Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has made a request to all clubs playing in the first-class Premier League competition to prepare pitches with grass and consistent bounce for the ongoing 2011-12 season in order to encourage longer fast-bowling spells and avoid the frequent recurrence of injuries.Not a series or tour by the senior Sri Lankan team goes by without one or more fast bowlers returning home due to injury, thus upsetting the balance of the team and sometimes well-laid down plans to counter the opposition. This new development has been taking place in the past couple of years and it has prompted the cricket board to find a remedy.The result, according to SLC’s vice-president in charge of cricket, K Mathivanan, has been “very encouraging”.”We had to find a remedy to stop fast bowlers from getting injured constantly and our coaching unit, after a study, found that the preparation of pitches at domestic matches was part of the problem,” said Mathivanan.”When clubs prepare virtually grassless pitches it discourages the fast bowlers, and captains are reluctant to use them for longer spells. This has resulted in these fast bowlers becoming unfit to bowl even 20 overs a day at international level without breaking down.”Mathivanan said that SLC took a decision to request the clubs, especially the ones playing in the Premier League Tier ‘A’ to prepare pitches with pace and bounce to encourage fast bowlers to bowl longer spells.”I am happy to note that the majority of the clubs have got the message and have started preparing good tracks,” Mathivanan said.”We took this decision also with the 2015 World Cup in mind. We need to have our fast bowlers free from injury for the World Cup, which will be held in seamer-friendly and fast and bouncy pitches of Australia and New Zealand,” he said.Following the World Cup final last April, fast bowlers Nuwan Kulasekara, Dhammika Prasad, Nuwan Pradeep, Suranga Lakmal, Dilhara Fernando, Chanaka Welegedara and Shaminda Eranga have constantly been on the injury list.
Demitido após a derrota para o Nacional, do Paraguai, por 2 a 1, nesta quarta-feira, pela segunda fase da Copa Sul-Americana, em Assunção, o técnico Marcos Paquetá comentou sobre sua saída do Botafogo em nota oficial.
– Em primeiro lugar, quero pedir desculpas ao torcedor botafoguense, pelo planejamento não ter acontecido como gostaríamos. Os resultados positivos acabaram não acontecendo e, infelizmente, alguns fatores, como perda de jogadores importantes, sequência de jogos com pouco tempo para adequar a equipe à minha filosofia de trabalho e, até mesmo o momento financeiro do clube, contribuíram para os resultados ruins – disse, complementando.
– Mas agradeço a confiança da diretoria, dos funcionários e do elenco e por terem me acolhido neste retorno ao Brasil. Triste por sair sem as metas alcançadas, mas com a certeza de que, mesmo com as limitações momentâneas do clube, tentei contribuir da melhor forma.
A trajetória de Marcos Paquetá no Botafogo durou apenas 36 dias. O treinador foi recrutado pelo Alvinegro após a saída de Alberto Valentim, isso quando tinha acabado de vincular-se ao Pune City, da Índia. Aceitou o desafio durante a parada para a Copa do Mundo e, no retorno, ficou à frente da equipe carioca por cinco jogos: perdeu quatro vezes e ganhou apenas uma.
Sob o seu comando, o Bota marcou dois gols e levou nove neste ínterim, sendo quatro compromissos pelo Brasileiro e um pela Sul-Americana – justamente o último de Paquetá. Tinha vínculo até 2019, mas sem multa rescisória.

