Neil Adcock, the former South Africa fast bowler, has died at the age of 81 in Howick, KwaZulu-Natal
ESPNcricinfo staff06-Jan-2013Neil Adcock, the former South Africa fast bowler, has died at the age of 81 in Howick, KwaZulu-Natal. He had pneumonia and was also suffering from cancer for a long period of time.Adcock played 26 Tests for South Africa between 1953 and 1962, and took 104 wickets at an average of 21.10. After he took 26 wickets in a Test series in England in 1960, Wisden honoured him as one of their five Cricketers of the Year in 1961. He played 99 first-class games, taking 405 wickets at 17.25 apiece. After retiring, Adcock became part of SABC’s radio commentary team.”Neil was one of the great fast bowlers during what was truly a golden era of fast bowling,” Cricket South Africa’s acting chief executive Jacques Faul said. “At that time England had Trueman, Statham and Tyson; Australia had Lindwall, Miller and Davidson; and the West Indies had Hall and Gilchrist. Neil was right up with the best of them.”On behalf of the CSA family and fans around the country I extend our condolences to his wife, Maureen, his family and friends.”

India have dropped Virender Sehwag for the first three matches of the five-ODI series against England, which begins on January 11 in Rajkot. The decision came after Sehwag was left out of the XI that beat Pakistan in an ODI in Delhi earlier in the day. India gave a maiden limited-overs call-up to Cheteshwar Pujara, who scored 203 off 221 balls in a Ranji Trophy match last week.A BCCI source told ESPNcricinfo that this could well be the end of Sehwag’s limited-overs career. Sehwag has been dropped, said the source, because “he doesn’t figure in the plans for the 2015 World Cup”. Pujara has been brought in “to anchor the innings, especially in the wake of new rules”, which now allow a maximum of two bouncers per over and require a minimum of five fielders inside the circle at all times, which encourages more attacking bowling. The selectors have left it to the team management to decide Pujara’s batting position.Pujara’s inclusion was the only change to the squad that lost 1-2 to Pakistan, which meant MS Dhoni, India’s best batsman in the series, kept his captaincy despite calls from former selectors for fresh leadership. The sources said Dhoni’s captaincy didn’t go through much of a debate.Rohit Sharma was retained despite poor returns in ODIs of late. His last six scores were 5, 0, 0, 4, 4 and 4. Since the end of the series against West Indies in 2011, when he was the Man of the Series, Rohit has averaged 13 over 14 matches with one half-century. Rohit escaped the axe primarily because of “lack of alternatives”. He might not have made it had Manoj Tiwary been fit.Since his double-century against West Indies in December 2011, Sehwag has averaged 23 over 11 matches, including a top score of 96. Sehwag is possibly seen as the weaker fielder, which becomes significant keeping in mind the World Cup in Australia.Sehwag’s replacement, Pujara, is quick in the field and has been scoring runs. After his double-century that stunned Madhya Pradesh six days ago, Pujara said he knew his time was not far away. “That [ODI selection] is something that is not in my control,” Pujara had told ESPNcricinfo. “I have always performed in domestic one-dayers. I don’t need to worry about it. My time will come. One way or the other I will get my chance to play in the ODI team. I just need to keep performing.”The bowlers were all retained after they successfully defended 167 against Pakistan on Sunday, India’s fourth-lowest score batting first in an ODI win.Squad: MS Dhoni (capt), Cheteshwar Pujara, Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Ishant Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane, Ashok Dinda, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Shami Ahmed, Amit Mishra.

Gary Putland and South Australia completed a memorable week in Melbourne with a four-wicket victory over Victoria in the domestic limited overs match at the MCG
ESPNcricinfo staff28-Nov-2012 Scorecard Gary Putland and South Australia completed a memorable week in Melbourne with a four-wicket victory over Victoria in the domestic limited overs match at the MCG.Backing up from a match haul of 12 for 92 in SA’s Sheffield Shield win over the Bushrangers, Putland claimed another match award by claiming 4 for 44 as the hosts were restricted to 8 for 241.In reply, the Redbacks were given the perfect start by Michael Klinger and Phillip Hughes, the openers adding 164 before a collapse of 6 for 48 gave Victoria some hope of snatching the points.However the wicketkeeper Tim Ludeman and the captain Johan Botha rallied the chase to overhaul Victoria’s total with 22 balls to spare.Putland’s haul included the wicket of the Bushrangers’ top scorer Peter Handscomb, who was yorked after making an attractive 64.SA’s wobbles in the chase came via a combination of diligent bowling by Scott Boland and a series of ill-advised swings at short-pitched deliveries, offering a series of catches to the Victorian fielders before Ludeman and Botha settled the affair.

