champions Trophy winner, and the only man to take a hat-trick in the first over of a Test match, has retired from professional cricket.

    What's your favourite memory from his career? pic.twitter.com/13QmMCwhuN
    â Wisden (@WisdenCricket) January 4, 2020
    After the RSWS match against Tillakaratne Dilshanâs side, Pathanâs fans took over the internet, making memes about the national team selectors and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) with the hopes of allowing Pathan a return to cricket.
    One fan even reached out to the BCCIâs official twitter handle and requested them to make the southpaw come out of retirement and play for India. 
    Dear @BCCI can't we ask @IrfanPathan to return back like @ABdeVilliers17 ??
    â महाराषà¥à¤à¥à¤°à¤ªà¥à¤¤à¥à¤° हरà¥à¤·à¤¦ HARSHAD MANE (@harshad2103) March 11, 2020
    However, Pathan himself replied to this fanâs tweet and absolutely broke his heart into tiny pieces:
    Haha too late I guess
    â Irfan Pathan (@IrfanPathan) March 11, 2020
    Irfan Pathan was, is and always will be the guy who took a hat-trick in his very first over against Pakistan during the 2006 Test in Karachi. For his then-captain Sourav Ganguly, Pathan went out of his comfort zone as a phenomenal bowler and converted himself into a sound all-rounder who could take care of things in the middle order.
    But injuries and a sudden lack of form (which many believe happened due to the then head coach Greg Chappell ) , made Pathan fall back deep in the rotation of talented cricketers who desperately wanted to wear that blue jersey. Pathanâs final appearance for Team India? October 2012, when he was just 27 years old.

    When the Vadodara-born made the announcement that he will be hanging his boots earlier this year, he made sure that heâd mentioned the biggest regret of his cricketing life: 
    "People start their career when they are 27-28 and then go on to play till 35. When I was 27, I had taken 301 international wickets, so that was it. That is the only regret I have," said Irfan Pathan in an interview with Star Sports. 
    "A 27-year-old Irfan Pathan, at the peak of his career, should have got more opportunities but it did not happen for whatever reasons. No complaints but looking back, there is regret, " he said.

    "I knew after 2016 that I am not going to make a comeback when I was the highest run scorer in Mushtaq Ali trophy. I was the best all-rounder and when I spoke to selectors, they were not very happy with my bowling," he added. 
    His career, cut-short by years by the selectors and the Indian cricket board alike, continues to be one of the biggest âwhat-ifsâ in the history of Indian cricket because if you think about it, nobody other than Hardik Pandya comes even close to the kind of talent and value Irfan Pathan brought to the table, and now we will never know what could have happened had that 27-year-old got the right kind of opportunities at the right time.
