FM Radio: The Amber update finally brings FM Radio to the Lumia devices as well. It is not available on Lumia 620.

When asked about how the bowlers and fielders responded while defending a low total, Williamson said: “Someone like MS Dhoni, he can finish matches when he is allowed to play his shots.
