Arindam Das, the next Prince of Kolkata?

He is the new wonder-kid on the blocks as far as Bengal cricket is concerned

Staff Reporter03-May-2001He is the new wonder-kid on the blocks as far as Bengal cricket is concerned. Arindam Das, according to many, is probably the best thing to have happened to Bengal cricket after Sourav Ganguly. The youngster has already proved his talent in the domestic season. Now he is all set to fly to the Commonwealth Bank Cricket Academy at Adelaide in Australia for a stint of coaching. The Cricket Association of Bengal is sponsoring the entire trip.Das’ performance this season looks quite impressive. In 30 innings he played at various levels, Das has scored over 2,000 runs. He has an average of 100-plus in the Under-22 competition and 58.20 in the Cooch Behar Trophy. Nicknamed `Don’ by his colleagues the young Das is the first one to blush about it. “The name was given to me when I was three years old. It’s not meant to belittle anybody,” is his first comment. He has another one to offer after much prompting. “If Sourav Ganguly can make it to the top from Bengal, I am confidentthat I will also be able to do so. I am not one to crib about practice and other facilities.” Das started taking lessons in cricket when he was only six from former Bengal cricketer Pranab Nundy. He is also indebeted to Gopal Bose for giving him valuable batting lessons. As Bose said today, “Cricket is all about three Ts. Talent, Technique and Temperament. He has all the ingredients to don the national colours.”Das would have made his debut in the senior Bengal side this season itself. However his engagements with the Under-19 side in the series against England prevented him from earning his maiden Ranji Trophy cap. However, he has no regrets. “I will get it when the opportunity comes,” is his shy reply. He believes that the coaching stint at Australia will benefit him tremendously. “As an opener I will have the chance to play pace bowlers. Here one only gets the chance to play spinners on slow turners. So my confidence against fast bowlers will definitely increase.” He also feels that there is not much of a difference in the domestic and international cricket that he hasplayed. “As a batsman my job is to play each ball on its merit. It does not matter whether I am playing at Lord’s or at a local cricket ground in Kolkata.” The bottom line for him however is hard work. “I can only work hard, score as many runs as possible and then leave the rest to God. My aim at the moment, is just that,” he concluded.

Sem data de estreia no Timão, Jadson aponta 'declaração infeliz' de médico

MatériaMais Notícias

Sem jogar uma partida oficial desde outubro do ano passado e sem nem sequer realizar treinamentos desde o mês seguinte, o meia Jadson vai demorar um tempo para ficar à disposição do técnico Fabio Carille e ser utilizado nas partidas do Corinthians. O próprio jogador de 33 anos ainda não sabe o prazo que será necessário para sua reestreia com a camisa alvinegra, o que deve ocorrer apenas a partir de março, segundo Carille.

-Estou há algum tempo parado, é importante ter uma bate de treinamento para não acontecerem lesões. Estou treinando dois períodos desde que cheguei e me esforçando ao máximo. O tempo vai depender da forma como estiver evoluindo, então espero que seja o mais rápido possível. Por mim já iria ao jogo amanhã (contra o Santo André), mas as condições físicas ainda não são as melhores – disse o meia, em sua apresentação.

O aspecto físico de Jadson neste início da segunda passagem pelo Corinthians, aliás, já foi tema de polêmica nos bastidores. Antes mesmo da oficialização da contratação do jogador, o consultor médico do clube, Joaquim Grava, deu uma entrevista à Fox Sports dizendo que o meia havia se apresentado quatro quilos acima do peso e em condições físicas ruins, o que demandaria um bom tempo de preparação. O meia reagiu mal às declarações, e no mesmo dia postou um texto numa rede social dizendo que teria que “calar muita gente, como foi em 2015”. Em sua apresentação, o jogador esclareceu a polêmica e falou sobre seu momento físico após um ano defendendo o Tianjin Quanjian, da China.

