David Beckham

2008-03-21T03:59:00.001-07:00

Fabio Capello believes David Beckham still has much to offer the England team after including the midfielder in his provisional squad to play France next week.

Beckham will be hopeful of winning his 100th cap in Paris on Wednesday, while Arsenal's Theo Walcott and Middlesbrough's central defender David Wheater have also been called up to the squad.

Capello had sent his number two Franco Baldini to the USA to watch Beckham in action in a pre-season friendly, and also spoke to his coach at Los Angeles Galaxy, Ruud Gullit.

The England manager said: "I always said that when David Beckham was fit he could be in the squad.

"I have had good reports on him from Franco Baldini, who watched him on Saturday night, and also from his club. I know a lot about David Beckham and what he can offer the team."

Capello said the fact England under-21s have a friendly rather than competitive game next week allowed him to pick Walcott, 19, and Wheater, 21.

He added: "Theo Walcott and David Wheater are two good young players who have done very well for the Under-21s this season and when I have seen them play for their clubs.

"Stuart Pearce has given me excellent recommendations on both players. Next week Stuart has a friendly match so it is a good opportunity for us to consider some of the younger players for the senior squad."

Capello also made special mention of Michael Owen and Joe Cole in matches he was watched this week.

"I saw Michael Owen play for Newcastle on Monday at Birmingham," said the Italian. "I felt he looked sharp, very alive and it was good to see him scoring.

"I should also mention Joe Cole who I thought was excellent last night for Chelsea in a very exciting game. He had a massive impact."

Portsmouth striker Jermain Defoe has also been included while Chelsea pair John Terry and Frank Lampard, who missed Capello's first game in charge due to injury, are also in.

Those named in Capello's first 30-man squad in January who miss out this time are Micah Richards and Curtis Davies, both injured, as well as Ledley King, Nicky Shorey, Michael Carrick and Emile Heskey.

Capello has not named his captain against France - he has said he wants to try different plays for deciding on a permanent choice. Steven Gerrard had the armband against Switzerland last month and Terry or Rio Ferdinand are the favourites for this game.

Most of the focus will be on Beckham though and the 32-year-old has convinced Capello that he is fit enough after several pre-season games with Los Angeles Galaxy.

It also seems very unlikely that Capello will not keep him in his thinned-down 23-man squad that he will confirm on Saturday evening.

Walcott's inclusion was also anticipated as the 19-year-old's recent performances for Arsenal, including a notable cameo against AC Milan, were known to have caught Capello's eye.

Ronaldinho.

2008-03-21T03:58:00.000-07:00

Barcelona star Ronaldinho has hit back at his critics, vowing: "They will not destroy me."

Ronaldinho, who has been dogged by injuries this campaign, has seemed a shadow of his former self over the past year.

And discontent with the Brazil international reached a peak on Monday when a scan revealed that he is not suffering from any injury, despite his claims to the contrary.

An official club statement on Monday afternoon confirmed that no evidence of injury could be found by Barcelona's medical staff, but Ronaldinho has slammed reports doubting his commitment to the Catalan giants.

"Apparently there are jealous people who want to destroy me with these rumours," Ronaldinho told Vanity Fair.

"They won't do it. Nobody destroys Ronaldinho.

"No critic in the world can take away my spirit.

"I am so motivated, more than I have been for a long time. Criticism encourages me to be better."

Ronaldinho has played just seven full games in 28 league fixtures so far this season, and has been repeatedly linked with a move away from the Nou Camp - with AC Milan and Chelsea among several clubs waiting to snap him up.

But the 27-year-old has rubbished rumours that he wants to leave Barcelona, vowing to recover his form and fitness to lead them to the Primera Liga crown.

"Barcelona can only win great titles with a strong Ronaldinho," the former World player of the year continued.

"Without titles life is boring, and if you don't play, it's very very frustrating. You can't continue like that.

"This year I want to be a champion with Barcelona, whatever it costs.

"I have a stunning future with this club. The lads are my family. At Barca I am as happy as I was the first day.

"I want to stay here and I will do everything possible to be the best again."

Coach Frank Rijkaard omitted the Brazilian from Thursday's Copa del Rey semi-final return leg at Valencia, saying he was not fit for the tie.

"(Wednesday) was the first day (Ronaldinho) has trained with the team for several days," Rijkaard told club website www.fcbarcelona.cat.

"He wanted to play but we left him out as a precautionary measure.

Berlusconi offers Ronaldo hope

2008-03-04T19:47:00.001-08:00

AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi has revealed Ronaldo will be offered a new contract if the 31-year-old shows the will to return from a career-threatening knee injury.

The Brazilian's contract is due to expire in June, but he is expected to be sidelined until November after undergoing surgery on ruptured knee ligaments in Paris last month.

"I think Ronaldo will remain with us, and if he wants, he can still be a key player," Berlusconi told Sky Italia.

"He has already had a knee injury like this and been able to recover.

"If he still wants it he can, for he is very young at 31, and we have (Paolo) Maldini who will be 40 who is an example for us.

Davey gears up for Blues

2008-03-04T19:46:00.001-08:00

Barnsley boss Simon Davey turned his attention to the weekend's glamour FA Cup quarter-final with Chelsea after securing a 1-1 draw at Blackpool.

Jamal Campbell-Ryce struck in first-half injury time as the struggling Tykes claimed a Coca-Cola Championship point after Gary Taylor-Fletcher's opener.

Davey was pleased with the performance and put it down to his players trying to impress ahead of the Stamford Bridge tie.

"I put out a side to get a result and I am happy with that," Davey said.

"Blackpool played some good football in the first half but we came back strongly and the players showed a great deal of character.

"We have had three draws on the trot and over that time my players have had the chance to stake a claim for the match at Chelsea on Saturday.

"They will have their day off and I will be sitting down to reflect about the team I will choose for that game.

"They all want to play against the Lampards and Drogbas and I'm sure there are one or two players who came back in contention tonight like (Sam) Togwell and (Kayode) Odejayi, who will be in with a chance."

Blackpool dominated the first half with Taylor-Fletcher threatening several times.

The Seasiders forward found the net in the 20th minute when the striker headed home - and his side looked set to extend their lead as they continued to force the pace.

But the visitors pulled level with the half drawing to a close, Campbell-Ryce latching on to Odejayi's pass to score his second goal of the season.

Blackpool boss Simon Grayson said: "It was a decent game, we started well and on another day we might have taken all three points.

"We looked a few times as if we might get that second goal and I'm sure we would have won the game if we'd managed that but it never quite happened for us.

"The players worked hard and showed some good quality at times but it wasn't quite enough.

"The expectations have gone up and possibly it's the most decent run we've been on, but Barnsley are a good side and you don't just have to turn up to beat them."

In League One, Doncaster striker Paul Heffernan netted in the third minute to give his side a 1-0 win over FA Cup quarter-finalists Bristol Rovers at the Memorial Stadium.

The result means Doncaster leapfrog Carlisle, who defeated Nottingham Forest on Monday night, into the second automatic promotion place.

Andrew Crofts (four, 76) scored twice for Gillingham - but his side remain in trouble in the relegation zone after a 4-2 away defeat to Brighton.

The Gills were reduced to nine men after Sean Clohessy and Garry Richards were sent off - while Nicky Forster (23), Adam El-Abd (43), Tommy Elphick (45) and Jake Robinson (78) found the net for the home side.

