ESPNcricinfo staff26-May-2013Gurunath Meiyappan, the top Chennai Super Kings official who was arrested by Mumbai Police on Friday night, has been suspended by the BCCI “from any involvement in the sport of cricket and in particular from any involvement with the Chennai Super Kings team” pending further investigations.In a release issued on Sunday morning, the Indian board said: “The BCCI has taken note of the detention by Mumbai Police of Gurunath Meiyappan, who is a member of the team management of Chennai Super Kings. As an accredited team official, Mr Meiyappan is subject to the provisions of the IPL operational rules and the BCCI anti-corruption code for participants. Pending further investigations and any subsequent hearing by the BCCI disciplinary committee or the IPL code of behaviour committee, Mr Meiyappan has been suspended by the BCCI.”Public prosecutor Wajid Sheikh, meanwhile, confirmed to news channel that “the evidence” against Gurunath till now only pointed to betting offences. “We have evidence of betting only at this stage. Only betting,” Sheikh said. “We want to investigate him for fixing also. Till today there is no proof, that which match, which player is fixed.”Gurunath’s family lawyer, PS Raman, said the charges against him were ambiguous and insignificant. “They [Mumbai Police] are yet to find out what he has done, so they have taken him in police remand. Now they say not spot-fixing or match-fixing, but betting,” Raman was quoted as saying in . “This is such a case that anyone can plead guilty and walk out by paying a fine of Rs 200.”It is such a small offense for which Meiyappan would not run away. The quantum of betting is irrelevant. Just because Meiyappan’s number was found in the phone does not mean that he is guilty. He has known Vindoo Randhawa for the past three years or so and was introduced to celebrities by the film actor.”Meanwhile, the BCCI confirmed that its president – who is also managing director of Super Kings’ owner, India Cements, and father-in-law of Gurunath – will address the press at 4pm on Sunday.The three Rajasthan Royals players, Sreesanth, Ajit Chandila and Ankeet Chavan, who were arrested on May 16 for alleged spot-fixing, will be produced in a Delhi court today as the stipulated period of their police custody runs out.

Designated captain Javeria Khan, senior player Nida Dar unavailable for series opener

Annesha Ghosh07-Nov-2021Designated captain Javeria Khan, pacer Diana Baig and spin-bowling allrounder Nida Dar has been ruled out of Pakistan’s first ODI against West Indies scheduled for Monday, hindering their preparations ahead of the 2022 ODI World Cup global Qualifier slated to take place in Zimbabwe from November 21.In Javeria’s absence, Sidra Nawaz has been named stand-in captain for the opening ODI of the three-match bilateral series which will be held in its entirety at the National Stadium in Karachi. Pakistan head coach David Hemp put Javeria and Baig’s unavailability down to fitness concerns, saying the duo are not “not quite right” yet though they, along with top-order batter Omaima Sohail “came out of isolation a couple of days ago” after a Covid-19 outbreak in their original 18-member squad forced six players into isolation.According to Hemp, all three players trained with the extended squad on Sunday morning. While Sohail was named in the 12-member squad for Monday’s fixture, Javeria and Baig will miss out along with Dar, who exited the bubble a few days ago following her father’s passing.”As you are aware, we have been hampered by a Covid outbreak cumulatively in our camp from October 22,” Hemp said on Sunday during a virtual press conference. “We still have three players that will return to us over the next three to four days. Today (Sunday) we got three players back into the group, so we now have an extended group but we’re still three players short. We are also short of Nida Dar. Our condolences go to Nida and her family. Unfortunately, her father passed away a few days ago.”

Fixtures (All matches start at 10am local time)

• 1st ODI: November 8 at National Stadium

• 2nd ODI November 11 at National Stadium

• 3rd ODI: November 14 at National Stadium

Despite the trio’s absence, and the unavailability of Bismah Maroof, who is on maternity leave, Hemp, who was appointed Pakistan’s coach in October 2020, backed the home team to come good against West Indies. This series will be his first home assignment.”We have Sidra Amin, Iram Javed, Ayesha Zafar and Aliya Riaz,” he said. “In the top six, we have players that are capable and performing. This [series] is a great opportunity for them.”

