McClenaghan: Lucknow wicket will suit Russell’s bowling

Match detailsLucknow Super Giants (3rd; W6 L4) vs Kolkata Knight Riders (2nd; W7 L3)Lucknow, 19.30 IST (14.00 GMT)Big pictureFifty-plus games in, no team has qualified for the playoffs yet. Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants, sitting at No. 2 and No. 3 on the table at the moment, can still miss out on qualification. Neither team will want to get caught up in the mid-table muddle, and two points here could go a long way in sparing them that.Related

Injured Mayank all but out of IPL 2024

KKR’s big-hitters, who are coming into this game on the back of two wins, will be heading into unfamiliar territory. They’ve never played an IPL game in Lucknow. The pitches at the venue have also not been too predictable. But spin has played an important role in most games here, which KKR will be pleased with given how well their spin pair of Varun Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine have performed thus far. During their previous meeting this season at Eden Gardens, the LSG batters were stifled by the duo in the middle.LSG have also not cracked the pitches at Ekana so far. They put up 196 on what looked like a good batting pitch against Rajasthan Royals and went down by seven wickets, while they chased down 145 on a sluggish pitch with four balls to spare in the match against MI. So it will once again come down to what pitch they will serve up on Sunday – red, black, or mixed soils. LSG have been hurt by injuries all season: their X-factor bowler Mayank Yadav is now all but ruled out of the tournament, while their opener Quinton de Kock had missed the last game after hurting his hand. In an attempt to qualify for the playoffs, the hosts will be trying to add some consistency to their starting line-up and their results.Form guideLSG WLWWL (last five matches, most recent first)
KKR WWLWLPrevious meetingPhil Salt (47-ball 89) and Mitchell Starc (3 for 28) helped the hosts thump LSG by eight wickets. LSG could post only 161 for 7 after they were put in, which was then chased down by the hosts in 15.4 overs.Team news and Impact Player strategyLucknow Super GiantsLSG had middle-order batter Ashton Turner in their side in the last match in de Kock’s absence, and Arshin Kulkarni was brought in as the Impact Player to open with KL Rahul. LSG coach Justin Langer said that de Kock “should be ready to play the next game or so”. With Mayank out, LSG are likely to bring back Yash Thakur or Amit Mishra.Probable XII: 1 KL Rahul, 2 , 3 Marcus Stoinis, 4 Deepak Hooda, 5 Nicholas Pooran, 6 Ashton Turner, 7 Ayush Badoni, 8 Krunal Pandya, 9 Ravi Bishnoi, 10 Naveen-ul-Haq, 11 Mohsin Khan 12 Kolkata Knight RidersHarshit Rana will be back having served his one-match disciplinary ban. Manish Pandey was brought in as the Impact Player for Angkrish Raghuvanshi in the first innings during their match against MI after a batting collapse. He played a crucial knock of 42 to rebuild the innings along with Venkatesh Iyer. KKR will likely go the same route in case they need an extra batting hand.Probable XII: 1 Phil Salt (wk), 2 Sunil Narine, 3 Angkrish Raghuvanshi, 4 Shreyas Iyer (capt), 5 Venkatesh Iyer, 6 Rinku Singh, 7 , 8 Andre Russell, 9 Ramandeep Singh, 9 Mitchell Starc, 10 Vaibhav Arora, 11 Harshit Rana, 12 In the spotlightMarcus Stoinis has returned to form at the right time for LSG. After a brilliant solo effort against Chennai Super Kings, he bagged a duck against RR – a match which LSG lost – and then came back with another match-winning effort of 62 against MI on a slow wicket. LSG have also finally found the right position for him at No. 3, where he’s made those big scores. His good form has also taken the pressure off Nicholas Pooran to make up for the lack of runs from the top order. His medium pace has also come in handy – he’s dismissed the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Suryakumar Yadav in the last two games.A fifty against RCB aside, captain Shreyas Iyer is yet to make a significant impact with the bat in KKR’s good run this season. He has 257 runs in 10 innings at a strike rate of 137.43 and comes into the games with scores of 6, 33* and 28 in the last three games. He has got a few good starts but hasn’t been able to convert, and that’s not hurt KKR much only because of the contributions from the rest of the line-up. In the reverse fixture, he hit a run-a-ball 38 when Salt at the other end was hitting at a strike rate of nearly 190.Pitch and conditionsWhile the pitch during LSG’s fixture against RR was batting-friendly, the one laid out against MI was on the slower side. Given KKR have a strong spin attack, the home side will not want to give away any advantage in that department. The average first-innings score at the venue since IPL 2023 has been 160.Stats that matter KL Rahul’s strike rate in the powerplay has improved from 119 in the last season to 140 this season. This season, he has also batted through the powerplay 70% of the time. KKR bowlers’ economy rate in the powerplay is 9.8, which is the worst among all teams this season. LSG bowlers, meanwhile, have conceded only at 8.2 in this phase. How do you stop Stoinis? Call Varun or Russell. Stoinis has been dismissed by Varun and Russell two times each in four meetings respectively. Stoinis also strikes only at 60 against Varun.Quotes”I think he’s really enjoying the elevation to No. 3 where he can take responsibility. When he opened the bowling the other day, he takes responsibility and I think that’s what happens with all the best players. They want to stand up and take responsibility under pressure and he’s doing that very well. He helps lead that energy, that warrior energy where you walk out in the middle and you’re just ready for the contest.”