Elsewhere, Michael Mackay (74) gave Hartlepool a 1-0 win over Oldham - and Swindon were reduced to nine men but held on to claim a 3-2 win over Huddersfield at the County Ground.

A fourth-minute strike from Billy Paynter and two from Craig Easton (23, 31) put the Robins in control - but two penalties from Phil Jevons (39, 77) pulled the visitors back into contention.

Lee Peacock and Paynter were both sent off, but Swindon held on.

In League Two, Peterborough claimed a 2-0 win over a Barnet side reduced to 10 men at Underhill.

Dean Keates (32) and Jamie Day (90) scored for Posh, while Jason Puncheon was sent off in the 34th minute.

Darlington striker Pawel Abbott scored in the 27th minute to give his side a 1-0 home win over Chester which kept the pressure up on the top two.

Bury boosted their hopes of avoiding relegation with a 4-1 thrashing of Brentford at Griffin Park.

Andy Bishop (37,83) scored twice, and Nicky Adams (13) and Glynn Hurst (15) grabbed a goal each for the Shakers - while Glenn Poole converted a 56th-minute penalty for the home side.

Series win critical to build team, says Dhoni

2008-03-04T19:35:00.000-08:00

ndian captain MS Dhoni Tuesday said the Commonwealth Bank tri-series win was "important because this is the building stage of my team".

Speaking at the post-match presentation, Dhoni said he was proud of the way his team had performed in "the toughest conditions and against the toughest team in the world"."It can't get better than this. And beating Australia in two consecutive finals was a great feeling.""We played well throughout the series, but the important thing was that we improved as a unit," he added.The Indian skipper was most happy with the batsmen coming to the party at the right time."The batting came through at the right time. Sachin gave us the start wen we needed it the most."Asked about today's target, which seemed a bit short at the end of the Indian batting, he said: "There was some areas of concern in the Australian batting and we knew that they would have to score as much as we scored."He credited Praveen Kumar for some excellent bowling. The bowler's four-wicket haul earned him the Man of the Match award."Praveen looks quite deceptive. He's a skiddy customer and conditions like this it really helps him," he said.

England have made two changes to their line-up for the opening Test against New Zealand as they attempt to bounce back from their pre-Christmas defeat in Sri Lanka.

The tourists made the unexpected decision to announce their team a day before the Test starts at Seddon Park on Wednesday and confirmed wayward spearhead Steve Harmison would keep his place in the attack.

Andrew Strauss returns to the line-up to bat at number three for the first time in his Test career and replaces Ravi Bopara, who was dropped from the Test squad for New Zealand after scoring only 42 runs in three Tests in Sri Lanka.

New wicketkeeper Tim Ambrose is also poised to make his debut as a replacement for Matt Prior, who was also dropped after the Sri Lanka tour.

Otherwise the England line-up is as expected and Harmison, Matthew Hoggard and Ryan Sidebottom, who has recovered from a right hamstring strain, will form their seam attack with Monty Panesar providing the spin option.

England team for first Test against New Zealand: Michael Vaughan (Yorkshire, captain), Alistair Cook (Essex), Andrew Strauss (Middlesex), Kevin Pietersen (Hampshire), Ian Bell (Warwickshire), Paul Collingwood (Durham), Tim Ambrose (Warwickshire, wicketkeeper), Ryan Sidebottom (Nottinghamshire), Matthew Hoggard (Yorkshire), Steve Harmison (Durham), Monty Panesar (Northamptonshire).

Milan test holds no fears for Fabregas

2008-03-04T09:28:00.002-08:00

Arsenal held onto top spot in the Barclays Premier League on Saturday by virtue of a stoppage-time equaliser from substitute Nicklas Bendtner which rescued a last-gasp draw against Aston Villa.

Fabregas felt that result - dug out when everything seemed to be going against the Gunners following a difficult week in the wake of Eduardo's horrific leg injury at Birmingham - showed this squad have the mental strength needed to mount a sustained assault for the game's biggest honours.

However, for the 2006 Champions League runners-up to progress into the last eight of this season's elite European club competition, Arsenal will have to do it the hard way.

Standing in their path are the current holders, who secured a goalless draw at Emirates Stadium two weeks ago and possess a star-studded squad capable of taking any team apart - as Manchester United found out when they ventured to Italy last year.

Wenger has pledged not to give Brazilian playmaker Kaka any special treatment, other than to cut off the supply chain to the gifted 25-year-old as the Gunners did a fortnight ago in north London when the World Player of the Year had only a limited impact.

Fabregas, however, insists there will be sense of Arsenal being over-awed at their task.

Indeed, but for the width of a crossbar in stoppage-time when Emmanuel Adebayor failed to convert a close-range header at Emirates Stadium, the Gunners could have been defending a slender lead tomorrow night.

"We are young, but we are not scared of anything and we will play our game," declared 20-year-old Spaniard Fabregas.

"You have always seen if we are winning or losing, we will never go to defend.

"We will always want to attack, because it is the way we like to play and enjoy playing.

"You take the risk that sometimes you will draw or lose, of course, but we enjoy it - and any football fans should be proud there are teams like Arsenal who want to play football always, not to defend."

Fabregas added: "We are playing against Milan, a big team with a lot of medals in their pockets.

"It will be interesting to see how we respond to that.

"We will play at the San Siro for the first time, and think we can do well if we play 100% and maybe we can cause a surprise."

Arsenal have certainly been through a steep learning curve this season, with Fabregas one of several players taking up the mantle following the departure of long-time talisman Thierry Henry to Barcelona during the summer.

Nevertheless, many still consider the Gunners outsiders for the Premier League title - with United having swiftly clawed back what was a five-point deficit to just one.

Fabregas believes the past six months have left Wenger's young squad in a strong position for the run-in.

However, the midfielder knows all that hard work will be for nothing should performances levels not be maintained right through until May.

Fabregas declared: "We have always said that the most important part of the season is coming now - but if you do not do well at the beginning, there is no important part at the end.

On-form United looking for European glory

2008-03-04T09:27:00.001-08:00

victory over Lyon will see his side equal Juventus' record in the competition of ten straight home victories in the competition.

The match is finely balanced after the first leg in France finished all square at 1-1.

United breezed past Sporting Lisbon, Dynamo Kyiv and Roma this season at home.

That gave them a firm foothold in the group stages and they finished first in style.

Asked why United are so formidable at Old Trafford in Europe against top teams, Ferguson replied: "We have been good."

He added: "Our home record in European football has been the foundation of our group successes.

"I have said it many times you need ten points to qualify. If you get three home wins it is a big help. It means you only need a point on the road.

"The atmosphere at Old Trafford helps. There is a big stimulant for the fans to come to European nights.

"The players also increase their expectation levels to do well in these games."

Lyon extended their lead at the top of the French League at the weekend when they defeated Lille in front of a record French crowd of 78,000 at the Stade de France and Ferguson expects a difficult game.