West Indies beat Pakistan 3-2 the last time the two teams squared off in a bilateral ODI series in the Caribbean in July-July. Pakistan won the last two matches of that series. Hemp hopes several members of Pakistan’s batting department will look to build on their performances from the Caribbean tour.”Muneeba, she got herself in most of those innings [in West Indies],” he said. “She was disappointed not to go on and get to 60, 70 or even a hundred. Omaima did manage to get through the 30-run mark and a couple of 60s. There has been some progress there.”Stafanie Taylor missed the previous tour to Pakistan in 2019 due to security concerns•IDI via Getty Images

The series – Pakistan’s first home assignment since November 2019 – also marks the return of captain Stafanie Taylor to the West Indies side. She had missed the T20I series against South Africa in Antigua in August-September after being identified as a primary contact of a Covid-19 case in Jamaica, which required her to serve a period of isolation.Now she returns to tour Pakistan after having opted out of the previous tour to the country February 2019 due to security concerns.”It was really disappointing not being in the last ODI series [against South Africa]. I had to take some personal leave of absence,” she said on the even of the series opener. “But I’m back and it’s really good to be back. In Pakistan it’s my first time being here and it’s been good so far.”It seems obvious that we struggled against South Africa. We had some time to go back and reflect on things that we needed to improve our game,” she said. “We were fortunate enough to have a few weeks’ camp in Antigua to rectify some of those errors. So yeah, hopefully, you know, starting tomorrow (Monday), something new.”We are using these games to get the preparation going for the qualifiers, but not looking too far ahead. We definitely want to take away winnings, of course. So not just this practice, but also for us personally, to get some runs and wickets under our belt, and I think looking at not just the qualifiers but also for [the] World Cup [proper next year]. You never know, probably Pakistan again. So, it’s good preparation for us moving forward.”Women’s cricket is set to return to the National Stadium after 15 years•Getty Images

The series also marks the return of international women’s cricket to the National Stadium nearly 16 years after Pakistan last played at the venue in January 2006. Back then, Karachi hosted the Asia Cup during which the home team, India, and Sri Lanka played at Karachi Gymkhana and National Stadium.Spectators up to 50% capacity will be allowed for each of the three matches, though only those with invites – strictly colleges and schools – can attend the first two games. The ground will be open to the general public for the third fixture.West Indies served a three-day quarantine upon landing in Karachi on November 1 and had their first training session on November 5. After the series, which ends on November 14, both teams will travel to Zimbabwe where they will be among the 10 teams vying to secure one of three places for the World Cup to be played in New Zealand in March-April next year.Pakistan squad for first ODI: Aliya Riaz, Sidra Nawaz (captain and wicketkeeper), Anam Amin, Ayesha Zafar, Fatima Sana, Iram Javed, Kainat Imtiaz, Muneeba Ali, Nashra Sandhu, Omaima Sohail, Sadia Iqbal, Sidra AminWest Indies squad for Pakistan tour and World Cup Qualifier: Stafanie Taylor (capt), Anisa Mohammed (vice-capt), Aaliyah Alleyne, Shemaine Campbelle (wk), Shamilia Connell, Deandra Dottin, Sheneta Grimmond, Chinelle Henry, Qiana Joseph, Kycia Knight, Kyshona Knight, Hayley Matthews, Chedean Nation, Shakera Selman, Rashada Williams; Reserves: Cherry Ann Fraser, Shabika Gajnabi, Karishma Ramharack

كشفت تقارير صحفية إسبانية، أن نادي برشلونة صرف النظر عن التعاقد مع الدولي البرتغالي، روبن نيفيز، لاعب وسط فريق ولفرهامبتون الإنجليزي.

برشلونة ارتبط كثيرًا بالتعاقد مع نيفيز خلال فترات الانتقالات الماضية، لكن النادي اتخذ قراره النهائي، بالانسحاب من صراع التعاقد معه.

