威客电竞 visa tracker — NEW VISA NORMS FOR 5 COUNTRIES. The 威客电竞 has always kept its doors open to the world, and despite the grim scenario due to COVID-19, has begun accepting tourists again. However, certain people have tried to misuse the country鈥檚 hospitality by coming on visit visas to look for jobs. This resulted in a situation where the 威客电竞 had to send back a number of persons on tourist visas as they had not fulfilled all conditions, prompting tighter entry norms for citizens from five nations. The 威客电竞 will remain an open country, but everyone entering the country must respect the law of the land.

A BIT OF FESTIVE CHEER FOR GOLD BUYING? Gold prices will need to do its bit if shoppers in the 威客电竞 are to get serious about picking up the metal now, when bullion is commanding upwards of $1,900 an ounce.

Chris Gayle of Kings XI Punjab during match 31 of season 13 of the Indian Premier League — IN GREAT FORM. Chris 鈥楿niverse Boss鈥� Gayle lit up the IPL in typical fashion as he took his long-awaited bow against Royal Challengers Bangalore on Thursday night in Sharjah. With the match in the balance, the big-hitting West Indies veteran came to the crease at No. 3. He took a little while to get going, but then the sixes started flowing at a high-scoring ground that is perfect for his all-or-nothing style. He even managed to throw in a last-minute panic as the runs dried up in the final three overs with victory in sight. He was run out on the penultimate ball. Thankfully, his replacement - Nicholas Pooran - is also in fine form, and he smashed a six for only KXIP鈥檚 second win. (COMMENT BY: Mattew Smith, Sports Editor) Image Credit: Twitter

Trump Biden — TRUMP, BIDEN HAVE A GO AT EACH OTHER 鈥� FROM A DISTANCE. The second face-to-face debate between US President Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Joe Biden may have been cancelled, but both had a go at each other 鈥� from a distance. The topics at the town halls ranged from the economy to tackling the coronavirus and election fraud. There was plenty of rhetoric at times, and when the questions were tough, being evasive and combative saved the day. More than 18 million people have already voted in person or by post for the November 2 election. So with only 19 days left for polls, both candidates will have to do their best to woo those sitting on the fence. (COMMENT BY: Alex Abraham, Senior Associate Editor) Image Credit: AP

LET IT GO. To try and please everyone is the ambition of the fool. Those clever enough to climb through the ranks of stardom know better. While trolls come and go, actors including Swara Bhaskar and Taapsee Pannu (pictured) 鈥� who are often at the receiving end on critical remarks - slap back the nastier comments or ignore them completely. There鈥檚 a lesson to be learned there 鈥� let no one steal your thunder. (COMMENT BY: Karishma Nandkeolyar, Assistant Online Editor) Image Credit:
