 After a promising start for Australia, Head and Labuschagne lose.


Australias start to their first innings in the second Test against India was looking promising, until their two top batsmen, Matthew Head and Marnus Labuschagne, fell quickly. Head and Labuschagne were dismissed in the space of three overs, which put Australia in a precarious position. They were both caught behind by Indias wicketkeeper, Wriddhiman Saha, off the bowling of Ravichandran Ashwin. Head had made 15 runs off 40 balls when he was caught, while Labuschagne had scored just 10 runs off 21 balls. Both batsmen had looked relatively comfortable at the crease, but failed to make the most of their starts. The dismissals of the two batsmen meant that Australia were left in a difficult position at 34/2, with their captain Tim Paine and batsman Steven Smith the only two established batsmen in the line-up. It was a disappointing end to what had been a decent start to the Australian innings, with openers David Warner and Joe Burns having put on 24 runs for the first wicket. The Australian team will now be looking to their captain and Smith to steady the ship and help them build a significant first innings total. If they can do this, they will be in with a chance of salvaging something from the match and keeping the series alive.

Neuroplasticity and how it affects mental health

  Neuroplasticity and how it affects mental health Neuroplasticity refers to the brain's ability to adapt and change in response to experience, environment, and learning. It is the brain's ability to form new neural connections and pathways, and reorganize existing ones. Neuroplasticity plays a crucial role in mental health because it allows the brain to adapt to new situations and recover from injury or trauma. In the context of mental health, neuroplasticity can be both beneficial and harmful. On the one hand, positive experiences and healthy habits can promote neuroplasticity and lead to improvements in mental health. For example, engaging in regular exercise, practicing mindfulness meditation, and learning new skills can all promote neuroplasticity and lead to improvements in mood, cognitive function, and overall well-being. On the other hand, negative experiences and unhealthy habits can also lead to changes in brain structure and function that contribute to mental hea...
