ESPNcricinfo staff22-Jan-2011

Pakistan’s oldest Test cricketer Aslam Khokhar died in Lahore on Saturday after a prolonged illness. He was 91. Khokhar played one Test for Pakistan, against England in 1954 during his team’s first tour of the country, and 45 first-class games, averaging 27.80 with two centuries. He was also a good enough legspinner to be considered an all-rounder in his time.Though he played only one official Test, Aslam also took part in the first ‘unofficial’ Test Pakistan played before they gained Test status in 1952-53, against the touring West Indies in Lahore’s Bagh-e-Jinnah in 1947-48.And he is noted for making what is now acknowledged as the first first-class hundred in Pakistan, soon after partition from India in the country’s maiden first-class match between Sind and West Punjab in Lahore. In the city’s early club scene, he played for Universal CC.He was 34 when he toured England in 1954 and the ‘Encyclopedia of Pakistan Cricket’ reports that a toe injury curtailed his participation for much of the tour.He then took up umpiring, on the insistence of Pakistan’s first – unofficial Test – captain Mian Mohammad Saeed and officiated in three Tests – all involving Pakistan and England – in 1973 and 1977. He took over as senior coach at Lahore’s Aitchson College and worked at a national training camp in the mid-80s.”It is sad that we lost Khokhar,” former Pakistan batsman and team-mate Hanif Mohammad was quoted as saying by . “He was a jolly man and friendly with everyone.”

كشف ناصر الخليفي رئيس باريس سان جيرمان، عن رأيه في تنظيم كأس العالم قطر 2022، والانتقادات التي وجهت لبلاده قبل انطلاق البطولة.

وقال الخليفي في تصريحاته لـ “RMC”: “أردنا تنظيم أفضل كأس عالم في التاريخ، أنا قطري وفخور جدًا عندما أرى جودة الملاعب والمباريات، إنه شيء رائع بالنسبة لنا”.

وتابع “نحن أيضًا نشعر بالحزن لأنه لم يتبق سوى مباراتين في البطولة، لكنها كانت تجربة رائعة، بالنسبة لي، لطالما قلت إن أفضل حدث رياضي كان بطولة أوروبا 2004 في البرتغال”.

وواصل: “لقد كانت الأفضل بالنسبة لي، الأفضل في كرة القدم، الخبرة، المشجعين، لكن الآن لم يعد عام 2004، إنه 2022، كانت كأس العالم هذه تجربة رائعة ولا أعرف ما الذي كان بإمكاني فعله أكثر من ذلك”.

وأشار الخليفي: “لقد شاهدت سبع مباريات في أقل من 48 ساعة، ولم أتمكن من القيام بذلك من قبل، إنها تجربة رائعة”.

وعن الذي يفتخر به أكثر من اي شيء آخر في مونديال قطر، أجاب: “طرحت وسائل الإعلام الكثير من الأسئلة حول كأس العالم 2022، وأجبت دائمًا: أنا لست جزءًا من اللجنة المنظمة، ولا علاقة لي بها”.

وأفاد: “لكن أريد أن أقول شيئًا واحدًا: كل القطريين، وحتى غير القطريين الذين يعيشون في قطر، كنا جميعًا منظمي كأس العالم هذه، وذلك شيء فريد”.

وعلّق الخليفي: “قبل المونديال، كانت جميع وسائل الإعلام تنتقد قطر، وترى أنها سوف بطولة سيئة … وبعد أن أتى الناس والآن ما أسمعه من جميع وسائل الإعلام هو أمر إيجابي للغاية، نرى أن القطريين ليسوا سيئين”.

وأكمل: “قدمنا ​​قلوبنا، ووطننا للجميع، إنها ثقافتنا، قالت لي إحدى وسائل الإعلام “هل أنت على هذا الحال طوال الوقت أم من أجل كأس العالم فقط؟ لكن لا، قبل كأس العالم وبعدها سنبقى على حالنا، وكان ذلك مميزًا جدًا بالنسبة لي”.

واستطرد الخليفي: “نحن 350 ألف قطري فقط، ولسنا كثيرين ولكننا فخورين ببلدنا وما قمنا به، أعتقد أنها كانت كأس عالم مثالية، لا تزال هناك مباراتين متبقيتين وآمل أن يسير كل شيء على ما يرام، لكنها كانت كأس عالم على مستوى عالٍ للغاية”.

وأكد: “انظروا، عندما يلعب المغرب، الملعب ممتلئ، خلال ربع النهائي، أكثر من 82٪ من سكان المغرب حضروا هذه المباراة، إنه شيء لا يصدق، يستحق الشرق الأوسط استضافة كأس العالم”.

وأصر الخليفي: “حتى المملكة العربية السعودية وتونس … كتبت كأس العالم هذه شيئًا فريدًا، كأس العالم هذه جمعت الناس معًا، حتى من وجهة نظر سياسية، التقريب بين الناس هو هدف كرة القدم والسياسة لا يمكنها أن تفعل ذلك”.

