Cheap Air Max 97 All Red China .The outfielder hit the most damaging of New Yorks four homers, a two-run shot in the seventh inning, as the Mets rallied for their 13th straight victory over the Cincinnati Reds, 5-3 on Tuesday night.Sometimes its good, sometimes its bad, Cespedes said, through a translator.

Cespedes connected off Michael Lorenzen (2-1) for his 28th homer, putting the Mets ahead to stay.Every time you see Ces go to the plate, you think hes going to do something special for this ballclub, Reyes said. You think hes going to hit it out.Reyes isnt the only one thinking it.When youre a star, thats what you do, manager Terry Collins said. Thats why theyre in the middle of the lineup. They come through when you need them.The Reds thought they were in good shape until Asdrubal Cabrera singled with one out in the seventh.Then Cespedes does what he can do, manager Bryan Price said.Alejandro De Aza had a pinch-hit homer in the ninth.Rafael Montero made his second start of the season and gave up Adam Duvalls two-run homer in 4 1/3 innings.

FARGO, N.D. -- An ornate prize belt that has been awarded to some of Americas top professional athletes was stolen early Tuesday from the Roger Maris Museum inside a North Dakota shopping mall.Police say a burglar smashed a glass display case holding the Hickok Belt, which since 1950 has been awarded to athletes including Muhammed Ali, Mickey Mantle, Sandy Koufax and Ben Hogan. Maris, who grew up in Fargo, won the belt in 1961 after he hit a then-record 61 home runs for the New York Yankees.Police said the investigation was ongoing and determined later in the day that Maris 1960 American League Most Valuable Player plaque also was missing.Chris Heaton, property manager of West Acres Mall, which houses the Roger Maris Museum, said he was deeply disturbed by the incident.We feel violated this morning, and Im sure many others in the community do as well, that something was stolen from Fargos favorite son, Roger Maris, Heaton said.Heaton said the leather belt has a look similar to those awarded to boxing champions. The original belts included a 4 1/3-carat diamond and an 18-carat gold buckle. It is worth between $90,000 and $140,000, according to the website.We obviously consider everything in this case to be priceless, Heaton said.The incident happened about 2:50 a.m. Tuesday. Fargo Deputy Police Chief Joe Anderson said surveillance video shows a man dressed in dark clothing breaking out a glass entry door on the malls souutheast side and heading directly to the display, about 100 feet from the door. Cheap Air Max 97 Pink China. The thief headed outside immediately after nabbing the belt and jumped into the passenger side of a vehicle.Heaton said security personnel at the mall arrived at the display two minutes after an alarm went off.Obviously, the amount of time that they were in and out would lead us to believe they knew what they were looking for, Anderson said. As far as their motive and what they plan on doing with that item, that will have to be determined through the course of the investigation.The Hickok Belt was first awarded by the Rochester Press-Radio Club in 1950 to New York Yankees shortstop Phil Rizzuto. Arnold Palmer won it the year before Maris. The award was discontinued in 1976 and revived in 2013, when LeBron James was honored by sports writers.Heaton said most of the items in the 32-year-old Fargo museum, including the belt, are on loan from Maris family members, who return to Fargo every summer for a charity golf tournament started by their father. Maris died in 1985 and is buried in Fargo.True to Rogers wishes, the museum is visible, accessible and free, Heaton said. And it speaks to the great amount of respect the people have for Roger Maris that this is the first security incident weve had in 32 years.

LAUSANNE, Switzerland -- Nine more athletes, including six medal winners, were retroactively disqualified from the 2008 Beijing Olympics on Wednesday after failing retests of their doping samples. Joc Pederson Jersey .The International Olympic Committee announced the decisions in the latest sanctions imposed on athletes whose stored samples came back positive after being retested with improved methods.Four athletes were stripped of silver medals and two of bronze medals in weightlifting, wrestling and womens steeplechase. All six athletes come from former Soviet countries -- Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan -- and all tested positive for steroids.The IOC stores doping samples for 10 years to allow them to be reanalyzed when enhanced techniques become available. The IOC recorded a total of 98 positive cases in recent resting of samples from Beijing and the 2012 London Olympics.Stripped of silver medals Wednesday were freestyle wrestlers Soslan Tigiev of Uzbekistan (66-74 kilogram division) and Taimuraz Tigiyev of Kazakhstan (84-96 kg) and weightlifters Olha Korobka of Ukraine (75 kg) and Andrei Rybakov of Belarus (85 kg).Its the second time Tigiev has been stripped of an Olympic medal for doping. He lost his bronze medal from the 74 kg event at the London Games after failing a drug test.The IOC stripped Beijing bronze medals on Wednesday from Russian steeplechaser Ekaterina Volkova and Belarusian weightlifter Anastasia Novikova (53 kg).The IOC asked the international weightlifting, wrestling and track and field federations to modify the Olympic results and consider any further sanctions against the athletes. Decisions on reallocating the medals have not been finalized.The IOC said all six medalists tested positive for the steroid turinabol. Rybakov and Novikova also tested positive for stanozolol. Both substances are traditional steroids with a history dating back decades. The new IOC tests used a technique that could detect the use of those drugs going back weeks and months, rather than just days.Also disqualified Wednesday were Cubas Wilfredo Martinez, who finished fifth in the mens long jump; Nigerian-born Spaniard Josephine Onyia, who was eliminated in the semifinals of the womens 100-meter hurdles; and weightlifter Sardar Hasanov of Azerbaijan, who competed but did not finish in the mens 62-kg division.The IOC said Hasanov tested positive for turinabol, Martinez for the diuretic and masking agent acetazolamide, and Onyia for the stimulant methylhexanamine.Last week, the IOC announced that Russian weightlifter Apti Aukhadov had been stripped of his silver medal from the London Olympics on Tuesday after testing positive for turinabol and drostanolone.

