WA allrounder Aaron Hardie ruled out of Marsh Cup final against NSW

The allrounder has not recovered from the calf tightness he picked up in the last Sheffield Shield match

Alex Malcolm23-Feb-2024Western Australia have suffered a blow to their hopes of a hat-trick of 50-over domestic titles with Australia allrounder Aaron Hardie has been ruled out of the Marsh Cup final against New South Wales due to his calf injury.Hardie suffered calf tightness during WA’s last Sheffield Shield match against Tasmania. He only bowled four overs in the second innings of the game and did not field for the entirety of day three. Scans did clear him of any major damage but he was withdrawn from Australia’s T20I tour of New Zealand as he was set to fly in on Monday to replace the injured Marcus Stoinis.Related

WA were hopeful Hardie might be fit to play in Sunday’s final at Cricket Central in Sydney but he has not been passed fit to travel.WA do welcome back four players into their 13-man squad with Jason Behrendorff returning from Australia duty after missing their Marsh Cup win over Tasmania. Joel Paris has been included having not played a single Marsh Cup game all season and could play alongside Behrendorff as a dual left-arm new ball pairing. Paris has played just six Marsh Cup games in the last five seasons with WA preferring to rest him for Sheffield Shield games given they have Behrendorff and Andrew Tye contracted as white-ball specialists.WA have also named Australia Under-19 World Cup final player of the match Mahli Beardman in the squad for the final. Beardman made his Marsh Cup debut against New South Wales back in November but has not played since. Spin bowling allrounder Cooper Connolly also returns to the squad having not played since the BBL due to a quad strain.WA is playing in their fifth consecutive Marsh Cup final and is aiming to become the first side to win a hat-trick of titles since NSW did it between 2001-2003. WA are also gunning for their fifth title in seven years.NSW have picked a settled squad having won their last four matches in a row including beating WA twice.New South Wales squad: Jackson Bird, Joel Davies, Ollie Davies, Ben Dwarshuis, Jack Edwards, Matthew Gilkes, Chris Green, Liam Hatcher, Moises Henriques (capt), Daniel Hughes, Blake Macdonald, Jack Nisbet, William Salzmann, Tanveer SanghaWestern Australia squad: Sam Whiteman (capt), Ashton Agar, Cameron Bancroft, Mahli Beardman, Jason Behrendorff, Hilton Cartwright, Cooper Connolly, Cameron Gannon, Nick Hobson, Joel Paris, Josh Philippe, D’Arcy Short, Andrew Tye

Chelsea star was once ahead of Reece James, then Boehly let him go for £0

da roleta: As England kicked off their World Cup qualifying campaign with victory over Albania on Friday evening, it was a muted night for those of a Chelsea persuasion, even with former Blues boss Thomas Tuchel now at the helm for the Three Lions.

da blaze casino: With Cole Palmer sidelined with injury, the only two Chelsea representatives in Tuchel’s matchday squad were Levi Colwill and Reece James, albeit with neither man earning a place in the starting lineup at Wembley.

As it proved, Colwill was an unused substitute for the 2-0 triumph, while James was introduced in stoppage time in place of goalscorer, Myles Lewis-Skelly, with the German coach favouring the veteran Kyle Walker at right-back.

It is still early days, however, with James no doubt hoping to cement a starting berth for himself moving forward, having begun to feature more regularly at club level following an injury-hit last few years at Stamford Bridge.

Reece James

The 25-year-old – who has made just 14 appearances at club level this season – will be aiming to get back to the levels that he showcased under Tuchel’s watch, having enjoyed an initially meteoric rise from academy prospect to first-team sensation.

Reece James' Chelsea record under Tuchel

Captain of the side that claimed FA Youth Cup glory in 2017/18, having been named Academy Player of the Year that season to boot, the versatile full-back was made to wait until September 2019 to make his Blues debut, after spending the previous campaign on loan at Wigan Athletic.

