India team director Ravi Shastri has urged India to start off series with wins instead of playing catch-up after early losses

Alagappan Muthu23-Feb-2016There is theatre in a counterattack and India have played the protagonist for a while now. They went down to Australia in the five-match ODI series but came back with T20I wins to square the eight-match limited-overs tour. Against Sri Lanka at home, they lost the first match before wrapping up a 2-1 scoreline and another trophy. Team director Ravi Shastri, however, has had enough of that. He prefers India buck up and begins series with wins as well.”We don’t want to always come from behind. Sometimes we want to start also well. So hopefully we’ll be looking to do that in this tournament,” he told reporters in Fatullah where the Indian team trained ahead of the opening match of the Asia Cup’s main round. “Like I said, every game from now is important before the World Cup. Yes, we are playing the Asia Cup but the momentum is good so it’s important to keep that momentum going.”Shastri has been the man the BCCI have turned to to help the Indian team come back from unfavourable results. He was appointed the team’s cricket manager in 2007 in the wake of a first-round exit at the World Cup. His current and rolling post of team director was created in August 2014 as a response to India’s poor form on overseas tours. A few winning starts and the ability to build on them can be the best outcome for Shastri and the team going into a World T20 at home.India’s first challenge in the Asia Cup will come from the Bangladesh, who were near unstoppable during the last meeting between the two teams. Mustafizur Rahman claimed five wickets on ODI debut and then six more in the next game to spearhead a 2-1 victory. Shastri, however, appears quite comfortable a repeat of that will not happen.”That was eight months ago, I’ve already forgotten about it,” he said. “There’s been plenty of cricket since. Ask about what’s been going on in the last two months. Anything before that, I don’t have in my memory.”Shastri is more than aware of the hosts’ threat though, after a breakout 2015 when they reached their first World Cup quarter-final and secured maiden series wins over Pakistan, India and South Africa. “I’ve seen cricket in Bangladesh grow, I’ve come here right through the 90s as a broadcaster. I’m happy to see the way cricket has developed and I’m happy to see the Bangladesh has evolved as a team. No team can take them lightly as they showed last year playing one-day cricket and tribute to them. So they have the respect of every opposition and India will be no different.”

Afghanistan reinvigorated their hopes of qualifying for the main round of the Asia Cup T20 with a thrilling three-wicket win over Oman in Fatullah on Saturday

Scorecard and ball-by-ball detailsFile photo: Dawlat Zadran’s twin sixes in the last over helped Afghanistan seal their first win in the Asia Cup T20 qualifiers•Chris WhiteoakAfghanistan reinvigorated their hopes of qualifying for the main round of the Asia Cup T20 with a thrilling three-wicket win over Oman in Fatullah on Saturday. The star of the show was Dawlat Zadran, who clubbed two consecutive sixes in the final over bowled by left-arm spinner Ajay Lalcheta as Afghanistan chased down 166 with three balls to spare.Oman, seeking a repeat of their performance over Hong Kong, opted to bat and were powered by the opening combine of Zeeshan Maqsood (52) and Jatinder Singh (23). Adnan Ilyas, the No. 3 batsman, built on the firm base to score an enterprising 27-ball 54 comprising three fours and four sixes. But his dismissal in the 17th over proved to be the difference between where Oman eventually finished and where they would have liked to finish. Gulbadin Naib, the medium-pacer, was the most economical, picking two wickets and conceding just 24 runs off his full quota.For the second successive night, Mohammad Shahzad fell inside the second over as Afghanistan slipped right at the start of their chase. That Afghanistan got into a position from where they could chase down the target was largely due to Noor Ali Zadran, whose quickfire start allowed the middle-order batsmen to settle in. Noor Ali’s second-wicket stand of 54 off just 4.4 overs with Asghar Stanikzai, the captain, helped them steer clear of the asking rate.But the dismissals of Stanikzai and Karim Sadiq, the top-scorer in their loss to United Arab Emirates on Friday, threw a spanner in their works courtesy Mehran Khan as Afghanistan slipped to 60 for 3. The medium-pacer added the scalp of Mohammad Nabi to his kitty soon after to leave Afghanistan wobbly even before they had wiped out half the target.Najibullah Zadran set about repairing the innings, conjuring a 21-ball 23. In doing so, he ensured a lower-order collapse was averted, and more importantly, brought the difference between runs and balls to just three going into the last four overs. But there appeared to be another twist as Bilal Khan trapped Najibullah and Noor Ali lbw within three deliveries in the 17th over.With 21 needed off the last two overs, Samiullah Shenwari, who was left out of their tournament opener, hit two successive fours to ease the pressure, taking the game into the final over with 10 needed. After having nearly taken them home, Shenwari holed out to long-on with five balls to play. The scene was set for one of Lalcheta or Dawlat to be a hero. On the night, it was Dawlat’s ice-cool veins that prevailed in a tense clash.