A seven-run win ended 18 years of hidings and draws; a generation of young New Zealand players and fans now know what it’s like to beat Australia, it can be done

New Zealand sides defeat Australia at rugby. Or netball. They don’t beat Australia in Test cricket. And they definitely don’t do it on Australian soil. At least, that was the way New Zealand were viewed until a quiet Monday afternoon in Hobart, when Doug Bracewell curled the ball through Australia’s middle and lower order. A seven-run win ended 18 years of hidings and draws.Before this day, New Zealand had only won in Australia when Richard Hadlee was at his peak. They hadn’t even managed it in New Zealand since March 1993. To put that in perspective, Bracewell, Kane Williamson, Tim Southee and Trent Boult had not yet started school. The New Zealand captain who ended the drought, Ross Taylor, was eight years old.”When did we win?” Taylor said after the Hobart victory. “Oh, 1993. Can I remember it? Vaguely. Not well.”A generation of young New Zealand players and fans now know what it’s like to beat Australia. It can be done. And after Taylor’s team stayed with Australia for two days in the first Test in Brisbane, only to lose their way as the match wore on, he had one simple message for his men. Show some ticker and never give up. As a result, Taylor has the enviable record of two wins from three Tests in charge.”I’m not a very good speaker, as you can tell by now, but the only thing I try to instil in the players is fight and be proud in playing for your country,” Taylor said. “We didn’t show much fight in Brisbane but we showed a lot of guts and determination out there today. That was for the New Zealand public, an early Christmas present.”[I have] over 50 text messages on my phone – I think that’s pretty big. Rugby is our No.1 sport but any sport against Australia, winning in Australia, the New Zealand public enjoys. The New Zealand public knows that the New Zealand cricket team, when playing against Australia, is always the underdogs, but they don’t like it when we don’t show much fight. That’s what we didn’t do in Brisbane. We showed a lot of ticker today.”They needed it. On the second afternoon, when Taylor and Kane Williamson were batting with discipline, New Zealand deserved to be favourites. By the fourth morning, when David Warner was on his way to a century with a composed Usman Khawaja also in the middle, Australia were 119 runs from victory with nine wickets in hand.”We believed in ourselves, that we could win this match,” Taylor said. “We knew we had to fight. We knew we had to play a lot better than we did in Brisbane. We talked a lot about the way we bowled in Zimbabwe [during the Bulawayo Test] in the last session; about just fighting, taking our catches and bowling in the right areas, and we’ll get reward. That’s what happened.”Not that it was smooth sailing, even when Bracewell and Tim Southee started to torment the Australian batsmen with hooping swing. With 42 runs still required, Warner was joined by the No. 11, Nathan Lyon, and the pair nearly steered Australia home.New Zealand thought they had won when Lyon was given out lbw but Australia’s review indicated the ball had pitched outside the leg stump, even though the right-armer Southee was coming over the wicket. To the naked eye, it was hard to believe the Eagle-Eye verdict, as the ball appeared to strike Lyon in line. It nearly cost New Zealand the game.”It’s a G-rated programme isn’t it?” Taylor said when asked about how he felt at the time of the reviews. “There were a lot of things going through my mind. There must be something wrong with my eyes. For me personally, some of them which I thought were not out were out and vice-versa. But at the end of the day, we won the match. The emotions going through? My goal was to show a calmness, but inside I was churning.”They fought the whole way. We would have won by 40 runs out there against some teams. But the way Lyon and Warner played, I nearly had a heart attack. Warner was outstanding. To come in in only his second match and control the game the way he did … we’ll be on the wrong side of a few hidings so I can’t feel too sorry for him, but he deserves a lot of credit for the way he batted.”As it turned out, Warner was Man of the Match, ahead of the more deserving Bracewell. The award was voted for by the Australian public, watching the telecast. But it’s the New Zealand public who will have the last laugh. For the first time in a generation, they can celebrate a Test victory over Australia.

