The coronavirus pandemic has affected the whole world in an adverse manner and Hollywood is no exception to it. The release of many movies got delayed and the shooting was also brought to a halt. Tom Cruise starrer “Mission Impossible 7” also got delayed on account of the COVID-19 outbreak as in October, 12 team members tested COVID-19 positive in Italy. The work started again after a week and just two weeks ago, the crew has returned to UK.
The “Tog Gun” actor is quite stern in enforcing the COVID-19 guidelines on the sets and recently he scolded some of his crew members for not following them properly. As per a leading daily, an audio has been obtained in which Tom Cruise can be heard scolding two crew members after they were seen standing close to each other near a computer screen. Tom Cruise has warned them that if he finds them doing it again, they will be fired.
The actor adds that they are the gold standard and if movies are being made again in Hollywood, it is because of them. According to him, he is talking with studios, insurance companies and producers and everyone is looking towards them for making movies. He has also used some abusive words while speaking and added that thousands of jobs are being created because of them so he doesn’t want to see it again.
Tom Cruise was quite angry and asked the staff not to take undue advantage of the safe environment that had been provided to them. He further said that many people lost their homes and jobs and their apologies would not matter to him much as he would not be shutting down the movie because of them, instead he would fire them if they repeated it again.
It is being said that Tom Cruise goes on rounds and keeps an eye of those who are not following the rules properly. He has also spent £500,000 for an old cruise ship so that his team can isolate over there. MI7 is going to release on Nov 19, 2021, and the director of the movie is Christopher McQuarrie.
Tom Cruise is certainly correct as the COVID-19 guidelines must be followed in a proper manner. In fact, we all should ensure that we follow all the safety instructions so that the risk of infection can be minimized.

The Internet has become an integral part of our lives and Google can easily be called our support system. While we can search about anything on the largest search giant Google, Gmail gives us the facility to communicate with others and YouTube helps us in getting educated as well as entertained by watching videos. However, the biggest nightmare of the netizens turned true yesterday when various Google services including Gmail, Google Doc, YouTube and Google Maps stopped working.
In simple words, the world came to a standstill and many people felt that this is one more reminder that we are still in 2020. These are the times when almost everything is done online and the government is also focusing on making the whole country digital. Yesterday people came to know how much they are dependent on Google and its services and soon the micro-blogging site Twitter was flooded with memes and jokes in which the netizens expressed their annoyance or feelings regarding the outage of multiple Google services in a funny manner.

However, this has also started a new debate as many people think that India should work on creating its own search engine, video platform etc. just like China, Russia and other countries have done because over-dependence on other country’s system can be problematic in the future.
What is your take in this regard and how much you got affected with this outage?

The Indian cricket team will be playing 4-match test series against Australia starting December 17 and some players of the playing eleven will be selected on the basis of their performances in the practice matches.
Rishabh Pant, the young Indian wicketkeeper, was slammed recently by the netizens for wasting the opportunities that are given to him as he failed to score runs in the last practice match but in the day-night practice match which is being played against Australia A at the Sydney Cricket Ground, he has scored a century. Rishabh who was not included in the team for ODIs and T20Is made 103 runs for which he played only 73 deliveries.
The former Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has opened up on the matter of selecting Rishabh Pant or Wriddhiman Saha as a specialist wicket-keeper and he feels that Rishabh Pant will be a better choice in comparison to Wriddhiman Saha. Gavaskar talked about the test series between India and Australia which took place 2 years ago and said that Pant performed brilliantly in that series as he scored a hundred and after scoring a century in the practice match now, he should be the choice of management for the upcoming matches as well.
Two years ago, India played four test matches against Australia and Pant was the second highest scorer after Cheteshwar Pujara with 350 runs and his average was 58.33.
Sunil Gavaskar is of the opinion that it is not just about Pant’s batting performance but also because he knows how to trouble the Aussies by talking from behind the wickets. Sunil Gavaskar further states that one more reason for preferring Pant over Saha is the fact that the Indian top order is not very strong at the moment.
However, Sunil Gavaskar also says that on those pitches where ball not only turns but bounces as well and the keeper has to stand just behind the stumps, you need to play your best keeper who is obviously Wriddhiman Saha.
Who will be the better choice in your opinion for the Day-Night first test match which will be played with pink ball at Adelaide Oval – Rishabh Pant or Wriddhiman Saha?

