    Former Australian cricketer sentenced in domestic violence case

    Former Australian Test cricketer Michael Slater has been sentenced to a four-year partially suspended prison term after being found guilty of domestic violence. However, having already served over a year in custody following a bail denial in 2024, Slater is now expected to be released.

    A partially suspended sentence means the convicted individual serves part of their jail term behind bars, with the remainder suspended under certain conditions.

    As per the details of Slater’s case, he faced seven charges, including two counts of choking a woman and sending her offensive messages. The court found him guilty on all counts.

    During the sentencing, Judge Glenn Cash noted Slater’s struggle with alcohol addiction, calling it a significant part of his life. “It is clear that you are dealing with a serious drinking problem, and addressing it won’t be easy,” the judge remarked.

    In April 2024, Slater collapsed in court after a Queensland judge denied him bail. Officers had to assist him in standing, after which he was taken into custody and remained behind bars for more than a year.

    During his cricketing career, Slater scored over 5,000 runs for Australia, including 14 centuries and 21 half-centuries. He also played county cricket for Derbyshire in England and later became a prominent cricket commentator.

  • PESF breaks silence after i8 says was ‘ignored’ for Asian Showdown

    PESF breaks silence after i8 says was ‘ignored’ for Asian Showdown

    The Pakistan eSports Federation (PESF) is once again in hot water as controversy brews over the exclusion of Team i8 eSports from the upcoming Esan Asian PUBG Mobile Showdown, which it says was done with national representation in mind and not affiliations.

    As per the details, the uproar began when PESF selected 4Thrives – a new team that includes former i8 players – over i8 eSports – a squad widely regarded as one of the most consistent and accomplished PUBG Mobile teams in the country.

    Team i8’s owner Shehbaz Mengal (Trynda) didn’t hold back and took to Instagram to voice his frustration. He said that PESF had “once again ignored” i8’s achievements and provided “no reasonable explanation”. Trynda also claimed that in the past, PESF had demanded sponsorship in exchange for tournament slots and even threatened to hand over i8’s spot to another team when refused.

    “Now, there was an invited event for Pakistan, and based on achievements, our team deserves to get the invite. If the players are changed, it doesn’t mean giving the slot to another team… PESF is very unprofessional. If it’s us today, it will happen to other teams tomorrow, and we will stay quiet no more.”

    Joining the protest, another top-tier team, 141 eSports, announced an official boycott of PESF. In a statement, the team accused the federation of “unethical behaviour” and “lack of transparency”.

    “Last year, PESF approached our owner for sponsorship in exchange for tournament privileges, threatening to revoke our slot upon refusal. This year, despite consistent performance and no roster changes, we were unfairly denied entry to a national event,” it said.

    Amid all the backlash, The Current reached out to PESF for an official response.

    “Just to clarify… the slot was officially allocated to PESF. After thoughtful consideration and discussions, a decision was made to form a lineup that we believe could best represent Pakistan on an international level,” a spokesperson told this scribe.

    “This team wasn’t selected based on club affiliations but with the broader vision of national representation in mind,” he added.

    The spokesperson also said that Team i8 must provide evidence that the slot was awarded to them and also substantiate the claims they have made on social media. “Team i8 should prove that this slot was indeed awarded to Asi8 and that PESF communicated to Esan that the team should be changed. If they can demonstrate this, we will allow them to participate in the event. However, they must prove the authenticity of the claims they have made on social media.”

    “Secondly, PESF is a sole entity, and after extensive discussions, we concluded that since this is a third-party tournament, we should select the team based on recent performances. The players announced were deemed the best at that time. It’s also important to note that this slot was allocated two weeks ago. Many things can be misrepresented on social media, and any manipulations will be addressed accordingly,” he added.

    This isn’t the first time PESF has faced such allegations. In 2024, Team i8 won both the national and regional qualifiers for the World eSports Championship (WEC), but PESF replaced them with 52 eSports without initially offering any explanation.

    Later, PESF claimed that i8 had a scheduling conflict with the PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC), but critics said the federation should have waited for PMGC group draws or allowed i8 to send a backup lineup. Trynda also alleged that PESF had attempted to limit i8’s branding and demanded sponsorships just for logo usage, raising serious questions about the federation’s conduct.

    While PESF has made its stance clear, it continues to face public backlash for not establishing transparent qualification criteria.

