Warwickshire stayed on top of their Clydesdale Bank 40 group after trumping an 82-ball century by Scotland’s overseas player, George Bailey, at Edgbaston

30-Aug-2010
ScorecardWarwickshire stayed on top of their Clydesdale Bank 40 group after trumping an 82-ball century by Scotland’s overseas player, George Bailey, at Edgbaston. Bailey and Richie Berrington shared in a record-breaking partnership as the Scots made 267 for 4 but an explosive 81 from 69 balls by Neil Carter put the Bears on the way to a four-wicket win with three overs to spare.The county side had to overcome a teasing spell of three for 39 by left-arm spinner Ross Lyons before setting up a winner-takes-all clash with Nottinghamshire for a semi-final place on Saturday. Lyons broke a stand of 101 by Carter and Keith Barker (40), but despite slipping back to 156 for five, Warwickshire still had the resources to avoid an upset.Darren Maddy (74) and Rikki Clarke (49 not out) – both England players in the past – imposed their strength and experience by putting on 111 in 13 overs. Maddy was just annoyed with himself at getting out after bringing the scores level with his ninth boundary.It was tough on Scotland to be in the losing corner. Bailey and Berrington, already the only batsmen in this team to have made fifties in this season’s competition, passed numerous milestones in hammering 109 runs from the last eight overs.Their partnership of 198 in 25.2 overs is Scotland’s highest in competitive meetings with English counties, surpassing 167 by Rahul Dravid and the South African, Jon Kent, against Sussex at Hove in 2003.Making the most of a run-out chance on 73, Barker cracked nine fours and five sixes as he put the seal on a hectic year by making 123 from 90 balls, a new career-best score in List A cricket.The Tasmania captain flew home in the middle of the season to score a century when leading Australia A in a mini-series against Sri Lanka. For Berrington this has been a breakthrough season. The 23-year-old Greenock batsman has attracted interest from a number of counties since starting the with successive half-centuries against Leicestershire, Kent and Nottinghamshire.In the middle of the summer he reached his first international hundred against India A in Glasgow and now he has made his highest score against a county side. When he was out for 82, hoisting the last ball of the innings to Clarke at long-off, he had hit seven fours and two sixes from 72 deliveries.The wicket was scant consolation for Warwickshire as a team, but for Barker, the bowler, it was a personal landmark as he finished with four for 33, his best figures in List A competitions.In his first spell, the left-arm seamer ended a promising start by Fraser Watts (26) and Ollie Hairs, a 19-year-old left hander who confidently made 24 in his first CB 40 appearance.

Autor do gol do empate do Botafogo em 2 a 2 com a Portuguesa, o meia-atacante Marcos Vinicius ouviu vaias da torcida durante a após os 90 minutos, mas elas não foram direcionadas ao atleta de 23 anos e sim para todo o time.

E ele associa as vaias não só ao tropeço na estreia do Carioca, mas principalmente à herança de 2017, quando o Glorioso deixou escapar a vaga na Libertadores e não venceu em casa nos últimos quatro jogos – agora são cinco. No primeiro jogo deste ano, o Botafogo quase voltou a perder para a Lusa após 51 anos.

– As vaias da torcida durante o jogo aconteceram mais por causa do nosso desempenho no final do ano passado – opinou Marcos Vinicius, na saída do campo. Ele chegouao Glorioso em meados de 2017. Atuou em 26 vezes e marcou seis gols.

O Botafogo volta a campo já no próximo sábado, quando encara o Fluminense, às 17h, no Maracanã, em jogo da segunda rodada da Taça Guanabara. Com cinco partidas nesta fase da competição, uma derrota no clássico pode complicar as chances do Alvinegro avançar às semifinais.