There is no denying the fact that kids should be kept away from mobiles and tablets because it will not only harm their eyes but also demotivate them from playing outdoor games. However, the coronavirus lockdown was a different situation and parents were more concerned about stopping their kids from getting out of their houses so they had no other option than handing tablets and mobiles to the kids so that they could play games on it.
As per an article published in a leading USA daily, a six years old kid named George Johnson spent more than $16,000 (over Rs 11 lakh) on a game for buying add-on boosters and unlocking some characters without the knowledge of her mother Jessica Johnson who was working from home at that time. While Jessica was trying to control her expenses, George made various transactions in regard to the game Sonic Forces ranging from $1.99 to $99.99. It was 9th July when Jessica noticed that 25 transactions which amounted to $2500 approximately had been made with Apple and Paypal. She thought that it was some kind of fraud so she reported it to the bank.
By the July end, the amount increased to $16,293 but it was in October that the bank informed Jessica that no fraud has taken place, the transactions had been carried out by her and she needed to contact Apple for further information.
When Jessica contacted Apple, she was told about the transactions which were made in regard to the game Sonic Forces and it was then that she realized it is her six-yr son who is behind it. She asked Apple to reverse the transactions and Apple refused on the pretext that the refund period which is of 60 days had passed. It further added that she should have been aware of the setting which stops a user from making any purchases.
While talking to the leading daily, Jessica said that obviously she was unknown to the setting otherwise she would have never allowed her kid to spend such a huge amount on a game. She further states that these games are designed in such a manner that the kids want to buy things as no adult will spend $100 for virtual gold coins. She slams Apple and calls the organization Predatory, adding that her son had no idea that the money is real as he is playing a cartoon game which he knows is not real at all.
Though Apple and other manufacturers offer various parental controls in tablets and mobile, parents still need to be careful if they have given mobile or tablet to their kids in which details of credit card is saved.
Gaming is not always fun, sometimes it can leave you in debt just like Jessica so be more cautious!

Virat Kohli, the Indian skipper, has a great fan following and he is certainly an inspiration for many young aspiring cricketers. Virat made his debut in the year 2008 and since then, he has been instrumental in many important wins, the right-handed batsman has been termed as one of the best batsmen of the world and some of his fans call him Greatest Of All Times (G.O.A.T). Virat has scored more than 22K runs across all the formats which include 70 tons.
The Indian skipper is also very active on the social media platforms where he enjoys a huge fan base and he ensures that he interacts with his fans on a regular basis. In the coronavirus lockdown too, Virat used the social media platforms as a medium to communicate with his fans as he created awareness about the lethal virus and asked them to follow all the safety precautions. Sometimes, he also shared his special moments with Anushka on social media and there were moments when he also brought smiles on the faces of his fans. He also took part in Instagram live chat sessions with other cricketers including his Royal Challengers Bangalore teammate AB de Villiers.
Twitter India has released a list in which it has revealed that Virat Kohli has been mentioned the maximum number of times on Twitter in the year 2020.
Rohit Sharma who is India’s vice-captain in the shorter formats has secured the second position in the list. Hitman is the most successful skipper of IPL as his team Mumbai Indians has won the league five times including IPL 2020. The third position goes to the former Indian cricketer MS Dhoni who has taken retirement in Aug this year. He played in IPL 2020 and fans were very happy to see him back on the field; however, IPL 2020 was no less than a nightmare for Chennai Super Kings and Dhoni also got slammed sometimes for his decisions.
If we talk about the female sportsperson, Indian wrestler Geeta Phogat has been mentioned the most on the micro-blogging site. As far as the hashtags are concerned, IPL2020 and WhistlePodu have trended the most and Dhoni-led CSK is followed the most. Other than cricket, basketball, football and F1 racing are the most talked about sports of the year 2020.
Virat Kohli is also the highest ranked Indian in the list of top 25 influencers on Instagram as he has got the 11th rank while his wife Anushka Sharma is at the 24th spot and the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has secured the 17th position.
However, Virat Kohli is often trolled for not winning an IPL title even once despite the fact that he is a part of RCB since the inaugural edition of IPL in 2008 and has been leading the team since 2013.

Cricket is said to be gentleman’s game but things have changed over the time and sledging is pretty common nowadays. What is more worrying is that sometimes we also get to hear abusive language on the field and now an incident has taken place in which a cricketer has almost slapped another player of his team.
Bangladeshi cricketers who are presently busy playing in the 2020-21 Bangabandhu T20 Cup are pretty famous for their rude behavior on the field. Total five teams are taking part in this tournament which is being played for selecting the players for the 2021 T20 series that will be played between Bangladesh and West Indies.
After playing 20 matches, four teams have entered the play-offs and today (Monday), Beximco Dhaka and Fortune Barishal faced each other in the eliminator which was won by Beximco Dhaka that is led by Mushfiqur Rahim. However, what was noticed more was the irresponsible behaviour of Rahim and how he tried to hit his team’s player Nasum Ahmed when they both were running in for taking a catch.
In the 17th over of Fortune Barishal’s innings, Afif Hossain was looking in good touch, though his team needed 45 runs in 19 deliveries. Afif Hossain played a lofted shot in the air in the fine leg region and both wicketkeeper Rahim and Nasum ran to take the catch. Both the players collided but only after Rahim caught the ball and Afif had to return to the dug-out. However the skipper Mushfiqur Rahim lost his temper, almost slapped Nasum and also scolded him. Nasum seemed to be pretty afraid, the other players tried to calm down Rahim but he was still not getting silent.
Here is the video:
