  1. The 2020 Indian Premier League is set to be postponed further after India extended its lockdown until 3 May to contain the spread of coronavirus. The Twenty20 competition was due to begin on Wednesday, having been delayed from its original start on 29 March. India's prime minister Narendra Modi announced on Tuesday that the nationwide lockdown will continue. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has not yet proposed a new start date for the event. On Sunday, BCCI president Sourav Ganguly said the organisation would "keep monitoring developments" but that it "can't say anything" in the current situation. "It's just simple common sense that at the moment, nothing is in favour of any kind of sport anywhere in the world, forget IPL," said the former India captain. "Practically speaking, when life has come to a standstill everywhere in the world, where does sport have a future in this?" England players including World Cup winners Eoin Morgan, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow and Moeen Ali are due to take part in this year's IPL. Under the lockdown in India, only essential businesses, such as groceries and pharmacies, are allowed to remain open. City transport services are limited to emergency staff and those with special travel passes, while all trains and flights have been suspended. Modi also suggested that the rules could tighten further over the next week but did not give more details. All 12 editions of the IPL to date have taken place between the beginning of March and 1 June that year. The 2009 tournament was moved to South Africa because of security concerns, while the 2014 competition was partly held in the United Arab Emirates after the Indian government did not provide security forces when the event again clashed with general elections in the country.
  2. Britain's independent tax and spending watchdog has warned the coronavirus pandemic could see the UK economy shrink by a record 35% by June. The Office for Budget Responsibility said that this was based on an assumption that the current lockdown would last for three months. Under this scenario, unemployment would hit 10%, from its current 3.9% rate. However, once restrictions were lifted, the OBR said it expects growth to recover quickly with no lasting damage. The OBR outlined the potential hit to the economy and public finances in a special report on Tuesday. It said a three-month lockdown followed by three months of partial restrictions would push up Britain's borrowing bill to an estimated £273bn this financial year, or 14% of gross domestic product (GDP). This would represent the largest deficit as a share of GDP since World War II. While borrowing is expected to jump, the OBR said the government's unprecedented financial help for workers and businesses would help to limit any long-term damage. It expects half of the sharp drop in economic growth in the second quarter to be reversed in the three months to September. While the UK economy is expected to contract by 13% for the year as a whole, the UK is expected to get back to its pre-crisis growth trend by the end of 2020. The OBR expects a more lasting impact on unemployment, which is estimated to rise by 2.1million to 3.4 million by the end of June. It said almost all the increase was happening this month, and would push the unemployment rate to 10%, before easing to around 7.3% at the end of the year. The jobless rate is expected to remain elevated until 2023, when it is expected to drop back to 4%, in line with the OBR's March forecast.

  8. The Italian Football Federation hopes that players can be tested for coronavirus at the start of May in preparation for the season to restart. Serie A has been suspended since 9 March because of the global pandemic. There is no set date for when the campaign can resume in Italy, with 12 full rounds and four outstanding fixtures still to play. "As soon as the conditions are right, we'll finish the championship," said federation president Gabriele Gravina. Speaking to Sky Sports Italia, he added: "Soon, there will be a meeting. We will establish the procedure which we will then communicate. "We will start, I hope, at the beginning of May with tests to ensure that players are negative and training can follow. "Will we play through the summer? We don't have a deadline but the idea is to finish the championships." Italy has been one of the countries hardest hit by the coronavirus crisis, and players at a number of clubs have been infected. Juventus lead the Italian top flight, one point ahead of Lazio and nine clear of third-placed Inter Milan. Brescia president Massimo Cellino, whose side are bottom of the table, has said he is ready to forfeit the club's remaining games if the season resumes.
