Javed Miandad, the former Pakistan batsman, has cancelled a planned visit to India following a controversy over his being granted a travel visa. Miandad’s son Junaid is married to the daughter of Dawood Ibrahim, India’s most highly-wanted fugitive accused of planning the serial bomb blasts in Mumbai in 1993. The Indian government’s decision to grant Miandad a visa had sparked outrage in some circles in India given his links to Dawood.Miandad was due to visit India to watch the third ODI between India and Pakistan in Delhi on Sunday. The government said Miandad’s visa application papers were valid and in order, and had decided to grant him a visa as he was not on a “negative list” of people who were to be denied entry into India.”It’s a decision that has been taken by the Home Ministry,” India’s External Affairs minister Salman Khurshid said. “And I am sure they would have taken inputs from all concerned agencies and from our mission in Pakistan… they would have followed all procedures.”However, the main opposition party BJP, and the Shiv Sena, its ally in the state of Maharashtra, criticised the government for granting him a visa.

كشف مصدر بالاتحاد المصري لكرة القدم، عن تلقي الجبلاية اخطارًا رسميًا من الكاف بتنظيم معسكر حكام النخبة في القاهرة من 14 لـ18 إبريل؛ موجهًا الدعوة لعدد من الحكام المصريين.

وقال المصدر في تصريحات خاصة لـ “بطولات” أن الكاف وجه الدعوة لفيتور بيريرا لإلقاء محاضرات نظرية في المعسكر الذي سيضم مجموعة الحكام المرشحين لإدارة مباريات الأدوار الاقصائية في بطولتي دوري أبطال أفريقيا والكونفيدرالية”.

وأوضح: “سيُشارك في المعسكر أمين عمر ومحمد معروف بالإضافة لأحمد حسام طه ومحمود أبو الرجال كمساعدين إلى جانب أحمد الغندور ومحمود عاشور وعمرو الشناوي المرشحون للتواجد كحكم فيديو في هذه المباريات”.

وأختتم: “من المقرر أن يجرى الحكام المشاركين بالمعسكر اختبارات بدنية ونظرية وجلسات عملية خلال فترة التدريب وفي حال فشل الاختبار لأي حكم سيستبعد من الأدوار النهائية بشكل رسمي ونهائي دون إجراء أي إعادة”.

علّق إريك تين هاج، المدير الفني لفريق مانشستر يونايتد، على طرد اللاعب كاسيميرو في مباراة اليوم أمام ساوثهامبتون في بطولة الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.

وتلاقى الفريقان في إطار منافسات الجولة السابعة والعشرين من البطولة، حيث تعادلا بدون أهداف.

واضطر مانشستر يونايتد إلى اللعب بـ10 لاعبين فقط منذ الدقيقة 34، نتيجة حصول اللاعب كاسيميرو على بطاقة حمراء.

جاء طرد البرازيلي بعد تدخله العنيف على كارلوس ألكاراز، حيث اكتفى الحكم بإشهار البطاقة الصفراء، ولكن تقنية الفيديو أقرت بضرورة إشهار الحمراء.

وقال تين هاج في تصريحات نشرتها شبكة “بي بي سي” العالمية: “الفريق يستحق إشادة كبرى، لقد أظهروا شخصية كبيرة خاصة بعدما اضطروا إلى اللعب لفترة طويلة بـ10 لاعبين، لقد كانوا أقوياء جسديًا وعقليًا للحصول على نقطة”.

وطالب مانشستر يونايتد بركلة جزاء في الدقيق 42 بعد لمسة يد على لاعب ساوثهامبتون، بعد تسديدة من برونو فرنانديز، ولكن الحكم لم يحتسب أي شئ.

وعن ذلك، قال تين هاج: “بالتأكيد نستحق ركلة جزاء، ليس هناك شاك، لا أعرف لماذا لم تتدخل تقنية الفيديو”.

