New Zealand’s hopes of levelling the one-day series against India in Wellington may have received a blow with doubts over Brendon McCullum’s availability for the second one-dayer after he injured his right thumb yet again. What is clear is McCullum will not be keeping; Peter McGlashan has been called up to replace him behind the stumps.McCullum badly bruised his thumb, which he had previously fractured, when collecting a ball from medium-pacer Grant Elliott. McCullum batted in the nets on Thursday and Daniel Vettori, the captain, was hopeful he would be able to open the innings. “Obviously, the balance that Brendon brings into the squad is undermined by his ability not to keep but Pete [McGlashan] has been in pretty good form for the Northern Districts,” Vettori said. “So we are hoping he can replicate that and it doesn’t unsettle the team too much.”It’s funny with Brendon. We seem to have had a lot of fitness tests with him and he seems to have come through them all. He’s a pretty belligerent guy and he wants to play every game possible even when it is back down for Otago. I would err on the side of optimism with him, but we just have to wait and see just how it goes today.”If McCullum plays, Neil Broom is most likely to sit out the game. Vettori said he hadn’t discussed it with coach Andy Moles but omitting Broom would be the logical step. However Vettori said McCullum’s absence would push Martin Guptill up the order to open with Jesse Ryder. “Take him [McCullum] out, and you lose his experience and that knowledge of how to chase down scores or even set up a big score. He will be a big loss but we are pretty excited with the way Martin and Jesse are playing. If they have to go out and open the batting, we still have a lot of confidence in them.”

دعا مرتضى منصور رئيس مجلس إدارة نادي الزمالك، ثنائي الأهلي السابق، للعمل في قناة القلعة البيضاء، بعد طردهما من فضائية المارد الأحمر (على حد وصفه).

وقال مرتضى منصور في تصريحاته عبر قناة الزمالك: “أهم شيء في الدنيا الرضا والقناعة وبهما تعيش سعيدا، لكن إذا لم يتوافر الرضا والقناعة ستظل متوترا وتُصدر بيانات وكلام فارغ”.

وتابع: “مصطفى يونس يتم سبه كل يوم لأنه يعمل في قناة الزمالك، وهناء حمزة لاعبة الكرة الطائرة عندما انتقلت للعب في القلعة البيضاء، إدارة الأهلي قامت بطرد إبراهيم عبد الصمد زوج خالتها من النادي، لا النادي ليس عزبة يا خطيب، زوج ابنتك يعمل في القناة ويحصل على راتب 50 ألف جنيه لكي يسبنا كل يوم”.

وواصل: “أناشد وزير الرياضة أشرف صبحي بأن يُعلن عن تقرير الجهاز المركزي للمحاسابات بشأن مخالفات الأهلي، وتقرير لجنة الشباب والرياضة، ومثلما حاسبت إدارة الزمالك على جرائم لم ترتكبها، حاسب هؤلاء، ويجب أن تطبق القانون على الجميع”.

واختتم: “أنا أرحب بثنائي الأهلي السابق إبراهيم عبد الصمد ومحمد عمارة، للعمل في قناة الزمالك، يا خطيب مصطفى يونس يعمل في قناة الأبيض وهو كان قائدك”.

A comissão de arbitragem da CBF fez uma reunião por teleconferência com os árbitros escalados para a próxima rodada do Brasileirão, deu um “puxão de orelha” e pediu atenção para evitar a repetição dos erros nas jornadas recentes do Brasileirão.

– É uma reunião para alertar. Estamos verificando equívocos que não estavam acontecendo. É um alerta para que retomem a atenção e a concentração para que façam o melhor planejamento e estratégia de jogo. São orientações para que todos fiquem atentos. Estamos entrando numa fase da competição onde a atenção e concentração devem ser redobradas para o mínimo de erro possível – disse ao site da CBF o Coronel Marinho, presidente da comissão.

Se os erros na marcação ou não de pênaltis eram os principais no início da competição, nas últimas cinco rodadas cresceram os equívocos em jogadas de impedimento, anulando ou validando gols de forma indevida.

