The Asia Cup 2025 faces fresh uncertainty as India has warned of boycotting the tournament if Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi skips the ICC Annual General Meeting in Singapore and opts for virtual participation instead.
Currently, PCB Chief Operating Officer (COO) Sameer Ahmed Syed is representing Pakistan at the AGM, which is being held from July 17 to 20 in Singapore, alongside representatives from major Asian cricket boards.
This year’s meeting holds particular significance as it marks the debut of ICC Chairman Jay Shah, who recently assumed office, and will preside over the meeting.
However, tensions have escalated after Naqvi decided to participate virtually from Pakistan, especially following his decision to schedule a separate Asian Cricket Council (ACC) meeting in Dhaka — a move that has drawn criticism from India, along with Afghanistan, Oman, and Sri Lanka.
Indian media reports suggest that any decision at the Dhaka meeting in the absence of India, Afghanistan, Oman, and Sri Lanka will be considered insignificant.
The core of India’s demand revolves around a change in the venue for the upcoming ACC meeting, with the tournament’s future reportedly hinging on this alteration. However, sources close to the ACC indicate that Naqvi remains resolute in his decision not to change the meeting venue.
The Asia Cup is tentatively scheduled for September in the T20 format, with India set to host the tournament.
Speculations about India potentially withdrawing from the tournament due to heightened tensions had previously circulated, but Shah, who previously served as secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), has dismissed such reports.
In an attempt to de-escalate the situation, the ACC has offered member countries the flexibility to participate in the Asia Cup meeting online if direct attendance is not feasible.
Despite this concession, the threat of a full-blown Asia Cup boycott looms large, raising concerns about the immediate future of one of cricket’s most anticipated regional tournaments.
The Day Mars Died – 60th Anniversary of Mariner 4 – YouTube
Watch On
On Episode 169 of This Week In Space, Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik are joined by Rob Manning, JPL’s Chief Engineer Emeritus, to look back at the Mariner 4 Mars mission 60 years later.
Six decades ago this week, the Mariner 4 probe sped past Mars, the first to succeed in this then-brash undertaking. The technology was unbelievably primitive, yet effective, sending back 22 low-resolution video frames of the Red Planet. On that day, the wee hours of July 15 at JPL in Pasadena, the Mars of the romantics died. What had long been viewed as a slightly colder, somewhat drier, near-twin of Earth ended up having just a trace of an atmosphere and looked more like the moon–bone dry and pummelled by craters.

‘Zombies’ stars get honest about how they fared in franchise
Milo Manheim and Meg Donnelly were 16 when they appeared in Zombies. Now, years later, the duo looked back at the start of the franchise as they promote the upcoming Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires.
In a chat with People, the 24-year-old, who plays Zed, shared his observation about his co-star over the years, “I think that Meg has grown a lot more confident throughout these years.”
Agreeing with him, Meg said, “I was gonna say your confidence!” Leading to Milo expanding on his thoughts, saying, “We were really trying to fit in, you know, the first movie. And then I think [at] this point, both of us are really kind of setting the vibe [on set].”
“We’ve taken that responsibility, and I think we’ve set a pretty good vibe on set,” he noted.
Meg, who plays Addison in the musical horror franchise, said, “We’ve grown so much since then. We met when we were like 16. It’s been almost 10 years, so that’s been like all the crazy milestones of a young person’s life.”
Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires is available on Disney+.
Irish golfer Shane Lowry said he feared being “slaughtered” on social media if he did not accept the two-stroke penalty he received at The Open Championship on Friday.
The 38-year-old triumphed the last time the major was hosted at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland but saw his hopes of repeating that 2019 success dented by an incident during the 12th hole of his second round.
The R&A – the body which organizes the tournament – deemed Lowry’s ball to have moved after his club touched nearby foliage during a practice swing for his second shot from the rough on the par-five hole, with broadcast cameras capturing the moment.
After a lengthy review of roughly 20 minutes, the world No. 18’s ball was judged to have moved in a “clear” manner discernible to the naked eye, the R&A said in a statement. That incurred a one shot penalty, with another stroke docked for the ball subsequently being played from the wrong place.
Lowry, whose overall score jumped from two-under to even-par as a result, said he would have called the penalty on himself had he seen the ball move, adding that he was “disappointed” there were not more camera angles of the incident, specifically a full-length shot of him.
“I told them I definitely was looking down towards the ball as I was taking that practice swing, and I didn’t see it move,” said Lowry, who ultimately signed for a double bogey on the 12th hole and a one-over 72 second round following the penalty.
