A third-wicket stand of 103 between Babar Azam (65 off 42 balls) and Haris Sohail (50 from 36) enabled Pakistan to post 173-6 in the one-off T20 in Cardiff on Sunday. All-rounder Archer took 2-29 from his four overs and also ran Azam out two days after making his one-day International bow in the win over Ireland. Captain Morgan saw his side home with four balls to spare by hitting Faheem Ashraf for his third six, finishing not out on 57 from just 29 deliveries....

Australia were 150 for five at tea in reply to South Africa’s first innings total of 311. Morkel, who will retire from international cricket after the series, took three of the first four Australian wickets to fall and became the fifth South African to join the 300 club. Morkel dismissed Usman Khawaja and Steve Smith in his first spell, then came back to break a 78-run stand between Cameron Bancroft and Shaun Marsh when Marsh flashed at a wide ball and was caught behind....

The Atlas Lions caused a major shock in the group stages, edging out 2018 finalists Croatia for top spot in Group F, and knocking out FIFA’s No.2 ranked side, Belgium.

Regragui and his squad fell short in the semifinal against France but his team have already broken new ground for African teams on the world stage....

Rise might be one of the best co-op games on the Switch, but it’s the sort of game you need a mentor for, if not a full 101-level college course. From the jump, Rise is a nest of menus, sub-menus, radial menus, incessant tutorials, and rules on top of rules, with each new weapon, mechanic, and monster presenting a new set of fun facts to know and tell. It’s amazing that a series this popular is also this hard to get into....

As was the case with the previous entry Monster Hunter World, players are able to join other hunters through the Quest Board. Unlike MHW, Monster Hunter Rise doesn’t list quests in the same fashion, nor does it allow players to tackle Village quests as a team. While Monster Hunter Rise does offer a tutorial on joining other players and using the quest board, it’s unfortunately not very clear.

This development engine was originally created for Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, but has since been used to create the remakes of Resident Evil 2 and 3, Devil May Cry 5, and is the basis for next-gen title Pragmata. Capcom said it is using the RE Engine to provide a “new, approachable Monster Hunter experience that can be enjoyed anytime, anywhere, and with anyone,” so Rise should be an interesting showcase for how adaptable Capcom’s tech is....

On his way out, Ichihara had some inspiring words to share that also come off as a bit of a dismissal to Capcom.

But he may just have had lofty aspirations, too. He also says that he’s leaving Capcom for ILCA because “I only live once....

The result ended up being fine for the Mexicans. They achieved their goal of winning the group after a 2-0 victory over the Caribbean side. And, especially with an alternative side made up mostly of young players, fans and the press (ourselves included) may have to get used to the idea that the days of 6-0 Gold Cup results are behind us. Mexico needed more from narrow win “Maybe in the past teams won games easily but today football has grown so much....