Segundo a CBF, a reunião teve ainda debate sobre temas como o uso adequado dos aparelhos de comunicação, liderança, agilidade na tomada de decisão, prioridades assistente adicional e a decisão rápida em lances polêmicos.

Stuart Law, the former Lancashire captain, is set to make a surprise first-class debut for Derbyshire after their captain and overseas player, Australia batsman Chris Rogers, didn’t secure his visa in time

Cricinfo staff14-Apr-2009Stuart Law, the former Lancashire captain, is set to make a surprise first-class debut for Derbyshire after their captain and overseas player, Australia batsman Chris Rogers, didn’t secure his visa in time. Law had signed up to play only limited-overs cricket but will step in for the club’s opening first-class game against Essex starting Wednesday.Another experienced player, West Indies batsman Wavell Hinds, managed to get his visa two days ago but South African fast bowler Charl Langeveldt is not available as he will be at the IPL. In Rogers’ absence, wicketkeeper James Pipe will lead this side.”It’s massive for the club because everyone wants to start the season well and put their best team out,” John Morris, Derbyshire’s head of cricket, told the ECB website. “The fact that Chris hasn’t been able to get his visa yet is a blow because he’s a quality player and our captain as well.”But we have Stuart available and that’s a bonus as we can call on his vast experience and quality.”

Tottenham Hotspur are competing with a number of Champions League clubs to sign Franck Kessie on a free transfer next summer.

The Lowdown: Contract running down

Kessie’s contract at AC Milan expires in the summer of 2022, and there are ‘growing concerns’ that he could well leave the San Siro as a free agent.

His agent has recently warned that the central midfield player needs a contract that is ‘up to his standards’, suggesting that what Milan have offered so far is simply not enough.

The Latest: Tottenham ‘ready’

As per Italian football journalist Daniele Longo, there ‘isn’t a chance’ that Kessie will leave in the January window, but there are ‘75% chances’ that he will not extend his current deal at Milan.

As such, Spurs, as well as Barcelona, PSG and Manchester United, ‘are all ready’ to sign him for free next summer.

The Verdict: No-brainer

It is certainly a no-brainer to sign Kessie, who is currently rated at £49.5m on Transfermarkt, on a free, providing Fabio Paratici can sell him on the project in north London of course.

Described as ‘devastating’ and likened to Manchester City and Premier League legend Yaya Toure by former AC Milan great Antonio Cassano back in March (Bobo TV via Milan Live), the Ivory Coast international would certainly elevate the quality in Nuno Espirito Santo’s midfield, scoring 14 times from midfield last season.

At 24 years of age, he still has so much potential left to fulfil, and would come with an incredible potential for profit in the future should the Lilywhites be able to capture him for free.

Após dez partidas no intervalo de apenas 34 dias, o Corinthians enfim terá uma folga na tabela do Campeonato Brasileiro. Em virtude das mudanças de calendário pleiteadas pela Chapecoense para realizar amistosos internacionais, o compromisso entre os clubes válido pela 20ª rodada foi adiado, o que fará o Timão ter duas semanas livres até enfrentar o Vitória no próximo dia 19 de agosto. Sem preocupações a respeito de perder o embalo que faz do Corinthians líder da competição com ao menos três rodadas de folga, o técnico Fábio Carille programou trabalhos diferenciados para o período.

O elenco terá este domingo de folga, mas já volta aos treinamentos na segunda-feira pela manhã. As atividades da semana ocorrerão em apenas um período e sempre às 9h30, mas os jogadores terão um raro fim de semana sem trabalho depois desta semana mais intensa. A programação dos outros seis dias antes da partida contra o Vitória ainda não foi definida pela comissão técnica, mas de acordo com Carille terá o dedo do preparador físico Walmir Cruz.

-Vamos preparar o jogadores para dois treinos intensos nesse período, temos um centro de inteligência para ajudar, temos o Fedato (fisiologista), que nos traz números dos jogadores, temos o Walmir, que prepara os trabalhos. Então vamos saber levar bem essa semana e não vamos perder a questão de ritmo de jogo – adianta o comandante alvinegro.