Alastair Cook became England’s highest Test runscorer, overhauling Graham Gooch, when he reached 32 against New Zealand in the second Investec Test at Headingley

George Dobell at Headingley30-May-20153:43

Top 5 Test innings: Alastair Cook

Alastair Cook has overtaken his mentor and coach Graham Gooch to become the highest run-scorer for England in Test cricket.Cook required 31 runs to draw equal with Gooch’s record of 8,900 runs and, with a restrained drive to the cover boundary off Tim Southee, he passed the man who he has coached him, first with Essex and then with England, since he was 18 years old.Before the Headingley Test, he insisted that by his reckoning Gooch remained unsurpassed as the finest England Test batsman in history.Highlights of Cook’s career include scoring a century on debut (in Nagpur in 2006), plundering 766 runs in seven innings in the 2010-11 Ashes series, hitting three centuries in successive Tests to help England to a series victory in India in 2012 and becoming the second-youngest man – after Sachin Tendulkar – to make 5,000 Test runs.While he endured a grim run of form throughout much of 2013 and 2014, Cook has also made more Test centuries – 27 – than any England player and averages a fraction under 47. Doubts about his prowess as a tactical captain may remain, but he is a respected leader and his place among the greats of England batsmen is assured.Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of Cook’s new record is his relative youth. Gooch, also an Essex and England opening batsman, was 41 by the time he finished playing Test cricket; Cook is just 30 and could have some of the best years of his career ahead of him.Cook’s record – achieved in the same match in which James Anderson became the first England bowler to claim 400 Test wickets – is partially a reflection of the packed international schedule in the modern era which sees far more Test matches staged.He has already played 114 matches in a nine-year Test career that started in Nagpur in 2006, while Gooch managed 118 in a career that was interrupted by a three-year ban for going on a rebel tour to South Africa in the early 1980s.Twelve men from other nations have scored more Test runs than Cook. But few of them are still playing and, given Cook’s age and continued fitness, he could reach the top of the list by the end of his career.

Weston McKennie and Tim Weah may be heading back to square one at Juventus, with Massimiliano Allegri reportedly ready to quit his post.

Allegri prepared to end Bianconeri contract earlyCould walk away in the summer of 2024American stars would need to prove themselves againWHAT HAPPENED?

According to , Allegri is mulling over an early end to his contract in Turin. His current deal is due to run through to the summer of 2025, but said agreement could be brought to a close in 2024 if the 56-year-old opts to walk away.

Allegri is said to have attracted interest from Saudi Arabia, with teams in the Middle East ready to “cover him in gold”, while a well-earned break could also be taken in if the Serie A title-winning coach decides to wait on another challenge in Europe.

DID YOU KNOW?

Allegri is said to be growing disillusioned with life at Juve following the departure of former chairman Andre Agnelli – the man who re-hired him in 2021. He reportedly feels that the club are heading in a different direction to the one that he would favour, leading to questions being asked of his future.

Any departure for Allegri could hit USMNT stars McKennie and Weah hard. The former has worked his way back into favour this season – seeing a new contract mooted along the way – but his situation could change were a new boss to be brought in. Weah was snapped up in the summer transfer window by Allegri and the versatile United States international is another that may have to prove himself all over again in 2024-25.

