The win was set up by the bowlers, though. Gladiators had a decent opening stand of 28 with Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Nicholas Pooran, the No. 1 and No. 3 on the tournament run-scorers’ list, but Narine broke through in the third over with Kohler-Cadmore’s wicket for a seven-ball 13. Pooran fell to George Scrimshaw two balls later, and Gladiators were suddenly 28 for 2, which became 36 for 3, 41 for 4, and 57 for 5 after 7.1 overs, with Narine returning 2 for 6 from his two overs without conceding a single boundary.
By Peter Weis @PeterVicey There were protests all across the Bundesrepublik on Saturday afternoon as German football fans demonstrated their opposition to outside investment in the Bundesliga ahead of another DFL vote on Monday. Photo: Steffen Prößdorf, CC BY-SA 4.0 Having seen their previous proposal defeated in late May, club bosses and DFL supervisory board members Hans-Joachim Watzke of Dortmund and Axel Hellmann of Frankfurt (among many others) are still trying to gain approval for an outside investor model that will allow an outside investor to purchase a stake in German football’s top two flights. A smaller scale investment…
LAFC figure Maxime Crepeau returns to the Major League Soccer Cup after a “a hell of a 12 months” that saw the goalkeeper endure a grueling rehabilitation process to reclaim his spot in the team’s starting lineup. Crepeau led the Western Conference team to the insurmountable heights last season, recording 76 saves and nine clean sheets in 36 appearances to propel the Black and Gold to the Supporters’ Shield and 2022 MLS Cup final. He was indispensable. On November 5, 2022, the player lined up to face the Philadelphia Union in the final. The Western Conference giants stood on the brink of…
Arsenal can regain top spot in the Premier League table with a win over Aston Villa at Villa Park this evening. Gunners boss Mikel Arteta has made just one change from the side that sealed a dramatic 4-3 victory over Luton Town on Tuesday night. However, David Raya keeps his place in goal despite his poor display at Kenilworth Road. The Spaniard was at fault for two goals leading to some calling for Aaron Ramsdale’s return, but Arteta has kept faith with Raya between the sticks. Takehiro Tomiyasu has been ruled out for a month with a calf injury so…
Ian Machado Garry can’t wait to get UFC 296 fight week started even if he’s got a lot on his mind right now that has nothing to do with beating Vicente Luque on Dec. 16. Most notably, the 26-year-old Irish prospect raised concerns over possible danger awaiting his wife and child due to recent drama that has mainly stemmed from a war of words with UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland. The situation centers around Strickland taking shots at the relationship Machado Garry shares with his wife, Layla Machado Garry, and a series of direct messages allegedly from the welterweight prospect…
Getting onto the campus at the Naval Academy is similar to Army, although it has a different feel. The Naval Academy is in Annapolis, Maryland, a town of 40,000, and adjacent to streets upon streets of shops and pubs and restaurants. It’s a bit of a summer tourist destination and a definite boating hot spot when the weather is agreeable. It is 338 acres on the edge of one of Maryland’s most eye-pleasing cities. Whether it is Army coach Jeff Monken or Newberry, both agree that getting prospects to campus is when reality begins to overtake perception for prospects, and their families.…