وكشفت صحيفة “سبورت” الإسبانية، أن صفقة اللاعب البرتغالي لن تكون مفيدة قانونيًا للنادي من الناحية المادية، بالإضافة إلى أنه كان من المفترض أن يكون خليفة بوسكيتس في وسط ملعب برشلونة، لكنه لم يعد يلعب في مركز لاعب الوسط المحوري.

رغم كل شيء، كان لابورتا قد توصل لاتفاق مع خورخي مينديز وكيل اللاعب، ولكن لن يسفر ذلك الاتفاق عن شيء، وأصبح الآن مانشستر يونايتد الأقرب لضم اللاعب.

تشيلسي أيضًا ضمن الأندية التي كانت تتنافس على ضم روبن نيفيز، وكذلك ليفربول الذي يريد إحياء وسط ملعبه من جديد، لكن حتى الآن مانشستر يونايتد هو المتقدم في المفاوضات.

As he ponders an offer to take part in the IPL for the first time, Michael Clarke has cast further doubt over the young West Indian spinner Sunil Narine’s availability to play in the forthcoming Test series against Australia due to contractual obligations to the Indian Twenty20 tournament.The West Indies coach Ottis Gibson has already expressed doubts about his ability to choose Narine for the Tests, which overlap with the first half of the fifth edition of the IPL, given that he is not contracted to the West Indies board and is therefore likely to depart for Kolkata for the entirety of the event.Australia’s batsmen have struggled mightily against Narine’s accurate off breaks and variations, delivered in a flat style ideally suited to the slow, low pitches of the Caribbean. However, Clarke said he was not expecting Narine to figure in the Test series, and had not committed much thought to the prospect of playing against him.”I don’t think he’s playing the Test series,” Clarke said prior to his departure for the West Indies. “I think he’s playing in the IPL the last I heard. I heard the West Indies were going to release him to play the full time in the IPL but I’ve watched him on TV through this series and I’ve seen a little bit of him in the past.”He’s bowled very well. He’s got really good control and he can not only spin his offspinner but the ball the other way so I guess that’s the hardest thing about playing spin, being able to pick him. Once you pick him you still have to play (the ball) and on the wickets so far it’s been quite tough.”If he does take part in the Test series I’m sure we’ll all have a real good look at him.”Narine’s case is the latest instance of the WICB losing the battle to retain its best players for international duty in the face of T20 counter-offers. The most prominent casualty of the struggle has been Chris Gayle, but Narine’s loss would be almost as significant given such a promising start to his time in Caribbean colours.By contrast, Clarke has held back from taking part in the IPL since its inception so he could concentrate on his Australian duties, a commitment he was rewarded for when he attained the captaincy left vacant by Ricky Ponting. However Clarke had noted as early as 2010 that the 2012 IPL may have been an option for him, and while he stopped short of stating his intentions, there was an acknowledgement of negotiations between the Pune Warriors and Clarke’s manager James Erskine.Pune’s captain Sourav Ganguly had caused a stir by stating at a Kolkata promotional function that “we’re on the verge of signing Clarke”, in a deal that would have him fly to India for the closing phase of the tournament following the conclusion of the Tests against the West Indies.”That opportunity has been presented,” Clarke said. “We will continue to talk about it and make a decision in due course. Right now my priority is to make sure I get back and make sure we continue our success in the Test format.”

A formação do Corinthians no segundo tempo da partida contra o Vasco surpreendeu. O meia-atacante Pedrinho saiu do lado direito e passou a atuar “flutuando” como um falso 9, enquanto Romero deixou a posição de centroavante para atuar na beirada. Deixar Pedrinho mais perto da área é uma ideia do técnico Osmar Loss, que viu o primeiro teste funcionar: o Corinthians virou o jogo para 4 a 1.

Loss acredita que a habilidade de Pedrinho pode desequilibrar mais perto da área. O treinador ainda aproveitou o fato de não contar com os centroavantes Roger e Jonathas, lesionados, para testar o jovem meia-atacante mais avançado.