Under the tutelage of Frank Lampard, the then-youngster would amass 37 first-team appearances in total in 2019/20, alongside the likes of Tammy Abraham and Mason Mount, as the west London side secured Champions League qualification.

That bright start was followed by a real rise amid Tuchel’s appointment in January 2021, with James playing a central role in the side that claimed European glory just a few months later.

Operating in a right wing-back berth, the Englishman flourished in an attacking sense under the former Borussia Dortmund boss, having chalked up seven goals and 12 assists in 74 games during Tuchel’s tenure.

It is no surprise then that even amid his recent injury woes, he has still been recognised as being “as good as any right-back in the world” when at his best, according to pundit Eni Aluko, with the Chelsea skipper still having ample time to return to such lofty heights.

Whatever the case, James still represents a real academy success story of the modern era at the Bridge, having seemingly overtaken one of his positional rivals to soar to the top.

The Chelsea star who was once ahead of Reece James

Mount, Abraham, Colwill, Conor Callagher, Dominic Solanke, Marc Guehi, Fikayo Tomori, Ruben Loftus-Cheek. The list goes on.

While not all have made their mark at first-team level for the Blues, the west London side have certainly developed a reputation for producing some of the best young talent about – and deservedly so.

For every Reece James, however, there are those who don’t quite push on in a similar vain, with that perhaps true of another once-promising Cobham gem, in the form of Dujon Sterling.

LW – Mason Mount

The current Rangers star – who, like James, is now 25 – was actually promoted into the first-team ranks a long time prior to his former colleague, having been handed a first-team debut by Antonio Conte as early as 2017.

The 6 foot 1 starlet was seemingly deemed a viable option as a wing-back in Conte’s 3-4-3 set-up, with reports also suggesting that he was ‘rated as highly as James’ in the academy system at one stage. Indeed, praise flooded in from academy coach Adi Viveash at the time:

Unfortunately for Sterling, while the current Chelsea captain has gone on to make 172 appearances for the club, the Islington-born defender was unable to build on the two chances he was handed in that 2017/18 campaign.

The former England youth international subsequently spent the next four seasons out on loan at a variety of EFL clubs, including Wigan, before the Todd Boehly regime allowed him to depart on a free transfer, following the expiry of his contract in 2023.

Sterling has since made 67 appearances in Glasgow, while registering four goal involvements, albeit with few of a Chelsea persuasion – including Boehly and co – likely to regret letting him depart on the cheap.

Rangers midfielder Dujon Sterling.

Having at one stage been viewed as ‘one of the best talents’ to come from Cobham, as per journalist Nizaar Kinsella, the £3m-rated ace was ultimately usurped by James in that right-back pecking order.

'Nothing that I could've ever imagined' – Starc reacts to becoming the costliest IPL auction buy

Left-arm quick looks forward to returning to the IPL, “swinging the new ball, reversing the old, and trying to smack those wickets”

Nagraj Gollapudi19-Dec-2023Mitchell Starc was “jittery” on Tuesday evening as he followed the IPL 2024 auction at his home in Sydney. It had already been a busy day for Starc: he had mowed the lawn, walked the dogs, done his shopping rounds and made himself dinner.Starc waited anxiously for his name to come up for bidding in the fourth set comprising capped fast bowlers. His Australia captain and friend Pat Cummins had already gone to Sunrisers Hyderabad for INR 20.5 crore (US$2.569 mn approx.), surpassing the record set by England allrounder Sam Curran at the 2023 auction to become the IPL’s most expensive player ever.Related

  • The constant and universal appeal of Mitchell Starc

  • Warner set to miss West Indies white-ball matches for ILT20

  • Meet Robin Minz, the quiet boy who lets his bat do the talking

  • Johnson's IPL millionaire price tag caps extraordinary rise

  • 'It will help us set up the family in many ways' – Mitchell after bagging 14 crore IPL deal