  • ‘Why do our heroines sound like children?’ Sarosh Ibrahim questions media’s obsession with infantilizing women

    ‘Why do our heroines sound like children?’ Sarosh Ibrahim questions media’s obsession with infantilizing women

    Digital creator Sarosh Ibrahim’s recent Instagram video has sparked a crucial conversation about the portrayal of women in Pakistani dramas.

    In one of her recent reels, Sarosh highlights a growing trend of female characters speaking in high-pitched, childlike voices and behaving in overly “cute” or timid ways. She called it part of a wider global pattern, where the entertainment industry compels women to gain recognition based on appearance, roles, and even how they sound.

    “Infantilisation of women in media, the little girl voice syndrome—you have seen it all around you,” she highlights, including in the video scenes from popular Pakistani dramas, including Meem St Mohabbat.

    She explains how the media frequently depicts female characters as weak, naive, and reliant on male guidance. “This establishes a stereotype that women are directionless and they need a man to guide them,” she adds. 

    Sarosh also links this pattern to deeper trauma responses, referencing global figures like Paris Hilton and Britney Spears—both known to have altered their voices early in their careers, reportedly a result of personal struggles.

    In the Instagram caption, she wrote: “Recently, I came across numerous tweets (do we still call them that?) debating the child-like voice and mannerisms of female actors in Pakistani dramas… Let me know if I should discuss them in my stories if interested.”

    The conversation quickly picked up. A user on X (formerly Twitter) pointed out how actor Alizeh Shah was recently trolled for having a naturally deeper voice in her Instagram reels. The user claimed that Alizeh had responded by revealing that many producers and directors expect heroines to use childish tones and mannerisms on-screen.

    Alizeh didn’t hold back and she reposted Sarosh Ibrahim’s video featuring the X post to her story with the caption, “Finally someone spoke.”

    In a follow-up story, she added:


    “The high-pitched voices, the baby clothes, the overdone shyness?? Is it just ‘cuteness,’ or something deeper? It starts to look like we’re romanticizing childhood in women…


    When we package adult women to look like little girls, aren’t we, in a way, feeding the very idea that fuels pedophilia? Maybe it’s time we ask…”

    Both Sarosh and Alizeh’s remarks have struck a chord with many online, especially those tired of watching strong female leads reduced to shy, helpless caricatures.

  • VIDEO: Obaid Shah slaps teammate Usman Khan

    VIDEO: Obaid Shah slaps teammate Usman Khan

    Multan Sultans’ fast bowler Obaid Shah accidentally slapped his wicketkeeper, Usman Khan, in a moment of emotional celebration during the 12th match of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2025.

    The incident took place at Multan Cricket Stadium, where the home team posted an imposing total of 228 runs in their allotted 20 overs. In response, Lahore Qalandars could only manage 195 for 9, handing Multan Sultans a comfortable 33-run victory.

    The unusual moment unfolded in the 14.5th over when Obaid Shah dismissed Lahore’s batter Kamran Ghulam. Overcome with excitement, Obaid turned to celebrate and, in a burst of enthusiasm, unintentionally struck Usman Khan in the face. The force of the slap knocked the wicketkeeper to the ground, leaving players and fans momentarily stunned.

    Footage of the incident quickly went viral across social media platforms, sparking a mix of amusement and concern among cricket fans. While it was evident the act wasn’t deliberate, many viewers noted the importance of players maintaining composure during high-intensity moments.

    Obaid Shah’s passionate celebration was likely meant to fire up his teammates, but it unexpectedly became one of the most talked-about moments of the match.

    Despite the mishap, Multan Sultans secured a convincing win, continuing their strong run in the tournament.

  • Pahalgam attack: Pakistan expresses concern over loss of lives in held Kashmir

    Pahalgam attack: Pakistan expresses concern over loss of lives in held Kashmir

    Pakistan has expressed concern over the loss of lives in Tuesday’s attack in the tourist hotspot of the Pahalgam area of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), which claimed the lives of 26 people.

    Media reports quoted police as saying that the attack, which left dozens wounded, occurred in the well-known summer tourist spot, Pahalgam, located about 90 kilometres from Srinagar.

    In response to media inquiries, Foreign Office spokesperson Shafqat Ali Khan said Pakistan was saddened by the incident and expressed sympathy with the families of the deceased.

    “We are concerned at the loss of tourists’ lives in an attack in Anantnag district of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir,” Shafqat Ali Khan said, adding, “We extend our condolences to the near ones of the deceased and wish the injured a speedy recovery.”