Younis Khan, the Pakistan batsman, has pulled out of his deal to play for Yorkshire this season but the club have moved swiftly to sign Indian Test No.3 Cheteshwar Pujara.

ESPNcricinfo staff01-Apr-2015Younis Khan, the Pakistan batsman, has pulled out of his deal to play for Yorkshire this season but the club have moved swiftly to sign Indian Test batsman Cheteshwar Pujara.Younis had initially ruled himself out of Pakistan’s tour to Bangladesh in April and May, and agreed to a deal with Yorkshire until late May. But he had a change of heart and has now declared himself available for that tour. Yorkshire were unwilling to wait to see whether Younis was selected in the Pakistan squad and cancelled his contract.A replacement has been found immediately and Pujara, 27, should arrive to play for the same period as was agreed with Younis. The BCCI have agreed to Pujara’s deal but a work permit needs to be finalised. Yorkshire are hopeful Pujara, who briefly played for Derbyshire last season, will be available for the county’s opening match on April 12 against Worcestershire.”It is very disappointing, at this late stage, to pull out of the agreement with Younis,” Martin Moxon, Yorkshire director of cricket, said. “When the deal was agreed initially, it was on the understanding that Younis would not tour Bangladesh with Pakistan. Younis made it clear to us on Sunday that he would find it difficult to turn down should he be selected.”At this late stage that is no good to us. We had to make a decision and as result we have decided to cancel his contract.”But Pujara is a superb player who is hungry to perform in the English game. He is a classy right-hander who likes to dominate the crease and he will be a big asset for us during the early part of the new campaign.”Pujara, who has six Test centuries and averages 47.11 in 27 matches, added: “I’m very excited and honoured to be signing for Yorkshire. The club’s history is fantastic and being the current Champions is a testament to the quality of the club and staff.”I was looking to return to the UK after my previous experience of county cricket, which I greatly enjoyed and when Yorkshire made the offer I didn’t think twice. To wear the same white rose Sachin Tendulkar did is going to be a great feeling for me. I hope I can contribute to further success.”

Bellingham struggling with shoulder injuryReal Madrid star may need surgeryBut midfielder could play through the painGetty ImagesWHAT HAPPENED?

The 20-year-old dislocated his shoulder against Rayo Vallecano in early November and was forced to withdraw from England's recent Euro 2024 qualifiers as a result of the problem. The midfielder has been playing through the pain of late and scored in Madrid's 4-2 Champions League win over Napoli on Wednesday, meaning he became the first player to score in each of his first four appearances for Los Blancos in the competition. Now, The Athletic claim surgery 'is an option to completely resolve the issue', however, there are no plans at present for him to go under the knife. The report adds that if he were to have the operation, it would likely take two months to recover.

Bellingham has been nothing short of remarkable for Madrid since joining the Spanish side in the summer from Borussia Dortmund and his goal against Napoli was his 15th in 16 appearances for the European giants. Madrid are top of La Liga on goal difference ahead of Girona and four points ahead of Barcelona, so losing Bellingham, who is wearing shoulder protection during games, could be a huge blow for their silverware-chasing chances. Madrid's next top scorers behind the England international are Rodrygo (eight), Vinicius Junior (six) and Joselu (six).

GOALWHAT CARLO ANCELOTTI SAID

Following Madrid's win over Cadiz at the weekend, manager Carlo Ancelotti said: “He had and has the problem. But with the protection, he is fine. So he played a very good game today (Sunday).”

Which of the continent’s players still featuring in the UCL has the best chance of winning it?

Getty Images7Adel Taarabt

Benfica are the dark horses in the Champions League, but cannot be underestimated after eliminating Ajax in the Round of 16.

One-time wonderkid Taarabt, now reinvented as a central midfielder, remains a glittering talent on his day, and is enjoying a late-career revival at Benfica even if he’s dropped out of the international reckoning.