وعن إمكانية تنظيم قطر لمسابقة عالمية أخرى، رد الخليفي: “لست في وضع يسمح لي بقول نعم أو لا، لكن في عام 2024 ستكون هناك كأس آسيا هنا، ستكون هناك أيضا كأس العرب .. هناك أشياء كثيرة في قطر”.

وأوضح: “بالنسبة لي، إنها مدينة الرياضة في الشرق الأوسط، كنا نتحدث عن ملعب لوسيل، بالنسبة لي إنه رائع حقًا، إنه أجمل ملعب في العالم، سعة 84000 شخص بالإضافة إلى المقصورة، كقطريين، نحن فخورون بجميع الملاعب”.

وبشأن إمكانية تنظيم قطر لدورة الألعاب الأولمبية، أجاب: “نحن القطريون، لدينا أحلام لا حدود لها، إنها ثقافة أخرى، وطموح آخر، لكن لا يمكنني الحديث عن ذلك، إنه ليس موقفي”.

وسُئل الخليفي عن كيليان مبابي الذي يرتبط بعقد مع باريس سان جيرمان، وأجاب: “بالضبط، لديه عقد، كيليان هو حقًا أحد أفضل اللاعبين اليوم، إنه لاعب رائع وكانسان، إنه شخص رائع أيضًا”.

وبشأن إبرام تعاقدات جديدة في يناير لنادي باريس سان جيرمان: قال “هذا يعتمد على الإصابات اليوم، فترة الانتقالات هذه صعبة علينا، لا يمكنك أن تقول “نريد التوقيع”، بالنسبة لنا، لا نستهدف أي لاعب في الوقت الحالي ولكن إذا كانت لدينا فرصة، فلما لا”.

Depois de deixar escapar o título do Campeonato Catarinense, a Chapecoense concentrou os seus esforços no Campeonato Brasileiro. No entanto, a estreia no Brasileirão não foi das melhores: perdeu de 5 a 1, para o Atlético-PR, na Arena da Baixada.

Apesar da má fase, o diretor executivo do clube, Rui Costa, foi negou que haja uma crise no Verdão do Oeste. O dirigente fez questão de destacar a confiança no time para o restante da temporada.

– Não sei o contexto que foi falado (de crise). Eu posso garantir que não há crise. Não há queda de confiança. Não poderia desconsiderar que o nosso início de campeonato foi frustrante. Não há vestiário quebrado, ao contrário, é muito unido. Há muita confiança na comissão técnica. Esse Gilson Kleina é o mesmo que nos resgatou no ano passado em uma situação muito difícil e teve uma adversidade que muitos terão neste Brasileiro. Tem que ter convicção no trabalho. Se relativizar tudo a cada derrota…quantas derrotas tivemos ano passado? 14. Essa foi a primeira e teremos outras no Campeonato Brasileiro. Bom se fossem 37 vitórias a partir de agora – disse Rui Costa.

Com o intuito de pontuar no Brasileirão, a Chapecoense vaiencarar o Vasco, no próximo domingo, na Arena Condá. A partida está marcada para 16h.

The ICC has given a cautious nod to Eden Gardens’ bid to host the remaining three World Cup matches, saying that it is ‘encouraged’ by the progress made towards completing the necessary construction work

ESPNcricinfo staff08-Feb-2011

The ICC has given a cautious nod to Eden Gardens’ bid to host the remaining three World Cup matches scheduled there, apart from the India-England game, saying that it is “encouraged” by the progress made towards completing the necessary construction work.”We are pleased with the progress made since January 25, and if that pace of work is maintained, we believe that the stadium will be ready for the games scheduled in March,” Haroon Lorgat, the ICC chief executive said.Eden Gardens is slated to host group-stage matches between South Africa and Ireland on March 15, Ireland and Netherlands on March 18, and Kenya and Zimbabwe on March 20.The ICC had ruled out holding the February 27 match between Indian and England at Eden Gardens after an inspection on January 27 found several major works incomplete. That match was moved to Bangalore, and it was decided that a later inspection would be held to assess whether Eden Gardens could host the other three matches scheduled to be played there.While the ICC’s new-found confidence means the extensive renovation undertaken on Eden Gardens by the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) might not be a complete loss as far as the tournament is concerned, it may be little consolation for the authorities, who were banking on the India match to draw a sell-out crowd.

أشاد لاعب وسط الفريق الأول لكرة القدم بنادي ريال مدريد، داني سيبايوس، بزميله السابق بنادي آرسنال، محمد النني، بعد مشاركته الصغيرة في مباراة وست هام يونايتد في الدوري الإنجليزي.

