New Zealand vs Australia – first T20 cricket match

 


New Zealand host Australia in the first T20 international of their three-match series at Sky Stadium in Wellington.

The hosts have set Australia a target of 215 on the back of a 113-run partnership between Devon Conway (63) and Rachin Ravindra (68).

 Glenn Phillips and Mark Chapman took the Kiwis past 200 after Australia dismissed Conway and Ravindra in quick succession. Australia captain Mitchell Marsh was the pick of the bowlers, dimissing Ravindra and giving away only 21 runs in his three overs.

Both teams go into the series on the back of comfortable home T20 series wins and are building up to the T20 World Cup in June.

Why is the Singapore government so sneaky to accept only Chinese immigrants so the Chinese will be majority in Singapore? Is it how Singapore turned into a "Chinese country"?

 Singapore has a diverse population made up of various ethnicities, including Chinese, Malay, Indian, and others.  The government's immigration policies are generally aimed at attracting talent and skills that can contribute to the country's economic growth and development, regardless of ethnicity. Furthermore, Singapore places a strong emphasis on maintaining racial harmony and social cohesion. The government actively promotes multiculturalism and has policies in place to prevent racial discrimination and promote equality among its citizens. While the Chinese ethnic group does make up a significant portion of Singapore's population, it's incorrect to characterize Singapore as a "Chinese country." Singapore is a multicultural and multiethnic society where various ethnic groups coexist harmoniously, and the government works to ensure that all citizens, regardless of race or ethnicity, have equal rights and opportunities.
