The ICC Tribunal’s statement on the spot-fixing sanctions

ESPNcricinfo staff05-Feb-2011The ICC tribunal announced a sanction of ten years’ ineligibility for Salman Butt (with five years suspended); seven years for Mohammad Asif (with two years suspended) and five years’ ineligibility for Mohammad Amir. The sanctions follow investigations of their role in spot-fixing, along with Mazhar Majeed, a players’ agent, during Pakistan’s tour of England in 2010.The tribunal released a statement after announcing the decision. The full text is reproduced below:’The independent Anti-Corruption Tribunal which has been hearing the cases of Salman Butt, Mohammad Amir and Mohammad Asif under the ICC’s Anti-Corruption Code for Players and Player Support Personnel had adjourned on Tuesday 11th January 2011 after a six day hearing. ‘The Tribunal reconvened today for further submissions and thereafter announced the following decisions.’The Tribunal found that the charge under Article 2.1.1 of the Code that Mr Butt agreed to bat out a maiden over in the Oval Test match played between Pakistan and England from 18 to 21 August 2010 was dismissed, whereas the charge under Article 2.4.2 that Mr Butt failed to disclose to the ICC’s ACSU the approach by Mr Majeed that Mr Butt should bat a maiden over in the Oval Test was proved.’The Tribunal found that the charges under Article 2.1.1 of the Code that (respectively) Mr Asif agreed to bowl and did bowl a deliberate no ball in the Lord’s Test match played between Pakistan and England from 26 to 29 August 2010, Mr Amir agreed to bowl and did bowl two deliberate no balls in the same Test, and Mr Butt was party to the bowling of those deliberate no balls, were proved.’We impose the following sanctions:’On Mr Butt a sanction of ten years ineligibility, five years of which are suspended on condition that he commits no further breach of the code and that he participates under the auspices of the Pakistan Cricket Board in a programme of Anti-Corruption education.’On Mr Asif a sanction of seven years ineligibility two years of which are suspended on condition that he commits no further breach of the code and that he participates under the auspices of the Pakistan Cricket Board in a programme of Anti-Corruption education.’On Mr Amir sanction of five years of ineligibility.’No further sanctions are imposed on any player and no orders are made as to costs. ‘The Tribunal has recommended to the ICC certain changes to the Code with a view to providing flexibility in relation to minimum sentences in exceptional circumstances.’The Tribunal note that it is for the ICC, whether and if so when, the fully reasoned decision in respect of the breaches of the Code and of the sanctions imposed in consequence should be published.’It is our strong and unanimous view that it is in the interests of all concerned in the world of cricket that publication should take place as soon as possible.’

As we enter the final furlongs of the 2021/22 campaign, you would be hard-pressed to find a Celtic supporter who does not think that Ange Postecoglou has done a sterling job following his appointment at Parkhead last summer.

Indeed, the Hoops currently lead their Old Firm rivals at the top of the Premiership table by six points, gave a good account of themselves in the Europa League group stage and have already lifted the Scottish League Cup.

Furthermore, the 56-year-old Bhoys boss has also demonstrated his dab hand in the transfer market, spending nominal fees on the likes of Kyogo Furuhashi, Carl Starfelt, Liel Abada, Josip Juranovic, Matt O’Riley, Giorgos Giakoumakis and Reo Hatate – many of whom have already earned cult hero status at Celtic Park.

And, with it being recently reported that the Greek-Australian manager is looking to sign a new left-back this summer, Postecoglou could well land the Hoops another bargain by reigniting his interest in Derby County starlet, Lee Buchanan.

Indeed, with the 21-year-old’s contract at Pride Park set to expire this summer, and Wayne Rooney’s side being unable to activate a one-year extension clause as a result of the club remaining in administration, the England U21 international looks set to become available on a free transfer at the end of the season.

As a result, interest in the £2.25m-rated defender is certain to be high, with the likes of West Ham United and Nottingham Forest – both of whom were also reported to be keen on the youngster’s signing in January – more than likely to make an approach for Buchanan if presented with the opportunity.

However, Postecoglou’s tendency to afford Celtic’s most promising young players a regular spot in his starting XI will certainly be an attractive proposition for the Derby full-back, something that could well give the Hoops an advantage in the race for the 21-year-old’s signature.

Indeed, with 20-year-old Abada being the 56-year-old manager’s most used player so far in 2021/22, and the Israel international’s extremely impressive returns having already seen him linked with a move to the Premier League, Buchanan will be encouraged that Celtic could well prove a pathway to one of Europe’s big five leagues at some point in the future.