MILWAUKEE -- In command through six innings, Cincinnati Reds pitcher Anthony DeSclafani looked to nail down his first win since late August.Things quickly turned sour in the seventh for DeSclafani against the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night. He left after loading the bases with no outs. All three runners would eventually score in the inning as the Brewers rallied for a 5-4 victory.(DeSclafani) was so good, so efficient, very few mistakes in those first six innings, Cincinnati manager Bryan Price said. He was the right guy to be out there. It was a tough way to lose.An angry DeSclafani had little to say after the game.I guess it just got away from me. I just (was bad) there in that seventh inning, he said.Chris Carter homered, Ryan Braun delivered a late clutch hit and the Brewers turned their second triple play of the season.Carter hit his 38th home run of the season, a career high, leading off the second against DeSclafani (8-4).In the first inning, Jose Peraza singled under the glove of Milwaukee third baseman Jonathan Villar and Scott Schebler reached on an error by Villar. With the runners in motion, Joey Votto hit a shot down the first base line off Zach Davies that Carter snagged, taking away an extra base hit. Carter stepped on first and then lobbed a throw to shortstop Orlando Arcia, who stepped on second for the third out.Price said the runners were in motion in an effort to provide a much-needed offensive spark.The one thing that cant happen is hitting a line drive right at an infielder, he said.The Brewers turned a triple play at home on April 29 against Miami and have eight in franchise history.Peraza put the Reds in front with a three-run homer, his third of the season, with one out in the fifth.The Brewers scored in the sixth on Carters RBI groundout to cut the lead to 3-2.After the Brewers loaded the bases off DeSclafani, Scooter Gennett drew a walk off reliever Tony Cingrani to tie the score. Milwaukeee regained the lead when Braun followed with a two-run single off Blake Wood. Enrique Hernandez Jersey. .Brent Suter (2-1) retired the only batter he faced to get the victory.Tyler Thornburg gave up a run in the ninth but notched his 13th save in 18 tries.GROWING PAINSWith about half of their starts over the last two years made by rookies, the Reds have faced challenges in remaining mentally sharp, Price said. Sometimes its how you lose, he said. If you are down frequently early enough, which was the case last year, its a challenge to get guys excited to come to the ballpark and play when you are down by three or four or five runs after three innings on a consistent basis. We havent had that problem as much this year, but weve still been challenged somewhat by the lack of pitching depth in our system.TRAINERS ROOMReds: Price said LHP Brandon Finnegan will start the series finale on Sunday. RHP Homer Bailey (biceps) had been considered after throwing a bullpen session on Tuesday. Im just not ready to commit that (Bailey) is in the rotation, Price said. We just havent gotten to that point yet.Brewers: Pinch-hitter Jake Elmore appeared to get hit on the left hand while attempting to bunt in the fifth inning. He then stumbled out of the box and fell to the ground. He gingerly hopped on one leg after getting up before slowly walking off the field with a team trainer at his side.UP NEXTReds: Dan Straily (13-8, 3.83 ERA) is 2-0 with a 1.77 ERA in three starts against the Brewers this season. Straily has nine wins since the All-Star break, tied for the most in the National League.Brewers: Taylor Jungmann (0-4, 8.34) will make his first start since being recalled from Double-A Biloxi on Sept. 6. Jungmann, whose last start for the Brewers came on April 28, is 0-7 with a 9.35 ERA over his last 10 starts for Milwaukee.

Nico Rosberg says the pressure of fighting for his first Formula One title meant he was not performing at his best at the final four races of the season. Lonnie Chisenhall Jersey .After winning the Japanese Grand Prix in early October, Rosberg could afford to end his season with three second place finishes and one third and still be crowned 2016 champion regardless of where title rival Lewis Hamilton finished. With Mercedes healthy advantage over the rest of the field, the championship was effectively Rosbergs to lose but, despite some close calls, he emerged with four second places behind Hamilton at the final four races..As the each round unfolded Rosberg insisted he was still taking it one race at a time, but speaking after the season finale in Abu Dhabi he admitted he was feeling the pressure.The last couple of races, that was not the real Nico, he said. The pressure slows you down but I am happy to come through the way that I did while on the other side Lewis had nothing to lose.Rosberg said he kept his answers to the media short and simple in the hope the press would not make his championship campaign any more difficult than it had to be.I dont change what I said, please respect that you are a powerful entity and I needed to get through this. Im sure you understand that. And in the past few races it is the best Lewis we have ever seen because he had no pressure, super motivated, super concentrated and working as hard as ever.He had nothing to lose when I had the pressure as I was the one in front and had something to lose. That definitely made it more difficult so I am glad it worked out.

