Oman had put up 159 for 8 on the back of Aqib Ilyas’ 38-ball 59

ESPNcricinfo staff10-Oct-2021An unbroken 74-run partnership between Bhanuka Rajapaksa and Chamika Karunaratne helped Sri Lanka recover from a precarious position and complete a five-wicket win against Oman in Al Amerat. With the victory, Sri Lanka also sealed the two-match T20 series 2-0.Chasing 160, Sri Lanka seemed to be cruising at 87 for 2 by the 10th over thanks to Avishka Fernando’s 18-ball 33, but Oman clawed their way back into the game with three wickets in the space of eight deliveries. Fast bowler Mohammad Nadeem’s double-strike left the visitors reeling at 89 for 5, but Rajapaksa and Karunaratne stabilised the innings, their sixth-wicket stand eventually seeing the team home with 15 deliveries to spare. Rajapaksa slammed two sixes during his 21-ball 35, while Chamika Karunaratne carted three sixes in his 26-ball 35.Earlier, Oman, asked to bat, had put up 159 for 8 on the back of a half-century from No. 3 Aqib Ilyas. He stroked three fours and four sixes for his 38-ball 59, and shared a 59-run partnership for the fourth wicket with Ayaan Khan, taking the team to a promising 134 for 3. However, Ilyas’ dismissal in the 17th over triggered a slide, as Oman slumped from 134 for 3 to 142 for 7.Lahiru Kumara was the pick of Sri Lanka’s bowlers, finishing with figures of 4-1-20-2, while Karunaratne also chipped in with two wickets, including the key scalp of Ilyas.

ScorecardKeith Barker’s counterattacking 44 helped Warwickshire survive to a draw•Getty ImagesChris Woakes’ defiant 80 ensured Warwickshire warmed up for their bid to complete a double by holding off a late Nottinghamshire charge and claiming a draw in the final match of their campaign.The Bears – already confirmed as Division One champions going into their final match at Trent Bridge – take on Hampshire in the Clydesdale Bank 40 final at Lord’s and were at times struggling to avoid going into that clash on the back of a defeat as Paul Franks with 4for 47 and Luke Fletcher, 3 for 58 starred.But Woakes held their second innings together after an early slump to 32 for 3, as they were set an unlikely 421 to win from 90 overs, putting on 57 with Ian Westwood, who made 46 and then 89 with Ian Blackwell, 44 as the visitors recovered to 224 for 5.Franks’ three wickets in eight balls threw the game back up in the air before Keith Barker’ 44 not out and Chris Wright with an unbeaten 19 batted out the final 12.5 overs to deny the hosts a win that would have lifted them up to third in the Division One table.With a 395-run overnight lead, Notts strangely chose to bat on for four overs, during which they added 25 runs but declared on 469 for 8 before Franks, who finished 86 not out and Fletcher, on 42, had had the opportunity to reach their respective milestones.Fletcher quickly hit his straps with ball in hand as Varun Chopra nicked behind to Chris Read. The same combination then worked to good effect twice more as Darren Maddy was undone by extra bounce and left-hander Jim Troughton fended at one angled across him.Rikki Clarke began the Warwickshire fightback as he and Westwood shared a partnership of 46 until his leg stump was removed by Paul Franks soon after lunch, while Westwood’s resistance was eventually ended by spinner Graeme White, who induced a catch at slip.However, Woakes, who smashed two sixes into the new stand off White to reach fifty and hit 12 fours in his 139-ball knock, found another able partner in Blackwell either side of tea.At that point, there appeared little likelihood of a result until Franks first had Blackwell, who had struck three fours and two sixes from 85 balls, brilliantly caught at slip by Mullaney and then pinned Richard Johnson lbw next ball. When Woakes was caught at short cover, also off Franks, the tension grew but Notts could not ram home their advantage, even with the use of the new ball for the final 10 overs.

O Flamengo deixou de ganhar dois pontos no empate com o América-MG. Este foi o sentimento dos jogadores rubro-negros na saída do Independência. O capitão Réver admitiu que a expulsão de Cuéllar – aos 19 do segundo tempo – prejudicou a sequência do jogo e destacou o sentimento de derrota da equipe.