– O Romero fez os três gols jogando pelo lado, quem estava flutuando era o Pedrinho. Estamos tentando aproximar o Pedrinho da área – pontuou Loss, após ser questionado sobre Romero ter atuado novamente como centroavante (já havia feito a função no clássico contra o São Paulo).

– O Pedrinho é uma peça muito importante dentro do elenco, está amadurecendo cada vez mais, fez uma função que ainda não tinha executado. A gente treinou muito pouco para que ele jogasse dessa forma. Vai melhorar ainda mais com o entendimento do posicionamento dessa função mais próximo da área, onde a habilidade pode ser muito mais decisiva – analisou o treinador.

Na visão de Loss, Romero e Pedrinho são concorrentes pelo lado direito do campo. Nos últimos dois jogos, porém, eles atuaram juntos: Romero como centroavante no clássico contra o São Paulo e no primeiro tempo diante do Vasco, e depois Pedrinho como centroavante na etapa final. O treinador comemorou as variações no sistema ofensivo da equipe e prevê dificuldade para os adversários.

– Sempre deixei muito claro que o Corinthians tinha essa forma de jogar (sem centroavante de origem) bem definida, que não era necessário treinar isso na preparação porque já tinha essa formação bem estabelecida desde o primeiro semestre. Claro que são jogadores novos, e a gente ganha possibilidades. Com os retornos do Roger e do Jonathas, ainda tem o Matheus Matias, o Emerson Sheik que entrou no final contribuindo… Acho que temos bastante possibilidades. Deixamos os adversários mais perdidos para saber como o Corinthians vai jogar – celebrou Loss.

Phillip Hughes is determined to play his own way against Sri Lanka, having learnt that even the best-intentioned coaching advice can lead to muddled thoughts and meagre scores.As he prepares to partner Shane Watson following the traumatic removal of Simon Katich from the list of Cricket Australia contracts, Hughes is honing more or less the same technique he took into his debut against South Africa in early 2009.That series, in which Hughes topped the Australian aggregates and blazed two centuries to help a young side to an unexpected series win, did not dissuade observers from tinkering with the idiosyncratic technique that reaped those rewards.He has cut a more orthodox but less-convincing figure at the international batting crease ever since, starting with the Ashes series later that year in which a couple of hot spells from Andrew Flintoff were enough to see Hughes jettisoned after only two Tests.”Through that time there were a lot of people who came in to try to give advice, but I just had to go back to my game and play the way I’ve always played,” Hughes said. “I might’ve gone off it a little bit, but that’s all part of learning and the experience of it all. There are things I’m going to have to tinker with, with my technique, but as a whole I’ll keep it how I’ve always played.”During the last Ashes series Hughes was chosen to replace the injured Katich, and retained for three Tests, when clearly short of runs and confidence. Picked when he should have been dropped, and dropped when he should have been picked, Hughes sought solace in the advice of his first mentor, Neil D’Costa, who is now employed at a cricket academy in Nagpur.”I worked even harder in the nets – the Ashes series was disappointing, so I went back and just worked harder and Neil D’Costa flew from India back to Australia and we spent time together,” Hughes said. “We got down to the nets basically every day for two weeks, a couple hours a day, worked as hard as I’ve ever worked, and things turned around.”I hadn’t seen Neil for a fair few months – he’d been in India – and it was just good to have someone there who’s been there [for me] the whole way; [and for me to] to come back to Australia and work as hard as possible with Neil. He knows my game quite well now and he’s been coach/mentor the last five or six years for me, so getting back was good and beneficial.”The balance seems finally to have been redressed ahead of the Test series between Australia and Sri Lanka, for Hughes enters the tour having carved out a handsome tally of runs for New South Wales and Australia A since the Ashes. Reflecting on the last summer, Hughes agreed he might have been helped by more runs behind him when he walked out to bat in the third Test in Perth.”It would’ve been better, but I was excited when I did get selected, and to play the last three Ashes Tests was a huge thrill, but also disappointing … it would’ve been nice to get more runs, no doubt about that,” Hughes said. “I wasn’t in the best form then, I was in better form towards the back-end of the season, but that’s cricket; especially opening the batting you knick off a few times and you get a few starts and you want to make those into big scores. It wasn’t to be in the Ashes series.”While extremely angry about the manner of his exit, Katich bore no ill-will towards Hughes, and the pair remain on good terms in a relationship that began when the younger batsman was a teenager in the NSW squad.”My debut game for Australia [in South Africa] was with Simon, and I’ll always remember the time Simon gave me back in NSW when I was only 17-18, going into the squad and what he did personally for me,” Hughes said. “I did [feel sorry for him], that was a while ago now, decisions that people have got to make, and I’m not one of those, I’ve just got to control what I can control, but it was disappointing and I was feeling for Simon at the time.”Sorrow for Katich had been preceded by some shock, for Hughes had fully expected Katich to regain his place at the top of the batting order following an Achilles injury. He publicly stated that his goal was to be the reserve batsman on tour.”I’ve said that for the last couple of years when I got dropped,” Hughes said. “I’ve always wanted to be that spare batsman on tour and be that next guy in. I’ve been lucky enough the last couple of years on tour to be that spare batsman, and now comes the opportunity I’ve always wanted. [After] getting dropped I’d get itchier and more keen to get back in there, knowing I’ve had a taste of Test cricket.”That hunger will now be sated, although in conditions far removed from anything Hughes has encountered at Test level before. He has spoken a lot to Ricky Ponting, Michael Clarke and the assistant coach Justin Langer about handling spin, seeking out the kind of advice that will help, not hinder, his latest tilt at international batsmanship.”I’ve played on the subcontinent before but not for Australia. I’ve been to India a lot but it’s different – it’s Test cricket, and it’s going to be tough, we all know that,” Hughes said. “But that’s why we’ve got guys like Pup [Clarke] and Punter [Ponting] in our team.”They faced spin bowling beautifully in the one-day games so I’ve spoken to them as much as possible … but it’s about getting out there and doing the work. I’m a huge fan of Justin, he’s a great coach, so I’ll just go out and do as much work as possible, and hopefully it pays off.”