– Houve uma entrevista do doutor Joaquim Grava, até assisti, e ele não falou na maldade dessa situação, mas foi uma declaração infeliz. Depois conversamos, sem problema nenhum. Eu não tinha nem assinado com o Corinthians e as pessoas já falavam que eu não estava em forma. Que jogador que vem de férias, ainda mais eu, desde novembro sem atuar, bem fisicamente? Acabei me irritando na hora, falei com meu assessor. Mas algumas pessoas fazem comentários maldosos, pegaram um trecho da entrevista e fiquei chateado, por isso postei. Mas sempre tratei todos bem, abri a porta da minha casa, sempre com as críticas fui respeitoso e trabalhei para melhorar. Ali no texto eu generalizei um pouco, mas para deixar claro são só algumas pessoas da imprensa. Quem se sentiu ofendido, só peço desculpas. Mas é erguer a cabeça, continuar trabalhando e mostrar meu futebol novamente – disse, antes de completar,

– Estou me esforçando dentro e fora dos treinamentos. Quero ir para os treinos técnicos o mais rápido possível. O comprometimento com o grupo, a instituição, todos que confiaram no meu trabalho, é o que me motiva. A torcida pode ter total confiança que vou me esforçar o máximo dentro e fora de campo para chegar à forma física. Essa questão de quilos é irrelevante, o importante é estar em forma, bem e apto.

Jadson deverá perder sete partidas do Corinthians na temporada por conta de sua preparação especial, a começar pelo duelo contra a Caldense, pela Copa do Brasil, na última quarta-feira. Entre estes compromissos, clássicos contra Santos e Palmeiras pelo Campeonato Paulista.

ألميدا: أداء فاركو أمام الزمالك اعتمد على شيء واحد

أكد نونو ألميدا المدير الفني لنادي فاركو، أنه سعيد بمواجهة جيسوالدو فيريرا مدرب الزمالك، وذلك خلال المباراة التي جمعت الفريقين أمس الثلاثاء في الدوري.

وتواجه الزمالك مع فاركو في إطار مواجهات الجولة 14 من عمر منافسات الدوري المصري الممتاز، وانتهت بالتعادل السلبي.

وقال ألميدا خلال تصريحات عبر قناة “أون تايم سبورتس1”: “سعيد بمواجهة أمام فيريرا، الأداء كان معتمدًا على تضييق المساحات على الزمالك، نحن واجهنا فريق كبير ومعه مدرب تاريخي”.

وأضاف: “نحن أصدقاء وكان لقاءً لطيفًا عقب المؤتمر، حققنا بطولات سويًا وكانت بيننا لحظات ساحرة”.

Southampton handed Armstrong boost

Southampton’s hopes of signing Blackburn Rovers striker Adam Armstrong this summer have been given a huge boost after the Championship side reportedly lowered their asking price.

According to The Daily Mail, Tony Mowbray’s side will demand just £8m for the former Newcastle United man, with Southampton and Norwich City currently leading the race to sign him.

Previous reports have suggested that he could cost as much as £15m this summer but with the 24-year-old’s contract at Ewood Park set to expire at the end of next season, it seems as if the Lancashire side are keen to cash in rather than potentially losing him for nothing next summer.

The English striker enjoyed a superb campaign in the Championship last season, contributing 28 goals and five assists in 40 appearances in the second tier, averaging an excellent 7.15 rating from WhoScored for his performances.

Considering this was more than Che Adams and Danny Ings would manage combined in the Premier League last season, you could definitely argue that Ralph Hasenhuttl needs to add a player of his firepower up front next season if he wants his side to avoid another relegation battle.

[snack-amp-story url=”https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/read-the-latest-southampton-transfer-rumours-and-news” title=”Read the latest Southampton transfer rumours and news!”]

The Austrian suggested earlier this year that Southampton would target players under £10m this summer and now that Armstrong’s asking price has seemingly been reduced, there is no excuse for Martin Semmens not to bring him to St Mary’s.

Mowbray was full of praise for Armstrong last season, saying:

“He’s a boy really, but his explosive pace at the top end of the pitch allows you to play both ways, to not be overly concerned if you’re pinned back around the edge of your box because one pass releases pressure to someone like (Harvey) Elliott to play the pass that he can hit just leaving it in the space for the speed and dynamic movement of Armstrong – it’s a devastating effect for the team.”

This certainly marks him out as the sort of striker Hasenhuttl would favour in his 4-2-2-2 system at Southampton next season, so now that he is available at such a cut-price, there seems little reason why he couldn’t end up at St Mary’s this summer.