وشارك النني في الثواني الأخيرة من مباراة آرسنال ووست هام، حيث قام أرتيتا بالدفع به قبل انطلاق صافرة الحكم ولم يلمس الفرعون المصري الكرة إطلاقًا ولم يعترض أبدًا.

Just as a good marksman doesn’t need a lot of shots to hit the target, South Africa don’t need to over-train to be effective

Firdose Moonda in Kolkata14-Mar-2011Just as a good marksman doesn’t need a lot of shots to hit the target, South Africa don’t need to over-train to be effective. After a mentally and physically draining match against India on Saturday and travelling from Nagpur to Kolkata via Mumbai on Sunday, the squad was allowed a day’s rest before their match against Ireland on Tuesday.”Just because we are not training, doesn’t mean we are not prepared,” Corrie van Zyl, South Africa coach said. “This is part of our preparation.” It may seem strange that not actively doing something will have value when getting ready for an activity, like sport, that will require a lot of doing. “We don’t need to train just for the sake of it,” van Zyl said, indicating that the mental aspect was taking precedence this time around.The win over India was a mental leap for South Africa, because they were able to come on top of a tense and pressured situation without much panic. The effect it had was evident when Robin Peterson hit the winning runs and charged around the field, possessed. Graeme Smith described it as “raw emotion” and that’s exactly what it was. Joy exposed, ecstasy laid bare.To come down from that high, and they’ve had to come down because that wasn’t the final, might have felt like a crash, and that’s why picking themselves up again is going to be tricky. “There is a danger of that [not being able to get up quickly enough],” van Zyl said. “But it’s how you approach the danger that’s important. We’ve got guys like Henning Gericke to help with that.” Gericke is the team psychologist and will play an instrumental role in readying their minds for the next game.It’s not often that Corrie van Zyl cracks jokes at a press conference•AFP

Although they have not trained and will only see Eden Gardens on match day, van Zyl said they’ve made sure the venue is not foreign to them. “We’ve looked at all the grounds and all the stats and we know exactly what to expect from a day-night game here.” South Africa have played at the ground just a year ago, a Test match against India which they lost.This time the opposition is ranked much lower but South Africa are promising the same intensity they showed against Netherlands. Injury concerns will definitely keep Imran Tahir out of the match, as he still recovers from a fractured thumb. AB de Villiers strained a muscle in his left thigh during the match against India and although scans revealed that there was no tear, he is a doubtful starter.That could open the door for the untested Colin Ingram to have a go, if South Africa still want to go in with seven batsman, which they may choose to do on a pitch with specks of green. The same surface could merit including an extra bowler. Having bowled out all four sides they have faced so far, South Africa are unlikely to change the bowling combination. “The bowlers have been disciplined and stuck to game plans, which is why they’ve been successful,” van Zyl said.They’ve also shown a remarkable calm under pressure, like when India were tearing into them on Saturday. It’s that composed approach that they may have spent the day working on. van Zyl showed definite signs of having relaxed at his press conference when the microphone didn’t work, simply because he hadn’t pressed the button to switch it on. He blushed a little when he was shown the right switch but immediately turned the situation around into a laugh. “We don’t have buttons in Bloemfontein,” he said and the whole room brightened. It was the first time many had seen van Zyl crack a joke in a press conference and the easy manner with which he did may well be a reflection on the mood in the camp as a whole.

O Santos tem plano ousado para o segundo semestre: repetir o começo de 2018 e apresentar à torcida e comissão técnica três reforços para o time titular. No planejamento do clube, dois meias e um atacante chegariam durante o período de pausa para a disputa da Copa do Mundo, entre junho e julho, momento também no qual a janela de transferências do exterior abre. Prestigiado pela direção e com o cargo intacto após a goleada sofrida para o Grêmio, em Porto Alegre, o técnico Jair Ventura, então, enfim terá seu meia-armador para compor o plantel.

À reportagem, pessoas ligadas à diretoria garantiram que três nomes já estão sendo negociados há meses. Para suprir “posições mais carentes, que estão no meio” e “ao menos um atacante”. O Santos, de fato, sofre com a falta de articuladores em seu meio-campo.A demora na contratação de um homem para atuar no setor tem gerado críticas à gestão do presidente José Carlos Peres, que chegou a prometer a fechar negócio em fevereiro.

– Não vamos contratar por contratar, não há porque gastar o dinheiro que o clube já não tem em quem não fará a diferença. Desde o começo do ano, nós trouxemos três jogadores que hoje são titulares. É esse tipo de reforço que vamos buscar no mercado – disse o presidente Peres.

Publicamente, o Santos diz ainda sonhar com a chegada do meia Lucas Zelarayán, do Tigres, do México, mas nos bastidores tem feito pouco para concretizar a negociação. Já Paulo Henrique Ganso, atualmente no Sevilla, da Espanha, chegou a ser cogitado, mas uma negociação nem sequer foi aberta e Peres não tem a intenção de viajar à Espanha.