  9. Image enhancement techniques have been used to reveal life aboard Nasa's stricken Apollo 13 spacecraft in unprecedented detail. Fifty years ago, the craft suffered an explosion that jeopardised the lives of the three astronauts aboard. Unsurprisingly, given they were locked in a fight for survival, relatively few onboard images were taken. But imaging specialist Andy Saunders created sharp stills from low-quality 16mm film shot by the crew. One of the techniques used by Mr Saunders is known as "stacking", in which many frames are assembled on top of each other to improve the image's detail. Crewed by Nasa astronauts Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert and Fred Haise, Apollo 13 was supposed to be the third American mission to land on the lunar surface. During the journey to the Moon, an explosion in the service module allowed some of the spacecraft's oxygen to leak out into space. Astronaut Jack Swigert reported the accident to ground controllers with the immortal, and much misquoted, phrase: "Okay, Houston, we've had a problem here." The part of the Apollo spacecraft designed to return the astronauts through Earth's atmosphere after the mission - the command module (CM) - had to be shut down to conserve its remaining resources for re-entry. The crew had to use the lunar module (LM) - also known as the lander - as a lifeboat. The lander's life support systems were designed for two astronauts living for two days on the lunar surface. Experts at Nasa's Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, had to figure out a way to stretch its resources so that it could support three crew members for four days. Lovell, Swigert and Haise looped around the Moon and back to Earth in a cold, damp module with limited drinking water. Luckily, the improvised plan to get them back was a success, and the three astronauts splashed down safely into the Pacific Ocean. Despite their grave predicament, the crew used a 16mm film camera to record scenes of life aboard the spacecraft. But the footage is of low quality by today's standards. It is this footage that Mr Saunders used as the basis of his enhanced images, which reveal new insights into the crew's fight for survival aboard the damaged spacecraft. A composite panorama of the lunar module "lifeboat" shows Commander Jim Lovell's attempts at normality by selecting some music on a tape player, while command module pilot Jack Swigert takes a nap in the storage area. Another, dubbed "Happy crew" by Mr Saunders, captures Lovell and Swigert in apparent high spirits. "One striking thing about the 16mm footage is how calm the crew appear, given the grave nature of the situation, the conditions, and the critical mission tasks that lay ahead," Mr Saunders told BBC News. "This perhaps belies their true feelings as we know that, in reality, the crew doubted if they would make it home alive." The crew members are eating in the scene. The freeze-dried food relied on mixing it with hot water, but only cold water was available. Lovell later admitted he had eaten little in the days following the accident, losing 6kg (14lb) in weight This ultimately boosts the detail, along with overall image quality, making it more "photo-like". But because he was dealing with moving pictures, Mr Saunders had to re-align multiple parts of the image, combining all the results into one final picture. These combined images are made up of more than 20 sections stitched together, with each section consisting of a stack of up to 75 separate processed frames, revealing the crew and spacecraft in unprecedented detail. Using commercial software, he then enhanced the photos; adjusting the contrast, correcting the colour and removing some of the "fish-eye" effect resulting from the wide angle lens that was needed to capture events in such a confined space.

  15. Besides Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche, many manufacturers have tried with varying degrees of success in the production of supercars. Back on twenty sports forgotten in our slideshow! [Updated on 04/10/2020 at 6:20 pm] Stuck at the concept stage, produced in only a few copies or simply fallen into oblivion for obscure reasons, these twenty supercars have never really had a great career . Or at least, will not have managed to cross the decades as was the case for others. Do you know the Volkswagen W12, the Bentley Hunaudières or the Dome Zero? No doubt some of them remind you of a vague memory? Don't panic if they don't tell you, that's normal. However, some had everything to please, such as the Jaguar XJR-15, based on the XJR-9 winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1988. Sharing with it a 6.0-liter V12 of 450 horsepower, it was produced in only 50 copies between 1990 and 1992 and could then shoot 0 to 100 km / h in 3.9 seconds. It would therefore seem that adding the name Le Mans to the name of a model is not always a guarantee of success, as was the case for the Dauer 962 Le Mans, road version of the Porsche 962 which nevertheless won the event in 1986, 1987 and 1994. Unlike the star of the circuits, this series declination unfortunately fell into oblivion. Other manufacturers have also tried their luck in the coveted supercar segment, including Volkswagen, and its W12 concept. Unveiled in 1997 in Tokyo and also christened Nardo, it was available in three versions and equipped with an Audi W12 developing 600 horsepower. Equally unusual, the Ford GT90, presented in 1995 at the Detroit Motor Show. The one whose name sounded like a tribute to the GT40 then embarked under its hood a quad-turbo V12 with 720 horsepower, allowing it to reach 378 km / h. Despite a very relative celebrity, notably due to a not always easy physique, it was transposed in many video games, and in particular Need For Speed 2, Gran Turismo 2 or even Sega GT 2002.