“I’m still not sure, to be honest, whether it was or not, but I had to take the penalty because I can’t have my name talked about or tossed around like that, and I just get on with it.”
Asked whether the ruling felt unfair, Lowry replied: “A little bit … (but) if the ball moved and I caused it to move and it moved, it’s a two-shot penalty.
“The last thing I want to do is sit there and argue and not take the penalty and then get slaughtered all over social media tonight for being a cheat.”
Lowry found sympathy from playing partner and tournament leader Scottie Scheffler who, having joined the Irishman for the footage review, said his counterpart had been put in a “tough situation” but refrained from commenting on whether he agreed the penalty was deserved.
“From what I looked at very briefly on the video, it looked like it was very difficult to see if the ball moved. The camera was kind of zooming in as stuff was happening,” said Scheffler after his 64 put him in the driving seat heading into the weekend.
“He handled it really well. It’s obviously very frustrating. It’s frustrating for me as a competitor of his and a player to watch him deal with that because the last thing you want to be known (for) in the game of golf is somebody who cheats.”
Former Ryder Cup captain and Lowry’s Irish compatriot Paul McGinley said that while he understood the R&A’s decision, there needs to be “a little bit more leeway” in how its rulings are applied.
“It is the rules, technically. It’s a bit like VAR (video assistant referee) and soccer, when somebody’s toenail is past the line, it’s offside,” McGinley told Sky Sports.
“It’s very frustrating. I watched that live and I didn’t notice anything and Shane didn’t notice anything. The R&A had to apply it because it was proved in slow motion, but it’s difficult, and it’s very harsh. It’s an outdoor sport, you’ve got long grasses, you’ve got wind, you’ve got weather conditions, you’ve got rain yesterday, there’s got to be a little bit of a leeway.”
“Whether it’s on the local golf club at home or whether it’s playing in The Open Championship, the onus should be on the player,” he added. “That’s something that’s great about our game and I want to keep going down that road.”
‘Onwards and upwards’
With Lowry informed of the possibility of a two-shot penalty by a rules official as he walked the 15th fairway, his immediate goal switched from a push up the leaderboard to a fight for survival.
A subsequent birdie and a closing run of pars ensured the three-time PGA Tour winner ultimately finished one shot above the cut line, safely through to the weekend but 10 shots adrift of world No. 1 Scheffler.
Though after watching the American up close, Lowry is not convinced two additional shots would have significantly bolstered his chances of lifting a second Claret Jug come Sunday.
“Eight shots behind Scottie Scheffler isn’t in the fringes of contention the way he’s playing,” said Lowry, who dropped from a share of 17th to tied-34th following the penalty.
“I played great on the way in, hit some nice shots … It’s a disappointing thing to happen to me, but that’s golf. Onwards and upwards and give it a run this weekend.”
Building a spacecraft could one day be as simple as folding a piece of paper into a plane and letting aerodynamics do the rest. A team of researchers from the University of Tokyo simulated the release of a paper airplane from the International Space Station (ISS) to see if would survive atmospheric reentry.
In a paper published in Acta Astronautica, the researchers demonstrated how origami may be the solution to low Earth orbit’s growing trash problem. Rather than relying solely on metals to construct spacecraft, the team behind the paper argues that a standard sheet of paper could do the job instead and easily burn up in the atmosphere during reentry. For their study, the researchers created a paper plane with an aluminum tail and placed it in a wind tunnel to see how it would fare in space. The idea is simple, and it aims to show how organic materials can be used to create a more sustainable orbital environment.
The origami space plane is made from a sheet of uncoated A4 printing paper, with folded layers at the nose to shift its center of mass upstream and ensure aerodynamic stability. “Such spacecraft have not yet flown in space,” the paper reads. “It is unclear whether their flight dynamics in the highly rarefied atmosphere in [low Earth orbit] would be similar to those of a usual ground-based origami plane, and whether the plane would survive or burn up during atmospheric entry.” Of course, the entire spacecraft wouldn’t be made solely of paper. Instead, specific components—like a wing or drag sail—could be constructed from paper-based materials.
To test it out, the researchers first created a simulation of the paper plane being launched from the ISS at an altitude of 248 miles (400 kilometers) and a speed of 17,448 miles per hour (7,800 meters per second). The paper plane remained stable and glided through the space-like conditions. It began to tumble at a lower altitude of 74 miles above Earth’s surface (120 kilometers) and spun out of control. The tumbling motion is expected at this altitude, and the severe aerodynamic heating would result in the paper plane burning up in the atmosphere at around 55 to 58 miles (90 to 110 kilometers) altitude, according to the paper.