This story appears in ESPN The Magazines November 14 Pain Issue. Subscribe today!BROKEN LEG, NO big deal: clean line through the tibia. A Chargers defensive back landed on me in the end zone. Didnt feel like much, just a little click in my ankle. I jogged to the sideline, and one of my Broncos teammates ran on for me. Theres always someone ready to run on.You OK? a coach asked. I think so, I said, and tried to walk it off, then sat on the bench. The game ended, and I limped across the field toward the locker room, my cleats scraping the concrete in the dilapidated bowels of San Diegos Qualcomm Stadium.Pain does not deter an NFL player. It lights the way.Every hit induces pain; the very essence of football is to submit your opponent through force. You learn very early that football is pain, that humans covered in metal and hard plastic colliding at top speed is going to hurt. But America rewards the boys who act as if it doesnt. So hit me again! Harder! Thats how you climb the football ladder: one lie at a time.The Broncos put me on injured reserve the day after I broke my leg, ending my 2004 season. Someone handed me a few bottles of pain meds and anti-inflammatories. Make sure you finish these, they said. They only work if you finish them. I was still a young player in the NFL and hadnt yet started to question the protocol, so I ate all of my pills like a good boy, and I disappeared into the dark world of rehab. This is how it starts. My team was on a playoff run. I was on Percocet.Next season, the team moved me to tight end and I had to gain weight: 25 pounds in three months. By June, I had my new body. I still knew how to run like a receiver, but my frame couldnt support the new torque. In training camp, I pulled my right hamstring, high up near my tailbone. No time to be hurt, though. I was trying to make the team at a new position.The pain was manageable, but it wasnt healing fast enough. I looked around the training room, littered with broken bodies and sad men hopping around on one foot, hooked up to machines. I had to get out of there. I expressed my anxiousness to the training staff -- and out came the needles. Two injections of Kenalog into the hamstring attachment, chased with another bottle of pills, and I was back on the field.I made the team, but the hamstring never fully healed and I spent most of the 2005 season on the bench. Come the next April, we were back at it. Pills before practice and a Toradol shot before every game. Toradol is a powerful anti-inflammatory that dulls the pain. It was our Superman juice. A crew of us lined up the night before games. We needed our capes.But nothing comes for free. We would all pay the price in the days that followed, and possibly for the rest of our lives. Toradol thins the blood. Players who filed class actions alleging misuse of the drug say it worsened the effect of cooncussions, among other things. Manny Ramirez Jersey. In 2007, my groin muscle popped off the bone on a kickoff. Thwap! At the hospital, blood was extracted from my arm and put in a centrifuge. Then it was injected back into the muscle attachment, a procedure called platelet-rich plasma injection, or PRP. I went on injured reserve and -- just like that -- my season was over. Percocet again followed, along with his trusty sidekick, depression.But I was older now, and I knew what was waiting at the bottom of that bottle: addiction. I watched it eat up my friends. So instead of diving back into the black river of pills, I decided to exercise the green option. I took no pills. I only inhaled can-nabis, and I healed quickly and com-pletely, through optimistic rehabilitation sessions and $100 worth of marijuana. During practice in Week 12 of my sixth and final season, the same problematic hamstring finally popped off the bone. Thwap! Season over, career soon to follow. A month or so later, I was fired by the Broncos new head coach, Josh McDaniels. His assistant left a message on the answering machine at my parents house. There are no happy endings to this story.Im now seven years removed from football. Recently, I was at the gym and feeling good. Sometimes when Im lifting weights, the blood starts flowing and I taste it again: the Immortal Man.Well, the Immortal Man put 225 pounds on his back and did a set of squats. I felt something jam in the lower spine, and the next day I could hardly walk. Sleeping was difficult. No position was comfortable. I have scar tissue along my lower spine, compressed disks, swollen and inflamed, that will never go away.The difference now is that I get to choose how to treat it. No one hands me an orange bottle. No one puts a needle in my back. Pills might kill the pain, but cannabis reframes it, allowing a speedier recovery and a more complete understanding of the injury. The propensity to kill the pain outright has helped create a dishonest relationship between a players body and the game of football. I guess some would argue that the NFLs approach to pain management works. Look how popular the sport is, after all. Look at the revenue. But in the process, the NFL turns some of the strongest members of our species into pill-popping hospital patients.We shouldnt forget about the human beings -- our brothers, fathers, husbands and sons -- who breathe life into an industry fueled by pain and sacrifice. We all end up broken in the end.Nate Jacksons memoir, Slow Getting Up: A Story of NFL Survival From the Bottom of the Pile, was published in 2013. His latest book, Fantasy Man: A Former NFL Players Descent Into the Brutality of Fantasy Football, was published by HarperCollins in September.