A round-up of the action from the eighth match-day of the ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifier in Bangladesh

West Indies Women completed a thumping 130-run win against Pakistan Women in the final of the Women’s World Cup Qualifiers in Mirpur. West Indies chose to bat and put on 250 for 5, driven by a hard-hitting career-best 95 from Deandra Dottin. The top order all contributed, with cameos, opener Juliana Nero also hitting a half-century. While Dottin’s knock included seven sixes and five fours, Nero steered the innings with a 98-ball 63. Pakistan’s opener Qanita Jalil put the side on course with a fluent 53, but once offspinner Anisa Mohammed came on, the innings collapsed. Anisa too put in a career-best performance, claiming 7 for 14 in 8.3 overs to bowl Pakistan out for 120.West Indies’ captain, Merissa Aguilleira said she was happy the side had moved up in the rankings. “It is truly fantastic to walk away with the tournament trophy and undefeated at that, and to also know we have improved on the global rankings,” she said. “It’s been a brilliant event, with some competitive cricket played – I’m extremely happy with the team effort, we have been consistent out there and it has paid off.”Player of the Match, Anisa said she had enjoyed playing in spin-friendly conditions. “It’s been great to play here in the subcontinent, where the wickets are good for spin. I had hoped to take five wickets in the final but to walk away with seven wickets, I’m thrilled.”Stafanie Taylor, who was the Player of the Series praised the team effort that went into the win. “I’m thrilled to have received the Player of the Tournament trophy, but it was very much a team effort throughout the event and I’m happy we’ve walked away with the trophy.”Sri Lanka Women chased down 193 in a close game against South Africa Women in Fatullah, to finish third in the tournament. After batting, South Africa were steered by a patient 68 from opener Shandre Fritz. The Sri Lanka bowlers shared the wickets around, but Sandamali Dolawatte was the pick, claiming three wickets with her legspin, as well as a run out. Sri Lanka’s chase was then set up by a century stand from their openers, Chamari Atapattu and Yasoda Mendis. The pair dismissed in quick succession, for 60 and 47 respectively, and South Africa picked up wickets at regular intervals thereafter, but it was not enough. Sri Lanka sneaked home with three wickets in hand and two balls to spare.Hosts Bangladesh Women eased to an 82-run win against Ireland Women in Savar, in the fifth-place play-off. Batting first, Bangladesh made 210 for 7, on the back of a 113-run stand from their openers, Suktara Rahaman and Sharmin Akhter Supta. While Rahaman and Supta got fifties, none of the other batsmen could build on the starts they got but the cameos they made was enough to push Bangladesh past 200. Medium-pacer Jill Whelan finished with the best figures for Ireland, 3 for 31, and also effected two run outs. The Ireland chase never really got going, and there was panic as four of their line-up were run out. None of the Ireland batsmen managed more than opener Cecelia Joyce’s 42.Netherlands Women secured seventh place by beating USA Women by 126 runs in Savar. Netherlands were put into bat and built their total around solid contributions from their top order. Captain Helmien Rambaldo and Kerry-Anne Tomlinson made half-centuries, with Tomlinson top scoring with 73, as Netherlands finished with 293 for 7. USA could manage only 167 for 8 in reply, Tomlinson again the star for Netherlands with four wickets. The result would have been much worse for USA if it hadn’t been for a 72-run stand for the eighth wicket between Triholder Marshall and Anahita Arora.