Rafa wowed by power of Babel

2008-03-03T07:58:00.000-08:00

The winger scored his eighth goal of the season in Sunday`s 3-1 Barclays Premier League victory against Bolton.Babel was on target with a clinical finish after a bizarre own-goal from Jussi Jaaskelainen in the 11th minute.Steven Gerrard's effort was going wide but the Bolton goalkeeper inexplicably helped it into his own net with his face.There was no way back for Wanderers after that and Fabio Aurelio added a spectacular third before Tamir Cohen scored a consolation for the struggling home side.Babel could now have a more prominent role to play in the coming weeks of the season.Benitez said: "It was a good game for him against Bolton as they were looking out for Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres."It meant that Ryan had more freedom and he is the kind of player who can run behind defenders."Liverpool now entertain West Ham on Wednesday in good heart after this comfortable victory.Benitez said: "Every win is important when you are fighting for fourth place. You need to put the other teams around you under pressure and we have done that."As we have a game in hand, it depends on what we do. You do not need to see the table every day."If we can win against West Ham then we go go into the game after that with confidence."Benitez reiterated he is content at Anfield and claimed his focus was on winning matches and not his future plans.

Puyol back Catalans to recover

2008-03-02T09:00:00.000-08:00

Barca could have gone top of the Primera Liga standings if results had gone their way on Saturday, but their defeat at the Vicente Calderon and Real Madrid's 3-2 victory at Recreative Huelva means there is now five points between the top two.Frank Rijkaard's men had been unbeaten for all 15 of their competitive matches in 2008 and they looked on course to extend that run when Ronaldinho put them ahead against Atletico with a superb overhead kick in the first half.But two quickfire goals from Atletico's Argentinian duo Sergio Aguero and Maxi Rodriguez gave the home side a scarcely-deserved half-time advantage, and Barca could find no way back in the second half."They had a good day and us a bad one," said Puyol."We had the game under control and in a five-minute spell it has escaped us. Their first goal was bad luck, the second has caused us a lot of damage and with the penalty they have broken the game."Atletico are always motivated against Barca and here they have come out very well."The changing room is hurt, but as we have shown at other times, we will move forward."Puyol's defensive partner Gabriel Milito added on his club's website: "We have played a good first half up until their equaliser."At the break we could not understand how we were losing. In the second half we have looked to draw level and ended up conceding two more goals.

Sachin wanted to change SCG statistic

2008-03-02T08:59:00.000-08:00

Sachin Tendulkar said India had never won a game against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground and he wanted to change that statistic in the first final of the CB Series on Sunday.

Sachin's 117 not out helped India beat Australia by six wickets in the first final and also earned him the Man of the Match award. At the end of the match, a poster read: "Sachin Cricket Ground".

"It is wonderful to end up on a winning note. I just saw that we had never won a game at the SCG and we wated to change that," he said.

Sachin also praised Rohit Sharma for a "terriffic effort".

"Rohit batted well and the partnership was crucial. Today, I batted with him for such a long time. He has a terriffic future," he added.

About his first ODI hundred in Australia, Tendulkar said: "I have been wanting to get an ODI hundred in Australia but in the last series I missed a few. Considering that this was the first final and we restricted them to 239, it was important to get the second half correct as well."

Dhoni praises Sachin ton

2008-03-02T08:14:00.002-08:00

Indian captain MS Dhoni said it was a "pleasure" to see Sachin Tendulkar bring up his first ODI hundred in Australia, one that set up the six-wicket win in the first final of the CB Series at Sydney on Sunday.

Chasing 240 to win, India reached the target with just over four overs to spare with Tendulkar playing right through the innings to finish at 117 not out."It's always a pleasure to see him bat. He ran well, he got the boundaries and he carried the youngsters with him," Dhoni said at the post-match presentation.e wanted to prove a point, the whole team enjoyed the innings," he added.Dhoni, who brough up the winning runs with a boundary, said in hindsight losing the tossdid not matter much."We got the wickets at the crucial time and Harbhajan and Piyush Chawla bowled very well. Australia were at one stage looking to score over 300, but it's good that we were able to contain them," he said, adding that they had to concentrate on the next game at Brisbane.

Meanwhile, losing captain Ricky Ponting said his team had put in a "sloppy" performance.

"It was a sloppy performance not only from the batsmen but from the bowlers as well. And Sachin just got into the groove for India,

Sunitha lone Indian survivor

Sunitha Rao was the lone Indian girl who survived through the first round of the qualifying matches for the USD 600,000 WTA Bangalore Open on Saturday.

Sunitha overcame a stiff challenge from Russian Vesna Manasieva with a 6-4, 2-6, 7-5 win at the Kantaka State Lawn Tennis Association Stadium.

However, the other four Indians -- the Bhambri sisters, Ankita and Saana, Rushmi Chakravarthi and Akshitha Basavaraju -- were outplayed by better placed foreign rivals.

Saana did her best in extending her Austrian rival Monique Adamczak in the match that went the full distance, while her other three compatriots lost out in straight sets.

United close in on Arsenal

2008-03-01T20:46:00.000-08:00

A below-par Gunners were held to a 1-1 draw by Aston Villa at the Emirates Stadium which allowed Sir Alex Ferguson's side to move within striking distance of the leaders.

Hargreaves was presented with an opportunity to open the scoring for United in the 15th minute after Cottagers midfielder Danny Murphy fouled striker Carlos Tevez on the edge of the penalty area.

The former Bayern Munich midfielder took the free-kick and fooled goalkeeper Antti Niemi with a shot which curled around the wall before it dipped into the bottom left corner to give him his first goal in a United shirt.

Park Ji-Sung added the second a minute before the break when he capped a fine team move to head home a Paul Scholes cross from close range.

Fulham midfielder Simon Davies put John O'Shea's cross through his own net in the 72nd minute to compound the misery for Roy Hodgson's side, who are now six points below safety.

Nicklas Bendtner struck with the last kick of the game from inside the six-yard box to rescue a point for Arsenal.

Philippe Senderos scored a 27th-minute own goal to give Villa a 1-0 lead over Arsene Wenger's side in a match in which the visitors outplayed their opponents but Bendtner levelled in the fourth minute of injury-time.

Chelsea responded from their Carling Cup final defeat to Tottenham with an emphatic 4-0 victory over West Ham at Upton Park despite being reduced to 10 men.

Frank Lampard opened the scoring in the 17th minute from the penalty spot after Anton Ferdinand fouled Salomon Kalou inside the penalty area.

The Blues made it 2-0 three minutes later when Nicolas Anelka picked out Joe Cole on the left edge of the box and the midfielder drilled his low shot past goalkeeper Robert Green.

Michael Ballack added a third in the 22nd minute after he smashed home a spectacular half-volley from 18 yards following good work by Joe Cole down the left flank.

Lampard was sent off in the 36th minute for violent conduct but Avram Grant's side continued to dominate and Ashley Cole (64) completed the scoring with a neat close-range finish after Green had parried Joe Cole's initial shot.

A Mikael Forssell hat-trick helped boost Birmingham's chances of avoiding the drop as they recorded a 4-1 win over lacklustre Spurs side at St Andrews.

The Finland international opened the scoring in the seventh minute when he was able to direct a header from a James McFadden cross past Paul Robinson and into the bottom-left corner of the net.

Sebastian Larsson added a second in the 55th minute with a superb free-kick which he curled over the wall and into the bottom-left corner before Forssell capitalised on indecision in the visitors' defence to neatly strike home.

Forssell completed his hat-trick in the 81st minute with a low finish from inside the penalty area, handing Birmingham their biggest win of the season. Jermaine Jenas scored a late consolation for the visitors.

Kevin Keegan's search for a first win since he returned to Newcastle continued after his side suffered a 1-0 defeat to Blackburn at St James' Park after Matt Derbyshire struck in injury-time.

Reading ended their eight-game losing streak with a 1-0 win over Middlesbrough at the Riverside thanks to a James Harper goal in added time, while Sunderland were frustrated by Derby in a goalless draw at Pride Park.

