Pakistan Cricket Board Permission Yousuf To Play Cricket In Bangladesh

March 18, 2010

Pakistan Cricket Board Permission Yousuf To Play Cricket In Bangladesh:LAHORE: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has given permission to batsman Mohammad Yousuf to play in a private league in Bangladesh. This comes after a day when the board reiterated that players need its permission for taking part in foreign competitions. “The PCB firmly conveys to all concerned that no player is allowed to play cricket outside Pakistan without having prior approval from the board in this regard,” the PCB statement said.

“Any player interested to play cricket in any part of the world should apply to the board to seek permission for the same.” A PCB spokesman said board chied Ijaz Butt had now given the green light to Yousuf to compete in a Bangladesh private league. “Yousuf had requested the PCB that he wanted to play in Bangladesh and Ijaz has given him the permission,” the spokesman added.

Last week the PCB barred Yousuf and Younus Khan from representing Pakistan for an indefinite period due to infighting, but said both players were eligible to compete in domestic cricket and abroad in competitions like county cricket and private leagues. The PCB had said that Yousuf and Younis were involved in infighting while on tour in Australia, which negatively affected the whole team. The PCB also imposed heavy fines on Shahid Afridi, Umar Akmal and Kamran Akmal after a review of the national team’s performance in Australia where they lost 3-0 in the Test series and were routed 5-0 in the one-day series. Shoaib Malik and Rana Navedul Hasan were banned for a year and also fined for unspecified reasons.

Ncaa Bracket 2010 Prediction

March 16, 2010

Ncaa Bracket 2010 Prediction:Filled out your NCAA tournament bracket for 2010 yet? The games start this coming Thursday, leaving fans a few days before online bracket challenges and office pools close. However, with 64 teams competing in the field to win it all, and the always looming potential for upsets and spoiler teams, it’s good to check out some of the NCAA expert picks for the NCAA Bracket Prediction 2010. ESPN had a recent show where five of its college basketball analysts made their picks including Jay Rinse, Dick Vitale and Digger Phelps.

First step in the process, get your 2010 NCAA tournament bracket printable so you can start filling it out with your picks. Next step, either analyze the teams based on games you’ve watched or start choosing those teams you like. You could also just randomly pick teams, but pay attention to seedings. For example, it’s very rare and Unlikely a 1 seed will lose in its first game. It’s possible for a 2, but highly Unlikely. After that it’s anyone’s guess. Of course no team is truly a lock, but many experts are picking Kansas and Kentucky in the final game. Some experts are picking all four of the # 1 seeds to make it to the Final Four in Indianapolis this year. That’s never a given, but it’s possible. Choosing the right spoiler upset teams can go a long way towards winning the office pool.

Many people feel this year Kansas is a safe bet to win it all, based on the fact they were the national champions several years ago. They’ve got experience and seniors as well as top players at almost every position, making for a tough team. Kentucky is also tough, but you can not count out Duke or Syracuse. And there’s always that potential spoiler team lurking in the NCAA tournament brackets.

Ncaa Basketball Tournament 2010 Predictions

March 15, 2010

Ncaa Basketball Tournament 2010 Predictions:NCAA basketball tournament 2010 is in full swing,This usually means that not just the players are hard at work for the tournament. The expert analysts are also hard at work making predictions for the outcome of the NCAA basketball tournament.

The field seems to almost wide open. However, a betting man might not want to pick a team other than Kansas or Kentucky to win it all, It could either way at this stage. Maybe, you are looking more at a third or fourth seed pick.

Other than Kansas there simply is not a very strong favorite in the tournament this year. That is not to say the tournament is not more exciting than ever. Being number in the tournament has helped Kansas odds a lot.

When looking at the prospects of picking a double digit seed like Cornell or Siena going far, you just might want to hold that thought as anything is possible.

Prediction so far speculate heavily whether or not Ohio State, Georgetown, Michigan State, Maryland and Tennessee will pull it off before the tournament is over.  The Midwest event can and will determine so much.

Second best team in the country, Kentucky, are still looking rather strong as a pick in the East. John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins may be youngsters but maybe that will work to their advantage in the end in April.

Broad And Swann Put On Top England Team

March 13, 2010

Broad And Swann Put On Top England Team:Stuart Broad and Graeme Swann shared five wickets between them to seize the intiative for England on the second day of the first test against Bangladesh on Saturday.

At the close Bangladesh, replying to England’s 599 for six declared, were struggling at 154 for five with only opener Tamin Iqbal standing firm.

Tamim was unbeaten on 81 after Paul Collingwood had collected his 10th test century to enable England to declare their first innings at 599 for six.

Facing an uphill task to avoid the follow-on, Bangladesh suffered an early setback when fast bowler Broad dismissed opener Imrul Kayes (4) and Junaid Siddique (7) with short-pitched deliveries before Swann continued his remarkable record of capturing a wicket in his opening over.

Swann had Aftab Ahmed (1) caught by Ian Bell at leg-slip to give the off-spinner a wicket with his fifth ball after the tea break and reduce Bangladesh to 51 for three.

Tamim then shared a 94-run partnership with Mahmudullah (51) to repair the damage before Swann struck again.

Mahmudullah, who had raced to his fifty off 54 balls with seven cleanly struck boundaries and a six, attempted a sweep shot but managed only to glove the ball to Collingwood at slip.

Skipper Shakib Al Hasan survived some anxious moments before he was bowled by Swann for one attempting do drive.

Swann could have added another wicket but nightwatchman Shahadat Hossain was given the benefit of the doubt by the third umpire in the same over when England appealed for a catch at silly point.

Collingwood, 32 not out overnight, punished the innocuous Bangladesh bowling with 145 from 188 balls.

He completed his century with a single off Shahadat and Ian Bell, his partner in the 184-run fifth wicket stand, drove the next ball to the cover boundary to bring up his fifty.

Collingwood, who hit 10 fours and four sixes, had one let off in his innings when Shakib dropped a return catch when the batsman was on 119.

Wicketkeeper Mushfiqur Rahim fumbled a chance off Bell when the batsman was on 64 off Razzak and he was again dropped by Rubel Hossain off Shakib. Rubel made amends for his mistake with the next ball to catch Bell for 84 and Alastair Cook declared the innings immediately.

Earlier, Cook fell short of a double century when off-spinner Mahmudullah had him caught and bowled for 173 in the 13th over of the morning.

Cook, resuming on 158 not out, eased past his previous career best of 160 but an attempted pull shot caught the leading edge and Mahmudullah took a simple catch. Cook struck 16 fours and two sixes in his 283-ball knock.

England, put into bat, ended the opening day on 374-3 with former skipper Kevin Pietersen contributing 99 runs.

Pacquiao Vs Clottey Round By Round

March 13, 2010

Pacquiao Vs Clottey Round By Round :P acquiao vs Clottey Live Stream Coverage End of Round 4. Round-by-round updates of the welterweight championship fight between Manny Pacquiao (50-3-2, 38 KO) and Joshua Clottey (35-3, 20 KO) at Dallas Cowboys Stadium.

At Round Four Clottey lands first punch of the round with a straight right after deflecting more jabs from Pacquiao. More good body shots from Pacquiao set up successful shots up top. And now in a sign of frustration, maybe, Pacquiao throws an illegal shot with both hands to either side of Clottey’s head. Referee says none of that, but when action resumes Pacquiao presses forward and puts Clottey in the corner.

Clottey out, but he took the most damage of the fight so far in that exchange. More good combinations from Pacquiao with Clottey continuing to cover up. He answers with a nice left jab, but it was all Pacquiao that round.