Depois de um longo período de pré-temporada aguardando o início da Série B1 do Campeonato Carioca, a preparação do Carapebus, sob o comando do técnico Samarone Oliveira, está na reta final. Além dos treinos, realizados em Barcelos, em São João da Barra, a equipe disputou alguns jogos-treino com o intuito de aumentar o ritmo de jogo dos atletas. O treinador fez sua avaliação do período e também dos jogadores do elenco que vai jogar a Segundona.

– A avaliação é positiva. Com todas dificuldades que um clube de baixo investimento encara, vejo meu grupo como preparado para os desafios. Um grupo jovem, mas com uma postura aguerrida, sabem o que querem e o que precisa ser feito. Acho que mostraremos muita coisa boa no decorrer desse campeonato – comentou o técnico do Carapebus.

Pela frente, a equipe do Norte Fluminense terá diversos adversários tradicionais, outros emergentes e alguns que estão apostando nas contratações. Com diversas equipes distintas, a expectativa é por equilíbrio para alcançar as tão sonhadas vagas na elite do futebol carioca. Samarone sabe quais serão os desafios que a equipe vai encontrar pela frente, mas vê tal situação para todos os postulantes.

– A expectativa pelo início do campeonato é grande. Acredito que será uma das edições mais badaladas da Séreie B1. Acredito que iremos encontrar algumas dificuldades por conta dos nossos adversários, mas todos vão passar pelo mesmo. Vejo os clubes se preparando muito para essa disputa. E quem ganha com isso somos nós, que fazemos parte, e mais ainda os torcedores, que estarão sempre vendo bons jogos – concluiu o treinador.

A estreia do Carapebus na Série B1 do Campeonato Carioca está marcada para o próximo domingo. O primeiro adversário será o Bonsucesso, em jogo marcado para Moça Bonita, em Bangu, na cidade do Rio de Janeiro.