Rossi gives thumbs-up to first night race

2008-02-29T20:54:00.000-08:00

It will be the first time a night race is taking place and the MotoGP organisers are already excited about the prospect of staging the event.Even Valentino Rossi has jumped on the bandwagon – citing he was ‘happy’ with the race conditions.Said the Yamaha rider: "There was a lot of curiosity about this night test and I have to say that I am quite satisfied. I think they have made a great job with the lights and you can ride quite normally, as if it's day."The visibility is quite good so there is no danger for us. It's really no more difficult than riding in the day. Maybe it would be better to move this night race to a period when the temperature is a little bit higher, however, because at the moment it is very cold here."Despite setting the fastest pace on the first day of testing, current world champion Casey Stoney is wary of the challenges night racing pose."It's definitely different to what we're used to," explained Stoner. "It's not better or worse - it's just different.

Leeds Rhinos 11-4 Melbourne Storm

2008-02-29T20:53:00.000-08:00

The Rhinos ground out a tense win in a match of largely uncompromising defence in front of a bumper crowd of 33,204 at Elland Road to become the seventh Super League winners in the last nine clashes of the champions.

With both sides scoring a first-half try on a squally night, the difference was provided by Leeds captain and man of the match Kevin Sinfield with three goals and a drop goal but it was very much a team effort.

The triumph also maintained Brian McClennan's 100% record as Leeds coach on what must surely be his favourite ground, the venue for New Zealand's 24-0 Tri-Nations win over Australia in 2005.

The Rhinos played most of the game without the influential Danny McGuire, who suffered a serious-looking shoulder injury, and also lost centre Clinton Toopi with a dislocated shoulder, but it was a night made for mud-wrestlers rather than fleet-footed athletes.

It was all in sharp contrast to Leeds' free-flowing 39-32 win over Canterbury Bulldogs on a fast Elland Road surface three years earlier.

Melbourne had given themselves every chance of halting Britain's impressive run in this event by arriving 10 days in advance, earlier than any of their predecessors, and they were able to field 11 members of their Grand Final-winning team.

The Australians defended heroically but lacked sharpness on attack to seriously trouble a superbly-organised home defence.

Leeds demonstrated their resolve in the early stages by bringing down the dangerous Israel Folau and veteran Matt Geyer inches short of the tryline.

They went in front courtesy of Sinfield's first penalty goal, awarded after Melbourne full-back Billy Slater passed off the ground in front of his own posts.

Melbourne's acting captain Cooper Cronk, who was at the heart of virtually every attacking move, was responsible for the breakthrough with a pinpoint pass to second rower Ryan Hoffman in the 15th minute.

Genco "displeasure" over CSA row

2008-02-29T20:34:00.002-08:00

CSA became embroiled in a race row ahead of the tour when president Norman Arendse twice rejected coach Mickey Arthur's 14-man squad as the list did not contain at least seven players of colour.

In the ensuing controversy Arthur was removed from the Proteas three-man selection panel before being re-instated.

Arendse and CSA chief executive Gerald Majola then issued a statement of apology where they assumed "full responsibility for not handling the issue in a manner that preserves the integrity and reputation of the sport".

And despite voicing their concern at the manner in which the matter was handled, the general council (Genco) backed the leadership of CSA in a statement released following a meeting with Arendse and Majola in Johannesburg on Friday.

"Genco expressed its displeasure in the manner in which the recent events had been handled," the statement said.

"The president and the CEO expressed their commitment and made an undertaking to work together for the good of cricket in South Africa and to follow processes laid down by CSA in dealing with such issues.

Mascherano signs four-year deal

2008-02-29T20:34:00.001-08:00

The Argentina midfielder has been at Anfield since ending a brief stint at West Ham and until Friday was on a long-term loan deal from owners MSI.

"I am very, very happy and now I can concentrate just on playing football," Mascherano told Liverpoolfc.tv.

"I said all along that I wanted to stay at Liverpool and now that I have signed I can say this is the best and the biggest moment in my career so far.

"From the first day I arrived at Liverpool the feeling was good and I knew this was where I wanted to play my football.

"It's good news for me and my family that everything is sorted and I know where my future is going to be. I just want to do my best for the fans and the people of the club.

"I am at a top side and I know I can win titles here. That's the big thing for me. I want to be at a club where we can win trophies and have success."

Manager Rafael Benitez was just as delighted to secure the services of the 23-year-old midfielder.

"We must be really pleased with the situation now," said the boss.

"He has been a key player for us since he has been here and now we know he can be a key player in our future.

"From the start we knew Javier was a player with quality and a fantastic mentality. We knew the player when he was in the reserves at River Plate but was playing for the senior national team and we had been monitoring his career since then.

McLaren lucky Hamilton not in a Ferrari

2008-02-29T20:22:00.000-08:00

With pre-season testing now over and the opening race of the new season in Australia a fortnight away, Williams feels Ferrari will be the team to beat, but that Hamilton is arguably the best driver on the grid - better than world champion Kimi Raikkonen.

Hamilton set Formula One alight last season, smashing all sorts of rookie records and winning four grands prix, only to finish a single point behind Raikkonen following a thrilling conclusion to an astonishing year.

The 22-year-old, in a bid to atone for so narrowly missing out on glory, has pushed himself to the limit during the winter to ensure he is more physically and mentally prepared than at any stage last season.

But Williams feels if Hamilton were Raikkonen's team-mate at Ferrari then there would more than likely be only one outcome due to the former's work ethic and fastidious attitude.

"I would say he (Hamilton) will do better this year," said Williams, speaking at the Royal Automobile Club on Pall Mall in London.

"Saying that, Ferrari look quicker for most of the time on long runs - unless McLaren are sandbagging - so he is going to have his work cut out.

"But if the Ferrari is the better car this year, McLaren should be saying to themselves 'thank God he is not in a Ferrari, otherwise there would be no point going racing'."

Asked whether he felt Hamilton was a better driver than Raikkonen, the boss of Williams replied: "I don't know Kimi well.

"He is a gifted driver, as good as anybody, but Kimi's weakness is that he is not that interested.

"So if a man of equal skill, let's say, turns up in an identical car, with one working harder than the other, it is more likely that that man would have the upper hand.

"But it isn't going to happen is it? It's all hypothetical."

Certainly it is hard for Williams to compare Hamilton alongside many of motor racing's greats of the past at this same stage of their careers, but he insists the 22-year-old "is very special".

"It's all subjective. Every decade, or maybe longer than that, nature throws up someone who is supremely gifted," added Williams.

"To put a razor blade between him and Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart or Jochen Rindt. How do you do that? You can't. They're not here any more.

"But what I see from a distance is that he is very well advised, I presume by his family, and for such a young person he has a wise head on his shoulders.

