Brian Lara could play a role in reviving West Indies' morale, says Shane Warne

Brian Lara could play a role in reviving West Indies' morale, says Shane Warne 

 

Legendary Australian leg-spinner Shane Warne believes an intervention from the legendary Brian Lara is warranted in order to save the West Indies' troubled tour Down Under from becoming a full blown crisis.
Speaking after witnessing the Windies innings and 212-run defeat inside three days in the opening Test in Hobart, Warne said Lara could play a role in reviving team morale.
"Lara is in the country. They need to get him involved, spend some time with the team in Melbourne," said Warne on Tuesday, who snared 708 wickets from 145 Tests.

Lara is the highest run-getter for the West Indies in Tests with 11,953 runs in 131 matches, and remains the world-record holder for the highest scores in Tests at 400 not out and first class cricket 501 not out.
He is currently in Australia after featuring in a Festival of Cricket Twenty20 match in Western Australia last week.

iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus Review

For most of the reviews here at Gadgets 360, we use the mobile in question as our primary phone for about a week or so before sharing our verdict with you. We realise this isn't perfect, since there are some aspects of the device that don't become obvious during that time, and in an ideal world, we'd use every phone for a couple of months before we publish our review. But we work under constraints where most devices aren't available to us for that long - almost all products that we review are loaned to us by companies for short durations - and there's also the competitive pressure of wanting to get your review out before others do, as long as it doesn't involve cutting any corners. With the launch of iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus in India, Apple offered to loan the two new iPhones to Gadgets 360 - and indeed other publications - for more than the typical timeframe of a few days. The India iPhone launch of course came a few we...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have made these Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies at least 20 times now. Not exaggerating. I first made these when we were in the Philippines, when it was a struggle to just keep butter solid for 2 seconds on the counter, and they were absolutely incredible. I had no idea how or why, but they just WORKED. And they blew my mind in the way only a perfect chocolate chip cookie really can. But then every once in a while, they didn’t work. I’m not always super exact with my baking, but still. They were not thick and chewy and buttery like the perfect cookie should be. Some of your comments said the same things – most of the time they worked, but sometimes they didn’t. And I don’t like that. Now I’m back home in dry, cool Minnesota and I have been waiting for this day just so I could figure out what would really make these cookies awesome for you. You who live in normal climates and shop at Cub Foods. I am now speaking your cookie-baking language. Since I’m re...