Além da preparação mental e física do elenco, Carille também investirá as duas semanas em estudos de novas táticas e possibilidades para o Corinthians, principal time a ser batido no Campeonato Brasileiro. Por fim, o período servirá para recuperar os jogadores atualmente lesionados: Pablo, Vilson, Moisés, Mantuan, Marquinhos Gabriel e Jadson. As principais preocupações são os dois titulares da lista, que são o zagueiro Pablo, com lesão na coxa direita, e o meia Jadson, que sofreu fraturas em duas costelas.

-Eles vão passar por novos exames até o meio de semana e aí teremos uma resposta mais certa – relata Fábio Carille, que no primeiro turno do Campeonato Brasileiro somou 14 vitórias, cinco empates e nenhuma derrota.

With West Bromwich Albion heading into Wednesday evening’s Championship clash in a decent run of form, having picked up ten points from a possible 15 over their last five fixtures, Valerien Ismael will undoubtedly be hoping for yet another positive result at the Liberty Stadium in order to keep the Baggies’ push for a top-two finish heading in the right direction.

However, with Wednesday night’s hosts, Swansea City, being in much-improved form in recent weeks, picking up eight points from a possible 15 over their own last five games, the Frenchman will have to ensure he gets his team selection spot on if he is to have any hope of leaving Wales with all three points.

And, having rested the winger in last Friday’s 1-0 victory over Birmingham City due to a slight hamstring injury, it would appear wise for the 46-year-old manager to unleash Grady Diangana from the off against the Swans.

Ismael must unleash Diangana

Indeed, it is clear for all to see that the £18m club-record signing has not been in the best form of his career over his 11 Championship appearances this season, with the 23-year-old averaging a rather disappointing SofaScore match rating of just 6.64 – ranking him as the Baggies’ fifth-worst performer in the league.

However, in the club’s 4-0 win over Cardiff City prior to the recent international break, the £9m-rated man started to show signs of the form that helped fire West Brom to promotion back in 2019/20, when, over his 27 minutes on the pitch, Diangana registered one assist, created one big chance, made one key pass, completed one dibble and won two free-kicks for his side.

As such, in order to best help the £36k-per-week winger continue his return to form, Ismael must start the man Pablo Zabaleta dubbed a “dangerous” player against the Swans, as, despite his below-par performances this season, the 23-year-old nevertheless still possesses the ability to terrify a defence that has already conceded 14 goals in the current campaign.

يقترب نادي مانشستر سيتي الإنجليزي من إعلان صفقة جديدة، بعدما أكمل المفاوضات بنجاح وفقًا لآخر التقارير الواردة.

وبحسب صحيفة “ديلي ميل” البريطانية، أكمل مانشستر سيتي التعاقد مع ظهير أيسر أندرلخت، سيرجيو جوميز.

تبلغ قيمة الصفقة 11 مليون جنيه إسترليني، وترتفع قيمة التعاقد إلى 16 مليون جنيه إسترليني، مع رسوم بيع بنسبة 15 في المائة.

لكن على الرغم من توقيعه، يظل مانشستر سيتي منفتحًا لإضافة ظهير أيسر آخر قبل إغلاق النافذة الصيفية.

رحيل أولكسندر زينشينكو إلى آرسنال ترك مانشستر سيتي دون خياريات متعددة في مركز الظهير الأيسر.

كان بطل الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز في السابق من المرشحين الأقوياء لمارك كوكوريلا، لكنه خسر أمام تشيلسي الذي تعاقد معه من برايتون مقابل 63 مليون جنيه إسترليني.

بعد أن تطور في أكاديمية لا ماسيا في برشلونة، انضم جوميز إلى بوروسيا دورتموند في 2018 قبل الانتقال إلى أندرلخت.

كانت هناك اقتراحات بإمكانية إعارة جوميز من قبل مانشستر سيتي، لكن لم يتم اتخاذ قرار نهائي بعد.

وخاض جوميز 49 مباراة الموسم الماضي، وسجل سبعة أهداف وصنع 15 مرة، حيث ساعد أندرلخت على احتلال المركز الثالث في الدوري.

أثناء وجوده في أندرلخت، عمل مع أسطورة السيتي السابق فينسينت كومباني، الذي يتولى الآن مسؤولية فريق بيرنلي.