Latvala steals a march

2008-02-29T20:21:00.000-08:00

Finnish driver Latvala won just one of the morning's opening three stages but that was enough to open up a 4.4sec lead over Loeb at the head of the standings.The 22-year-old continued to impress in the afternoon loop, steadily increasing his lead over world champion Loeb with wins on stages five and six."Today has been a surprise for me to be honest," said Latvala. "We had a very good start in the morning and were able to keep the pace in the afternoon again."We were a little bit faster than Sebastien so it's been a good day."I certainly got a confidence boost from Sweden, but the whole package is working well now - the feeling, the set-up, the car, co-driver, pace-notes - it's all come together well."The Citroen C4 of Loeb claimed two wins on the opening three stages but the four-time reigning champion admitted he had nothing left to give in pursuit of the in-form Latvala."I cannot go faster," said Loeb, who failed to score in Sweden after rlling early in the rally."I really tried hard and pushed to the maximum this morning, and there is nothing more to do."I think I did good stages with no mistakes, a perfect line and very fast everywhere, but the time is not there."I think Jari is just driving very good stages, keeping on the line and making no mistakes."We will speak with the engineers this evening to see if we can do something on the car and then just try and do better tomorrow."Latvala's team-mate Mikko Hirvonen, who leads the championship after two rounds, finished the opening leg in fifth place - 70 seconds off the lead - after being delayed when he hit a rock and picked up a slow puncture on stage four.

The Subarus again underlined their early-season promise by finishing the day in third and fourth place, Chris Atkinson 40 seconds clear of Petter Solberg.Atkinson finished the first leg less than 13 seconds shy of Loeb and declared himself pleased with his efforts."If we had the handling a little bit better I think we could be much quicker, but it's still a good day," he said.Another driver with reason to be cheerful was Britain's Matthew Wilson , who ended the day in seventh place behind Munchi's Ford's Henning Solberg.

WADA code set as new doping standard

2008-02-29T20:17:00.000-08:00

ndividual athletes have to provide details of where they will be for one hour on five days of the week, but FIFA and other sports have argued this is not so easy for those involved in team sports.

Meetings with WADA officials, FIFA and other international team sports are taking place in Zurich over the weekend to try to resolve the issue.

Blatter, who met new WADA president John Fahey today, told a news conference FIFA had expressed their satisfaction at the inclusion of "more flexibility for sanctions in the revised code", and that he had signed a letter of intent to sign up to the new code.

He said: "There is more flexibility in this code - what is called individual case management.

"There are ongoing discussions on the 'whereabouts' between WADA and FIFA and the international team sports' federations.

"There is not yet a definite solution found but I promise before FIFA's Congress in May we will sign the new WADA code."

Fahey said the remaining issue about 'whereabouts' information was not a big problem.

He said: "There was a feeling among team sports, and FIFA was very vocal on this, that there were issues such as whereabouts that required further consultation and discussion but there is very little problem - it's about an outcome.

Murali, Jayasuriya

2008-02-29T20:16:00.000-08:00

Jayasuriya, who picked up the last Australian wicket with his first ball of the match, said: "I want to thank the Aussies. It's disappointing that we are not in the finals. We badly needed this win today and it's nice to finish like this."

The veteran batsman, who redefined batting at the top of the order, credited Mahela Jayawardene and Tilekeratne Dilshan for their batting in Friday's match. "Mahela and Dilshan batted really well, the bowlers have been bowling well and the fielding also came together," he said.

Jayasuriya added that Adam Gilchrist's wicket was the turning point of the match. "Gilchrist batted really well and his wicket was the crucial breakthrough."

Meanwhile, Muralitharan said that he was disappointed at not being able to perform at his best in Tests in Australia but was happy with his one-day performances in that country.

Khan sparkling at home

2008-02-28T23:44:00.001-08:00

he 28-year-old Khan fired a sparkling five-under-par 67 at DLF Golf and Country Club and set up the possibility of becoming the second Indian winner of a major tournament on home soil in the past month.

The slightly-built Indian was joined atop the leaderboard by Argentina’s Daniel Vancsik, who carded six birdies against a lone bogey in the US$2.5 million event dubbed the Asia Pacific’s premier golf tournament.

Khan’s stunning performance marked a memorable first day for the Indian contingent as Jeev Milkha Singh, the Asian Tour’s number one in 2006, ended the day in a share of third place alongside compatriot Rahil Gangjee and nine other players following a 68 while US-based Arjun Atwal, Shiv Kapur and Arjun Singh were a further stroke back.

Reigning Asian Tour Order of Merit champion Liang Wen-chong of China also enjoyed a solid start when he overcame a double bogey for a 69.

Three-time Major champion Vijay Singh of Fiji carded a 70 but Europe’s Ryder Cup stars Colin Montgomerie of Scotland and England’s Ian Poulter struggled with a 74 and 76 respectively.

But Kohli himself showed fine leadership qualities, hitting a crucial 43 in the middle overs having impressed with the ball earlier in the day, taking 2-27 with his niggling brand of right-arm medium pace.Shortly after the India innings had begun the lightning bolted, thunder crashed and the heavens opened as the sun set on the KL skyline. But the hard-working groundstaff at Kinrara Oval did a great job and, along with the state-of-the-art drainage system in place at the ground, the deluge had hardly any effect and once the rain stopped play resumed within 20 minutes.

With the India innings reduced to 43 overs, the target was revised down to 191 and New Zealand began well taking the wickets of Taruwar Kohli and Tanmay Srivastava (to a stunning one-handed catch by Anderson) with just 40 on the board. But the skipper and Shreevats Goswami built a strong partnership worth 84 and seemed to have the game wrapped up.Khan’s stunning performance marked a memorable first day for the Indian contingent as Jeev Milkha Singh, the Asian Tour’s number one in 2006, ended the day in a share of third place alongside compatriot Rahil Gangjee and nine other players following a 68 while US-based Arjun Atwal, Shiv Kapur and Arjun Singh were a further stroke back.Reigning Asian Tour Order of Merit champion Liang Wen-chong of China also enjoyed a solid start when he overcame a double bogey for a 69.

The marquee names at the Johnnie Walker Classic endured mixed days. World number five Adam Scott of Australia battled into the mix with a 68 and could have led on his own if not for a double bogey on his 16th hole when he sprayed his tee shot into the water.Three-time Major champion Vijay Singh of Fiji carded a 70 but Europe’s Ryder Cup stars Colin Montgomerie of Scotland and England’s Ian Poulter struggled with a 74 and 76 respectively.

Volcano' primed for controlled explosion

2008-02-22T08:45:00.000-08:00

Tongan juggernaut Vainikolo has endured a frustrating introduction to the Test arena following his high-profile switch from rugby league.Although he created a try fogr Toby Flood in England's tournament opener against Wales three weeks ago, attacking opportunities have been at a premium.But 'The Volcano' is still bubbling, relishing an opportunity to erupt at the Stade de France Saturday night.He said: "I've had to pinch myself during the first two games to make sure I was really there. It has been an honour to put the England jersey on."I wouldn't change anything, and I am just going to stay positive and do what I do best."For me, it has been about getting to know different players. I am still learning."And it's not only about scoring tries, you want to do the hard yards as well. Sometimes, you don't get the ball for 10 or 15 minutes."In rugby league, I would touch the ball 20 times-plus per game. In union, it is about being patient and doing the little things right."England have not beaten France away in the Six Nationsince February 2000 - Vainikolo was playing for Australian rugby league side Canberra Raiders at the time - and early form this season suggests that wait could be extended by another two years.

While England lost at home to Wales for the first time since 1988, then struggled past Italy, France brushed aside Scotland and held off Ireland despite new coach Marc Lievremont blooding several unknowns.

australia qualify for final

2008-02-22T08:44:00.000-08:00

he Sri Lankans, who must now win their final two games of the competition to stand any chance of joining the Australians in the best-of-three finals series, had looked on course to claim a rare victory against the Australians when they restricted the hosts to 184 for seven.