A patient crowd in Mirpur waits for VIP movement to pass through, beyond the barricade. Saucony Shoes Deals . This is the Dhaka term for a motorcade that is given high priority in traffic and the one that is about to pass through, the England cricket team convoy, is of the highest importance.It starts with an advanced team of police packed in pick-up trucks, followed by similar vehicles containing a Rapid Action Battalion and then the convoy starts with a long line with two buses in the middle. It is followed by more armed security men and women, a couple of minibuses, and then a fire brigade truck to round off.The convoy of about 10 to 12 different type of vehicles speeds through the emptied 8 km path from the Radisson hotel to the Shere Bangla National Stadium. The scene was similar in Chittagong where the roads at times were narrower than Dhakas.The most convenient location, of course, was the 20 yards the players walked to cross the road from the Chittagong hotel to the MA Aziz Stadium for Englands practice matches. But the longest the convoy had to travel was from their Dhaka hotel to the Fatullah Cricket Stadium which was 25km cutting right through Dhakas main artery from north to south.This was the scene for more than four weeks. Crowds waited patiently in front of every alleyway and street leading to the main road that connects the team hotel and stadium. It was inconvenient for hundreds of thousands of people, who were backlogged in various traffic jams linked to the convoys movement.Security was the most critical end of the bargain for England touring Bangladesh, and it was settled in mid-August when the ECB gave the go-ahead for the tour after a comprehensive security inspection****If the adjudicators of the man-of-the-series award took a wider view of events leading up to Englands tour of Bangladesh, Mehedi Hasan and Ben Stokes would have found competition coming from Reg Dickason, the ECBs director of security management. Although he says that it wasnt his job to convince the England players to tour Bangladesh, it was Dickasons iron-clad assurance that encouraged the ECB to give the green signalI didnt have to convince them, it wasnt my job Dickason told ESPNcricinfo. The awareness was heightened by the terrible attack on July 1. Where we travel throughout the world theres potential for such an attack as is shown in Germany, Belgium and France. Bangladesh was no different. From our point of view, it didnt really materially change the programme that we were going to put around the team.He said that Bangladeshs track record of delivering security as promised helped in building trust for Englands tour.History of previous performance definitely comes into play. Everyone is always well intentioned. I think what we have to establish is the ability of the organisers to do what they have said. A lot of trust came from the U-19 World Cup.The main purpose of the risk assessment for the Under-19 World Cup was to see if the event was safe to go ahead, and we deemed that it was. We came out here to see what the BCB and the government was actually going to provide. It went very well. They did everything they said they were going to do, said Dickason.Like most places in Dhaka after the July 1 terrorist attack in Gulshan, the BCB headquarters in Mirpur came under heightened security. The following month, Dickason, ECBs director of cricket operations John Carr and PCA chief executive David Leatherdale travelled to Bangladesh for the inspection.We met with the BCB and the local police, intelligence agencies, three overseas diplomatic missions and finally the Prime Minister. So based on what we were told and what we had witnessed in the U-19 World Cup, we had some degree of confidence we decided that this tour should go ahead and that was the recommendation, said Dickason.So on September 30, was Dickason nervous when the plane carrying the England players landed in Dhaka? I wasnt nervous but I am always concerned. I am conservative by nature. It is a fairly heavy responsibility with peoples safety.We got out just before the team. With the help of the BCB, we made sure things would be done exactly the way they said it would. It was done that way. In all of our tours we pplan for worst, hope for the best - thats the underlying methodology, he said. Cheap Saucony Shoes Store. ****You can understand why a player might think the security issues would disrupt their focus. Its not that there is any apparent hole in the cordon; its more that you can never escape a reminder of the need for it. When they open their curtains in the morning, they see armed police preventing cars from approaching the hotel. When they open their hotel door, they have armed police patrolling the landing. If they look up at training, they see a marksman on the roof of every adjacent building. The hotels are very good, but some of the players have been here a month and they arent allowed out. At every moment you are reminded: there have been threats; there is an issue. Focusing all your concentration on the ball at such moments might well be difficult.The most remarkable aspect of this is the convoy. Every time the team (and accompanying media) need to go anywhere, the roads are cleared and closed, a cordon of several hundred police line the route to ensure pedestrians cannot approach and a convoy of buses, people carriers, fire trucks and heavily-armed swat teams drive as quickly as possible past bewildered - and presumably frustrated - onlookers. Thats not as easy as it sounds: some of the roads are poor and the speed bumps in these parts are viciously effective. So, in both Chittagong and Dhaka, there are moments when the convoy slows to a crawl. Those points on the journey are especially well patrolled by army and police personnel, with the swat team vehicles driving alongside the team bus to ensure that anyone trying to reach the players will have to go through them first.The most dangerous it ever felt was when an over-zealous driver has struggled to stop. With no seat belts in the van, it is fair to say he gave the Test Match Special team - and your ESPNcricinfo correspondent - a bit of a wake-up.Generally, though, it felt well organised and safe. And, once you try and venture out on your own (a 5kms journey took two hours in a taxi one night), you realise the benefits of the escort. England have been looked after exceptionally well.****Dickason observed that despite the heightened security provided in Bangladesh which he called gold standard, it would probably not be similar in other cricketing destinations.I dont think it is a one-size fits all. Risk tolerance in different countries varies. I have been in international sport for 20 years and the road closures in Dhaka and Chittagong and the government input is as good as I have ever seen.I dont know if this will be standard but it is certainly the gold standard at the moment. I dont know if it will be rolled out in tours in places where the perception of risk and the actual risk is a little bit lower, he said.England staying in Bangladesh for the full tour has been a major boost for the BCB. A visit from Sean Carroll, Cricket Australias head of security, last week was the first sign that Australia are actively thinking of visiting Bangladesh next August.We have been very happy with the level of security. Each country will have their list of criteria. Sean Carroll is a very competent chap in his field. He is having a close look at things and will make a recommendation to his board, said Dickason.What has also been encouraging is the sensitivity shown by the touring side to the sacrifices made by the people who get caught up the convoys movement. I think it is a sacrifice. We have probably inconvenienced them.Our players were very conscious of that, and we were always on time. If we were a minute late, it would inconvenience another hundred thousand people. The Bangladeshi people have been absolutely sensational, he said.There is little doubt that the tour basically saved Bangladesh from a long isolation of hosting international cricket. It would have deflated the general mood of the country further but now there is a bit more to look forward to. After all, they have just defeated England in a Test match. Even the unseasonal heat of November doesnt seem to bother anyone.