That distinction, several pundits and franchises heads had believed in the lead-up to the auction, would belong to Starc. Nearly two-and-a-half hours into the auction in Dubai, player Number 28’s name came up for bidding: Starc.Starc and everyone else following the auction wouldn’t believe what was about to transpire. Mumbai Indians owner Akash Ambani and his counterpart at Delhi Capitals, Kiran Gandhe, started the bidding. At the INR 9.4 crore mark, Gandhe pulled out. Enter Kolkata Knight Riders at the INR 9.8 crore mark. The Knight Riders had been favorites to bid for Starc on the eve of the auction. After all, they had signed him for INR 9.4 crore at the 2018 auction, but Starc had to pull out due to injury.After Mumbai, too, dropped out, Gujarat Titans locked into a bidding contest with Knight Riders. Several tense minutes followed as both franchises raised their bidding towards Cummins’ price tag. The auction room let out a sigh of excitement when Starc surpassed Cummins. Finally, after nearly 17 minutes of bidding, Knight Riders had Starc at INR 24.75 crore. The most expensive player tag had moved from Cummins to Starc in less than two hours.Starc was as gobsmacked as his wife Alyssa Healy, who was relaying updates from Mumbai where she is part of the Australia women’s tour of India, which starts with a one-off Test this week. In a chat with , Starc said he had been “intrigued” about how he would fare, and wasn’t prepared to end up making history.”I’m not sure any words would do it justice, really,” Starc said with a chuckle, asked to recount his reaction to Knight Riders’ winning bid. “Alyssa was over there with the Australian team at the minute, so her coverage was slightly ahead of mine here in Australia. So she sort of saw the numbers before I did, so I was getting the updates through her. But, yeah, a fair bit of shock, and certainly excitement with how it was all unfolding. But nothing that I could’ve ever imagined. Thoroughly thrilled to be joining KKR.”Starc has played only two seasons of the IPL – in 2014 and 2015, at Royal Challengers Bangalore, who had picked him up at INR 5 crore. He then decided to manage his workload for a few years before deciding to enter the auction ahead of the 2018 season. Even then the Knight Riders had bet big money on Starc who they believe has all the skills to be a serial match-winner. These included his ability to bowl in the 140-150 kph range while generating conventional and reverse swing, flooring batters and breaking stumps with toe-crushing yorkers, mix things up with a wicked slower ball, all this with the added threat of his left-arm angle, as well as provide depth to their batting with his lower-order hitting.Unfortunately, Starc hurt his tibia, ruling him out of the 2018 season. But six seasons later, Starc is happy to play in Knight Riders’ colours. “Firstly, it’s exciting to be back involved,” he said. “Secondly, it’s more of a bit of a shock and a surprise, I guess.”The Knight Riders had come to the auction with a remaining purse of 32.7 crore with the most slots to fill of any team – 12 including four overseas players. As soon as the auction began, they got to work by raising their paddle for West Indies allrounder Rovman Powell, who ended up going to Rajasthan Royals. The Knight Riders would eventually walk out with 10 new signings.0:34