And, with the defender having been dubbed an “incredible” talent and tipped to have a “real bright future” in the game by former England captain Rooney, it is clear that the £5k-per-week sensation is indeed an incredibly exciting prospect.

As such, all things considered, it would appear an extremely wise move for Postecoglou to launch an offensive for the England youth international this summer, as a move from Pride Park to Parkhead would very much seem a transfer that would suit all parties down to the ground.

O áudio de Whatsapp de Anderson Salles, zagueiro do Novorizontino, chamando o São Paulo de “carniça”, foi lembrado por Jucilei logo após a classificação do Tricolor para as semifinais do Campeonato Paulista. E o meio-campista fez questão de desafiar o defensor do time do interior a eliminar o Palmeiras, nesta quarta-feira.

– Agora só falta o Anderson Salles fazer a parte dele amanhã para enfrentar a gente na semifinal – comentou o camisa 8 do São Paulo, logo depois da vitória por 2 a 0 sobre o São Caetano, no Morumbi, nessa terça-feira.

No final de semana, vazou um áudio de Anderson Salles falando “no mata-mata, se a gente pega um São Paulo da vida, aí já era, é de igual para igual com aquelas carniça”. O jogador já avisou que não tinha a intenção de desmerecer o Tricolor.

Nesta quarta-feira, às 21h45, o Novorizontino tem uma complicada missão. Jogando em casa, perdeu por 3 a 0 o jogo de ida das quartas de final para o Palmeiras. Agora, precisa golear no Allianz Parque para se classificar – vitória por até dois gols dá a vaga aos anfitriões e triunfo por três gols de vantagem para a equipe de Anderson Salles leva a decisão para os pênaltis.

A tarefa do Novorizontino é tão difícil que Jucilei, depois de sair dos vestiários do Morumbi, mais tranquilo, já comentava sobre um provável clássico pelas semifinais do Campeonato Paulista, com jogo de ida no final de semana (veja as possibilidades de adversários do São Paulo).

– Vai ser clássico, são dois times grandes. Temos de focar bastante, descansar e encarar como final – discursou o volante.

O Vasco venceu mais uma na Taça Rio e outra vez mostrou raça e determinação até os últimos minutos de partida para conseguir sair com o triunfo. Contra o Boavista, a equipe comandada por Zé Ricardo venceu por 4 a 3, mas apesar do resultado, muitos erros ainda foram vistos e precisam ser consertados para a estreia na fase de grupos da Libertadores da América.

A bola aérea que assombrou o Cruz-Maltino contra o Jorge Wilstermann, voltou a ser problema contra o Boavista, em Cariacica. Na primeira etapa, o time de Saquarema aproveitou as bolas paradas para marcar duas vezes. No primeiro, Martín Silva teve falha que não costuma ter e no segundo, Elivelton subiu sozinho para balançar as redes.

O gol da vitória do Vasco foi marcado pelo zagueiro equatoriano Erazo, que mesmo feliz com o triunfo, reconheceu os erros do sistema defensivo em mais uma partida na temporada.

– Feliz pelo gol, temos coisas para corrigir, mas o grupo está de parabéns, sempre acreditando,no jogo passado foi igual, tomara que a gente continue no caminho das vitórias, pegando confiança.

Antes da estreia na fase de grupos da Libertadores contra a Universidad do Chile no próximo dia 13, o Vasco tem o clássico contra o Fluminense neste meio de semana e no outro fim de semana enfrenta o Madureira. Zé Ricardo espera corrigir e acertar o posicionamento dos seus jogadores nesses dois compromissos.

New Zealand ended the fourth day dreaming of a famous win in Ahmedabad after India’s vaunted batting proved no match to an inspired Chris Martin