The researchers then placed a physical model in the Kashiwa Hypersonic and High Enthalpy Wind Tunnel at the University of Tokyo to see how it would hold up during reentry conditions. They subjected it to Mach 7 speeds for about seven seconds, during which the plane’s nose bent and the wings showed signs of charring. It didn’t fully disintegrate, though, but it most likely would have had they kept it in there for a longer period of time, the researchers said.
Upon atmospheric reentry, traditional spacecraft leave behind metallic particles and chemicals that damage the ozone layer. The paper plane, on the other hand, is made of organic material that doesn’t pose an environmental threat. Still, there are some challenges that remain. Considering how small the paper plane is, it does not reflect radar strongly enough and would be hard to track in orbit. The researchers suggest equipping it with a miniaturized position, navigation, and timing transceiver. It’s also extremely sensitive to aerodynamic drag and therefore can only spend so much time in orbit, so it can be used for short-duration missions with small payloads.
The origami space plane will likely not be a good fit for a wide range of missions, but the researchers suggest a version of it could be used as a passive probe to measure atmospheric density or as a platform for low-cost and short-lived missions in low Earth orbit. “Owing to the extremely low cost of a paper space plane, multiple deployments could be conducted at the same time, and repeated at regular intervals, providing simultaneous distributed measurements,” the scientists explained in their paper.
The idea of a childlike space plane gliding through the atmosphere may seem too simple, but using paper on spacecraft could help us resolve the overpopulation of metal crowding low Earth orbit and disintegrating into chunks of space scrap.
It is said that T20 cricket is a game of bold strokes and calculated risk, and on Friday night, it was Guyana Amazon Warriors who struck the perfect balance of both, as they toppled defending champions Rangpur Riders by 32 runs to win the second edition of the Global Super League (GSL) T20 tournament at the Providence Stadium.
It was a finale defined by contrasting batting styles, a mix of explosive hitting and calculated stroke play, and a complete bowling display that showcased Guyana’s depth and composure under pressure.
The victory was set up by a competitive first-innings total of 196-4, highlighted by a dazzling second-wicket stand between Johnson Charles and Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who put on 121 runs from just 70 deliveries.
Scores: Guyana Amazon Warriors 196-4 (20 overs); Rangpur Riders 164 all out (19.5 overs)
Charles, known more for his flamboyant stroke play, was steady and precise in his approach before he retired out on 67 off 48 balls, which included 11 fours and a six. Gurbaz, in contrast, blazed his way to 66 from 38 balls, as he sent six deliveries to the fence and four over it in an innings that oozed intent and aggression.
Though Evin Lewis (five) fell cheaply, and Shimron Hetmyer (zero) never got going, the late fireworks were provided by Romario Shepherd, who slammed three sixes and a four in an unbeaten nine-ball 28. Sherfane Rutherford also played his part with a run-a-ball 19 to give Guyana the final flourish that took the total close to the 200-run mark.
In response, Rangpur Riders—who had been unbeaten heading into the final—crumbled under scoreboard pressure. Their chase was undone early, as they slumped to 32-3 inside the powerplay, thanks to a sharp run-out from Imran Tahir and early strikes by Dwaine Pretorius and Moeen Ali.
A brief recovery was mounted by Saif Hassan, who made 41 off 26, and Iftikhar Ahmed, with a 29-ball 46, as they stitched together a 73-run stand for the fourth wicket. But once Saif was run out in the 13th over, it triggered a devastating collapse, and Rangpur slid from 102-3 to 126-8 in a matter of 27 balls.
Mahidul Islam Ankon smacked a quickfire 30 from 17 balls, but the gap was too wide, and the defending champs were eventually bowled out.
Pretorius finished with 3-37, including the key wickets of Iftikhar and Omarzai (three), while Imran Tahir, ever the magician, grabbed 2-39 to keep the pressure on. Gudakesh Motie (2-32) also chipped in with wickets in the death overs.
This win marks a special chapter for the Amazon Warriors, who were runners-up in last year’s Caribbean Premier League (CPL) T20 competition, but now sit atop the GSL throne.
TOKYO – Japanese voters could unleash political turmoil as they head to the polls on July 20 in a tightly contested Upper House election, with rising prices and immigration concerns threatening to weaken Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba’s grip on power.
