Bulawayo, June 19 (Ians) Kashyap Prajapati, Aqib Ilyas and captain Zeeshan Maqsood struck half-centuries as Oman made the first upset victory of the Men’s Odi World Cup qualifiers by chasing down 282 against a much-fancied Ireland with five wickets in hand and 11 balls to spare at the Bulawayo Athletic Club on Monday.
The five-wicket victory over Ireland is Oman’s first-ever victory over a Test nation in an Odi, triggering jubilant scenes in the team dugout as the gulf nation completed their highest-ever successful run chase in the format, throwing Group B wide open.
A flurry of lower-order runs took Ireland to 281/7, with George Dockrell slamming a career-best 91 while Harry Tector made 52, though the side played a whopping 157 dot balls in their innings.
In reply, Oman chased their target down in style, thanks to efforts from Prajapati, Ilyas and Maqsood in a largely unbothered chase, followed by Mohammad Nadeem (46 not out...

Life of Pi is a film directed by Ang Lee and starring Suraj Sharma.
Life of Pi is my favorite movie so don´t expect anything except wild acclaim for it.
Story line
After a shipwreck a boy is forced to live with a Bengal tiger in a lifeboat with no other options but to get along with each other.

Visually it is prodigious and what it tells… original, interesting, mystical and profound. It has everything to merit my five stars. One of the best movies I have ever seen.
