The Sunrisers franchise is witnessing severe backlash on social media after acquiring Pakistan mystery spinner Abrar Ahmed in the men's player auction on Thursday. Abrar became the first Pakistani player to be signed by an Indian-owned team in The Hundred, after the Sunrisers picked him up for USD 255,000. However, the move didn't go down well in India, as several fans took to social media to criticise Sunrisers and team owner Kavya Maran for signing a Pakistan player and going against national sentiment.

(X/Reuters) At the Hundred men's player auction, owner Kavya Maran was seen sitting at the table alongside head coach Daniel Vettori.

The masses were uncomfortable with the Bengals’ free agency inactivity on Tuesday and Wednesday, but things revved up on Thursday. Cincinnati first announced a contract extension with Orlando Brown Jr., followed by reports of the team signing veteran defensive lineman Jonathan Allen to a two-year contract. Allen joins a defensive-focused 2026 free agency class for the Bengals that also includes defensive lineman Boye Mafe and safety Bryan Cook. Allen’s contract is reportedly a two-year agreement that could be worth up to $28 million. The Bengals made it clear this offseason would be centered on rebuilding their defense, and the early moves prove it. While Allen is up there in age (31), he’s a former Pro Bowl player who still has juice and can provide the needed leadership. The veteran defensive lineman was a former 17th overall pick in 2017 by Washington. He spent the first eight seasons there, racking up two Pro Bowl nods (2021-2022). Allen was with the Vikings last season, who released him on Wednesday, and the Bengals reportedly pounced quickly to get him signed. Let’s take a look at some tweets from X to get the vibes about Allen landing with Cincinnati. Twitter Reactions on Jonathan Allen

Jeremy Clarkson has slammed a Clarkson's Farm fan account for sharing an AI video depicting him fighting and 'beating up' Prime Minister Keir Starmer. The video, which is still up on X, was shared by the fan account ClarksonsFarm1. This account has nothing to do with Jeremy Clarkson or the Amazon Prime series. That site is a menace. And they’ve blocked me. — Jeremy Clarkson (@JeremyClarkson) March 11, 2026 The AI-generated video shows Clarkson throwing the Prime Minister out of his pub, before proceeding to 'beat him up', as many on X are calling it. Yesterday, Labour MP Chris Bryant led fresh calls for the video to be taken down. He said: "Come on @ClarksonsFarm1 take it down. I’m all for freedom of speech but not inciting or glorifying violence. And two of my colleagues have been murdered in my time as an MP." Clarkson then responded and slammed the account that shared it, calling them a 'menace'. He posted: "That site is a menace. And they’ve blocked me." ClarksonsFarm1 has not responded to any requests to remove it. Political commentator Don McGowan added: "Am I the only one that finds this disgusting? "It's not funny and glorifies violence. "In

Episode Transcript This is a computer-generated transcript. While our team has reviewed it, there may be errors. Morgan Sung: Hi! You’re listening to Close All Tabs, I’m Morgan Sung. About a year ago, we aired an episode about the great vape e-waste crisis. You know those disposable little bricks that let you puff nicotine clouds that taste like icy candy? Well, so-called “disposable” vapes have gotten pretty advanced, and are increasingly actually complex electronic devices. Some even have LED screens. Yeah, you can play games on your vape now! And while they could be recycled, more often than not, they’re tossed in the trash. California actually proposed a ban on the sale and distribution of disposable nicotine vapes by 2028 — the bill passed the assembly and is now in the state senate. Since releasing that episode, we’ve been thinking about our relationship with disposable culture and how it’s changing. Specifically, we’ve been keeping tabs on the right to repair movement — this idea that if you buy something, you should be allowed to maintain it, repair it, and even modify it, instead of just replacing it. We’re digging into this movement in the next two episodes. But first, here’s a