In the first Test against Bangladesh last month, Gareth Batty took four wickets, went for fewer runs an over than Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid, and England won. http://www.brownsrookiestore.com/Browns-Rashard-Higgins-Jersey/ . For the second Test, England dropped the veteran offspinner in favour of his Surrey team-mate, the left-arm orthodox spinner Zafar Ansari, who went round the park some and got only two wickets as England lost by a fair bit. Yet it was Ansari and not Batty who lined up against India in Rajkot earlier this month.In England last summer, Batty took almost twice as many first-class wickets as Ansari. Of course, Ansari is 15 years younger with a long career ahead of him. As a left-armer, he offers variation to Moeens offspin and Rashids leggies. But could it be, though, that the England selectors always had Ansari pencilled in for the India Tests, with an eye on cricket history?England have only ever won four Test series in India. Each time, a left-arm spinner has featured prominently. Monty Panesar in 2012-13, Phil Edmonds in 1984-85, Derek Underwood in 1976-77. Douglas Jardine took two left-arm spinners to India in 1933-44, Hedley Verity and James Langridge, who took 33 of Englands 58 wickets. Never since has an England cricket team left for India without a slow left-armer in their touring party.Batty might have spun the ball more than Ansari in Rajkot, and offered Alastair Cook more control. He might even have got more wickets. But he wouldnt have been able to send down the sort of delivery with which Ansari almost got Cheteshwar Pujara in the first innings. Bowling round the wicket to the right- hander, Ansari trotted in close to the umpire and the wicket before leaping out wide in the delivery stride to create an angle and firing one in towards off stump. As it landed, the ball straightened - not enough to take it away from the batsman but enough to alter the natural angle of the delivery, which without the straightening have gone on to leg stump.Pujara, expecting a bit more turn than there was, played outside the line, was struck on the pad, and given out by umpire Chris Gaffaney. The decision was overturned using the DRS, as the ball was found to be bouncing over the stumps, but later in the innings Ansari dismissed nightwatchman Amit Mishra and Ajinkya Rahane with similar deliveries.Geoff Miller, who toured with Underwood in 1976-77 and was an England selector at the time of Panesars series in 2012-13, says that conditions in India suit left-arm spinners. It will turn out there but not always straightaway and not every ball, he says. That inconsistency makes the ball that straightens slightly particularly deadly. If the ball is not spinning, the left-arm-around angle gives the bowler a chance to beat batsmen on the inside as well as the outside.Ravindra Jadeja has taken 67 wickets at 18.73 on home pitches. He doesnt spin the ball that much or that often, but hes always an lbw threat. Pakistans Abdur Rehman caused England all sorts of problems on similar pitches, in Dubai in 2012-13. Fourteen of his 19 wickets in that series were either bowled or lbw.Former England left-arm swing bowler John Lever, who made his Test debut on the 1976-77 tour, says that when the left-armer bowls wide of the stumps, the right-hand batsman finds it more difficult to line up the delivery. The batsman has to decide, late, whether to play or leave, he says. If it doesnt turn and you leave it, theres a problem.Unlike with offspinners, the angle at which left-armers deliver the ball means that they dont actually have to bowl a doosra to cause the batsman an additional problem.The sort of ball that Ansari got his wickets with in Rajkot, the sort Jadeja bowls and Rehman bowled, starts off looking like its going to slide in with the arm. On landing, it straightens marginally or just holds its line. This presents right-hand batsmen with a confusing set of angles to deal with. Particularly a batsman who sets himself early against the balls original trajectory, towards leg stump. Or who, like Pujara against Ansari, plays outside the line, expecting it to turn away from the bat. These are the sort of deliveries that Kevin Pietersen had problems with a few years ago.Nine of Panesars 17 wickets in 2012-13, were either bowled or lbw. So were ten of Veritys and Langridges 33, but only three of Edmonds and five of Underwoods 1976-77 tally. As Ansari showed when he had R Ashwin caught at cover on the final evening in Rajkot, as England chased an unlikely victory, left-armers can get wickets with flight and traditional spin too.Even when left-arm spinners havent won series in India for England, theyve still been in the side, pressed into service for India duty. On Englands second tour to India, in 1951-52, Malcolm Hilton, a left-armer from Lancashire, played two of his four Tests and took 11 wickets. In 1963-64, England picked Yorkshires