IPL 2023: Cops recover bats, shoes and other equipment of Delhi Capitals players, David Warner reacts

[ad_1]
Although a couple of items are still missing, the Aussie opener expressed his gratitude towards the authorities for finding the items and catching the culprits.
They found the culprits. Few missing but still thank you,” Warner wrote in his post.
The incident involved the theft of 16 bats, along with pads, shoes, thigh pads, gloves, and other equipment belonging to the Delhi Capitals players. The players discovered the loss on the day they received their kit bags in their respective rooms in Delhi after arriving from Bengaluru.
The Delhi Capitals have finally secured their first win in the ongoing IPL 2023 season, defeating KKR by four wickets in a nail-biting last-over thriller. While David Warner’s aggressive batting during the powerplay was undoubtedly the key highlight of the match, there were several other notable performances worth mentioning.
Axar Patel, for instance, picked up two wickets while conceding just 13 runs in three overs, and also stayed till the end by scoring an unbeaten 19 runs to help Delhi finish the match. Kuldeep Yadav, Anrich Nortje, and Ishant Sharma also picked up two wickets each, restricting Delhi to a paltry total of 127 in their 20-over quota.

IPL 2023: ‘… Should have been an easy chase’, Warner asks DC batters to do better

[ad_1]
Bengaluru: After a 23-run loss against Royal Challengers Bangalore in an IPL 2023 match, the Delhi Capitals skipper said that the target of 175 runs should have been an easy chase for them but they lost wickets at the top, asking his batters to do better in the upcoming matches.
Virat Kohli sparkled with the bat with a breezy 50 off 34 balls to help RCB post a competitive 174/6. Vijaykumar Vyshak then impressed on debut with a brilliant spell of 3-20 and along with Mohammed Siraj 2-23 helped RCB restrict DC to 151/9 in 20 overs at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, here on Saturday.
“I said at the toss we needed to do all disciplines well, but we lost three early wickets and we didn’t chase down what should have been an easy chase. They (RCB) came out and started well with the ball, Siraj was outstanding,” said Warner at the post-match presentation.

The skipper was pleased with the bowling and fielding efforts of the team.
“The positives were good — bowling and fielding was exceptional, the energy we showed was great too,” he said.
It was the fifth consecutive loss for Delhi Capitals and they are yet to open their account in the ongoing season, lying at the bottom of the table. However, Warner feels the team can still bounce back as others have done in the past.
“Have to go back, we have five days off, have a hard look at ourselves, we need to do better with the bat and build partnerships at the top of the order. It is a matter of starting well with the bat. Teams have come back well from this position before and we can go on and do better,” the DC captain said.
On the other hand, it was the second win for RCB in four matches and they are in the seventh spot in the table. RCB captain Faf Du Plessis said that the win was important to get the confidence back in the group, especially for the bowlers.

“We needed that (win) to get the confidence back in the group. Especially the bowling group. Unfortunately, we’ve had to defend for a few games in a row now, and it’s not always easy at the Chinnaswamy. So very proud of them tonight,” said Du Plessis.
The skipper also felt that 175 was a good total as it was a day game and hailed his pacers.
“It’s the first day game of the season. Also the new rule now — you always feel you need more. 175 in a day game here is a good score. But with the new rule, there’s some uncertainty. It proved to be the right score. But the way we bowled in the first six overs, not only today – in all the games,” he said.
“Siraj set the tone beautifully. Generally, the first six overs are most important with the bat. You want to play positively and get ahead of the rate. The way we bowled was just unbelievable. Huge credit to our seamers in the first six,” he added.

Creators can succeed elsewhere if TikTok is banned, Warner says

[ad_1]

Earlier this month, Warner, the chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, introduced the bipartisan RESTRICT Act, which would give the federal government power to restrict and potentially ban the app.
As for other platforms creators could transfer their skills to, the Virginia senator referenced the success of many YouTube users in turning a profit, as well as “other American sites” that “at least reimburse at a higher level” than TikTok does.
Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.), who also signed onto the RESTRICT Act, echoed Warner’s comments on MSNBC shortly after: “We’ve got other platforms, there are other platforms.”
The senators’ comments also follow a push by TikTok creators to oppose the ban during a Capitol Hill press conference Wednesday evening, spearheaded by Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.), the app’s first major ally in Congress.
When asked about potential threats from other social media giants that collect data on American users, Warner emphasized that laws pertaining to those sites also need reform — including Section 230, he said, “which frankly gives these American sites a get out of jail free card. … I think Congress ought to act on that.”
But TikTok’s Chinese owner ByteDance poses too much of a threat to wait, Warner said. “As chairman of the intelligence committee, I believe TikTok poses a national security threat, and before all the potential bad action takes place, we ought to act.”

Warner and Rubio together call for document oversight for national security

[ad_1]

Sets of documents found last year at Trump’s residence in Mar-a-Lago and at locations associated with Biden in the past several months included classified material, and Rubio and Warner (D-Va.) said they had a right to know the content to the extent that it could affect national security.
The most immediate issue is determining whether the Trump and Biden documents contained sources and methods for gathering intelligence, or even if they were current enough to pose a threat to national security, Warner said.
“We are united in we have to find a way to do our job. That means we need these documents,” Warner said.
The members of Congress are not interested in individual criminal justice matters, Rubio said.
“We’re not interested in the timeline, the tick-tock, the who-got-what, who-did-that,” he said.
And as members of Congress who have access to classified materials, the senators might already have access to the specific documents, but they “just don’t know which ones they are,” he added.
While Warner acknowledged Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines is in charge of classification issues, he said Congress could take broad action by writing guidance on classification for executive agencies.
Rubio said he’d prefer not to “go down that road” of withholding funds from agencies involved. But, he added: “We’re not going to sit here and just issue press releases all day.”

As for the classified documents turned over from former Vice President Mike Pence’s home, Warner said: “We’ve not really focused as much on the Pence documents, but who knows what additional shoes may fall.”