Lalit Modi will be submitting his reply to the BCCI’s show-cause notice,issued on April 26, tomorrow in Mumbai. On Monday, Modi had asked fora five-day extension to the original 15-day deadline, as he wantedadditional documents from the board to prepare his defence. The boardobliged on both counts and Modi is likely to appear in person onSaturday afternoon at the BCCI headquarters.”We will be submitting the reply to the BCCI in the second halftomorrow,” Mehmood Abdi, one of the legal counsels for Modi, toldCricinfo. As for whether Modi would be present, Abdi said it was up in theair.When asked if there is any particular time frame for the board before it makes a final decision, Abdi said he was optimistic about a favourable decision in his client’s favour. “Our reply has been clear. The board’s president [Shashank Manohar] isan eminent lawyer, so it should not take him a long time, we hope, to make a decision.”And was he confident the board would clear Modi of allallegations? Abdi, most certainly, was. “We hope our replysatisfies the board and that it would revoke the show-cause and alsore-instate Mr Lalit Modi to all positions in the BCCI from which hewas suspended.”Modi was suspended by the BCCI on April 26, soon after the conclusion ofthe IPL, which sent him a show-cause notice asking him to reply to aslew of charges relating to the conduct of the high-profile Twenty20league. Modi was alleged to have indulged in financial deals withoutthe knowledge of the IPL governing council, bid-rigging and to be displaying abehavioural pattern which was not acceptable.In the last week Modi has been constantly communicating with the board viaemails asking for various documents related specifically to the fivecharges slapped against him. N Srinivasan, the board secretary,replied elaborately to Modi on Tuesday, citing the various reasons andevidence stacked against him [Modi], also speaking of “reliable sources”who had verbally told the board president Shashank Manohar about hismisdeeds which they felt had brought disrepute only to the board butalso the game of cricket.Modi attacked the board for utilising “unknown” sources, calling them”fictitious”, particularly when the board refused to reveal their names.

Scorecard
Bangladesh A succumbed to their second consecutive defeat in the tri-series, falling short by 29 runs against West Indies A in Mirpur. West Indies were boosted by half-centuries from Darren Bravo and Brendan Nash which helped take their team to a competitive 259 for 7. The pair added 84 for the third wicket, and some attacking batting at the death from Imran Khan took West Indies past 250.Bangladesh were well placed for much of their innings, opener Nazimuddin leading the way with an 86-ball 89, comprising 13 fours. He was supported by captain Shamsur Rahman, with whom he added 84, while Raqibul Hasan and Marshall Ayub scored 46 and 43 respectively to keep the chase on track. At 176 for 3 in the 35th over, Bangladesh had the upper hand but two quick wickets in successive overs for one run pegged them back.Ayub fought hard, batting with the lower order, but when he fell with the score on 230 to make it nine down, West Indies had the game covered. Seamer Nelon Pascal starred for them, taking four wickets to trigger Bangladesh’s slide after they had threatened to scale down the target.

The former South Africa seamer, Andre Nel, has been suspended for two matches under the ECB’s discipline code, following an incident during Surrey’s CB40 match against Lancashire on April 25

Cricinfo staff28-Apr-2010The former South Africa seamer, Andre Nel, has been suspended for two matches under the ECB’s discipline code, following an incident during Surrey’s CB40 match against Lancashire on April 25.Nel, who has a fiery reputation, was reported by the umpires, Neil Bainton and Rob Bailey, for a Level Two breach of the code (showing serious dissent at an umpire’s decision by word or action), for which he has received three penalty points.Nel has previously received six penalty points and as a result of accumulating nine penalty points within a two-year period, he has received an automatic suspension and may not participate in any cricket under the jurisdiction of the ECB until May 4, 2010.In addition, the penalty points received in relation to the most recent incident will remain on his record for a period of two years.

LeedsLive reporter Beren Cross has delivered a hugely exciting update on the future of Raphinha at Leeds United…

What’s the word?

During a recent online Q&A with supporters, the ever-reliable journalist was asked about the Brazilian’s situation amid reported interest from some of Europe’s elite, including Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich and top-flight rivals Liverpool.

“Contract talks between Leeds and Deco, Raphinha’s agent, are ongoing. There is confidence a deal can be struck and the Brazilian will move onto terms which accurately reflect his status at the club and in the league,” he replied.

“Raphinha is not making life difficult for anyone in any way around this deal. Naturally, I cannot predict the future or what Raphinha’s camp may choose to do, but the noises are positive and it would suit all parties to sign a new deal and secure his value.

“Evidently, there is going to be plenty of interest in him this summer, whether he signs a new contract or not. It will be two full seasons under his belt and clubs will feel they can tempt him away after proving himself at this level in a new country.

“Leeds will of course only sell at the price they are happy with. Whether that’s in the summer, next January or summer 2023 remains to be seen.