Half centuries from middle-order batsmen Michael Hussey (64 not out) and Michael Clarke (50) helped Australia to build a competitive target in difficult batting conditions after their top order had faltered.However, in reply the tourists struggled to keep up with the modest run rate on the slow MCG pitch, and despite hope the players might re-appear after they were forced from the field in the 30th over with Sri Lanka on 77 for four, the rain persisted before play was called off.
Sri Lanka had lost eight of their previous nine one-day internationals against Australia, including last year's World Cup final, and their hopes of chasing down the modest target were immediately undermined by paceman Stuart Clark who struck twice to leave them at three for two.Clark's first act was to dismiss the dangerous Sanath Jayasuriya for a first-ball duck in just the second over. The veteran left-hander waved a loose drive at a delivery that left him marginally to present Ricky Ponting with a simple catch at second slip.Clark struck again in his next over when he trapped opener Dilruwan Perera (one) on the crease and things could have got worse for the tourists when Andrew Symonds flung himself acrobatically at a Kumar Sangakkara cover drive, but could only get fingertips to the difficult chance.Sangakkara and captain Mahela Jayawardene then set about reconstructing the Sri Lankan innings in painstaking fashion as they reached the 15-over mark with just 33 runs on the board.However, two overs later Jayawardene's caution proved to be his downfall as he half-heartedly attempted to run a Nathan Bracken delivery through the vacant slip area only to get a faint edge to Adam Gilchrist while on 27.The Sri Lankan captain left the field admonishing himself and the Australian sensed their opportunity to press home their advantage with the forecast rain threatening to fall and the Sri Lankans falling behind in the Duckworth-Lewis calculations.Sangakkara sought invention to break the shackles but he was dismissed attempting a leg-side flick which ballooned up off a leading edge to Symonds, who this time made no mistake in pouching the easy chance, to end the wicketkeeper-batsman's innings of 22 from 59 balls.Gilchrist then dropped a chance to stump Tillakaratne Dilshan off the bowling of fellow Western Australian Brad Hogg, but soon after the rain fell to end the tourists hopes.Earlier, Hussey's 12th one-day international half-century, which also saw him reach 2000 limited overs runs, coupled with a composed knock from captain-in-waiting Clarke helped the Australians recover from 54 for four in the 22nd over.

After Adam Gilchrist (six) was bowled by Chaminda Vaas attempting a cross-bat slog, Farveez Maharoof had Matthew Hayden (23) caught at short extra cover before displaying his athleticism to run out Ponting (11).

The Australia captain, who had earlier been given a reprieve when Dilshan spilled a chance at gully, set off for a single when he pushed the ball back down the ground.

However Maharoof dove to his right and threw the ball to Sangakkara who whipped off the bails with Ponting well out of his ground.

I have been undervalued, says Ponting

2008-02-21T21:31:00.001-08:00

Australian captain Ricky Ponting was not impressed at the low price he managed in the historic IPL players’ auctions in Mumbai.

Ponting was bought over by Indian film star Shah Rukh Khan for his Kolkata team for 400,000 dollars.''I thought I might have been able to attract a little bit more than that,'' Ponting was quoted by the local media in Australia.''The fact that I haven't made a lot of runs over the last couple of weeks probably hasn't helped much. But realistically, we as Australian players probably won't be able to take part in the first couple of years of the event anyway,'' he said.

Ponting said there would be no hard feelings in the dressing room following the biddings. “We would have light-hearted banters amongst ourselves

f ever there was a man in Indian cricket, who put team before self it has to be none other than VVS Laxman who surrendered his icon status just a day before the IPL players' bids.

VVS Laxman was among the final few to be elevated to the icon status, which the Hyderabad team franchisee owners, Deccan Chronicle had demanded from the IPL governing council.
But on Tuesday, VVS Laxman gave it away so that his team could have a larger budget for buying players at the auction on Wednesday."Laxman has been named as captain of the Hyderabad team. He gave away the icon status as he wanted Hyderabad to have a larger budget. He showed fine sportsman's spirit," said P K Iyer, managing director of Deccan Chronicle, after buying the veteran cricketer for USD 375,000.Laxman's move enabled Hyderabad to successfully bid USD 1.35 million for Andrew Symonds and also pick up players like RP Singh, Rohit Sharma, Adam Gilchrist, Shahid Afridi and Herschelle Gibbs among others.

The IPL has conferred icon status on Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Rahul Dravid and Yuvraj Singh to rule them out of the auctioning process and then added Virender Sehwag to that list when Delhi franchisees GMR demanded it.

Prabodh Tirkey is skipper for Olympic qualifiers

2008-02-19T08:48:00.000-08:00

Diwakar was rewarded with a place in the squad for his consistent showing in junior tournaments. Striker Ajitesh Rai is the other youngster who has got into the squad on the strength of his good showing in the Premier Hockey League (PHL) and various international assignments at the junior level.With the stress firmly on penalty corner conversions, another specialist V R Raghunath has also been included in the lineup. Ragunath was an automatic choice for the selectors in the absence of Sandeep Singh, who opted out of the preparatory camp on health grounds.
Old warhorse Dilip Tirkey and his understudy William Xalxo will be in charge of the defence.
The experienced duo of Bimal Lakra and Ignace Tirkey will be the main playmakers and the quartet of captain Prabodh Tirkey, Sardara Singh, Vikram Kanth and Gurbaj Singh will man the midfield.The onus of the attack will be on Rajpal Singh, highest goal-scorer in Asia Cup Prabhjot Singh, Tushar Khandekar and Shivendra Singh with young blood Bharat Chikara and Ajitesh providing the back-up.As Adrian D'Souza is not fully fit, Bharat Chetri and Baljit Singh, who coincidentally were rival goalkeepers in the PHL finals this year, have been picked for guarding the Indian post.

World body to consider Cup cut

2008-02-17T08:47:00.000-08:00

The new format would include the top four teams from two groups of seven progressing to the quarter-final knockout stage.The Board of Control for Cricket in India reiterated its commitment to international cricket in the wake of the much-hyped Indian Premier League and insisted it was not requesting a window for the tournament to be made before 2012"The Members were pleased to receive very clear and unconditional commitment from the BCCI that international matches would be give absolute priority over IPL commitments," said ICC chief executive Malcolm Speed. "There has been plenty of speculation about the impact that IPL will have on the world game. "The other ICC members are supportive of the BCCI and will carefully evaluate the first year of the IPL and its wider impact on the game in other parts of the world."The 10 chief executives of Test-playing nations also reiterated they would not recognise other breakaway tournaments such as the Indian Cricket League.t is also proposed to make greater use of technology in future with a decision review system recommended for trial later this year.

Cup win will prove Grant is special

2008-02-15T08:46:00.000-08:00

The Carling Cup was also Mourinho's first trophy at Chelsea and that is another reason why beating Tottenham has assumed such importance for Grant in a season which has trundled on quietly but could yet deliver rich reward.

There is always a defining moment in any great race. In a yacht race it might come with a subtle shift of wind. In football it could come with an intuitive signing such as Grant's £15million capture of Nicolas Anelka.Anelka is a class act, his movement perhaps silkier than any striker in the Premier League.The key for Chelsea is whether he can perform alongside Didier Drogba, whose return from the African Nations Cup, together with Michael Essien and Salomon Kalou, gives Chelsea formidable depth as they embark on the testing run-in to the season.If he can and both can stay fit then Chelsea at last might thrill a few footballing souls, rather than merely draw admiration for their power and efficiency.The irony is that the Carling Cup final has a team capable of playing the sort of entertaining football Abramovich envisaged when he spent his £500million on Chelsea. Unfortunately for Abramovich it is Tottenham.