Don Wilson for the first time. A horse for the Indian course, Wilson played only one more Test, seven years later, against New Zealand. Ian Blackwell went to India in 2005-06.Regulars Tony Lock, Norman Gifford, Phil Tufnell and Ashley Giles have also toured India with England.Offspinner James Tredwell, who went to India in 2012-13 as back-up to Panesar and Graeme Swann, says that left-arm spinners have another advantage over other types of slow bowlers in that they tend to bowl the ball into the pitch a bit more, with a bit more pace. Peter Such, the former England offspinner and current ECB lead spin coach, says that this is an advantage on slower pitches, like those in India. Underwood, Edmonds and Panesar could all get the ball through at a strong pace without losing the ability to spin the ball, he points out.Englands left-arm spinners in their winning series in India have been both economical and a wicket threat. In 2012-13, Panesar took 17 wickets as England came back from 1-0 down to take the next two Tests. In the final match, with England needing a draw to clinch the series, he bowled 52 overs for just 81 runs. Edmonds too was miserly in 1984-85. In the second Test, in Delhi, where England won to square the series, he sent down 88.2 overs for just 143 runs (while taking six wickets). During the series, he went, on average, at 2.11 an over. Underwood, too, kept the runs down when he wasnt taking wickets. His economy rate, 2.01, was the lowest of all England bowlers in 1976-77. Deadly would put the ball on the spot all the time, create pressure, says Lever, who bagged 26 wickets on that tour himself. Underwood hated going for runs, you could see it in his body language, in his facial expressions. He was always trying to bowl dot balls. A dot ball is a good ball, hed say. Last ball of every over had to be a dot ball.Such observes that left-armers have another way of keeping the score down - bowling over the wicket into the rough outside the right-handers leg stump. Giles did this to great effect in 2000-01, much to Sachin Tendulkars annoyance.Tredwell adds that left-armers can also cause trouble for left-hand batsmen later in the game, when rough starts appearing outside their off stump from right-arm seam bowlers following through on the pitch. There arent as many left-arm seamers, so offspinners spend more time bowling on the good part of the wicket, he says.Not that this has mattered much down the years. In 49 Test matches spread over 13 tours and 84 years, only 14 left-hand batsmen (of whom only six are recognised batsmen) have played for India against England in India.The preponderance of right-handers is borne out by figures from Indian domestic cricket. Of the top 20 all-time Ranji Trophy run-makers, only four are left-handers. Not hugely surprising, then, that ten of the top 20 bowlers are left-arm spinners. As Such says, Spinners are more effective when their stock delivery turns away from the batsman.The left-armers magic didnt work every time for England. Tufnell struggled in 1992-93, as did all the other England bowlers. Panesar and Ian Blackwell took five wickets for 383 runs between them in 2005-06, and on the next tour, Panesar averaged over 50. Even Underwood struggled on the flat, lifeless pitches that India prepared in 1981-82. Its also worth pointing out that in all four series in which they were successful, England scored heavily enough for the sort of attritional approach favoured by their left-arm spinners to reap dividends.Ansari is very much Englands third spinner. His job is to keep things steady, in shorter spells, while Moeen, Rashid, and maybe, given the right conditions, the seamers, threaten Indias batting line-up.In some ways it will be harder for Ansari to do this than it was for his more illustrious predecessors. And not just because he is only starting out on his career and is as yet unproven at Test level, but because cricket isnt such an attritional game these days and batsmen are adept at finding ways of scoring off even the most miserly bowler.The DRS might make lbws more likely but it also encourages batsmen to play with their bat rather than bat and pad. In the past, a stock ball from a left-arm-round like Ansari, angled into the pads, might have brought a tentative prod forward, the batsman unsure whether the ball will straighten or turn. These days, batsmen are more flexible, less patient.If, though, Ansari can provide England with a solid third spinning option, and along the way snaffle out one or two Indian batsmen with the sort of awkward delivery that did for Mishra and Rahane and almost got Pujara in Rajkot, then Trevor Bayliss, Cook and Co, will be happy. And the legend of the left-arm English spinner in India will live on. http://www.brownsrookiestore.com/Browns-Isaiah-Crowell-Jersey/ . -- Patrick Reed got an early start in golf. http://www.brownsrookiestore.com/Browns-Deshone-Kizer-Jersey/ .