“Do not overlook what the World Cup may do to his value if he’s still a Leeds player by then.”

Huge boost

This is hugely exciting news for both the Elland Road faithful and manager Marcelo Bielsa, even more so if they can keep hold of him past the 2022 World Cup, which will be held in Qatar next winter.

There is no denying that the 25-year-old is set for a huge future at a big club sooner or later. He has been in electric form this season and has often carried Leeds’ blushes.

Indeed, he is their top goalscorer this season with eight goals and he also leads the way for creativity, managing one assist and an average of 1.8 key passes per game, via WhoScored.

The Yorkshire giants may be eight points clear of the relegation zone, a little over halfway into the season, but they are by no means safe from a dogfight, especially as the two teams directly below them have either one or two games in hand.

Keeping hold of Bielsa’s star man will surely delight everyone concerned with the club and it is even more encouraging to learn that the Whites’ hierarchy are close to tying him down to a new contract.

That will either make it harder for the five-time Brazil international to move on, unless there is a release clause, or it will bolster United’s power in any future negotiations and thus help their chances of making a substantial return on their £17m investment in 2020.

Already valued at £36m by Transfermarkt, Raphinha is an integral part of Leeds’ plans in 2022 and it seems that, following Cross’ claim, the club are much closer to sealing his signature once again.

Prosper Utseya and Graeme Cremer were pleased with their team’s shock defeat of the West Indies in the Twenty20 fixture in Trinidad

Cricinfo staff01-Mar-2010Prosper Utseya, the Zimbabwe captain, was delighted with his team’s shock defeat of West Indies in the Twenty20 fixture in Trinidad, and lauded his team’s self-belief for the victory.”It wasn’t a good way to start, but we managed to put up a good total which was great,” Utseya told AFP. His side was staring down the barrel at 0 for 3 after 2.4 overs before recovering to post a three-figure score.”It wasn’t a good pitch on which to play, since we were looking for something around 140. We thought that would have been a good total. Obviously, we fell way short of this, but we felt if we could get 100 runs on the board that we had enough belief in ourselves to be able to defend such a small total.”Utseya revealed that his team had prepared for the spin-friendly conditions at the Queens’ Park Oval. “We always thought the pitch was going to be spinner-friendly, so we decided to pack our side with spinners, and I thought they bowled brilliantly which was the key for us in our victory.”The guys have been playing some good cricket back home in our domestic competition. We were confident that we had prepared ourselves very well for this series in the Caribbean,” Utseya said.Utseya was however quick to caution against complacency. “But it is important for us to stay calm, and not get carried away with this victory. We still need to work on our game because there are still several areas in which we can improve to make us a better team.”Walter Chawaguta, Zimbabwe’s interim coach, explained that it had been decided at team meetings at the start of the tour that Zimbabwe’s spin attack was their strongest weapon and should provide the fulcrum of their game plan.”A lot of teams in Twenty20 cricket believe that the cleanest hitters and fastest scoring batsmen should be loaded at the top of the order, no matter what, but in our case it was a question of using our best bowlers up front, even if they are spinners,” he said.Graeme Cremer, who choked West Indies’ chase with a spell of 3 for 11 to take Man-of-the-Match award, was pleased with the conditions that aided him. “I am happy that we had a turning pitch for a change. We knew that the pitches would be low and slow, but we never thought that the pitches would offer so much turn.”When we saw the pitch [on Saturday], we felt it would turn, and we decided that we would bowl spin all the way through the match,” Cremer said.Cremer revealed that his bowling had come along since he spent time with Terry Jenner, the former Australia legspinner. “I learnt a great deal from Terry Jenner, when he came to Zimbabwe recently. I spent four days with him, and he taught me so much, and he helped me with a few deliveries which seem to be working.”

G7, 2017, 47 pontos, sete vitórias no returno e número da camisa de jogadores históricos como Garrincha, Jairzinho e Túlio Maravilha. O número parece conspirar a favor do Botafogo atual, que tem pelo menos sete boas razões para focar no restante do Campeonato Brasileiro, além, é claro, da vaga na Libertadores. O LANCE! traz pra vocês.