حتى الآن في فترة الانتقالات هذه، وقع فريق جوارديولا مع إيرلينج هالاند وكالفين فيليبس وستيفان أورتيجا.

وبدأ مانشستر سيتي مشواره في الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز بفوزه 2-0 على وست هام وسيواجه بورنموث في مباراته المقبلة.

India will host the final and one semi-final of the 2011 World Cup while Sri Lanka will stage the other semi-final, the tournament’s organising committee decided in Mumbai on Tuesday

Cricinfo staff28-Apr-2009

India will host the final and one semi-final of the 2011 World Cup while Sri Lanka will stage the other semi-final, the tournament’s organising committee decided in Mumbai on Tuesday. India will host 29 of the 49 matches across eight venues, Sri Lanka will host 12 in three venues while Bangladesh will stage eight at two grounds as well as the opening ceremony on February 18, 2011.The 14 matches originally scheduled to take place in Pakistan have been redistributed with eight going to India, four to Sri Lanka and two to Bangladesh. The quarter-finals will be shared among the three neighbours, with Bangladesh hosting two.The committee also decided to shift the tournament secretariat from Lahore to Mumbai. BCCI’s chief administrative officer Ratnakar Shetty was appointed the event’s managing director in place of Pakistani banker Salman Butt. The organising committee, headed by ICC vice-president Sharad Pawar, will include an operations and planning group comprising the Bangladesh Cricket Board senior vice-president Mahbubul Anam, Indian board secretary N Srinivasan, Sri Lanka’s Duleep Mendis and Shetty. Haroon Lorgat, the ICC’s chief executive, said IS Bindra, the special adviser to the ICC, would be a key person in the management of the World Cup.He swept aside questions on whether Pakistan would boycott the World Cup in protest at being denied hosting rights, saying “we will cross the bridge when we come to it.” The ICC had to decide on the redistribution of Pakistan’s 14 matches after it removed the country from the list of hosts because the “uncertain political situation” would have made it difficult to “deliver a safe, secure and successful event” in Pakistan.Lorgat said the security concerns of the various ICC members and the players would be addressed with the formation of a special committee headed by Shashank Manohar, the BCCI chief, to oversee security details. “The security arrangements are very important and a special committee… would put together security plans for the successful conduct of the World Cup in 2011,” he said.”We are confident of organising a very successful World Cup,” Lorgat said.The subcontinent last hosted a World Cup in 1996, when India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka shared the games. The final was in Lahore, where Sri Lanka beat favourites Australia in a famous win.

A round-up from the latest Friends Provident Trophy matches

Cricinfo staff19-May-2009Group ANottinghamshire boosted their chances of a place in the quarter-finals with a nine-run win over Leicestershire at Grace Road. Nottinghamshire reached 149 for 3 from 35.3 overs before the rain fell, with Mark Wagh (40) and Samit Patel (48*) both impressing. Leicestershire were set a revised target of 77 in a ten-over thrash, but fell 10 runs short. The hosts needed 19 from 10, before 14 were required off the last over, bowled by Ryan Sidebottom, who conceded just two from the first three balls. Joshua Cobb was then run out with two balls to spare, ending Leicestershire’s hopes in this year’s competition.Group CMark Ramprakash continued his imperious form with yet another century – his third in six Friends Provident ties, and his fourth in all competitions this season – as Surrey posted a daunting 241 for 7 in only 39 overs against Sussex at The Oval. In a rain-reduced fixture that total might have been even more had Ramprakash not been run out in his prime, for 102 from 94 balls, having already cracked five fours and five sixes. Sussex, having already qualified for the quarter-finals, opted to shuffle their lineup for today’s match – including drafting in Chad Keegan, the former Middlesex fast bowler – and their pursuit began poorly when Ed Joyce was bowled for a fourth-ball duck. They were soon behind the rate when they slipped to 102 for 6, with Chris Schofield picking up 5 for 32, and despite Keegan’s enjoyably free-spirited 38, they were rolled for 162 in 30 overs.Group DHeavy Welsh rain at Swanseaprevented Glamorgan’s match against Northamptonshire from getting underway, and the match was abandoned at 2.30pm. Both sides took a point each.