– A gente estava vencendo com um homem a menos. Uma falta meio duvidosa (expulsão de Cuéllar). Mas a gente não tem poder nenhum sobre a arbitragem. O desgaste de ter um homem a menos pegou um pouquinho. Fica um sabor amargo. Acho que a gente tem que ter um pouco mais de atenção. Estamos tomando gol com muita facilidade. Temos que rever nossos conceitos porque saímos daqui com um empate com gosto de derrota – disse o zagueiro.

O próximo compromisso do Flamengo no Brasileirão é contra o Ceará, domingo que vem, às 11h, no Maracanã. E para o jogo com os cearenses – além do volante colombiano, expulso – o técnico Maurício Barbieri não contará com Léo Duarte, que recebeu o terceiro cartão amarelo no empate em Belo Horizonte.

Antes de pensar na sequência na competição nacional, o Flamengo vira a chave para a Libertadores. Na quarta, o compromisso é pela Libertadores, no jogo de volta das oitavas de final, contra o Cruzeiro, no Mineirão. O Rubro-Negro precisa vencer por dois gols de diferença para se classificar para às quartas.

Cameron White has been dumped as Australia’s Twenty20 captain and replaced by George Bailey for the two matches against India next week

Brydon Coverdale23-Jan-2012Cameron White has been dumped as Australia’s Twenty20 captain and replaced by George Bailey for the two matches against India next week. And Australia’s selectors have announced the surprise recall of the 40-year-old spinner Brad Hogg, who made a T20 comeback this summer and has been the standout slow bowler in the Big Bash LeagueIn a major shake-up eight months before the ICC World Twenty20, the new selection panel under John Inverarity has sent a clear message that the T20 side needed refreshment. Australia made the final of the 2010 World T20, but since then they have lost seven matches and won only two, and sit fifth on the ICC rankings behind England, New Zealand, Sri Lanka and South Africa.The appointment of White as captain when Michael Clarke retired from the format last January was made by Andrew Hilditch’s selection panel with a view to building towards this year’s World T20, to be held in Sri Lanka in September. However, White made just 55 runs at an average of 7.85 in the BBL this season and Inverarity’s panel has made the change with at least four matches on Australia’s schedule before the World T20.Bailey, the captain of Tasmania and a team-mate of White at the Melbourne Stars, has not been in outstanding form either, having scored 114 runs at 19. However, he was viewed by the selectors as the right man to lead the side, with David Warner his vice-captain, while the Test vice-captain Shane Watson was not considered for the two games against India due to his ongoing injury problems.”The Australian T20 team has been ranked a rather disappointing sixth in the world and we’ve certainly considered that the team needs refreshment,” Inverarity said in announcing the squad in Melbourne on Monday. “It would be fair to say the national selection panel has been discussing this T20 squad for six or seven weeks.”If you look at [Bailey’s] record as captain … I’m of the view that Tasmania have done particularly well in recent years because of the leadership they’ve had, the well-defined leadership of Daniel Marsh and … then George has taken over. Last season they won the Shield under George, the year before they won the one-day competition under George. The results are there.”He’s widely respected throughout Australia. Those who play with him regard him very highly as a captain and as a leader. We’ve seen from Michael Clarke’s leadership, he has done very well not least because of his astute decision making on the field and George certainly has that too.”The decision means Bailey, 29, will play his first match for Australia in any format next week, and he will do it as captain. Bailey has been part of an Australian squad in the past – he was called up for the ODIs in New Zealand in early 2010 when Clarke returned home for personal reasons – but did not win a cap.Australia T20 squad

George Bailey (capt), David Warner (vice-capt), Travis Birt, Dan Christian, Xavier Doherty, James Faulkner, Aaron Finch, Brad Hogg, David Hussey, Brett Lee, Mitchell Marsh, Shaun Marsh, Clint McKay, Matthew Wade (wk)