Healy: IPL record buy a justification for Starc’s choices

Incredibly, the nine others apart from Starc were all signed at their base price. As Knight Riders CEO Venky Mysore said after acquiring Starc, you can “slice” the purse in different ways.But how do you make sense of a team spending INR 24.75 crore, or 75.69 % of the purse they started the auction with, on a single player? Starc was laughing himself. “They are amazing numbers, aren’t they?” He understands the pressure and expectatins that will come with the price tag as soon as the season begins. But he has qualities not many possess: vast experience, and the experience of winning World Cups in high-pressure situations. “I’m 33 now, so I’ve had to deal with a few ups and downs and pressures of certain games,” he said. “I would like to think that I can keep that in check, but that always comes with the territory when some of those numbers get added to the anticipation of an upcoming season as well.”It’s been a long time since I played in IPL in 2014 and ’15 and have obviously played a fair bit of cricket since then. A lot of it for Australia in different formats. There’s been a lot of white-ball cricket there [in India] across a few World Cup campaigns, and so that experience is there and a little bit of leadership if you like, in terms of the experience side of things in white-ball cricket that hopefully I can bring to bring to KKR as well and play my part there. And being able to bowl at different stages I think is something that’s held firm throughout.”While he sat out of the IPL, Starc never felt uneasy. His had chalked out his priorities, and had been focused on performing for Australia. He played a key role in a historic 2023, in which Australia won the World Test Championship final, retained the Ashes, and then overcame a dominant India in the final of the World Cup in front of a 90,000-plus crowd in Ahmedabad.Starc now believes he is ready for the IPL .”I’ve probably prioritised international cricket firstly for a long time whilst having a bit of a taste of IPL and Big Bash in Australia.” he said. “I’ve always held firm that I’ve wanted to play my best cricket for Australia and make myself available for Australia where I can. At the same time, the temptation to go back to IPL and how exciting it is to be involved in such a great tournament, big names, big players, big stages – it’s too hard to pass up. There’s a place to play all of it. it’s just being mindful and putting the work ethic in to be able to do all of it.”The Eden Gardens also holds good memories for Starc. On November 16, he took a three-for and then batted resolutely with Cummins in a tense chase of 213 against South Africa in the World Cup semi-finals. “I’m very much looking forward to playing as the home team and experiencing that home crowd [at Eden Gardens],” he said. “Some new colors to pull on and a new challenge to look forward to.”What can the passionate Knight Riders fan expect then from Starc? “Hopefully, more of the success that I’ve had over some time – swinging the new ball, reversing the old, and trying to smack those wickets.”As for the present, Starc is looking forward to meeting Cummins ahead of training on Wednesday as they get ready to join the rest of the Australia squad in Melbourne for the Boxing Day Test against Pakistan. “It could be an interesting conversation between the bowling group tomorrow and the gym,” he said, with a laugh.While he and Healy will spend the rest of 2023 indulging in a “Christmas of cricket” in different continents, Starc is happy to share the joy he and Cummins have experienced today with rest of the Australia squad. “The team chat has been going nuts,” he said. “The are all saying it’s our shout, so we’ll just go about our business and get ready for the next Test match. But a few of our Australian team-mates might be waiting for us to treat them.”

SLC wants answers for Sri Lanka's "shocking defeats" in the World Cup

Board issues statement a day after the team’s 302-run defeat against India in Mumbai

Sri Lanka’s 302-run defeat to India prompted SLC to spring into action•ICC/Getty Images

Sri Lanka Cricket has called for “an urgent and comprehensive explanation from the entire coaching staff and selectors” following the team’s 302-run defeat in their World Cup match against India in Mumbai.Sri Lanka lost five of their first seven games to South Africa, Australia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and India, and have beaten only Netherlands and England. Their last two matches are against Bangladesh and New Zealand, and Sri Lanka need an improvement in performance if they are to finish in the top eight in the World Cup, to ensure qualification for the 2025 Champions Trophy.”The recent overall performance and shocking defeats have raised significant questions about the team’s preparation, strategies and performance,” SLC said in a statement. “SLC management never interfered with the hired professional staff to carry out their duties and responsibilities as per the norms and regulations. However, SLC firmly believes in accountability, transparency and the importance of addressing subject concerns promptly.”The release lists four points which the coaching staff and selectors will be expected to address, namely: “Strategy and preparation: Providing insights into the team’s strategy, preparation and tactical decisions during the matches. Team selection: Justifying player selections for each match and explaining any changes made to the playing XI. Player performance: Assessing individual and team performance, highlighting strengths and weaknesses, and addressing any injuries or fitness concerns. Post-match analysis: Sharing post-match analyses conducted by the coaching team and explaining key takeaways.”While their on-field performances have been disappointing, Sri Lanka have also struggled with injuries throughout their World Cup campaign, with their captain Dasun Shanaka, and fast bowlers Matheesha Pathirana and Lahiru Kumara ruled out at various stages. They were forced to bring in Chamika Karunaratne, Angelo Mathews and Dushmantha Chameera as replacements, while Kusal Mendis stepped in as captain. They had also lost key legspinner Wanindu Hasaranga to injury before the tournament began.There have, however, been some positives: left-arm quick Dilshan Madushanka’s five-wicket haul against India took him to the top of the wicket charts in this World Cup, Sadeera Samarawickrama has emerged as Sri Lanka’s top-scorer, and Pathum Nissanka has improved as an opener.Sri Lanka’s next game is against Bangladesh in Delhi on November 6, and their final league game is against New Zealand in Bengaluru on November 9.