TULSA, Okla. -- Junior Etou scored 17 points and made two clutch baskets down the stretch that helped Tulsa repel a strong Oregon State rally for a 75-64 win on Tuesday night.Junior college transfer Jaleel Wheeler added 16 points and Sterling Taplin and Pat Birt nine each in matchup of two of last years NCAA Tournament participants which were hit hard by graduation. Tulsa (2-2) shot 45 percent and outrebounded OSU 38-23, led by Etons seven boards.Tres Tinkle scored 19 points for Oregon State (2-3), JaQuori McLaughlin had 12 points and five rebounds and Drew Eubanks added 10 points and five boards.Trailing 37-22 after a tentative first half, Oregon State asserted itself early in the second, opening with a 17-3 run to pull within 40-39 on a 3-pointer by Kendal Manuel.Tulsa regained some control with a 7-0 run by Taplin, who made a 3-pointer, a free throw and then a steal and layup to push the lead back to 53-44. OSU kept chipping away and was within four when Etou answered with a 3-pointer from the left corner, then a layup on a nifty assist from Taplin, giving Tulsa a 67-58 advantage with 2:50 left.I think what we did was we shot quick shots early in the second half, said Tulsa coach Frank Haith. We got out of character on offense in the second half. They have good players and they made some shots, they got their rhythm and they got confidence, but Im proud of how we bowed our backs and didnt falter.Tulsa opened the big halftime lead despite using 12 players and changing lineups constantly. Seven players made at least one 3-pointer in the half, eight scored and Tulsa limited the Beavers to 39 percent shooting (9-23).Im proud of the way we battled back, said OSU coach Wayne Tinkle. They had 25 free throws to eight for us and had a big edge on the boards. We played with much more purpose in the second half and thats the waay we need to play, with passion, energy and purpose. http://www.brownsrookiestore.com/Browns-Bernie-Kosar-Jersey/. . I didnt see that in the first half.BIG PICTUREOregon State: The Beavers lost eight players who had played in a combined 622 games at OSU. Oregon State coach Wayne Tinkle admitted he peeled a little paint with his halftime and post-game sermons in reminding his young team of the passion and intensity it needs to demonstrate on a consistent basis.We were acting way too cool, Tinkle said. Thats not how you play at Oregon State and these young guys need to learn that.Oregon State was without guard Stephen Thompson Jr., out with a leg injury.Tulsa: The Hurricane are replacing 10 seniors and have just five players who were on the roster last year, including two who sat out (TK Edogi redshirted and Etou was a transfer from Rutgers).With 10 new players, its all about practicing, working to get better, Haith said. Weve got some high character guys who want to work and its showing.NEWCOMERS COME UP BIGNot only did Wheeler score 16 points, but freshman center Will Magnay replaced Edogi and fellow freshman Martins Igbanu at center for most of the final 10 minutes, making 7 of 8 free throws down the stretch, grabbing four rebounds and coming up with two blocks.Its nice to have the three of them and go with who has the hot hand, Haith said. Will has a big body, knows the game and has a lot of upside. Plus hell be about an 80 percent free throw shooter. Its good to have him in there when theyre fouling to get back in the game.UP NEXTOregon State: returns home for games Friday against Fresno State and Monday against Southern Oregon.Tulsa: visits crosstown rival Oral Roberts Monday.

BCCI president Anurag Thakur has said his board will oppose the proposed two-tier Test system to protect the interests of smaller member nations. Cheap Air Max 270 All White . As the head of the powerful BCCI, Thakurs statement lends heft to the criticism of the proposal by Sri Lanka Cricket and the Bangladesh Cricket Board, even as the boards of Australian and New Zealand have welcomed the move.The BCCI is against the two-tier Test system because the smaller countries will lose out and the BCCI wants to take care of them, Thakur told the New Indian Express. It is necessary to protect their interests.The proposal to split Test cricket into two tiers - with seven nations in tier one, and five, including two new Test nations, in the second tier - was mooted at the ICCs annual conference, in Edinburgh, where ICC chief executive David Richardson advocated a proper competition structure, with promotion and relegation, for Test cricket to have greater context. Unless we can give some meaning to these series beyond the rankings and a trophy, then interest in Test cricket will continue to waver, Richardson said. The same applies if we allow uncompetitive Test cricket to take place too often.While SLC voiced skepticism about the financial model of the two-tier system, the BCB felt Bangladeshs growth would be affected should they be divorced from the top teams. We believe that more we play against competitive sides, the better we will get, BCB vice-president Mahbubul Anam said. If we didnt play against better-standard sides in ODIs, we wouldnt have come this far. We were given a reality check when we were promoted to the highest level. I feel that if we go backwards, our cricket will regress.Thakurs comments seemed to address both concerns as he spelt out the drawbacks of the two-tier system. In the two-tier system, they will lose out on a lot, including revenue and the opportunity to play against top teams, he said. We dont want that to happen. We want to work in the best interests of world cricket and that is why our team plays against all the countries.In Galle, meanwhile, Cricket Australia chairman David Peever urged nations to embrace change and balance notions of tradition with progress.

Usman Khawaja believes Cricket Australias new concussion substitute rule should be introduced in international cricket, after it was used for the first time in Fridays Matador Cup elimination final in Sydney. Dan Marino Jersey .New South Wales batsman Daniel Hughes was struck by a bouncer from Peter Siddle during Fridays game and after retiring hurt and being assessed by Dr John Orchard, was ruled out of the rest of the match. Under the new rule introduced by Cricket Australia in the Matador Cup and BBL this summer, the Blues were then entitled to activate a concussion substitute.That replacement player, Nick Larkin, then officially became part of the playing XI and could have taken full part in the match - indeed, he was walking to the crease to bat when play was called off due to rain. However, the ICC has rejected the idea of using concussion substitutes in international cricket and first-class games, meaning the system will not be in place for the Sheffield Shield.Its a sensible rule, so yeah I would like to see it introduced [internationally], Khawaja, who will captain Queensland in Sundays final against New South Wales, said. But obviously theres a lot of factors that go into it and Im sure theyll make those decisions.Its good that its taken out of the players hands because the players dont want to leave and sometimes it can be dangerous. As players well never [want to] get off ... especially when youre batting.The concussion substitute was one of the recommendations that emerged from an independent review into the death of Phillip Hughes in 2014. Ed Cowan, who was batting alongside Daniel Hughes when he was struck on Friday evening, said it was time to take such decisions out of the hands of players and rely entirely on medical advice.I certainly think any playing condition that helps to improve the safety of players, and takes concussion out of the players hands and into the medical experts hands, I think is a good thing, Cowan said. The game, unfortunately, has changed in the last few years.We play a sport where the danger of the sport is now in the forefront of everybodys mind. As long as the game is looking to progress in its playing conditions to ensure the safety of its players, then everyone is happy.Players always want to play. Players play through all kinds of injuries; soft tissue injuries, broken bones and traditionally would have played through concussion. But weve gone past that and I think the players are certainly in favour of the game progressing.Hughes is considered a chance of playing in Sundays decider at North Sydney Oval, but there will be no surprise inclusion of Test stars Steven Smith and David Warner for New South Wales, with the pair being rested ahead of the Test summer. Fast bowler Josh Hazlewood, who was Man of the Match in the elimination final, will also sit out as his workload is managed.

