MSK Prasad said, "If Rohit and Kohli are serious about the T20WC, they should play immediately"
T20 International format. MSK Prasad, the former chairman of selectors and wicketkeeper, stated on Sunday that if both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have declared themselves fit for the T20 World Cup in June, then they need to be included in the T20I squad for the forthcoming series against Afghanistan. After the ODI World Cup, they were supposed to return to T20Is. India had matches against South Africa and Australia, but they missed both of those matches as well, which sparked debate over whether they would even play in the World Cup in June, which the USA and the West Indies would be co-hosting. If news about the ICC tournament in 2024 is to be believed, Kohli and Rohit have both committed to participate.

Manitoba has a ‘strong case’ to review carbon price in province: Kinew
Wab Kinew says that it is time to take another look at how the federal carbon price, popularly known as the carbon tax, is applied in his province.“I think that there’s an argument that Manitoba is maybe one of the strongest cases you could make, that the price on carbon should be revisited in our jurisdiction,” Kinew told The West Block host Mercedes Stephenson in an interview that airs on Jan. 7.“It’s definitely something that I know Manitobans would like to see some help with.

Canadian soldier explains why he’s returning to Ukraine’s eastern trenches
Ukraine.“I actually never had to explain it to them. My brother, when I told him — I was on a phone call with him and my sister — and he said something to the effect of ‘I can’t believe you’re not there already,'” the 40-year-old Toronto native says, speaking with Global News while on leave in London, England.“I never really had to give anyone a reason, and all the reasons I gave my wife, she accepted but was still upset about.”The last deployment of his 15 years with Canada’s military was as part of a task force in Europe helping Ukraine deal with Russia‘s full-scale invasion in 2022.But that support role wasn’t enough for Smith, who headed to Ukraine after resigning in March 2023.“You can’t wait for someone to go tell you to defend freedom anymore.

PM’s plane broke down in Jamaica during family vacation, requiring 2nd aircraft
Justin Trudeau to Jamaica for a family vacation had a maintenance issue prior to his planned return to Canada this week, prompting a second plane to be flown to the Caribbean island, the Department of National Defence (DND) said Friday.A spokesperson for the department told Global News the issue with the CC-144 Challenger aircraft was discovered during an inspection on Tuesday.A second Challenger carrying a maintenance team was then dispatched to Jamaica on Wednesday and “returned the (original) aircraft to serviceability,” the spokesperson, Andrée-Anne Poulin, said.“The (second) aircraft remained in the area as a back-up if necessary, and the Prime Minister was able to return on the original aircraft” on Thursday, Poulin said.The department did not say what the specific mechanical issue was.The Prime Minister’s Office declined to comment on the problem with the plane, referring questions to DND.The CC-144 Challenger planes were brought into service this fall to replace the military’s aging CC-150 Polaris fleet, which had been used since the 1990s. For decades, one of those Polaris aircraft was dedicated to transporting prime ministers and Canadian delegations, but was plagued with problems in recent years.In September, Trudeau was forced to spend an extra two days in New Delhi, where he had travelled for the G20 leaders’ summit, after the Polaris was grounded over a technical issue discovered during pre-flight checks.

Orphan Natalia Grace’s age finally proven, but new shocking twist revealed
The latest instalment of a docuseries exploring the identity of Ukrainian orphan Natalia Grace, whose adoptive parents claimed was actually an adult woman and terrorized their family from 2010 to 2013, has proven her true age but also left audiences with even more unanswered questions about the young woman.The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks is the follow-up to the 2023 docuseries that zeroed in on Natalia’s adoptive parents, Kristine and Michael Barnett, who were charged with multiple counts of neglect and accused of abandoning Natalia at a rented Indiana apartment in 2013 and moving to Canada.The Barnetts previously claimed that Natalia was not six years old when they adopted her in 2010, but rather said she was a 20-year-old sociopath who tried to kill them.Natalia, who has a rare form of dwarfism called spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita, has always maintained that she was indeed a child and was mistreated by her adoptive parents.Now, however, Natalia’s claims about her age have been proven.According to People, a DNA blood test, the results of which were revealed in the first episode of the series earlier this week, found that Natalia is approximately 22 years old — suggesting that she was 9 when she was adopted by the Barnetts.“This one little piece of paper throws every single lie that the Barnetts has said right into the trash with a match,” Natalia said in the premiere episode.“This is so big. Because literally, this has been 13 years of just two people lying their butts off.

JN.1 is Canada’s new dominant COVID-19 subvariant. Here’s what to know
COVID-19 subvariant, known as JN.1, has emerged and is now the prevailing strain across Canada, prompting health experts to caution that it may be more infectious and could even have extra symptoms.Currently, the subvariant makes up the highest proportion of all COVID-19 variants, accounting for more than half (51. 9 per cent) of all infections in Canada, according to the latest data from the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC).JN.1 was first detected in Canada on Oct. 9, and since then has rapidly increased.“If this virus continues to circulate at high levels, that means more virus, which means more mutations and more evolution, which means more of this same kind of issue happening repeatedly,” warned Ryan Gregory, a professor of integrative biology at the University of Guelph, and evolutionary biologist.On Dec.