Pakistan could face India in ICC KnockOut semifinal

Pakistan and India are likely to renew their rivalry in the cricket field as they couldmeet in the semifinals of the ICC KnockOut tournament scheduled for Sri Lanka between Sept 12 and 30

Samiul Hasan21-Feb-2002Pakistan and India are likely to renew their rivalry in the cricket field as they couldmeet in the semifinals of the ICC KnockOut tournament scheduled for Sri Lanka between Sept 12 and 30.Pakistan last faced India in the league match of the 2000 Asia Cup in Dhaka where Moin Khan’s men emerged comfortable winners. Since then, the two teams haven’t clashed.India cancelled a scheduled tour to Pakistan in 2001, and pulled out from last April’s Sharjah Cup because Pakistan was one of the participating teams. However, the teams of the two traditional rivals locked horns in the ICC Youth World Cup in New Zealand earlier this month where Pakistan won by two wickets but failed to qualify for the final. India lost in the semi-finals.According to the new format of the 12-team ICC KnockOut tournament, Pakistan has been placed in Pool B along with 1996 World Cup winners Sri Lanka and Holland, the ICC Trophy champions.India, on the contrary, is in Pool C alongside England and Zimbabwe. The winners of the two pools will appear in first semi-final scheduled for Sept 25. There is a battle within Pool C after England came back from 3-1 down to draw the six-match one-day series with India 3-3.World champions Australia and South Africa are drawn to meet in the second semifinal after both were put in different pools. South Africa, host nation for next year’s World Cup, is placed along with two-time world champions West Indies and Kenya, whereas Australia is pooled with reigning champions New Zealand and Bangladesh.The second semi-final is scheduled for Sept 27.Interestingly, Pakistan also faced Sri Lanka in the 2000 competition while India faced England in the opener. Pakistan lost in the semi-finals to eventual champions New Zealand while India reached the final.According to sources in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), the format and schedule would be formally approved in the Cape Town executive board scheduled for March 15 and 16.Sri Lanka are confirmed hosts while the format is also set. It only needs the formal approval of the ICC executive board.The competition was initially awarded to India who conceded the event after New Delhi refused to give tax relaxations. India will now host either the 2004 or 2006 tournament. Sri Lanka was stand-bye nation along with Australia and Sharjah.”It is a good format because now the teams will play at least two league matches,” a PCB source said.In the previous two tournaments, seeded teams directly played in the quarterfinals. Pakistan managed to reach the semi-finals at Nairobi but in Dhaka in 1998, it was knocked out by the West Indies in the first match. “The format also suits us because more matches will mean more sponsors and television rights which will result in more profits from the tournament,” he said.It may be mentioned here that 50 per cent of the profits from the tournament go into the kitty of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC). The ACC received $6.5million from the Kenya tournament.A PCB spokesman said Pakistan had no problems playing India anywhere. “Our policy is straightforward in this issue. We are looking forward to playing them in this year’s ICC KnockOut tournament,” he said.The following are the pools:Pool A: South Africa, West Indies, Kenya.Pool B: Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Holland.Pool C: India, Zimbabwe, England.Pool D: Australia, New Zealand, Bangladesh.The following is the draw of the tournament:Sept 12: South Africa v West Indies.Sept 13: Pakistan v Sri Lanka.Sept 14: India v Zimbabwe.Sept 15: Australia v New Zealand.Sept 16: West Indies v Kenya.Sept 17: Sri Lanka v Holland.Sept 18: England v Zimbabwe.Sept 19: Australia v Bangladesh.Sept 20: South Africa v Kenya.Sept 21: Pakistan v Holland.Sept 22: New Zealand v Bangladesh.Sept 23: England v India.Sept 24: Rest day.Sept 25: First semifinal (winner pool B v winner Pool C).Sept 26: Reserve Day.Sept 27: Second semifinal (winner pool A v winner pool D).Sept 28: Reserve Day.Sept 29: Final.Sept 30: Reserve Day.

BCCSL confirms appointment of temporary team manager for Sharjah and England

The BCCSL wishes to set the record straight with regard to the advertisement which was published on the 16th of December 2001, calling for applications for the post of Manager Sri Lanka Cricket Team

BCCSL20-Mar-2002The BCCSL wishes to set the record straight with regard to the advertisement which was published on the 16th of December 2001, calling for applications for the post of Manager Sri Lanka Cricket Team.The Interim Committee of the BCCSL at a meeting on the 11th of February 2002, took a decision that no appointment would be made to this post, since a number of newspaper articles had appeared stating that there would be a change in administration at the BCCSL, and the members of the Interim Committee were of the view that it would not be appropriate for the Interim Committee to make such a long-term appointment under these circumstances.The Chief Executive of the BCCSL then wrote to each applicant on the 19th of February 2002, informing them of the decision.The Interim Committee further decided that a manager be appointed for only the Asian Test Championship Final, the Sharjah Champions’ Trophy, and the tour of England, as these three tours were scheduled to take place within a short time of each other.