Tim Wright, the former chief executive at Deccan Chargers, has registered his ‘foreign decree’ in the City Civil Court in Secunderabad, asking the court to enforce the judgement of the London court.
Nagraj Gollapudi06-Sep-2012Tim Wright, the former chief executive at Deccan Chargers, who in July won a £10.5 million legal dispute against the franchise filed in the Royal Courts of Justice in London, has registered his ‘foreign decree’ in the City Civil Court in Secunderabad, asking the court to enforce the judgement of the London court. The hearing is set for October 3, but it is understood Wright is also pressing for an emergency hearing which could stall the plans of Deccan Chronicle Holdings Limited (who own Chargers), who have put the franchise on sale on September 13.A foreign decree refers to a judgement that is heard in a court outside of India but which relates to an Indian company or individual. The claimant needs to file the decree in an Indian court for execution of the judgement delivered by the foreign court. UK and India are signatories to a reciprocal treaty on enforcement and the Indian court will only look at issues as may relate to enforcement. The Indian court is not empowered to look at the merits, but relies on the Judgment made by the courts of England.In the petition, filed under Section 44A of the Code of Civil Procedure in the City Civil Court at Secunderabad, Wright has sought execution of the order passed by the High Court of Justice, Queen’s Bench Division in London, UK, on July 16, 2012, against DCHL. In addition Wright also wants DCHL to pay his legal costs incurred during the court proceedings in London, an amount believed to be in excess of £1 million. He has asked the court to attach and sale of various movable and immovable assets and properties of DCHL, including the Deccan Chargers franchise.Wright, who took charge after the first IPL, sued both Deccan Chargers Sporting Ventures and DCHL in February 2009 after the franchise owners made repeated breaches of his contract. Following changes made to the team leadership and structure made by Wright, Deccan Chargers won the IPL in 2009 having finished last in the inaugural edition. Wright appointed Adam Gilchrist as the captain and gave Darren Lehmann his first coaching role.Under the terms of Wright’s contract, which contained a £10 million severance guarantee clause, Wright filed a claim in the Royal Courts of Justice in London, which DCHL initially challenged. But they lost the right to have the case heard in India and then formally submitted to the court in London agreeing to the date of the trial and other requirements. However, on the day of the hearing (July 16), DCHL, the defendant, did not report to the court.

Matt Prior, the England wicketkeeper, and the New Zealand opener Martin Guptill have been signed by the Sydney Thunder to substitute for Chris Gayle and Shahid Afridi at various points of this summer’s BBL.Guptill will play for the Thunder in their first match of the tournament, a “derby” against the Sydney Sixers at the SCG on December 5, before Gayle takes his place in the team for the remainder of the matches.”Martin is an outstanding player in all formats,” the Thunder coach Shane Duff said. His T20 record is exceptional and he will be of vital importance to us in the round one game against our cross town rivals.”Prior’s role in subbing in for Afridi is less clear, though as England’s Test match gloveman he will not be available until the conclusion of the Tests against India, which conclude in Nagpur on December 17.BBL rules permit the signing of up to four overseas players, though only two may take the field at any one time.
Tanto a comissão técnica como os torcedores do Grêmio descobriram através de exames realizados nessa segunda-feira (8) quanto tempo o atacante Everton estará fora de combate. E as notícias não são muito animadoras pensando nas duas competições em que o clube ainda está disputando na reta final de 2018.
A contusão muscular de Everton na coxa direita, suficiente para a sua recente desconvocação da Seleção Brasileira, foi avaliada como de grau 2.
Logo, o tempo inicial de recuperação necessário será de 15 dias, algo que fatalmente tira o jogador das próximas duas rodadas do Brasileirão diante do Palmeiras no próximo domingo (14) e diante do América-MG no dia 20 de outubro em Belo Horizonte.
A maior preocupação por ora do lado gremista é conseguir recuperar seu camisa 11 pensando no primeiro jogo da semifinal da Libertadores programado para o dia 23 desse mês frente ao River Plate no Monumental de Núñez.
Apesar de em tese a quantidade de dias de recuperação não permitir isso, o clube tem confiança de que o processo de recuperação dessa lesão seja tão bom como foi no início do ano quando Everton superou problema no adutor da coxa em somente 10 dias. Na época, o tempo normal que era estabelecido para a plena recuperação era de três semanas.