    As per media reports, among the dead are an Indian Navy officer and a Nepalese national. Some of the victims were from distant parts of India, including Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, and Karnataka. The attack is the worst of its kind in the region in nearly two decades.

    Pahalgam lies on the route of a Hindu pilgrimage to a cave shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva, the annual Amarnath Yatra, making it one of the most heavily protected regions of Indian-held Jammu and Kashmir.

    In a post on X (formerly Twitter) condemning the incident, India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was visiting Saudi Arabia at the time, said that those behind the heinous act would be brought to justice.

    “…Their evil agenda will never succeed. Our resolve to fight terrorism is unshakable and it will get even stronger,” he added.

    Congress leader and Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, while calling the attack “extremely condemnable and heartbreaking,” urged the government to move beyond what he termed “hollow claims” of peace in held-Jammu and Kashmir. “The whole country is united against terrorism,” he said.

    “Instead of making hollow claims of the situation being normal in Jammu and Kashmir, the government should now take accountability and take concrete steps so that such barbaric incidents do not happen in the future and innocent Indians do not lose their lives like this.”

    Meanwhile, in a post on Truth Social on Tuesday, US President Donald Trump said that India has the full support of the United States.

    “Deeply disturbing news out of Kashmir. The United States stands strong with India against Terrorism. We pray for the souls of those lost, and for the recovery of the injured. Prime Minister Modi, and the incredible people of India, have our full support and deepest sympathies,” he wrote.

  • Five litres of milk a day? Dhoni addresses claims about his diet

    Five litres of milk a day? Dhoni addresses claims about his diet

    Former Indian cricket team captain MS Dhoni, who retired from international cricket a few years ago, is currently playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) for Chennai Super Kings. He has also cleared up some funny myths behind his brilliant performances during a conversation with the media.

    Following an injury to the regular captain this season, Dhoni has once again taken on the team’s leadership responsibilities. He recently attended a promotional event where he made some interesting revelations about himself. When asked about the weirdest rumour he had ever heard, he responded with a smile: “That I drink five litres of milk every day.” The anchor, clearly surprised, clarified that it was indeed a false rumour.

    He went on to explain, “I might drink one litre throughout the day, but saying I drink five litres is way too much.”

    In a lighter moment, the anchor brought up another rumour claiming the star cricketer used to make lassi in a washing machine. He laughed and quickly replied, “No, I don’t even drink lassi.”

    According to reports, when Dhoni made his international debut in 2004-05, it was widely believed that his incredible energy came from drinking five litres of milk daily, a myth the cricketer has now officially debunked.

    Dhoni enjoys a massive fan following in India, with many still considering him a lucky and successful captain. Fans hope to see him lead CSK to more victories, just as he did in the past. However, this season has been challenging for the franchise, with the team currently languishing at the bottom of the points table, having secured just one win from eight matches.

    Renowned for his leadership skills, he has led India to numerous prestigious titles, including the World Cup and the Champions Trophy. Under his captaincy, Chennai Super Kings have also won the IPL title five times, cementing his legacy as one of cricket’s greatest leaders.

  • Matheus Cunha: The Rising Star Dominating Transfer News

    Matheus Cunha: The Rising Star Dominating Transfer News

    In the fast-paced world of football transfers, few names have generated as much buzz recently as Matheus Cunha. Known for his skillful play and impressive performances, Cunha has become one of the most talked-about players in the transfer market. As rumors swirl around his future, it’s clear that his next move could have a significant impact on both his career and the clubs vying for his signature. From top Premier League clubs like Manchester United to other major European teams, Cunha transfer news is dominating headlines.

    But what is it about this Brazilian forward that has caught the attention of so many? Why has Cunha become such a sought-after talent? In this article, we’ll take a closer look at his career journey, explore the transfer rumors surrounding him, and examine how an unforeseen Cunha suspension could potentially alter the course of his future.

     

    A Rising Star: Matheus Cunha’s Career Journey

    Matheus Cunha’s rise in football has been nothing short of impressive. The young Brazilian forward has showcased his talent across several top clubs, earning praise for his versatility, technical ability, and goal-scoring potential. But how did he get here? Let’s break down Cunha’s career journey.

    Born in Brazil, Cunha began his professional career at the renowned Brazilian club Corinthians, where he quickly stood out as one of the country’s brightest prospects. His move to Germany in 2017 marked a pivotal moment in his career. After joining RB Leipzig, he further honed his skills and soon earned a spot in the Bundesliga.