Em ambiente conturbado no Santos, Ferraz incentiva novatos: 'Lute'

MatériaMais Notícias

Victor Ferraz desabafou em suas redes sociais na noite do último domingo, após ter acertado lindo cruzamento para Vitor Bueno, que marcou contra o Red Bull, no Pacaembu. O lateral-direito fez um pedido aos jogadores que estão iniciando as atividades: sonhe, acredite, lute e trabalhe muito.

O jogador, que sofreu crítica de parte da torcida nos últimos jogos, lembrou da época em que teve que tolerar julgamentos no início de sua carreira. Segundo ele, ouviu que estava velho, que não tinha condições físicas, nem altura para iniciar.

Após a publicação, Lucas Lima fez questão de dar apoio ao colega de elenco:

– Capitão, respeito você e sua história. Esse ano é nosso! – escreveu o meia.

Ferraz é um dos atletas que pedem à comissão técnica para treinar separadamente no final dos treinos realizados no CT Rei Pelé.

Update emerges on Alen Halilovic

Birmingham City have been dealt a blow in their bid to keep Alen Halilovic at St. Andrew’s this summer.

What’s the talk?

That’s according to a report by Croatian outlet NL, who claim that the 25-year-old attacking midfielder has received an offer from 1.HNL side HNK Hajduk Split, with whom the Blues player is reported to have been training with this week.

This news comes following a claim made by We Are Birmingham that revealed, despite Lee Bowyer’s side offering the midfielder a new deal at the club this summer, the two parties have so far failed to reach an agreement on terms.

Bowyer will be livid

Having joined Birmingham on a free transfer back in November last year, Halilovic went on to have something of a mixed campaign for the club, as, despite not scoring a great number of goals nor being overly productive in terms of assists, the Croatia international appeared to win the hearts of many Blues fans with his trickery and skill in the middle of the park.

Indeed, over his 17 Championship appearances last season, Halilovic scored just one goal, provided no assists and created no big chances for his teammates, with these returns seeing the 25-year-old earn a rather disappointing seasonal SofaScore match rating of 6.65 – ranking him as Bowyer’s 19th-best performer in the second tier of English football.

Having said that, the single goal that the midfielder did bag was an exquisite 25-yard curling winner against Queens Park Rangers, highlighting the undoubted talent the Croat possesses.

However, with a new deal at St. Andrew’s now appearing an unlikely outcome, something that will certainly not have been helped by Hajduk’s reported offer, it seems that, despite the fans’ adoration and Bowyer’s faith in the midfielder, the former Barcelona man – dubbed a “phenomenal” talent by Miroslav Bicanic – will be moving on to pastures new once again this summer, an outcome that is sure to leave the 44-year-old Birmingham manager livid.

Jogo entre Paraná e Bahia é suspenso e ainda não tem nova data

MatériaMais Notícias

O jogo entre Paraná e Bahia, que seria realizado às 16h30 deste sábado, foi adiado pela CBF. A partida da segunda fase da Copa do Brasil foi inicialmente remarcada para domingo, mas a Polícia Militar do Paraná afirmou não ser possível fazer a segurança do jogo, já que outros eventos estarão sendo realizados na cidade. A nova data da partida ainda não foi divulgada.

A pedido do Bahia, a CBF determinou o adiamento. O time foi divido em duas partes e apenas oito jogadores conseguiram chegar a tempo. A delegação, que deveria deixar o aeroporto de Guarulhos (SP) na noite de sexta-feira, teve voo atrasado devido ao mau tempo. O elenco, que deveria estar em Curitiba às 18, só chegou 11h deste sábado.

Quem não gostou nada da mudança foi o Paraná. O diretor de futebol do clube, Rodrigo Pastana, afirmou em entrevista à Tribuna do Paraná, que o erro foi do Bahia e a partida deveria acontecer. Mas a decisão da CBF já tinha sido dada.

– Eles estavam com apenas oito atletas em Guarulhos. Os outros estão no hotel. Eles fizeram a logística errada. A chance de não acontecer o jogo neste sábado é zero.