وفيما يتعلق بطرد اللاعب كاسيميرو، قال الهولندي: “كاسيميرو لعب أكثر من 500 مباراة في أوروبا ولم يحصل على بطاقة حمراء مرة واحدة، الآن يمتلك اثنتين في الدوري الإنجليزي”.

واستكمل: “غيابه ليس القضية، سنتعامل مع ذلك الأمر، هذه المباراة تأثرت بالحكم، المشكلة تتمثل في عدم الاتساق، لا يعرف اللاعبون بعد الآن ما هي السياسة المتبعة”.

Shivnarine Chanderpaul has become the 10th batsman and the second West Indian to pass 10,000 runs in Test matches, reaching the mark on the fourth day of the third Test against Australia at Windsor Park in Dominica

Daniel Brettig at Windsor Park26-Apr-2012Shivnarine Chanderpaul has become the 10th batsman and the second West Indian to pass 10,000 runs in Test matches, reaching the mark on the fourth day of the third Test against Australia at Windsor Park in Dominica.In keeping with much of his career, Chanderpaul passed 10,000 in the midst of a desperate Caribbean fight in the fourth innings to stave off defeat at the hands of the Australians on a deteriorating pitch, moving forward from his inimitable stance to push a delivery from Michael Clarke wide of mid-on and go to 14 for his innings.After the day’s play, Chanderpaul said getting past the milestone was a target he had set himself. “I have been batting well and spending a lot of time at the crease, and to reach 10,000 Test runs is something special for me. It was one of the goals I set myself and I believe I have reaped for reward for the hard work I put in over the years.”When I go to bat, I know I have a job to do for the team and the people of the West Indies. Test cricket is the ultimate form of the game and this is where you want to perform and give your best. I will keep striving for more.”Chanderpaul reached the milestone in his 140th Test, emulating Brian Lara’s feat of also passing 10,000 for the West Indies. He was congratulated warmly by the Roseau crowd and also by Australia’s fielders, who all applauded once the single was taken. The 10,000th run also served to take his Test match batting average back above 50.Earlier in the series Chanderpaul had surpassed Lara as the highest run-scorer of all West Indian batsmen at Kensington Oval in Barbados, and said at the time that he had always taken particular satisfaction from runs made against Australia, as they are always hard-earned.”Always a tough, tough opposition and you always have to fight and it is always well to do good against them,” he said. “There are always things at the back of your mind because you always want to do well.”Against an opposition like Australia if you’re doing well against them you know the world is watching. When you go against them you have to bring your A game. You can’t just walk out and decide that you can play anyhow against them. You have to step up.”At 37, Chanderpaul has witnessed many barren years in West Indies cricket, but has expressed optimism that the team is showing signs of significant improvement under the captaincy of Darren Sammy and the coaching of Ottis Gibson. This has encouraged him to prolong his career, having debuted against England in his home country of Guyana in March 1994.”We all can see it, the guys are getting better, the younger players are coming through,” Chanderpaul had said in Barbados. “That’s what we’ve been aiming for over the years, you want to see the younger players come through. Now we’re seeing it and that’s the future, we have to plan that way.”Chanderpaul is doing his best to support this development with his bat, again leading the averages and aggregates against Australia. Their coach Mickey Arthur offered generous praise to a batsman he had first seen on the 1998-99 West Indies tour of South Africa.”Shiv’s been outstanding all series. He’s been quite brilliant really. He’s certainly thwarted our bowlers. He’s shown why he’s got 10,000 runs in Test cricket,” Arthur said. “Very uncomplicated technique even though it looks very weird on the eye. He’s been outstanding – to get him right at the end of the day has just lifted our dressing room hugely.”I first saw him when he was very young. He toured South Africa and he looked a very, very good player then. In my last series that I had with South Africa as coach against the West Indies I think Shiv got a hundred in every first innings so he was well on track. In this series he got a hundred in Barbados, 94 in Trinidad and runs again here. I’ve just seen so much of him and can’t help but admire the application and the desire to keep scoring runs. You’ve got to marvel at that – a fantastic achievement.”