Com a 12 dos ídolos Falcão e Calleri, Pedrinho é apresentado oficialmente no São Paulo

MatériaMais Notícias

da bet nacional: Pedrinho foi, enfim, apresentado no São Paulo. Primeiro reforço anunciado por um clube grande da capital paulista, ainda em novembro, o meia-atacante de 23 anos passou pela cerimônia habitual de vestir a nova camisa. E tratou logo de explicar o motivo pelo qual ostentará o número 12 às costas: a idolatria por Falcão e Calleri.

– Na primeira passagem do Calleri ele usou a 12 e teve muito sucesso. Falcão também, quando deu seus primeiros passos no São Paulo, usou a 12. Esses foram uns dos motivos para eu escolher a camisa 12. Espero ter sucesso com ela.

+ Gabriel Jesus, Antony, Endrick… Relembre os craques das últimas 10 edições da Copinha

De fato, o maior jogador de futsal de todos os tempos marcou a carreira pelo uso do número nas quadras. Repetiu a prática na rápida passagem que teve no campo, pelo Tricolor, em 2005. Ficou cinco meses, jogou apenas seis partidas, mas foi o suficiente para ser considerado pelo clube campeão paulista e da Copa Libertadores.

Desde então, a camisa 12 passou a ser usada regularmente no Morumbi por jogadores de linha (é habitualmente a vestimenta do goleiro reserva no Brasil).

E dentre tantos nomes que a vestem no São Paulo desde 2005, foi justamente o número escolhido na época para ser usada por Calleri, o atual 9, na temporada 2016, em sua primeira passagem, quando anotou 16 gols em 31 partidas disputadas.

No ano passado, o número chegou a ser usado pelo meia Alisson, que a trocou pela 7 no decorrer da temporada.

CONHEÇA PEDRINHO

Indicação do técnico Rogério Ceni, Pedrinho é nascido em São Paulo (SP) e chega ao Tricolor por empréstimo de um ano junto ao Lokomotiv Moscou, da Rússia, com opção de compra definida.

O jogador de 23 anos, revelado pelo Audax, de Osasco (SP), rodou por cinco clubes desde que foi promovido ao profissional, dentre eles Athletico-PR, Bragantino e América-MG, onde se destacou no último Campeonato Brasileiro e acabou vendido ao futebol russo.

No Lokomotiv, foram apenas nove jogos disputados, mas com quatro gols anotados e uma assistência.

Palmeiras reafirma foco na base com reapresentação 'reforçada' por jovens

MatériaMais Notícias

da aposte e ganhe: Estamos no dia 5 de janeiro de 2023 e o Palmeiras ainda não apresentou reforços para esta temporada. Por enquanto, as contratações parecem distantes de aparecer na Academia de Futebol. O que se vê no clube é a reafirmação no foco em jogadores da base. O objetivo fica claro quando observamos os atletas que se reapresentaram na última segunda-feira. Dos 30 que estão treinando, quatro foram recém-promovidos do sub-20 e serão os reforços do elenco para esta pré-temporada.