Karnataka tightened their control over the game by adding a further 319 runs on day two and declaring on 635 for 9

Ramesh Powar took the usual few steps to deliver his, and the innings’, eighth no-ball. Embarrassed he walked back to the bowling mark. Rubbing the sweat from his forehead and temples, first with his left shoulder followed by the right, Powar prepared to bowl again. For a moment he gathered his breath, stared at the batsman before moving in with his quick-step bowling action to deliver. This time the ball slipped out of his sweaty palm and Powar fumbled to collect it from the ground. Finally he managed to deliver successfully what turned out be a flighted ball. Abhimanyu Mithun, Karnataka’s No. 9 batsman, skipped out of the crease immediately, confidently, to loft Powar over the straight boundary for a six. It was that kind of day for Mumbai: their bowlers were shown scant respect while the opposition batsmen ran the roughshod.Karnataka tightened their control over the game by adding a further 319 runs on day two. Manish Pandey, who had left the ground yesterday due to dehydration and cramps, returned to compile his maiden double-century in the Ranji Trophy while Amit Verma notched up his career-best score and his fourth century in this format.To compound Mumbai’s misery, the hosts lost their most experienced batsman when their captain Wasim Jaffer, erroneously, offered no shot to the fourth delivery of the innings from his Karnataka counterpart R Vinay Kumar. The ball nipped back into Jaffer’s right pad, just below the knee roll, prompting K Hariharan, the umpire, to raise his finger.The previous evening Pandey had made clear the visitors’ intentions: Karnataka would aim for at least 450 on a pitch where batsmen could comfortably play their strokes. And, so, 101 runs came in the first session. The visitors moved into top gear in the middle segment, cracking 189 runs in 30 overs, and, by then, Karnataka had breached the 600-run mark.Pandey walked in at the fall of Vinay, who enjoyed a harmless first hour to complete a fine half-century. Unlike Thursday where he was the pilot, Pandey allowed Verma to take the flight controls. It helped that Brabourne was a familiar environment for Verma, who had honed his basics under the tutelage of Vasu Paranjape, himself a former Mumbai stalwart, for three consecutive summers during his teens.No bowler presented any difficulty for the left-handed Verma, who picked runs on both sides of the wicket. Powar, bowling wide of the popping crease, tried luring Verma with flight and was soon dispatched past the cover boundary. Iqbal Abdulla focussed too much on bowling in to Verma’s legs only to be thwacked over his head a few times. The other left-arm spinner, Ankit Chavan, was not spared either.On 88, Verma reached three-figures with consecutive sixes against Powar – the first over the sight screen at the Churchgate End followed by another strong hit that sailed over long-on. Both batsmen easily charged bowlers, who tried everything – bowling from both ends, bowling negative lines, bowling to spread-out fields – yet failed to gain the upperhand.Disappointingly for Mumbai not one bowler could tie down the batsman. Ajit Agarkar, Powar and Abdulla, Mumbai’s leading bowlers in the past many seasons, were rendered useless. Interestingly, Powar and Abdulla had faced similar problems against a much weaker Rajasthan batting line-up last week on a similar track.There could be some sympathy for the bowler. The Brabourne pitch is not bowler-friendly as five wickets on the first day and four today indicated. However, domestic bowlers over the decades have toiled on flat pitches and gained respect by bowling tighter lines. On evidence, it would not be wrong to say that Mumbai’s bowlers have failed to maintain consistent lines of attack. Karnataka could have easily piled a 700-plus score but it seems they have more confidence in their bowling attack that contains three bowlers who have been in the Indian dressing room in the last two years.In Ajinkya Rahane, Rohit Sharma – the pair are part of the current Indian Test squad playing West Indies – and Abhishek Nayar, Mumbai have the wherewithal to challenge Karnataka. Each have their own individual ambitions to fulfil. And that could be a good enough spice to lift this contest which is in Karnataka’s favour at the moment.

وكان “بطولات” قد انفرد الأربعاء الماضي الموافق 5 يوليو، بأن نادي الزمالك نجح في تجديد تعاقد ثلاثة لاعبين بفريق كرة اليد لفترة مقبلة، تمهيدًا لتواجدهم داخل أروقة القلعة البيضاء الموسم المقبل، وهم محمد بسيوني مودي وأحمد حسام وأحمد مؤمن.. (طالع من هنــا)
جدير بالذكر، إن أحمد حسام نجح في التتويج بـ 8 بطولات مع الزمالك، وهي 3 دوري، دوري أبطال إفريقيا، وكأس السوبر الإفريقي، والسوبر المصري، وسوبر دوري المحترفين، وكأس الكؤوس.
كشفت تقارير صحفية تركية، أن النادي الأهلي متصدر الدوري المصري في مرحلة متقدمة للغاية من أجل التعاقد مع مهاجم جديد في الميركاتو الصيفي المقبل.
ويبحث الأهلي منذ فترة عن مهاجم قوي قادر على قيادة الخط الأمامي بطلب من المدرب، مارسيل كولر، وعاد للاهتمام بضم مهاجم فناربخشة، مبوانا علي ساماتا.
