Behind Kohli's Perth Tactic, England Great's Justification: "Had To Do..."

Former England captain Michael Vaughan has defended star India batter Virat Kohli after his flop show with the bat in the 1st innings of the Perth Test against Australia. Kohli managed just five runs before fending off a climbing Josh Hazlewood delivery to Usman Khawaja at slip. His 12-ball stay in the middle extended his lean patch with the bat, having managed just 93 runs in the recent home series loss to New Zealand. The former India captain hasn't scored a century since the West Indies tour last year. Vaughan, however, refused to rule Kohli out just yet despite his failure in the 1st innings in Perth. He suggested it's too early to judge Kohli, highlighting how the excessive seam movement made life difficult for most batters. "It is too hard to judge him. Coming out of the crease in Perth when the ball is bouncing is a tactic not many try to pull off and he went for that. It bounced and he found the outside edge. But I think that now we have seen Australia (bat),

US Doctor Stabbed To Death In Broad Daylight At Picnic Table Outside Home

Dr Talat Jehan Khan, 52, was fatally stabbed at a picnic table outside her home in Conroe, Texas on Saturday. The paediatrician was killed by a 24-year-old man who came out of nowhere, reported Fox News

Dr Khan was stabbed by a man repeatedly at about 12.30 p.m. A witness told KHOU that the mother-of-two was sitting outside chatting on the phone with her dog when the man "came out of nowhere" and attacked her in front of neighbours and children. 

Matthew Amador told KPRC heard the sound of children screaming and he rushed outside with his sword and his phone. 

"The perpetrator was checking her pulse, which was really bad. I saw him checking her pulse, and then he stabbed her three times. Then as I yelled, 'Hey,' he turned around and looked at me then ran," Amador said. "I've never seen evil like that in my life."

According to police, the suspect, Miles Fridrich, fled on foot and was nabbed minutes later. 

"This is an immeasurable loss for our family, completely unexpected," Khan's niece Mahnoor Mangrio told KHOU.

"She's a Muslim, strong in her faith, those are identifiable traits about her. She's extremely loving, and kind. She was my aunt ... the best aunt."

The motive of the murder is not clear. The Council on American-Islamic Relations in Houston said in a statement it is "paying very close attention" to the probe.

"We are unsure at this moment if this was a hate crime, however, given the tragic circumstances, we are paying very close attention to the investigation," the organization said in a statement. "We will continue to monitor the situation while we launch our own investigation and continue established dialogue with law enforcement."

Fridrich, 24, was arrested on charges of first-degree murder.

Dr Khan leaves behind a 14-year-old daughter and a 23-year-old son.

Exclusive: How Air India Express Pilots Handled Mid-Air Scare Over Trichy

A report of hydraulic failure from a Tiruchirappalli-Sharjah Air India Express flight and its subsequent holding pattern for over two hours may have caused panic on the ground, but things were always under control inside the cockpit, senior sources from the airline have told NDTV.  Flight AXB 613 took off from Tiruchirappalli in Tamil Nadu at 5.40 pm on Friday and landed at the same airport around 8.15 pm.  Here's what happened in the interim: The sources said that after the plane, a Boeing 737-800, was airborne, the landing gear was retracted normally.  When the landing gear, or undercarriage, was stowed successfully, the cockpit master caution, which indicates a system malfunction, sounded. Sensors detected that oil had drained out of the hydraulic system which controls the undercarriage.  The aircraft flew normally in all other respects, the sources said, adding that the 737-800 has redundancies built into the hydraulic system to deal with such situations.  The pilots deci
