Australia wrapped up a dominant 5-0 T20I series win over West Indies at Warner Park, winning the final match by three wickets. Shimron Hetmyer’s 52 helped the hosts to 170, but a middle-order surge from Cameron Green, Tim David, and Mitch Owen secured the chase in just 17 overs. Captain Mitchell Marsh praised the historic sweep, saying, “I didn’t expect 5-0.”
With this result, West Indies now face growing pressure, having also been whitewashed 3-0 in Tests, including their record-low 27-run collapse. Cricket West Indies has launched an emergency review into the team’s performance.

Shanghai’s RoboCop Goes Viral: Meet Xiao Hu, the Traffic-Directing Robot

A futuristic traffic cop is making waves online — and it’s not human.

Meet Xiao Hu, a humanoid robot currently being tested on the streets of Shanghai, where it's been seen directing traffic, giving voice commands, flashing hand signals, and even answering simple questions from pedestrians.

Clad in a full police uniform, complete with helmet and lights, Xiao Hu has become an instant internet sensation, with locals and tourists capturing videos and hailing it as a glimpse of the future of urban policing.

City officials say while the robot is still in a trial phase, it could soon appear at high-traffic intersections and major public events.