After his previous stints with Tottenham Hotspur, AC Milan and Queen’s Park Rangers, Benfica’s showdown with Liverpool may be the biggest match of his career.

AdvertisementGetty6Samuel Chukwueze

The last Nigerian still standing in the Champions League, Chukwueze won’t be going to the World Cup, but will surely be targeting another European trophy this season after last year’s Europa League triumph.

They have to get past Bayern Munich next, but after eliminating Juventus in the last round, the Yellow Submarine will fear no one as they look to reach the final four.

Chukwueze has had a limited impact in the UCL so far this season—starting just one match—although he could still have a big role to play during the latter stages.

Getty Images5Geoffrey Kondogbia

Atletico Madrid certainly have their work cut out against Manchester City, but could Diego Simeone be the man who inflicts the latest UCL heartbreak on Pep Guardiola?

Certainly, the Spanish giants have the resources to frustrate the Prem leaders, not to mention experience of reaching the Champions League final.

Kondogbia will have a major role to play in the heart of the park, having established himself as a key player at Atleti, while Mozambique’s Reinildo has settled quickly since signing from LOSC Lille in January.

Getty.4Edouard Mendy & Hakim Ziyech

Chelsea will need to improve dramatically this week following Saturday’s humbling at home against Brentford.

The 4-1 loss was one of the low points of Thomas Tuchel’s time in charge of the Blues, where various failings were exposed against their lowly local rivals.

It was a game to forget for Mendy, who was defended by Tuchel after the match, while Ziyech was one of the West Londoners’ better performers during a tricky outing.

The German coach will be expecting from a big response from all of his team when they face Real Madrid on Wednesday.

Worcestershire have recorded a post-tax profit for the fifth year in a row. The club announced a surplus of £58,772 for 2014

ESPNcricinfo staff07-Mar-2015Worcestershire have recorded a post-tax profit for the fifth year in a row. The club announced a surplus of £58,772 for 2014, a year in which they won promotion back to Division One of the Championship as well as reaching the quarter-finals of the NatWest T20 Blast.Worcestershire’s New Road ground was flooded last winter due to heavy rain but did not impact upon the season. Recent redevelopment, which has seen a hotel and conferencing facilities built, has contributed to Worcestershire’s stable financial results.”Over the last 18th months a great deal of work has been done to develop the club both on and off the pitch to continue the club’s aim of being a 365 day a year business,” chief executive David Leatherdale said.”The completion of the club’s new ‘View’ hospitality and conference facilities, along with the Premier Inn hotel, have added a new dimension to what we have to offer. To record a profit for the fifth year running is testimony to the fantastic support received from our many loyal members and spectators.”Added to this, the continued improvement on the pitch, which saw our young and growing team gain promotion to Division One of the LV= County Championship for the 2105 season, in what will be the club’s 150th Anniversary Year, and also saw Moeen Ali cement a place in the England team, all bodes well for the future.”

The one-day series between England and India began with an abandonment on a dank Bank Holiday in Bristol, as persistent rainfall prevented any possibility of the players taking to the field

ScorecardThe covers were firmly on in Bristol•Getty ImagesThe one-day series between England and India began with an abandonment on a dank Bank Holiday in Bristol, as persistent rainfall prevented any possibility of the players taking to the field.Rain had begun to fall the previous evening and continued through the night, with the pitch under covers ahead of the scheduled 10.30am start. Although it eased off for periods and the possibility remained for a 20-over game to begin as late as 3.45pm, another heavy shower spurred the umpires to call things off at around 1.30pm.It meant that for the third year running, the first ODI of the latter part of the English summer was washed out, after series against South Africa and Australia began in similar fashion in Cardiff in 2012 and at Headingley last year. There was also disappointment for Gloucestershire, with Bristol set to host its first ODI since 2010.The teams will move on to Cardiff for the second of five matches, taking place on Wednesday, with Alex Hales still awaiting his 50-over debut for England. Having lost the Test series 3-1, India will be hoping the change in format brings with it a change in fortune.
