The transition onto the clay courts has been positive for the Puerto Rican, with her winning her last two matches in straight sets....
To catch the uninitiated up to speed, Spidey uses a pendulum-like mechanic to give the feeling of forward momentum in Insomniac’s Spider-Man. Therefore, when players hold the bumper trigger to sling a web, Spider-Man begins a downward freefall, and if players release at the top of the pendulum arc, the hero is propelled out, gaining velocity. However, unlike various prior titles, zipping from point A to point B was improved with modern technology, as Spider-Man can seamlessly pull off tricks like flips, launches, and ziplines....

Beautiful, technically correct batsmanship is quite simply a phenomenon, wherein a batsman is able to match the viewer’s imagination of how a stroke should be ideally played and how the batsman should aesthetically look while playing the stroke. Over time, the sum collective of this imagination has come together to form the word “textbook”. A textbook cover drive, therefore, means that when the batsman completes the shot, his front foot should be well extended while his backfoot must have stayed rooted to the crease, thus bending his back knee; the bat must have “flowed” rather than been thrust forward from the backlift, to meet the ball just as it began to rise after pitching....

Cheaper than the premium X and Nex phones, the V-series is Vivo’s mid-range line, and the V20 is the latest – accompanied in India and other Asian markets by the V20 SE/Lite and the V20 Pro. A giant 44Mp selfie camera is the headline spec, making this one of the best selfie phones in the world, but it’s the astonishingly slim, high-end design that’s really made me fall for the V20....
The new mid-range Vivo phones combine OIS – now standard on the rear cameras of flagship phones – with a 44Mp sensor and flash module built into the phone’s frame near the teardrop notch. The result is a selfie camera that should be capable of high-res photos, 4K video, and top-tier night photography. Setting aside more outlandish solutions like the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra‘s rear-screen, or the upcoming Asus Zenfone 8‘s flipping camera module, this is so far the first dedicated selfie camera to use OIS to keep images sharp and stabilise low-light photography....