Comecemos pela liderança do returno: Não vale dinheiro e nem taça, mas é importante para iniciar a próxima temporada em alta e tirar uma onda com os rivais. O Botafogo já está na ponta nesse quesito. São 22 pontos nas onze rodadas, dois a mais que o Palmeiras, o vice-líder.

Se terminar a segunda metade da competição em primeiro, o Alvinegro provavelmente atinge mais dois objetivos: ser o melhor time carioca na tabela, algo que o Botafogo só conseguiu uma vez na era dos pontos corridos, em 2013, quando foi o quarto, com 61 pontos. Essa pontuação também é o recorde do Glorioso desde 2003, quando a competição começou a ser disputada neste esquema.

Para ter o recorde de pontos, o Botafogo precisa mandar bem em casa e quem sabe ser o melhor mandante da competição, o que seria bem significativo para uma equipe com baixa média de público. O Alvinegro é o terceiro no quesito, com 29 pontos em 15 rodadas. O líder neste quesito é o Santos, com 33, e o mesmo número de jogos em casa.

Mas o número sete também traz uma pequena assombração. Afinal, o Botafogo sofreu gols nos últimos sete jogos, o pior período no ano, e vê nesta reta final a chance final de se ajustar e não iniciar a Libertadores de 2018 com os mesmo sustos deste ano.

Briga por título?
Se atingir tudo isso, o Botafogo fica perto de fechar o ano no G3 e alcançar a melhor colocação na tabela. Isso, sem contar, que pode até lutar pelo título na reta final. A média de pontos do time de Jair Ventura é de dois pontos por jogo no returno. Nessa pegada, o Alvinegro encerraria o Brasileirão com 63 pontos. O Corinthians, líder geral, está com média de um ponto por jogo no returno e se manter esse ritmo fecha com 67. Mas dá para sonhar, torcedor alvinegro? Para o técnico Jair Ventura, tudo é possível.

-Não penso no título, mas se ele chegar… Ano passado não pensei em Libertadores e chegamos. Tem muita coisa para acontecer. É um Campeonato muito equilibrado, sempre decidido em detalhes, que dificilmente tem placar elástico. Por isso o campeonato mais disputado do mundo. Tudo aberto, pode acontecer tanto pra parte boa quanto ruim – opinou Jair, que pode levar o Botafogo à segunda Libertadores consecutiva, algo que seria inédito na história do clube, antes de completar:

– Nosso grande objetivo é brigar na parte de cima. Ser campeão do returno não dá vantagem de nada, o que vale é chegar na Libertadores. Muitos me questionam sobre títulos. Nosso último grande foi em 95. Lembro que em 2014 estávamos na Série B. Me perdoem, mas de 2014 para cá foi um grande trabalho – finalizou.

Neste domingo, às 17h, o Botafogo tem o primeiro dos oito desafios para iniciar a caminhada rumo à realização dos sete objetivos. Em Belo Horizonte, o time encara o Atlético-MG, no Independência.

O que está em jogo
1) Liderança do returno: O Alvinegro é o líder da segunda metade do Brasileirão, com 22 pontos e sete vitórias

2) Ser o melhor do Rio: O Botafogo só alcançou isto uma vez, em 2013. Foi o quarto, com 61 pontos. Com o baixo investimento para a temporada, alcançar o feito ficaria ainda mais saboroso

3) Recorde de pontos: 61 também é o recorde de pontos do Glorioso na era pontos corridos. Mantendo a média de pontos do returno, o time vai a 63 e supera a marca

4) Melhor mandante da competição: Algo importante para um clube, ainda mais com média de público baixa. O Glorioso está em terceiro no quesito, com 29 pontos. Santos é o primeiro, com 33. O Corinthians vem atrás, com 31

5) Ajustar a defesa: São gols sofridos, curiosamente, nos últimos sete jogos. Embalado, é a chance de consertar os defeitos

6) Melhor colocação na tabela e consequente vaga direta na fase de grupos: O quarto lugar de 2013 é a o mais longe que o time foi no Brasileiro desde 2003. Se superar a marca, de quebra, já garante vaga no G4

7) Brigar pelo título: Com o aproveitamento atual, o time de Jair Ventura ficaria pouco atrás do Corinthians…mas se melhorar ainda mais o rendimento, a temporada de sonhos estará aberta