هذه ليست المرة الأولى التي يهتم الأهلي فيها بضم ساماتا، حيث سبق واهتم بالصفقة في يناير الماضي، لكن اللاعب التنزاني الدولي كان معارًا لصفوف جينك في الدوري البلجيكي.

ولم يرغب جينك في التفريط في المهاجم في يناير تحت أي ظرف، نظرًا لأهميته بالنسبة للفريق البلجيكي، لكن الآن ساماتا عاد إلى فناربخشة مرة أخرى.
وبحسب شبكة “VOLE” التركية، فإن الأهلي يرغب في ضم ساماتا الذي لا يريد البقاء مع فناربخشة، ويرحب بالانتقال إلى بطل دوري أبطال إفريقيا 2023.
وأكدت الشبكة الشهيرة في تركية أن المفاوضات تتقدم بشكل إيجابي في الوقت الحالي، وإذا تمت سينتقل صاحب الـ 30 عامًا إلى الأهلي فور فتح سوق الانتقالات الصيفية في مصر.
الجدير بالذكر أن ساماتا ينتهي عقده مع فناربخشة في نهاية الموسم المقبل في 30 يونيو 2024، وقيمته التسويقية تبلغ 2.5 مليون يورو.
Rildo está de saída do Vasco. Pouco aproveitado na atual temporada, o atacante está perto de rescindir o contrato com o Cruz-Maltino, e alguns clubes brasileiros aparecem como opção para o jogador e a Chapecoense aponta como principal destino para o atleta. A informação foi dada primeiramente pela “Band” e confirmada pelo LANCE!.
Sem espaço com Alberto Valentim, Rildo parece não fazer parte dos planos do treinador e, por isso, busca uma rescisão amigável com o clube. O LANCE! apurou que dois clubes brasileiros fizeram proposta pelo atacante, mas a Chapecoense lidera a corrida, já abriu negociação com o estafe do jogador e deve confirmar a contratação em breve.
Rildo não apareceu para o “Media Day” do Vasco, um evento em que os atletas do elenco gravam pequenos vídeos para serem exibidos pela Rede Globo de Televisão durante a temporada. Em entrevista coletiva realizada nesta quinta-feira, em São Januário, Marrony comentou sobre a saída do atacante.
-Ele (Rildo) passou ali, despediu-se de todo mundo. Todo mundo aqui gostava dele, zoava junto com ele. É um jogador que vai seguir outro caminho e vai fazer falta para a gente. Agora é seguir em frente. Temos muitos bons jogadores aqui. Que o Rildo possa ser feliz e que a gente possa dar continuidade no trabalho – afirmou.

Ankeet Chavan’s wedding is scheduled for June 2•BCCI
Ankeet Chavan, the Rajasthan Royals bowler who was arrested on allegations of spot-fixing, has been granted conditional bail till June 6 by a Delhi court. Chavan had sought bail on the grounds that his wedding was scheduled for June 2.Chavan had to deposit two sureties of Rs 1 lakh (US$1780) each and a personal bond of Rs 1 lakh with the court before he was released.”By denying the accused [bail] to solemnise marriage which is already fixed, not only he but also the would-be bride and other relatives would suffer for no fault of theirs,” the judge said.He was one of three Royals cricketers – Sreesanth and Ajit Chandila being the others – arrested on May 16, following which they were suspended by the BCCI pending an inquiry. Sreesanth has been remanded to judicial custody till June 4.Royals had suspended the contracts of all three players and also filed a police complaint against them. The players were allegedly promised money ranging from US$36,000 to 109,000 by bookies for each over of under-performance.Eleven bookies were also arrested along with the three players on May 16. One of the middlemen was identified as Jiju Janardhan, described by the police as Sreesanth’s close friend and team-mate at the Ernakulam club. Delhi Police had registered cases under the Indian Penal Code section 420 and 120B, which deal with fraud, cheating, and criminal conspiracy.