BlackBerry outage cripples North America

2008-02-12T05:17:00.000-08:00

The problem, which BlackBerry owner Research In Motion described as a "critical severity outage" affecting users in the Americas, once again raised concerns about the stability of the e-mail service 10 months after a widespread crash last April.Carmi Levy, senior vice-president of strategic consulting at AR Communications, said reliability is a serious concern for companies like RIM because if problems become routine, they can drive customers away."It's a big issue and it's a growing issue," Levy said, adding that huge outages could prove to be "a major Achilles' heel" for RIM.RIM's US shares fell as much as 1.3 per cent on the news, after closing up 5.3 per cent in regular Nasdaq trade.On the Toronto Stock Exchange, the shares finished the day C$4.73 higher at C$94.62.RIM notified its clients of the outage in an e-mail, but officials at the Waterloo, Ontario-based company were not immediately available for comment."This is an emergency notification regarding the current BlackBerry Infrastructure outage," RIM support account manager Bryan Simpson said in an e-mail sent to large clients.The notice gave no details on the cause, when service might be restored or how many people could be affected.The last big outage in April 2007 provoked an angry backlash from more compulsive users, who have dubbed the device "CrackBerry" due to its drug-like addictiveness.

Archaeologists unearth

2008-02-10T05:21:00.000-08:00

Situated on the outskirts of Bhubaneswar, Sisupalgarh was once a thriving metropolis, with a population of over 25,000. That makes it even larger than the biggest city of classical Greece, Athens.University of California Head archeologist Dr Monica L Smith says, “These cities from a very early time about the third or fourth century BC were very densely populated and urban in every sense of the word.”Even though Sisupalgarh was discovered in 1948, it wasn’t until three years ago that excavations started here.A team of archeologists from Deccan College in Pune, University of California and Archeological Survey of India (ASI) are manning the digs.Deccan College Head Archeologist Dr R K Mohanty says, “What we have excavated is a very small area of the site. Each area has given a different perspective and architecture.”A large variety of pottery discovered, show the high quality of life in the city. Excavations reveal the city was well planned with eight gateways.There was a large monument for public gatherings. The whole city was surrounded by large defensive walls.Archeologists believe that it is because of the excellent architectural skills; the pillars could stand for so many years.But so far only a small portion of the huge site has been excavated.

Simran was the first choice for Jothica's role in the Rajinikanth starrer, Chandramukhi and her fans had even built a temple for her. However, after marriage and motherhood, Simran is no longer the sought-after star like she was. While her male co-stars who are pushing 40 still rule the silver screen, Simran's comeback vehicle is the next Rajinikanth film called Kushelan in which she plays the second female lead."It's not the people who are thinking this way. It is the people who are making films who think this way. If they stop thinking like that, we can change the trend down south also,However, this isn't a new phenomenon for Tamil heroines. While former popular actresses like Rambha and Nagma have now settled for Bhojpuri films, other heroines like Devayani, Meena and Khushboo and Simran are now gracing the small screen.

Tait, who was named the International Cricket Council's emerging player of 2007, said it had been a difficult decision to take a break from the game."This is not an overnight decision but something that I've been struggling with for sometime," he said in a statement."A break from professional cricket will hopefully give me a clear mind and a chance for my body to rest and recover."My love and enjoyment of the game is struggling due to these issues and if I continue to go on, it will be unfair on my team mates and support staff of both the Australian and South Australian cricket teams -- and most importantly my family and close friends.
Cricket Australia said Tait was suffering from "physical and emotional exhaustion and will be rested from cricket while he undergoes a programme designed to facilitate his return to cricket."

Kumble did the right job

2008-01-28T21:31:00.000-08:00

Bhajji didn't play in Perth as a matter of selection policy. And for those of who watched the four days of what was another enthralling Test, this flag carrying act was an intellectual statement overriding moments of charged adrenalin the victory created.It was almost as though reading through a compelling script for the latest Daniel Day-Lewis film. There was the memory of unknown lanky New Delhi teenager Ishant Sharma, who two years ago wasn't even considered good enough to earn selection to the Indian Youth World Cup side, working over Ricky Ponting in such a way that it revived memories of the 2005 Ashes Test series.
Yet the irony of the victory and the Anil Kumble leadership story has been well camouflaged by those selectors who years ago opposed John Wright when he offered his views on Indian captaincy. It was at a meeting handled by selection convenor Kiran More who slapped down Wright's pragmatic approach.Kiwis are not into the sort of sycophant politics that run Asian sport. Good Kiwis are inclined to be upfront and give forthright opinions that often tread on the toes of the selection/administrative mafia that wheel and deal their way through one muddled hidebound miscalculation after anotherA practical man, Wright in good forthright vernacular, when asked, gave an opinion that Kumble was the ideal candidate at captain. It horrified More and his selection troupe. Their view was that India couldn't be captained by a bowler who wouldn't have the support of the senior players.Wright realised, he later admitted, how much the selectors had seriously lost touch with the team and the modern game. They weren't prepared to listen to reason, or think beyond their zonal agendas. It was a crazy set up. No wonder he became annoyed at their obtuse thinking.

India is home to a quarter of world's hungry

2008-01-25T20:07:00.001-08:00

people who grow the food we eat are fighting hunger. If the faces of the poor and the figures on the official documents are anything to go by, India is losing its most important battle, the battle against hunger.The UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation's report reveals that India has added more newly hungry millions in the years that followed economic reforms as compared to the rest of the world put together.Out of the 18 million of newly hungry people in the world, approximately 13 million came from India. The government's own records show that the rural family is consuming 100 kgs food grains less in a year than it did a decade ago. Food grains absorption in rural India has fallen to a historic low, lower than before the Second World War as reported in NSS surveys of the UNWFP.

The terror is back

2008-01-22T01:27:00.000-08:00

The selectors have opted for a youthful squad for the series with Australia and Sri Lanka, handing opportunities to 22-year-old Raina, batsman Rohit Sharma, all-rounder Praveen Kumar and leg-spinner Piyush Chawla, whilst dropping the experienced Sourav Ganguly, Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman.And in-form Raina, who played his last one-day international a year ago, is now focusing on the opportunity to secure a permanent place in the side. "I have been batting well this season and was confident of regaining a place in Team India after all the runs I have made in domestic cricket,Now I have a new challenge in front of me. I need to prove myself all over again and cement my place in the ODI team. I am confident I will do well on the bouncy pitches there." Raina has yet to live up to his potential in the limited-overs format, amassing just 612 runs from 36 ODIs at an average of 26, though this series will offer him his first chance in Australian conditions.

Australia should be scared of me Sreesanth

2008-01-22T01:19:00.000-08:00

Sreesanth is aware that spotlight would be on him Down Under because of his frequent run-ins with Ricky Ponting and his team mates, especially Andrew Symonds.that, however, does not bother the pacer.I'm not scared of anyone. On the contrary, I think Australia should be scared of me because I'm back. And I'm back after a rest too," he told reporters here today.Having featured in numerous eyeball-to-eyeball confrontation with Symonds during Australia's ODI series last year, Sreesanth knows he would be under scrutiny but does not lose his sleep over the prospect."Well, I always loved spotlight," he admitted.Perhaps aware that India's ongoing Australia tour has already seen enough bad blood, Sreesanth, however, vowed that he would never overstep the line.