    Cunha’s first major transfer came in 2020 when he signed with Hertha BSC, a move that allowed him to play regularly in one of Europe’s top leagues. His performances in the Bundesliga were strong enough to catch the attention of clubs beyond Germany, and in 2022, Cunha made the move to Wolverhampton Wanderers in the English Premier League.

     

    The Transfer Rumors: Is Cunha Heading to Manchester United?

    One of the most exciting aspects of the Cunha transfer news has been the rumors linking him to Manchester United. The Premier League giants are always on the lookout for talent that can elevate their squad, and Cunha has been mentioned repeatedly as a potential new signing.

    But why Manchester United? The club is currently undergoing a rebuild under manager Erik ten Hag, and strengthening their attacking options is a top priority. With Cunha man utd becoming a frequent topic of discussion, many wonder how the Brazilian forward would fit into United’s system.

    Cunha is known for his ability to play across the front line, offering both pace and creativity. His skill set would complement United’s attacking style, providing an additional option in the final third. If he were to join Man Utd, it could mark a new chapter in Cunha’s career, one that sees him perform at the highest level in one of Europe’s most competitive leagues.

     

    What’s Next for Cunha: Other Clubs Interested in His Signature

    While Manchester United has been heavily linked to Cunha, they are not the only club in the mix. Top clubs from across Europe have expressed interest in the young Brazilian forward. The transfer rumors are not limited to England—clubs from Spain, Italy, and even France are reportedly monitoring his situation closely.

    For instance, clubs like Atletico Madrid and Juventus have been mentioned in various reports as potential suitors. Both clubs have been looking to strengthen their attacking options, and Cunha could provide the versatility and creativity they need. The competition for his signature is fierce, and it remains to be seen which club will land him.

    The question now is: where does Cunha fit best? With his style of play, he could adapt to the attacking systems at various top clubs. Cunha transfer news continues to evolve, and fans are eagerly waiting to see where he will play next season.

     

    The Unforeseen Setback: Cunha’s Suspension and Its Impact

    Not everything has gone smoothly for Cunha, however. Recently, he faced an unexpected suspension that has raised questions about how it might affect his transfer prospects. While the suspension was related to a disciplinary issue, it serves as a reminder that even the most talented players are not immune to setbacks.

    The timing of Cunha’s suspension is significant. As his name was circulating in transfer rumors, the suspension could impact his marketability and delay potential moves. Clubs that were previously interested in him may now reconsider their options or delay negotiations until the situation is fully resolved.

    While some might view this as a minor setback, it’s important to note how Cunha suspension could alter the transfer dynamics. Will it make clubs more cautious, or will they look beyond this incident and focus on his potential? Time will tell, but one thing is certain: Cunha’s ability to bounce back from adversity will be a key factor in his future.

     

    Conclusion: Cunha’s Future in Football

    As Cunha transfer news continues to dominate the headlines, it’s clear that the Brazilian forward is a player to watch in the coming months. Whether he joins Manchester United or another top European club, one thing is for sure: Cunha’s future is incredibly bright. His skill set, versatility, and experience make him a highly sought-after talent in the football world.

    The coming transfer window will be an exciting time for Cunha, as clubs battle for his signature and the young star looks to take the next step in his career. With his Matheus Cunha dates joining, marking significant moments in his journey, the next chapter promises to be even more thrilling. Will the Cunha suspension prove to be a minor bump in the road, or will it affect his transfer timeline? Fans and pundits alike will be watching closely.

    Whatever happens, the anticipation surrounding Matheus Cunha is only growing. His story is far from over, and the next move could define his career for years to come.

    Her journey from a young, aspiring boxer to a unified world champion is not just about skill; it’s about resilience, determination, and the ability to make strategic moves both inside and outside the ring.

  • Klaus Schwab Steps Down: What This Means for Global Elites

    Klaus Schwab Steps Down: What This Means for Global Elites

    Klaus Schwab, synonymous with the World Economic Forum (WEF), has been a key figure in global politics and economics. As founder and longtime chairperson of the WEF, his influence extended well beyond the Davos meetings, shaping global discourse on economics, politics, and corporate governance. So, when news broke of Schwab’s resignation, it sparked discussions on what this means for the future of global elites and world affairs.