Boa parte da torcida alviverde tem cobrado a chegada de novos jogadores para o grupo de Abel Ferreira, especialmente quanto a um substituto para Gustavo Scarpa, principal destaque do time na campanha do Brasileirão 2022, que deixou o clube rumo ao Nottingham Forest-ING. Até aqui, porém, não há uma sinalização de que a diretoria do Verdão esteja em negociação com algum reforço.

da jogodeouro: Mas ninguém pode dizer que isso não foi avisado no ano passado. Em entrevistas, tanto o técnico Abel Ferreira quanto a presidente Leila Pereira deixaram claro que o elenco não precisaria de muitos reforços para 2023. Além disso, colocaram a base como a responsável por fornecer peças para o time principal por conta do trabalho que tem sido feito no últimos anos com títulos e joias.

-As pessoas, às vezes, sobretudo na internet, me perguntam por que temos que contratar. Não temos que contratar ninguém.E desde já digo: se contratarmos, serão dois ou três jogadores, não mais, somente e se contratarmos. Vamos valorizar a base. Nos criticam por não apostarmos na base, o que é mentira – disse Abel após vitória sobre o Avaí, em outubro de 2022.

-Vamos valorizar o que está sendo feito, vamos valorizar a Academia. Vamos fazer poucas mexidas, para não dizer nenhuma, porque valorizamos o trabalho que é feito no clube, não só pelo treinador, mas por todos. Esse é o futuro do clube – completou o treinador português.

Dos 30 jogadores que se apresentaram na Academia de Futebol na última segunda-feira, dez são formados na base do Palmeiras: Vinicius Silvestre (geração mais antiga das Crias), Danilo e Gabriel Menino, que já faziam parte do elenco há algumas temporadas, e Vanderlan, Endrick e Giovani, que foram promovidos para o time de cima ao longo de 2022. Além deles, Jhon Jhon, Garcia, Naves e Fabinho sobem ao profissional em 2023 de forma definitiva e também reforçam o grupo.

Esses nomes ainda podem ganhar a companhia de outras Crias da Academia que podem se destacar nos próximos meses. São os casos do goleiro Kaíque e do meia Luis Guilherme, que estão com a Seleção sub-20, além do meio-campista Pedro Lima e do atacante Estevão, que ainda tem 15 anos e disputam a Copa São Paulo deste ano como os principais jogadores da equipe.

Nesta quinta-feira, o Verdão enfrentará o Suzano, às 10h, na Academia de Futebol, no primeiro jogo-treino da pré-temporada. Também está programado um segundo turno de treinamentos às 17h. Outros jogos-treino estão agendados antes da estreia no Campeonato Paulista, marcada para o dia 14 de janeiro, às 20h30, contra o São Bento, no Allianz Parque.

تقارير: ألونسو نافس فليك وأرتيتا على تدريب عملاق أوروبي

وصل تشابي ألونسو لتدريب ريال مدريد الصيف الماضي، وعلى الرغم من ذلك فقد كشفت تقارير جديدة فإنه كان من الممكن أن يتخذ مساره التدريبي اتجاها مختلفا قبل عودته لملعب سانتياجو برنابيو كمدرب.

وبحسب الصحفي “فابريس هاوكينز” فإن تشابي ألونسو مدرب ريال مدريد كان من بين الأسماء المرشحة لتدريب باريس سان جيرمان في عام 2023 عندما كان يحقق نجاحاته مع بايرليفركوزن.

وأضاف أن باريس سان جيرمان وصناع القرار في النادي كانوا يبحثون ويدرسون أسماء العديد من المدربين وملفاتهم الشخصية.

وتحدث هاوكينز عن ارتباط عدة أسماء بتدريب باريس سان جيرمان في عام 2023: “وضع المدير الرياضي لويس كامبوس قائمة طويلة جداً، كان أرتيتا أحد المرشحين الأوفر حظاً وكان أيضاً هناك هانز فليك ولويس إنريكي وتشابي ألونسو”.

وأكد الصحفي الفرنسي أيضاً أن باريس سان جيرمان تحرك للعديد من الأسماء المرشحة الأخرى: “كان هناك محادثات مع ناجلسمان، وأرتيتا، وتشابي ألونسو، أراد ألونسو الاستمرار في ليفركوزن وكان يحلم بتدريب ريال مدريد بينما أراد أرتيتا البقاء مع آرسنال”.