Vengsarkar reply

2008-01-21T01:25:00.000-08:00

Chairman of the Selection Committee Dilip Vengsarkar has, however, justified the selections for the triangular series saying there is a need for a new look team."Why should we select players who have got just one or two years left to play. We want to build a India cricket team for the future," Vengasarkar said in Mumbai on Tuesday.There are speculations that ODI skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni wanted younger players in the team and so Ganguly and Dravid were not picked.The Cricket Association of Bengal Joint Secretary Samar Pal, too, blamed Dhoni for Ganguly's ouster."What has been done is totally wrong, grave injustice is being done to him. It seems Dhoni did not want him in the side. Dhoni is more comfortable with juniors so he is in favour of axing seniors. But we will not sit idle. We will lodge a strong protest," Pal said.

saurav eliminated

2008-01-20T01:12:00.000-08:00

when odi squad was announced everyone was shocked.The world knows his form.As India's ODI captain, MS Dhoni will be under scrutiny over the next month. But he already seems to be facing the heat over the One-Day squad named for the tri-series."I think it has affected journalists more that it has us, because we are back in the practice session, we played in the morning. So it has not affected us in any way," Dhoni retorted.Sourav Ganguly cut a lonesome figure in practice and is said to be extremely disappointed at being left out. But the BCCI are standing by their selection."At the moment, we have to think about the future, so that when we think two years hence, we know how we are going to build the team," reasons Chairman of selectors Dilip Vengsarkar.The Indian team knows that the next week could raise its stature in the world game beyond the wildest expectations if another memorable victory is scripted. But within the unit, the focus remains on their own expectations.

Australia will be fierce now, warns Jaques

2008-01-18T01:20:00.000-08:00

We would be fiercely competitive and as aggressive as possible. We will approach it as we always approach a game, that is to play it hard. We will be trying to be as aggressive as possible without crossing the line," he said.Jacques, done in by left-arm swing bowler Irfan Pathan in both the innings at Perth, said he wanted to "get him" in the next match."He bowled really tight lines (in Perth). He bowled a couple of good balls. That happens in cricket, hopefully, I can get him next time," Jacques said.Jacques said Australia looked for a change in fortune with Matthew Hayden returning to the fold."Matt coming back into the side will make a difference to our team and give us a whole lot of confidence. He's a fine player with a fine record. He's fantastic, has a wealth of knowledge. My mindset did not change too much not having Matt there but having him there will give the side what we need at the top of the order

shoaib in trouble

Shoaib akthar was not included in a provisional 21-man squad for Pakistan's forthcoming one-day series against Zimbabwe due to concerns over his fitness.And those health issues, coupled with Shoaib's chequered disciplinary record, are starting to cause concern within Pakistani cricket.PCB chairman Nasim Ashraf told the Daily Times: "Shoaib is facing fitness as well as disciplinary problems that were even pointed out during the India tour last year.He has repeatedly violated discipline on a number of occasions. His case is referred to the PCB disciplinary committee and his future will be decided in the PCB governing body meeting to be held on January 25.

Federer's fitness not a concern for Djokovic

2008-01-14T09:19:00.000-08:00

Australia open started in a sparkling manner And all the players are giving their best.Djokovic moved into the sport's elite last year with five ATP titles and a maiden appearance in a grand slam final moving him from 16th in the world up to third. But he knows he has another mountain to climb if he is to get past Rafael Nadal and then unseat Federer, who he describes as one of the greats of the game. Instead of focusing on beating Federer, who has been battling a stomach bug, the 20-year-old is looking to improvements in his own game as a means of reaching the top. "We don't need to talk about him too much," said Djokovic."He proved that he's the best player in the world in the past three, four years, and he really deserves that spot and that honour. Of course, he's one of the best ever that played this game. "I'm one of the players who is really trying to challenge him in that matter. You know, as a 20-year-old, I reached the third place of the world, but I'm really not trying to rush anywhere.

Sehwag likely to play

2008-01-14T04:26:00.000-08:00

Kirsten who is the present coach of Indian team is in Perth as a consultant for Team India, witnessed the furore from afar, but remains convinced that the on-going ‘Race Row’ is far from ideal for the game’s image. "The spirit was breached and I'm not sitting on the fence. The game doesn't need two nations saying I was right," Kirsten told reporters in Western Australia. "One needs to be careful. I got to look at this thing objectively. I got to be very careful in what I say. To me it's sad what's going on. "I'm looking at it objectively because I wasn't in the heat of the battle. May be I'll have a different perspective if I was in the heat of battle saying India were unfairly treated and there were comments made, but the way it's going is not good for the game at the moment,".

Relations between the two sides have become strained over a number of issues after an ill-tempered second Test in Sydney, with allegations of racism levelled at spinner Harbhajan Singh chief among them. The 29-year-old batsman, who was not selected for the first two Tests, gave the India selectors a timely reminder of his credentials with 73-ball century in a warm-up game against an ACT Invitational XI in Canberra on Saturday. And whether he earns a recall or not, Sehwag hopes the third Test passes off without incident.

all smiles for Jodhaa Akbar cover

2008-01-13T08:35:00.000-08:00

Aishwarya Rai and Hritik Roshan unveiled the twin cover edition of a popular film magazine Jodhaa Akbar in Mumbai and instead of doing the usual goody two shoes act on stage, Hrithik decided to indulge in some leg pulling.He might be a shy guy, but once the clothes are off and you see the reaction, the guy can give Brad Pitt a complex.The cover in question puts to rest rumors about a tiff between the actors on the sets of the film.. We are grown ups and these things are not conducive to working,” said Hrithik.And while the stars cleared the air, director Ashutosh Gowarikar looked on, clearly not complaining about the publicity his film is getting.

PM VISIT CHINA

2008-01-13T03:55:00.000-08:00

Prime minister went to china. To participate in this event, a 25-member Indian business delegation, comprising heavyweights from the manufacturing and the IT sectors, had arrived in the Chinese Capital ahead of Singh. Indian industry, for its part, has a sense of unease with the engagement so far on the trade front, which has seen bilateral volumes jump to $38.6 billion in 2007 but with a massive deficit of $10 billion against India. Four years ago, the balance of trade was in favour of India, as it registered a surplus of $1.4 billion. The spurt in trade volumes thereafter has rapidly transformed that to a huge and growing deficit, which will not go away in the near future. Reflecting this unease was commerce minister Kamal Nath, who told his Chinese counterpart Chen Deming when they met on January 12 that China and India had substantial trade but this was sustainable only if there was no large trade deficit.

Musharraf to quit

2008-01-12T19:31:00.000-08:00

Two-thirds majority in Parliament is required for any impeachment proceeding. And the possibility of slain former prime minister Benazir Bhutto's PPP and Nawaz Sharif's PML-N getting it after next month's elections is not ruled outThe President said Benazir, with whom he was reported to be having power-sharing talks, was "brave" but got "carried away" in the euphoria of the public support in her last rally, where she was killed.
When asked if he thought she was foolhardy, Musharraf replied: "No. In the euphoria of public support at her fatal rally, when thousands of people are there to cheer you, you do get carried away. When people start waving, you do things that you might not otherwise do. But certainly I would say that getting out of the vehicle was an unwise thing to do.