West Coast midfielder Andrew Gaff is confident Sharrod Wellingham will bounce back from last weeks shocker, saying the former Pie will make amends in Saturdays AFL clash with Collingwood at the MCG. http://www.officiallionsgear.com/Lions-Nick-Bellore-Draft-Jersey/ .Wellingham committed a series of horror turnovers in West Coatss six-point win over Melbourne in Perth.His shanked kick-in that gifted Melbourne a goal infuriated coach Adam Simpson so much that he gave the 28-year-old a spray at three-quarter time.Wellingham is usually one of West Coasts best ball users, but the heavy cork he copped late in the first quarter may have affected his kicking.Gaff said he and his teammates retained full faith in Wellinghams skillset.Hes one of our bravest ball users, and he tries to do kicks that probably some guys wouldnt do, Gaff said on Monday.But most of the time they come off and look great.Then theres days on the weekend when they dont come off and it probably doesnt look as good.When youre playing in the backline and turn a couple over, its highlighted a little bit more because its normally in front of goal.But we know hes going to work pretty hard during the week and make amends.The Eagles are just four percentage points adrift of second spot following a five-match winning run.But their form has been scratchy in the past two weeks, and Gaff admits they were lucky to come away with a win against Melbourne.The absence of ruckman Nic Naitanui has left a huge void in the midfield, but the 2012 All-Australian is a chance to return against the Magpies.Naitanui, who underwent surgery last month to address Achilles tendon soreness, is back in full training and needs to pull up well from the next few sessions if he is to be given the green light to face Collingwood.Its 50-50 and a coachs call as to whether he plays this week or next week, Gaff said.Hes been flying around in a few of the drills we were doing last week.West Coast lost the inside-50m count 66-37 against the Demons.The looming return of Naitanui will help West Coast address a few problem areas, but Gaff said it wouldnt fix everything.Theres no hiding around were probably not playing our best footy at the moment, Gaff said.Midfielder Dom Sheed, who has been grounded most of the year by pectoral and knee issues, is a chance to return to AFL ranks after making it through his fourth successive WAFL game unscathed.Defender Will Schofield is also available for selection after being rested last week. http://www.officiallionsgear.com/Lions-Devon-Kennard-Draft-Jersey/ .

Adelaide will give two of their brightest prospects a chance to impress in their AFL clash with struggling Brisbane.The Crows have named debutant Reilly OBrien to replace injured ruckman Sam Jacobs on Saturday, while powerful midfielder Cam Ellis-Yolmen will line up for the first time this season in place of rested veteran Scott Thompson.Its the first time fifth-placed Adelaide have added new blood to their side since they included defender Ricky Henderson in their round seven loss to the Western Bulldogs.The Crows have opted to rotate through the same group of 27 players, which are the fewest used by any side in the 2016 competition and a far cry from the likes of injury-ravaged Gold Coast (39).For players such as Ellis-Yolmen, who played 11 games in 2015, the Crows hot form and good run with injuries has proved a major obstacle to senior selection.Adelaide assistant coach James Podsiadly says the 23-year-olds inclusion against Brisbane presents him with an opportunity to be considered for the finals.From the match committees perspective, weve been looking at him all year, Podsiadly said on Friday.Hes shown some resilience to wait until rouund 20 to get his first game. http://www.officiallionsgear.com/Lions-Jalen-Reeves-Maybin-Draft-Jersey/. You can say hes a bit unlucky, but at the same time weve had some good guys in some good form.We wouldnt pick him if we didnt think he could have an impact in finals.Breaking into the side has proven even tougher for OBrien.First-choice ruckman Jacobs had notched up 93 consecutive games - the second-longest streak in the AFL - before being ruled out for the Brisbane game with a sprained ankle.OBrien will go head-to-head with another rookie in second-gamer Archie Smith, who accumulated 30 hitouts and 19 touches in his debut against Port Adelaide last week.Crows captain Taylor Walker, who was sidelined for a week with an ankle injury, has also been added for the Saturday night clash at Adelaide Oval.He replaces rookie forward Mitch McGovern, who will be managed after playing every game this season.With just two wins to their name this season, Brisbane could be in for more pain after conceding the highest score of the year in their 25.23 (173) to 11.13 (79) loss to the Power.