وحول قرار باريس سان جيرمان بتفضيل تعيين لويس إنريكي مدرباً جديداً للفريق، اختتم أيضاً: “ما جذب اختيار لويس إنريكي هو شخصيته، إنه شخص يعبر عن رأيه بصراحة، ولا يخشى اتخاذ قرارات صعبة، هناك أيضاً الجانب الرياضي وقصة لويس إنريكي التي أثرت في ناصر الخليفي ولكل هذه الأسباب كان الإسباني هو المدرب المختار”.

Are Alzarri Joseph's 6 for 12 the best figures in all T20s?

Also, what’s the record for the highest IPL total without a half-century?

Steven Lynch09-Apr-2019In a recent IPL match KKR scored 206, with no batsman reaching 50. Was this a record? asked Brett Renike from Australia
That’s a good spot, because Kolkata Knight Riders’ 206 for 5 against Royal Challengers Bangalore in Bengaluru last week was indeed a record IPL total without an individual half-century – the highest individual contribution was Andre Russell’s rapid unbeaten 48. The previous record – and the only other such score over 200 – was Mumbai Indians’ 202 for 7 against the Super Kings in Chennai, in one of the earliest matches in the very first IPL, in April 2008.Somerset made 226 for 5 in vain against Kent in a floodlit Vitality Blast match in Canterbury last August. And the international record is Australia’s 221 for 5 against England in Sydney in 2006-07, when the highest individual score was Adam Gilchrist’s 48.In one of last week’s ODIs, the first four Australians in the order all reached 50. Was this a record? asked Tom McGuirk from Canada
The match you’re talking about was the one in Dubai on March 31, which Australia won to complete a 5-0 whitewash of Pakistan. Usman Khawaja made 98, Aaron Finch 53, Shaun Marsh 61 and Glenn Maxwell 70.This was actually the 16th time the top four in the order had all reached 50 in the same ODI. Australia had done it twice before – against South Africa in Johannesburg in 2005-06 (Adam Gilchrist 55, Simon Katich 79, Ricky Ponting 164, Mike Hussey 81), and against India in Jaipur in 2013-14 (Finch 50, Phillip Hughes 83, Shane Watson 59, George Bailey 92 not out). Remarkably, Australia lost both those games!In that Jaipur game, Maxwell also added 53 from No. 5 – it’s the only occasion the top five in the order all made half-centuries in the same ODI. The only other instance of five was achieved by Pakistan against Zimbabwe in Karachi in 2007-08: numbers 2-6 all reached 50, but at the top of the order Salman Butt was out for 4.I realised that Faf du Plessis had a batting average of 293 early in his Test career. Was this a record, at least for South Africa? asked Dale Kriege from South Africa
South Africa’s Faf du Plessis raised his batting average to 293.00 during his second Test, in Australia in 2012-13. He followed 78 and 110 not out on debut in Adelaide with 78 not out and 27 in Perth – so was in sight of an average of 300 when he was out on the second innings.That’s the eight-highest Test batting average anyone has ever had – but there is another South African who did better. Jacques Rudolph started with 222 not out (against Bangladesh in Chittagong in 2002-03), and added 71 in the following Test. Just before he was dismissed for 10 in his third – against England at Edgbaston in 2003 – he had a Test average of 303.The highest Test batting average ever recorded was by the West Indian Lawrence Rowe. After making 214 and 100 not out on debut, against New Zealand in Kingston in 1971-72, he had taken his average to 336 immediately before being dismissed for 22 in the next match, in Port-of-Spain. Rowe came down to earth a little after that, with innings of 1 and 0!The others who boasted higher averages than du Plessis were the England trio of David Lloyd (308.00), Reginald “Tip” Foster (306) and Ian Bell (303), India’s Rohit Sharma (302), and the West Indian Frank Worrell (294). New Zealand’s Jimmy Neesham comes next with 277.Tom Latham and Kane Williamson have made more than 700 runs in their last ten innings•Getty ImagesI know Alzarri Joseph’s 6 for 12 was an IPL record, but was it the best in all Twenty20 cricket? asked Jai Manohar Prakash from India
Alzarri Joseph’s 6 for 12 for Mumbai Indians against Sunrisers in Hyderabad the other day – on his IPL debut – broke the competition record set in 2008 by Sohail Tanvir, who took 6 for 14 for Rajasthan Royals against Chennai Super Kings in Jaipur in 2008, the first IPL season.The best figures in all senior T20 cricket are 6 for 5, by the Malaysian-born Somerset slow left-armer Arul Suppiah, against Glamorgan in Cardiff in 2011. In the other big competitions, Shakib Al Hasan claimed 6 for 6 in the CPL, for Barbados Tridents against Trinidad & Tobago Red Steel in Bridgetown in August 2013, while Lasith Malinga took 6 for 7 in the Big Bash, for Melbourne Stars against Perth Scorchers in Perth in December 2012. The international record is 6 for 8, by another Sri Lankan, Ajantha Mendis, against Zimbabwe in the World Twenty20 in Hambantota in September 2012.Graeme Pollock scored 677 runs in his last ten Test innings. Is this the record? asked Jeremy Bradbury from England
My first thought was that Graeme Pollock’s aggregate – which included a murderous 274 against Australia in Durban in 1969-70 – would be a record for anyone’s last ten Test innings. But, as I’ve found out often, first thoughts can be dangerous!In fact there are three batsmen who collected more in their last ten innings. Graham Yallop made 693, while a rather more celebrated Australian, Charlie Macartney, managed 753. But top of the list is the West Indian Seymour Nurse, whose 766 runs included 258 in his very last innings, against New Zealand in Christchurch in 1968-69.Of current batsmen, the New Zealanders Kane Williamson and Tom Latham have made 738 and 701 runs respectively in their last ten innings, but those figures will presumably change.And there’s an update to last week’s question about batsmen who made no scores in the nineties in Tests, from Anne Monaghan
“You said that Michael Vaughan was next after Don Bradman for making the most Test centuries without a score in the nineties. But Greg Chappell scored 24 centuries and, although he did make 98 against England in Sydney in 1979-80, he was not out in that innings, so was never dismissed in the nineties.”Use our feedback form or the Ask Steven Facebook page to ask your stats and trivia questions

