The touring England side found itself in a difficult situation on the eve of the first Test match against Pakistan in Rawalpindi as several of its players, including captain Ben Stokes , were struck down by an unknown virus. The Pakistan cricket board said on Wednesday that it was discussing next steps with the England and Wales Cricket Board. "The PCB and ECB are in discussions regarding the commencement of the 1st #PAKvENG Test as some England players are down with viral infection," the board said on Twitter. England paceman Stuart Broad decided to have some fun and tweeted the photos of former England captain Michael Atherton and Nasser Hussain with the caption, "An option?" as a response to the tweet by the two cricket boards. Not to be left behind in the social media banter game, Hussain immediately replied on Broad's comment with, "Siri show me the opposite of Bazball !!!". In what can seen as a great example of self-depricating humour, Hussain pretty much … [Read more...] about Stuart Broad’s Suggestion To Replace Unwell England Players Gets Hilarious Response From Nasser Hussain | Cricket News

A decision on whether to start the first Test between Pakistan and England will be taken early Thursday morning after several members of the touring squad fell ill with a viral infection, the home cricket board said. The start of the Test -- England's first in Pakistan for 17 years -- was thrown into doubt after up to seven of the touring side's players, including captain Ben Stokes , were struck down on Wednesday. The same number of support staff were also laid low. "The two boards discussed the outbreak of a viral infection in the England camp and unanimously agreed to delay the decision on the commencement of the first Test until 0730 Pakistan time (02:30 GMT) tomorrow," said a Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) release. The decision was reached after medical advice from the England doctors, it added. Both boards will also look at the option of postponing the Test for a day. "The two boards also agreed, subject to the England players not recovering well enough to take the … [Read more...] about Rawalpindi Test Could Be Postponed By A Day If England Players Fail To Recover | Cricket News

Getty Images The trifecta almost came through last week. I went 11-5 straight up, 3-2-1 with my best bets as part of the Pick Six Podcast, but went 8-8 with my CBSSports.com expert picks. Why couldn't the Packers score late to get the cover, rather than kicking that field goal? As it is, it was another solid week. The 3-2-1 raises my best-bet record to a sizzling 40-27-3. That I will take. My ATS record overall is now 82-90-8 and my straight-up record is 106-74-0. We are into December games now, which means it's crunch time down the stretch. It also means it's time for the contenders to really emerge on the field and picking games. There are six weeks left. Let's close with a big-time rush.

When Harry Kane went to shake hands with United States midfielder Tyler Adams before kick-off, he was up against the only captain at this World Cup who is younger than him. In fact, he was up against the only other captain in Qatar under the age of 30. For many of the rest, this has looked like a tournament too far. It is easy to assume that it has always been this way. In the mind's eye, those legends of yesteryear appear larger than life. It becomes more difficult to picture their younger self once they have aged and the image of the older gentleman crystallises. And yet, Didier Deschamps was just 29 years old when he lifted the trophy at France '98. Carlos Alberto was a mere pup at 25 when he captained Brazil to era-defining glory in 1970. Bobby Moore was the same age when he achieved the feat with England in 1996. Datawrapper Due to your consent preferences, you’re not able to view this. Open Privacy Options Diego Maradona?
