The first period was a tightly fought one with both teams matching each other toe to toe. Despite both creating a host of half chances, a few fell clear and they went into the break locked in a stalemate. The second quarter followed a pattern where India were happy to play on the counter, and pressed Australia regularly. In a somewhat ill-tempered quarter, Australia’s Dylan Martin was awarded the first green card of the game, giving India a man advantage....

“You are not a private entity. You are accountable and answerable. You are expected to act in a manner expected of a public body.

The 25-year-old comes from a sporting family; her mother played international cricket for India and her siblings are into sport as well.

Still, that hasn’t stopped indie developers and their fans from banding together, creating a viable alternative to repetitive and DLC-heavy mainstream releases.

Mojang, the company behind Minecraft, was independent until last September, when Microsoft bought the company for $2....

The Democratic-controlled House and Senate will have only 10 legislative days to meet the October 31 deadline to pass both the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill and a spending bill known as the Build Back Better Act - originally projected to cost around $3.5 trillion but is likely to be cut down to $2.2 trillion (or perhaps even lower) to get wider support - amid a standoff between progressives and moderates in the party over the scope and final price tag....

The stakes are huge. People 65 and up are holding some $5.2 trillion in wealth, says Robert Avery, professor of consumer economics at Cornell University. In around 10 years, when the boomers’ parents start to die, an unprecedented amount of property will be up for grabs. Thirty years ago, perhaps 15 percent of Americans were able to leave estates worth $50,000 or more in today’s dollars, Avery says. Now it’s 25 to 30 percent....