New Zealand ended the fourth day dreaming of a famous win in Ahmedabad after India’s vaunted batting proved no match against an inspired Chris Martin, whose ninth five-wicket haul left the home side effectively at 110 for 6. The mayhem in Motera in the second half of the day was in complete contrast to the morning session when Kane Williamson’s debut Test century steered New Zealand past 400 and the match looked set to meander towards a dull draw. Instead, India are looking to their chief firefighter, VVS Laxman, to put in a third consecutive match-turning second-innings effort.India seemed to have wrested a slim advantage after prising out the final five New Zealand wickets for 42. With Hamish Bennett injured and Jesse Ryder nursing a calf strain, New Zealand’s man-for-all-occasions Daniel Vettori would have to share the new ball with Martin. The possibility of Virender Sehwag cashing in to help India force a result was very much alive.What unfolded couldn’t have been more different. Gautam Gambhir made his third successive second-innings duck, inside-edging Martin to the keeper. On a pitch which had till then seemed comatose, Martin got the ball to jag in appreciably, forcing the batsmen to play cautiously.New Zealand’s fielding had been abysmal in the first innings, with several dropped catches, but substitute Martin Guptill’s sublime bit of fielding sent back dangerman Sehwag. Rahul Dravid punched the ball towards mid-off, where Guptill threw himself to his left to cut it off, causing confusion among the batsmen. Dravid stopped and sent Sehwag back after taking several paces down the track, and Guptill’s reverse-flick while still on his knees was accurate enough for the bowler to run out the stranded Sehwag.It got even better for New Zealand as a tentative Dravid poked at a ball outside off from Martin that held its line to feather it to the keeper. India went in to tea at 2 for 3, but were comforted on seeing the man in form, Sachin Tendulkar, pick off ten runs off a Martin over soon after the break.Smart Stats

Kane Williamson’s 131 is the highest score by a New Zealand batsman against India on debut. It is also the second-highest score by a New Zealand batsman on debut behind Matthew Sinclair’s 214 against West Indies.

Chris Martin’s spell of five for 25 is the fifth-best bowling performance by New Zealand bowler in India and at present, the second best by a visiting bowler at Ahmedabad behind Dale Steyn’s 5 for 23.

India’s score of 15 for 5 is their worst score at the fall of the fifth wicket against New Zealand and their second lowest overall. Three of the six worst scores at the fall of the fifth wicket have come against New Zealand.

Daniel Vettori became the fifth New Zealand batsman to reach 4000 runs in his 101st Test. He has 3995 runs for New Zealand and 8 for the ICC World XI.

Gautam Gambhir has now made three ducks in his last five innings and just 86 runs in his last nine innings. During that period, his average has fallen from 57.50 to 49.92.

That proved only a temporary relief as another Martin indipper took Tendulkar’s inside-edge on its way to the leg stump. Martin greeted new man Suresh Raina with a surprise bouncer, and then slipped in a fuller delivery the next over; Raina was caught on the crease and nicked a drive to slip. India were 15 for 5 – India’s second-worst score at five down in their Test history – and there could have been further trouble when Dhoni was struck high on the pads three balls later by yet another incutter.Laxman and Dhoni set about reviving the Indian innings, though there were no easy runs on offer from the accurate New Zealand spin pair of Vettori and Jeetan Patel. They eased the ball around for singles, and threw in the odd boundary, and when they had blunted the bowling for 24 overs, New Zealand’s hopes started to recede. Martin wasn’t done for the day, though, and an effort-ball from him produced some extra bounce and Dhoni chopped the ball onto the stumps. Harbhajan came out and attempted the big shots, pulling some off and missing others, but manage to remain unbeaten with Laxman at stumps.New Zealand will fancy their chances of winning this Test, a position India would have expected themselves to be in after their first innings. First, they hadn’t anticipated New Zealand’s spirited batting performance. Williamson, supported by his captain Vettori, who played a characteristically gritty innings, added 86 in the morning before Williamson fell in the final over before lunch with New Zealand well past 400.India’s chances in the session before that late breakthrough came in the first four overs: a couple of lbw appeals against Vettori and a Williamson nick just short of third slip. For the next 100 minutes, it was all New Zealand. Williamson hit a couple of boundaries off Zaheer Khan – a pull behind square and a glance to fine leg three balls later – to move from 93 to 101 and become the eighth New Zealander to make a hundred in his first Test. There were no extravagant theatrics that you might expect from a 20-year-old who had played a fine innings to rescue his team from a tight spot; just a big grin and a wave of the bat towards the dressing room.Vettori settled down after his initial jitters, and went past 4000 Test runs, again showcasing how much his batting has developed in the last few years. India’s bowlers were flat in the morning and it didn’t help that Zaheer, who has been Dhoni’s go-to bowler, didn’t appear to be 100% fit, rarely hitting even 130kmh. India wheedled out the last four New Zealand wickets in the hour-and-a-half after lunch but could scarcely have imagined the nightmare to follow.

كشفت تقارير صحفية بريطانية، عن موقف الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز، من قواعد الوقت المحتسب بدل الضائع الجديدة التي ظهرت في كأس العالم قطر 2022.