O time de Diego Aguirre saiu na frente no marcador, mas deixou a vitória escapar e deixou Porto Alegre derrotado, por 2 a 1. Apesar do resultado ruim, o treinador uruguaio classificou o revés como normal e pediu que a equipe focasse no jogo contra o Cruzeiro, no próximo domingo.

– Temos que continuar. Estamos em uma boa posição na tabela. Não temos tempo para lamentar muito. Temos que tentar ganhar o próximo jogo, que será muito difícil – afirmou o comandante do Tricolor ainda na Arena do Grêmio.

Mesmo depois de abrir o marcador em Porto Alegre, o São Paulo baixou a a guarda e deixou o triunfo escapar. Na visão da comissão técnica, uma derrota diante do Grêmio, fora de casa, não é algo para se preocupar. Afinal, o Imortal é o atual campeão da Copa Libertadores e detém um dos elencos mais competitivos do país.

– É normal (referindo-se à derrota). O rival jogou bem e tem muita qualidade. Temos que estar tranquilos e nos prepararmos para superar essa derrota. Faltou um pouco mais, um contra-ataque a mais. Tivemos uma situação clara para fazer o 2×0 no fim do primeiro tempo. Mas o futebol é assim: se você não faz, toma. Temos que pensar no que teremos pela frente – pontuou Aguirre, lamentando as chances perdidas pela equipe, principalmente nos primeiros 45 minutos do confronto.

No próximo domingo, às 16h, o Tricolor do Morumbi mede forças com o Cruzeiro no Mineirão. A partida é válida pela 16ª rodada do Brasileirão. Apesar da derrota para o Grêmio, a equipe paulista segue na vice-liderança e permanece na perseguição ao Flamengo pela ponta da tabela.

South Africa’s home ODI and Test series against Australia will have the full benefits of the DRS after the host broadcasters unveiled their provisions for its use during the matches

ESPNcricinfo staff18-Oct-2011South Africa’s home ODI and Test series against Australia will have the full benefits of the DRS after the host broadcasters unveiled their provisions for its use during the matches.Following the ICC executive board’s decision to revert to a system of competing teams deciding for themselves whether or not to use the system, South Africa and Australia agreed to implement the aids for decision-making that were also in place the last time these two sides met, in South Africa in 2009.The officiating umpires will be able to call on technological aids including super and ultra slow motion cameras, ball-tracking via Hawkeye and evidence of edges via HotSpot cameras.There will be no restriction on the types of dismissals that may be referred by the competing teams, meaning lbw decisions can be referred.Australia will employ a similar incarnation of the DRS in its two-match home series against New Zealand in December, but it is unlikely they will be able to employ the system against India in the four Tests that follow, given the BCCI’s scepticism about the system.

Promising batsman Tom Beaton helped Western Australia take control at the WACA•Getty Images20-year-old Tom Beaton’s unbeaten 72 helped Western Australia to a 377-run lead on the third day of their Sheffield Shield match against South Australia. Alongside a half-century from captain Marcus North, it helped Western Australia take firm control despite four wickets Peter George.Coming into the day, Western Australia were sitting on a 72-run lead with nine wickets in hand and had to rebuild after losing nightwatchman Michael Beer early in the day. No. 4 to No. 9 all made good starts but it was only North and Beaton who passed 45.At one stage, when North fell, Western Australia were 6 for 211 with South Australia well in the game, but Beaton found solid support form Luke Ronchi, in a 37-run stand and then shared a bright stand with Nathan Coulter-Nile, who swished seven boundaries in his 41-ball 35. By the time he fell to the impressive George, Western Australia were well in control with a lead of 365.With his job now done with the bat, Coulter-Nile and his fellow bowlers have to finish off the match on the final day.