COMO FOI O HISTÓRICO GOL?

Pela 35ª rodada da competição, o Alvinegro Praiano precisava de uma vitória para respirar um pouco mais aliviado nas últimas rodadas. O herói em questão do episódio nem começou entre os titulares e só foi entrar na segunda etapa.

Longe de ser queridinho da torcida santista, Quiñonez entrou no jogo com a missão de fazer algo para mudar a história da partida e, aos 24 minutos do segundo tempo, conseguiu.

Após levar a bola até a entrada da área adversária, o jogador arrematou de forma totalmente torta. O ‘chute vesgo’ do equatoriano nem sequer sairia pela linha de fundo. Contudo, de forma totalmente bizarra, a bola acerta Gustavo Nery, jogador do Internacional que havia sido revelado na base do Peixe, engana o goleiro e alcança o fundo da rede.

O 1 a 0 ficou preso no placar até o apito final e rendeu os três pontos para o clube. Depois dessa partida, o Santos ainda conquistou dois empates importantes e se salvou da queda para a Série B do Brasileirão por apenas um ponto. Contudo, os adeptos do alvinegro possuem um lugar especial para a última vitória na competição, além, é claro, do gol bizarro.

O equatoriano Michael Jackson Quiñonez fez apenas dois gols durante toda passagem pelo Santos, mas foi o suficiente para se tornar inesquecível para o torcedor do Peixe.