Opinion polls suggest Mr Ishiba’s Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and coalition partner Komeito may fall short of the 50 seats needed to retain control of the 248-seat
Upper House of Parliament
in an election where half the seats are up for grabs.
The polls show smaller opposition parties pushing for tax cuts and increased public spending are set to gain, among them
the right-wing Sanseito
, which vows to curb immigration, oppose foreign capital inflows and reverse gender equality moves.
A poor showing by the coalition could shake investor confidence in the world’s fourth-largest economy and disrupt critical trade talks with the United States, analysts said.
Mr Ishiba may have to choose between making way for a new LDP leader or scrambling to secure the backing of some opposition parties with policy compromises, said Mr Rintaro Nishimura, an associate at the Asia Group in Japan.
“Each scenario requires the LDP and Komeito to make certain concessions, and will be challenging, as any potential partner has leverage in the negotiations.”
After the election
Japan faces a deadline of Aug 1
to strike a trade deal with the US or face punishing tariffs in its largest export market.
Such import levies could squeeze the economy and further pressure the government to give financial relief to households already reeling from inflation, such as a doubling of rice prices since 2024.
With an eye on a jittery government bond market, the LDP has called for fiscal restraint, rejecting opposition calls for major tax cuts and welfare spending to soften the blow.
Mr Ishiba’s administration lost its majority in the more powerful Lower House in October.
As the LDP’s worst showing in 15 years, the outcome roiled financial markets and left the Prime Minister vulnerable to no-confidence motions that could topple his administration and trigger a fresh general election.
Ruled by the LDP for most of the post-war period, Japan has so far largely avoided the social division and fracturing of politics seen in other industrialised democracies.

A real elephant can curl its trunk around a flower yet balance five tons on sturdy legs. That astonishing range of motion and strength inspired engineers at EPFL, who have now designed and printed a robot they call “EleBot” that does both tricks with a single, programmable 3D‑printed foam lattice.
The study comes from the Computational Robot Design and Fabrication (CREATE) Lab. Lead author Qinghua Guan and his colleagues created this elephant‑shaped testbed that swaps multiple plastics for one clever structure.
Making an elephant robot (EleBot)
Biological tissues cover seven orders of magnitude in stiffness, from fat under 1 kilopascal to cortical bone near 30 gigapascals.
Robots usually fake that spectrum by printing layer after layer of different polymers, a slow and costly route with abrupt transitions that tear under load.
The CREATE team instead tunes stiffness geometrically. Each cell in their EleBot lattice morphs between a body‑centered cubic lattice and an X‑cube shape, two motifs whose beam angles control how easily they bend or resist shear.
“We used our programmable lattice technique to build a musculoskeletal‑inspired elephant robot with a soft trunk that can twist, bend, and rotate, as well as more rigid hip, knee, and foot joints,” said Guan.
By sliding smoothly from flexible to stiff, the trunk can pick a 0.1 millimeter wire or lift a 1 pound weight without swapping materials.
Shaping robot foam
A single four cell cube can be arranged in roughly 4 million unique ways; add one more cell and the search space tops 75 million.
That variety comes from two “programming dimensions”: altering each cell’s shape along the BCC–X‑cube spectrum and rotating or shifting cells so their beams overlap in novel patterns.
Other groups have shown that offsetting the central struts of a BCC foam boosts energy absorption twofold.
EPFL’s approach bundles those insights into a single design framework, so stiffness, anisotropy, and connectivity can be dialed up or down like RGB sliders in graphics software.
The team’s printed cubes span 20-280 kilopascals in Young’s modulus, crossing the gap between soft tissues and firm cartilage. Yet every part is the same silicone‑based resin, slashed into airy struts that keep weight low.
Building EleBot with one foam
To show practical value, the researchers built three tendon‑driven modules. A gradient trunk uses softer lattice at the outer radius and stiffer beams inside so a single cable can bend it 70 degrees with no kinks.
A uniaxial “knee” bends 50 degrees thanks to double stacked X‑cube cells acting as ligaments around a quadruple stacked, rock solid core.
A biaxial “ankle” swaps orientations to give 40 degrees of tilt in any direction while blocking unwanted twist.
EPFL researchers have pioneered a 3D-printable, programmable lattice structure for robotics that mimics the vast diversity of biological tissues – from a flexible trunk to rigid bone – using a single foam material.

Soft robot specialists previously needed vacuum jamming bags or dense networks of pneumatic chambers to match such multimodal motion.
