The Pakistani team was defeated by New Zealand in their opening match and by India in their second.

Despite being the hosts of the Champions Trophy, Pakistan has been eliminated from the tournament without securing a single win. The Pakistani team was defeated by New Zealand in their opening match and by India in their second. This marks a disappointing result for Pakistan, which had hoped for a better performance while hosting the ICC tournament for the first time in 29 years.

Following the loss to India on Sunday, captain Mohammad Rizwan admitted that Pakistan's journey in the ICC Champions Trophy had come to an end.

The team's underperformance has led to criticism at home, with questions being raised about the team selection, as well as the leadership of captain Mohammad Rizwan, and the performances of Babar Azam and Shaheen Shah Afridi.

Ontario Government Introduces Strict New Framework for Data Centres

The Ontario government has announced a new, stricter policy for data centres as demand for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure continues to grow rapidly.

Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre has launched a sharp attack on Prime Minister Mark Carney over the latest GDP growth figures, accusing his government of leaving Canada with the worst-performing economy in the G7.

He claimed Canada now has the lowest growth rate in the G7, the highest food inflation, the highest debt levels and the second-highest unemployment rate among G7 countries. The Conservative leader also alleged that inves

Trump says US will maintain ‘total control’ over Strait of Hormuz

U.S. President Donald Trump has once again claimed that the United States has “total control” over the Strait of Hormuz and said Washington intends to maintain that control.

His comments come as shipping traffic through the strategic waterway has dropped sharply. Only eight vessels passed through the Strait on Tuesday, compared with around 130 to 140 vessels per day before the war. Iran, meanwhile, says full maritime traffic through

Netanyahu rejects Gaza plan, says Israeli forces will not withdraw until Hamas is disarmed

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected a 15-point plan for Gaza proposed by the U.S. president, saying Israeli forces will not withdraw until Hamas is fully disarmed.

Netanyahu said Israel is in discussions with U.S. officials about the next phase of its strategy. He said some U.S. proposals are acceptable to
