(Reuters) - Thanasi Kokkinakis and Nick Kyrgios will team up for doubles at next month's Australian Open, and the entertaining local duo is aiming to dazzle crowds at the Grand Slam again.

LONDON, United Kingdom : Two dozen migrant workers who allege they were subjected to forced labour at a Malaysian factory while making parts for British vacuum cleaner manufacturer Dyson can sue the company in London, the Court of Appeal ruled on Friday .

The claimants were workers for Malaysian firm ATA Industrial or its sister company and made components for Dyson products. Dyson, whose Malaysian subsidiary cancelled its contract with ATA in 2021, denies the claimants' allegations and argued that any lawsuit should be brought in Malaysia rather than Britain.But the Court of Appeal overturned that decision, saying in a written ruling that London was"clearly and distinctly the appropriate forum" for the cases to be heard.