“It has [come out of the blue] in some ways but it’s something I feel like I’m ready to do and I’m very excited by,” Bailey said. “I think once you have been captain and played in the team for a little while, any time you’re on the field you’re always thinking. I haven’t captained during this Big Bash but even so I’ve always been thinking about what I’d be doing in similar circumstances, who I’d be bowling and field placements and things like that. I don’t think that part of you ever goes away.”When he walks out as leader for the T20 at Sydney’s Stadium Australia next Wednesday and the match at the MCG two days later, Bailey will be in charge of a new-look side. The fast-bowling allrounder James Faulkner will be in line for his debut, while the batsman Travis Birt has earned a recall nearly two years after his last international appearance.But the big talking point, besides the captaincy, was the recall of Hogg, whose left-arm wrist-spin has been a major reason the Perth Scorchers have made the BBL final. Hogg retired from all cricket four years ago but made his T20 comeback this summer, and Inverarity said if all went well, Hogg would be part of Australia’s squad at the World T20 in spinning conditions in Sri Lanka this year.”In my conversation with Brad it was that it would be the World Cup and that if he was selected our interest with him wouldn’t go beyond that,” Inverarity said. “Of course it could change. But that’s the general intention … Two months ago we probably weren’t thinking about Brad Hogg. [BBL] games have changed when he’s come on to bowl. He has been outstanding.”The inclusion of Hogg meant there was no room for Steven Smith or Steve O’Keefe, two slow bowlers who had been part of the T20 side in recent months. Xavier Doherty was the other specialist spinner named to take on India. Brett Lee, Clint McKay and Daniel Christian will round out the attack, while Matthew Wade was not surprisingly named as the wicketkeeper.Michael Hussey was not named in the squad but Inverarity clarified that his exclusion was a workload issue. Hussey almost singlehandedly blasted Australia into the final of the World T20 in 2010 with a brilliant innings in the semi-final, and although he has not played a T20 international in a year and a half, he is expected to be part of the squad when Australia play two matches in the Caribbean in late March.”Mike is being rested for this,” Inverarity said. “Mike has had a pretty gruelling schedule of Test matches – Sri Lanka, South Africa, New Zealand and India. I had a chat to Mike in Perth about a week ago and we’re looking to give him a little bit of a break here, and probably in the early stages of the ODIs so he comes out fresh. We’re also keen to try some of these younger players. But at this stage there’d be no doubt that Mike Hussey would be playing in the T20s in the West Indies.”

Surrey 294 and 166 for 2 v Leicestershire 183
ScorecardGareth Batty struck a crucial blow for Surrey to remove James Taylor and then the quick bowlers took over•Getty Images

Surrey are on course for their first Championship victory of the season after a dominant display against Leicestershire led by their pace attack and followed up by the exciting Jason Roy. The visitors could only manage 183 as they were greeted by a rare overcast day, but when Surrey batted again in the sunshine they had few issues extending the lead to 277.While Chris Tremlett continued to cause problems, and Mark Ramprakash registered an effortless half-century to consolidate the home side’s position, this was a good day for Surrey’s youth. Firstly Stuart Meaker took 4 for 43 with some seriously quick bowling, then Roy, 20, gave a glimpse as to why the Surrey cricket manager, Chris Adams, calls him a “mini KP”.There was certainly a confidence and swagger about him at the crease despite a first-innings failure. Roy isn’t an opener by trade, but was selected by Rory Hamilton-Brown to try and solve the top-order dilemma. He won’t be seeing off the new ball in traditional fashion and when offered anything loose (or sometimes not that loose) he threw his hands into the shots. It’s a style that comes with risk but also brings reward.He took four boundaries off an over from Nadeem Malik with a series of stand-and-deliver drives, the second of which brought up his half-century from 40 balls. There was a certain irony that Roy’s innings ended playing defensively when he was given caught behind equal with his highest first-class score.With Roy taking his chance and Ramprakash back in the line-up if will be a tight squeeze fitting in Pietersen, not so much against Cambridge UCCE next week but more so for the Championship match against Essex. Hamilton-Brown is currently the least productive of the batsmen and fell in this innings trying to attack Henderson. A captain’s job is always tougher when runs aren’t coming, but winning this match will help ease concerns.Play was delayed until 12.25 due to morning rain – the first for about a month in London – and the heavy atmosphere helped juice up an already green pitch. It was always going to be tricky for Leicestershire’s batsmen against a strong seam attack. That will have made it even more disappointing that James Taylor was bowled through the gate by Gareth Batty’s second ball in the last over before lunchCredit must go to Hamilton-Brown for a smart piece of captaincy. It would have been very easy to stick with his quicks, but there’d been turn for Claude Henderson yesterday and a nice piece of flight from Batty, who had just been driven through cover, drew Taylor into a mistake. It wasn’t the best moment for Taylor with James Whitaker, the England selectors, watching from the stands.Leicestershire’s innings was seriously undermined after the interval as three wickets fell for two runs. The rapid Meaker had Jacques du Toit and Will Jefferson caught behind; the first with an excellent delivery which nipped away and the second thanks to a flat-footed drive which undid some determined work from Jefferson. Meaker, meanwhile, continued his strong start to the season which was interrupted last week by a hamstring tweak.Paul Dixey, the debutant wicketkeeper, then failed to get on top of Tremlett’s extra bounce as he fended a catch to gully. As he had been on the first evening Tremlett was excellent, hitting a taxing length and making the most of the good bounce in the surface. Again he was handled sympathetically by his captain and not overworked.The follow-on was looming until Resistance came from Henderson and Wayne White who counterattacked in a positive seventh-wicket stand as the sun finally managing to burn through the clouds. Dernbach was the most expensive of Surrey’s attack, striving a little too hard on a surface that required control, but he provided the breakthrough with a trademark slower ball that confounded Henderson and took off stump before adding White as his second scalp.Meaker deservedly wrapped up the tail and showed the value of having someone express to attack the lower order. There aren’t many really quick bowlers in county cricket and if Meaker continues to make strides greater honours may await.

