00:07Here are the top stories at this hour.
00:09A second allegation of sexual misconduct has emerged against US Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
00:15The development has further imperiled his nomination to the Supreme Court,
00:19forced the White House onto the defensive, and fueled calls from Democrats to postpone his confirmation.
00:25The second claim by Deborah Ramirez dates to the 1983-84 academic year,
00:30which was his first at Yale University.
00:32Openers Rohit Sharma and Sikhar Dhawan hit punishing centuries to steer India

00:56while Pakistan faced a must-win Super 4 clash against Bangladesh on Wednesday.

01:06It's an old tradition that a bride should have something old, something new,
01:10something borrowed and something blue on her wedding day.