    Schwab’s decision to step down has reverberated through international political and business circles. His leadership was crucial in positioning the WEF as a platform for dialogue between world leaders, policymakers, and influential business figures. The immediate implications of his resignation are significant, especially in a world where his vision of economic governance has influenced today’s interconnected global system. But what does this shift mean for the WEF, and how will it impact the broader network of global elites?

     

    Who is Klaus Schwab?

    Klaus Schwab, born in 1938 in Germany, founded the World Economic Forum (WEF) in 1971 to foster collaboration between business and political leaders on global issues. Over the years, the WEF has evolved into a major global institution, bringing together heads of state, corporate leaders, and thinkers to discuss pressing topics like climate change, inequality, and digital transformation.

    Schwab’s influence is immense. As the long-time leader of the WEF, he oversaw its annual meetings in Davos, Switzerland, where key decisions shaping global economics and politics were made. Under his guidance, the WEF became one of the most significant think tanks and networking platforms in the world, drawing the most powerful figures from across the globe.

     

    The Resignation: What Happened and Why?

    On April 21, 2025, Klaus Schwab shocked the world by announcing his resignation from the role of chairman of the World Economic Forum. After more than five decades of leadership, Schwab’s decision to step down was unexpected, leaving many to wonder what prompted this move at such a pivotal time.

    Though Schwab didn’t offer a definitive reason for his resignation, several factors may have played a role. Some speculate that Schwab felt it was time for a younger generation to take over and continue his work of shaping global governance. Others suggest that the shifting global landscape, including growing criticism of global elites and the increasing calls for reforms, might have influenced his decision. Moreover, Schwab’s advancing age and the evolving nature of the global challenges that the WEF seeks to address may have made him feel that the time for new leadership had arrived.

     

    What Klaus Schwab’s Departure Means for the WEF

    Schwab’s resignation raises crucial questions about the future direction of the WEF. For decades, he has been the figurehead of the organization, guiding its mission and goals. His departure means that the WEF will face a significant leadership transition, one that could alter its role in the world. The question now is: What’s next for the WEF without Schwab at the helm?

    The WEF’s future will likely see shifts in its approach to global issues. Schwab’s influence has been crucial in defining the WEF as a space for cooperation between governments, businesses, and civil society. It remains to be seen whether the WEF can retain its relevance and influence without the figure who built it into the global institution it is today.

     

    The Legacy of Klaus Schwab: Influence on Global Elites

    Klaus Schwab’s impact extends far beyond founding the WEF. He has shaped the conversations of global elites, particularly in economic governance, by creating a platform for the world’s most powerful leaders, CEOs, and policymakers to collaborate, often behind closed doors.

    Schwab’s legacy is also defined by his close relationships with key political figures, such as former U.S. President Donald Trump. His interactions with such leaders have sparked debates about the influence of business elites on political decision-making. Critics argue that Schwab’s efforts to foster global governance reflect a broader agenda to strengthen elite control over global policy.

    Additionally, Schwab’s net worth highlights his success and influence. Built through business ventures and his leadership at the WEF, his wealth places him among the most financially successful figures in the global elite. His connections have kept him at the top of the global economic hierarchy for decades.

     

    Klaus Schwab’s Wealth and Personal Style

    Schwab’s influence is not just political or economic; it extends into the realm of personal style and public image. Known for his distinct outfits at the WEF meetings, Schwab often made headlines not just for his leadership but also for his sartorial choices. His iconic looks, often involving tailored suits and a professional demeanor, helped solidify his image as a global power player.

    In terms of wealth, Schwab has long been one of the richest and most influential figures in the world. His net worth is a reflection of his years of leadership at the WEF and his involvement in a range of high-profile ventures. While the specifics of his personal fortune remain private, it is clear that Schwab’s wealth is tied closely to the success of the World Economic Forum and the elite circles he navigates.

     

    Conclusion

    Klaus Schwab’s resignation marks a significant turning point for the World Economic Forum and global governance at large. As the leader of the WEF, Schwab has played a pivotal role in shaping the conversations of global elites, influencing everything from corporate policy to international relations. His departure raises important questions about the future of the WEF and the broader landscape of global governance.

    The resignation may signal a shift in the way the world’s most powerful figures collaborate and make decisions. However, it is clear that Schwab’s influence will continue to be felt for years to come, even if he is no longer leading the charge. His legacy is secure, but the future of the WEF and global governance may look very different in the post-Schwab era.