بطولة كأس العالم التي انطلقت الأحد الماضي، شهدت وقتاً محتسباً بدلًا من الضائع كبير وغير طبيعي سواء في الشوطين الأول أو الثاني، وذلك حسب توجيه الحكام من قبل رئيس اللجنة بالاتحاد الدولي، الإيطالي بييرلويجي كولينا.

هذا أدى إلى أن هناك مباريات تخطت حاجز الـ100 دقيقة، وتحديدًا مواجهة إيران وإنجلترا التي وصلت إلى 117 دقيقة.

وحسبما أفادت صحيفة “ذا صن” البريطانية، الدوري الإنجليزي ليس لديه النية لتعديل قواعد ضبط الوقت المحتسب بدل الضائع، وسيبقى كما هو.

وأشارت التقارير إلى أن من أولويات الحُكام الإنجليز في بريميرليج، هو التشديد على اللاعبين في عدم إهدار الوقت، وهو ما لا يستدعي زيادة عدد دقائق الوقت الإضافي.

كما شدد التقرير، على أن زيادة عدد الوقت في الدوري الإنجليزي وسط تلاحم المواسم وضغط المباريات، سيزيد من مخاطر الإصابات والإرهاق للاعبين.

As per Sky Sports reporter Lyall Thomas, some transfer news has come out of West Ham United, and it involves Borussia Monchengladbach star Matthias Ginter.

The Lowdown: Newman and Moyes face big summer…

Hammers officials, according to club insider Claret & Hugh, are soon set for a crunch meeting to determine the amount of money which will be allocated to both David Moyes and head of recruitment Rob Newman’s transfer kitty.

[web_stories_embed url=”https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/web-stories/west-ham-newest-updates/” title=”West Ham newest updates!” poster=”” width=”360″ height=”600″ align=”none”]

Depending on the outcome of these financial discussions, Moyes and Newman could be set for a big window, but a lot could also come down to West Ham’s run in the Europa League or if they qualify for Europe next season.

The free agent market, as a result, could be a fruitful source for talent to bolster West Ham’s squad at zero cost.

Sharing news, Sky journalist Thomas has now lifted the lid on a potential Bosman transfer for the club this summer.

The Latest: West Ham eye Ginter…

As per his sources, the Irons are now eyeing Bundesliga defender and Germany international Ginter – joining ‘a lot of top clubs’ who have been keeping tabs on the in-demand star.

The 28-year-old, as he’s already confirmed, is set to move on this summer after his contract expires – prompting West Ham to now take note as they eye him for Moyes.

The Verdict: Make a move?

Ginter, a mainstay for his club, has played the second-most top flight minutes for Gladbach behind goalkeeper Yann Sommer – all while ranking in as their fourth-best performer by average match rating (WhoScored).

He’s also made the second-most clearances per 90 (3) out of their squad, standing out as a solid and reliable defender who could seemingly strengthen Moyes’ options at centre-half.

Valued at around £21.6 million by Transfermarkt, bypassing this fee entirely and signing Ginter for free comes as a potential bargain for West Ham.

Leicestershire have been plunged into a new crisis with the news that Tim Boon, their senior coach, is to leave the club

George Dobell14-Sep-2010

Leicestershire have been plunged into a new crisis after it was confirmed that Tim Boon, the head coach, will leave the club at the end of the seasonESPNcricinfo understands that Boon will shortly be appointed as England U19 coach. It will mean that Leicestershire have lost their chief executive (David Smith), their chairman of cricket (Paul Haywood) and now their senior coach within a matter of weeks. All three are known to have expressed grave reservations over the continuing involvement of Neil Davidson as chairman of the club.His position had seemed untenable for some weeks. He was recently one of the signatories of a letter – purporting to be from the entire playing and coaching staff at Grace Road – asking for Davidson to resign or for him to be removed by the Leicestershire CCC board. Boon’s position was subsequently described as “unsustainable” by Davidson.The news will come as a blow to Leicestershire’s coterie of talented young players, however. Boon has an excellent reputation of developing emerging talent and has been credited for his role in the emergence of James Taylor, Nathan Buck and Josh Cobb.Matthew Hoggard, the Leicestershire captain who was the co-signatory of the letter calling for Davidson’s removal, may also feel he has lost a key ally.Boon’s departure will increase the pressure on Davidson, however. A group of disaffected Leicestershire members have already called for a Special General Meeting to discuss the events leading to the departure of Smith as chief executive and to call a vote of no confidence in the board. Their concerns will only have been heightened by news of Boon’s departure.Boon has previously coached England at U17 and U19 level and was the England assistant coach under Duncan Fletcher. He became senior coach at Grace Road at the start of 2006.