Newcastle United journalist Luke Edwards has been left raging over news of a bizarre Newcastle kit that will reportedly be on show next season.

The Lowdown: Saudi kit

As shared by Edwards for The Daily Telegraph, there has been an image leaked in the last 24 hours of the St. James’ Park faithful’s proposed third strip for the new season.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/newcastle-news-6/” title=”Newcastle news!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

It presents green sleeve and neck lines with the badge and manufacturer’s logo also coloured in green, on a pre-dominantly white shirt. It is very reminiscent of what the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) national team play in.

The Latest: Edwards reacts

Taking to Twitter, Edwards gave his instant reaction after hearing of the leaked shirt, calling it a ‘stupid’ idea:

“The Saudi third kit idea for NUFC was a stupid one and, quite honestly, the club deserve all the criticism coming their way over it.”

The Verdict: Needs rethinking

It is normal to have a secondary colour on away and third kits not usually seen in the club’s traditional colours, but colouring the badge and manufacturer name green is not needed and not subtle at all in light of controversies in the KSA.

If they were to keep those aspects in their traditional colours, and merely have the sleeve and neck outlines green, then it could be deemed an acceptable strip which both appeals to the new audience in the Middle East and does not detract from the legacy of the club in the North East.

Nonetheless, you can see where Edwards is coming from, and the club have to prepare to face criticism if they go through with the idea.

Liam Kennedy has been left buzzing over some Newcastle United news involving both Kieran Trippier and Callum Wilson.

The Lowdown: In training

Earlier this week, the St. James’ Park faithful posted pictures of Trippier and Wilson training with the rest of the squad after their respective injury setbacks.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/newcastle-news-6/” title=”Newcastle news!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

This came before Eddie Howe confirmed that the latter could make a return away at Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon, while they will have to make a late call on Trippier.

The Latest: Kennedy buzzing

Taking to Twitter, Newcastle World journalist Kennedy gave his instant reaction to the pictures of both of them in training with the squad:

“Now this really is things you LOVE to see.”

The Verdict: Big boost

It is certainly a big boost to see both players back in training after so long out, especially now given the news that they could feature on Sunday.

They are two key players in the team, as evidenced by the fact that Trippier currently ranks as their best performer in the top flight so far this season, while Wilson remains their top scorer with six goals (WhoScored).

Having them back will only make the Magpies stronger going into the rest of the run-in, as they hope to finish the campaign off strongly before digging into the summer transfer window.