The foam lattice hits that versatility with four off the shelf hobby servos and a handful of fishing lines.
Robot foam helps beyond elephants
Lightweight, hollow lattices shed drag in water and air, a major plus for drones or underwater rovers. NASA has already tested reconfigurable truss metamaterials for space habitats that combine high stiffness with self assembly.
Programmable lattices can also house wires, microfluidic channels, or embedded sensors without drilling holes. That integration could lead to artificial limbs where muscles, nerves, and bones grow from the same print job.
A recent review argues that geometry based metamaterials outperform multi-material blends when designers need on the fly tuning. EPFL’s foam validates that thesis at device scale, bridging academic theory and field robots.
Elephant robots with smarter foam
Guan’s group is already thickening beam walls to push stiffness into the megapascal range required for load bearing exoskeletons.
They also plan to impregnate the open cells with conductive ink so the structure senses strain, turning the lattice itself into a nervous system.
“Like honeycomb, the strength to weight ratio of the lattice can be very high, enabling very lightweight and efficient robots,” added Benhui Dai, EPFL doctoral student.
Future versions could swap silicone for recyclable thermoplastics or biodegradable corn starch resins, shrinking the environmental footprint of large scale prints.
The CREATE lab has released its design code as open source, meaning hobbyists could print lattice toys on consumer SLA printers this year.
If that happens, the line between soft toys, compliant grippers, and walking machines may blur faster than expected.
EleBot, foam, and future elephant robots
EleBot itself is more demonstrator than safari attraction, standing under 2 feet high. Even so, its trunk can wrap a daisy without bruising petals, and its legs can kick a bowling ball, two feats rarely seen in the same machine.
By showing that geometry, not chemistry, can give foam both tenderness and grit, EPFL hints at a future where a warehouse of single material filament is enough to build factory cobots, medical devices, and disaster response bots on demand.
Nature spent millions of years evolving mixed tissue; engineers might catch up with a million printable cells.

DUBAI, July 19, 2025 – The UAE Dirham maintained its position at 77.57 Pakistani Rupees during Saturday’s trading session at 6:57 PM PKT, matching the previous day’s closing rate according to verified market data from interbank and retail currency exchanges.
AED to PKR- LATEST UPDATES
The stable rate continues the Dirham’s solid performance trajectory established in June 2025, when the currency appreciated by 0.81 PKR from 76.44 at month-start to 77.25 by June-end, reaching a monthly high of 77.6111 PKR on July 1.
1 UAE Dirham= 77.57 Pakistani Rupee
Currency Fundamentals and Market Positioning
The UAE Dirham, introduced as the Emirates’ official currency in 1973, operates under a fixed exchange mechanism tied to the US Dollar at 3.6725 AED per USD, supervised by the UAE Central Bank. This dollar-peg arrangement provides exchange rate predictability, supporting the currency’s role in regional trade and international investment flows across the seven-emirate federation.
Pakistan’s Rupee, serving as the national currency since 1948, functions under managed float conditions administered by the State Bank of Pakistan. The PKR’s valuation responds to domestic economic indicators, international market conditions, and regional developments affecting Pakistan’s financial position.
Cross-Border Financial Flows and Economic Implications
The sustained AED-PKR exchange rate supports ongoing economic ties between both nations. Pakistani workers in the UAE continue benefiting from favorable remittance conversion rates, with the Emirates contributing $717.2 million in June 2025 worker transfers, maintaining its status as Pakistan’s second-largest remittance source after Saudi Arabia, per central bank statistics.
These inflows provide essential foreign currency support for Pakistani households while stimulating domestic consumption patterns. Conversely, the elevated exchange rate affects Pakistani import costs for UAE-sourced goods, from consumer products to industrial materials, potentially impacting business margins and retail pricing structures.
Regional Economic Dynamics and Future Outlook
The UAE’s economic foundation rests on successful diversification beyond petroleum resources, encompassing technology innovation, renewable energy initiatives, and expanded trade and tourism sectors centered in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. This strategic transformation, supported by comprehensive infrastructure development and regulatory frameworks, sustains international investor confidence and capital attraction.
Market analysts suggest the AED’s stability reflects broader Gulf economic resilience, while Pakistan’s monetary authorities continue addressing domestic challenges through policy adjustments aimed at currency stabilization and export promotion initiatives.
The consistent AED-PKR rate demonstrates the enduring bilateral economic relationship while highlighting ongoing opportunities for enhanced trade cooperation between both markets.
