Smith was removed from the captaincy after the 2018 ball tampering case. He was also banned for a year.

He said, “I will not make him captain. His time has passed. I would like someone else to be the captain. Smith should focus his attention on batting. It has nothing to do with the ball tampering issue in South Africa. I believe that now is the time to make someone else captain. ”

We will miss Ishant as he is the senior fast bowler of the team but bowlers like Umesh Yadav, Navdeep Saini, Mohammad Siraj, Jaspreet Bumrah and Mohammed Shami are all in the team and all these bowlers are experienced and know how to bowl under these conditions. is.

  • vivo X60 series officially arriving on Dec 29 with new Zeiss partnership

    The vivo X60 series finally has an official launch date – it is December 29. While we expect a vivo X60 Pro smartphone to be the first Exynos 1080 chipset, another partnership will also be announced on stage – between vivo and the German optical company Zeiss.

    The vivo X60 series is one of the last phones, expected in 2020. Not only it will be the first with Samsung’s newest 5nm chipset, but it will also bring OriginOS out of the box – vivo’s own revamped operating system, built on the Android kernel.

    Since the vivo X50 family had three phones, we expect a similar situation here. However, the poster has only two camera variants between the three different phones – obviously, the middle one is the regular vivo X60, since it lacks a periscope lens. If the vivo X60 Pro and the vivo X60 Pro+ have the same camera design (unlike the X50 Pro and X50 Pro+), probably the sensors behind the lenses is where the difference is.