An unbroken double-century seventh-wicket stand between Ed Barnard and Michael Burgess rescued Warwickshire from the depths of despair and lifted them into a commanding position against Essex at Chelmsford.The pair came together with the score on 104 for 6 soon after lunch and by the close, 56 overs later, they had established a Warwickshire record for the seventh wicket against Essex of 204 and counting, passing a mark that had stood for 92 years.During an innings in which he initially had to knuckle down before breaking loose, Barnard took his tally in his last four Vitality County Championship innings to 336 runs with an unbeaten 115. Meanwhile, 105 represented Burgess’s highest score for the season by 62. Neither man’s innings was chanceless, but both looked imperious.Essex had appeared well in control when they claimed five wickets before lunch – four of those wickets falling to catches by Simon Harmer – but they toiled for the last two sessions as their usually consistent strike-force was reduced to ordinariness. Warwickshire finished on 308 for 6.With James Anderson’s impending international retirement announced this week, Essex paceman Sam Cook had an early opportunity to elevate himself on the list of candidates to replace him.It took Cook just 13 balls to strike with his 26th wicket of the season after Warwickshire decided to bat on a grass-less wicket that encouraged the bowlers early on before easing significantly as the day progressed. It was unlucky 13 for Rob Yates, who edged low down to Harmer at second slip. Cook bowled another 44 balls before claiming his only other wicket.In between Warwickshire slipped to 64 for 5 with Shane Snater grabbing two wickets in the space of six balls, inducing Will Rhodes to thick edge to Harmer again before the off stump of Sam Hain was removed as he shouldered arms without scoring.Harmer’s third catch of the innings came off his own bowling as Dan Mousley patted the ball tamely back down the wicket.Alex Davies had remained resolute at the other end, taking his three boundaries in a 60-ball 19 off Jamie Porter, one driven straight past the bowler. However, Porter had the last laugh as Harmer pulled off a brilliant one-handed catch to his right to dismiss the Warwickshire captain.Barnard swept Harmer for two fours in three balls, but otherwise settled into an obdurate sixth-wicket stand with Jacob Bethell, who got off the mark with a single from his 26th ball, and that thanks to a misfield at square leg.Bethell was re-energised after lunch and multiplied this total by five when he tucked Porter off his legs to the square-leg boundary before rocking on to his back-foot to cut the same bowler for another.The partnership steadied the ship for 20 overs while adding 40 runs before Bethell played down the wrong line and was Cook’s second victim. It was the last wicket of the day to fall.Burgess and Barnard accelerated the score with their first fifty coming from just 59 balls, though both players survived dropped catches. Barnard was on 17 when missed by Michael Pepper off Cook while Burgess was grassed at bat-pad and then off a top-edge on 19 and 39.A reprieved Burgess reverse-swept Harmer for a smart boundary and reached his half-century from 49 balls with a six over midwicket off Matt Critchley. When Burgess hit Harmer for another four, this time with a more orthodox sweep, he carried the stand past 150 in 40 overs.Barnard was first to his century, scored off 198 balls; Burgess slowed as he neared three-figures but still reached it from 149 balls.

The ICC and CWI issued a joint statement after the Trinidad & Tobago Prime Minister confirmed that security agencies were monitoring a terror threat to the event

ESPNcricinfo staff06-May-2024

The ICC and Cricket West Indies have assured that a “comprehensive and robust security plan” is in place for the Men’s T20 World Cup after Trinidad & Tobago Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley confirmed that security agencies in the West Indies were monitoring a possible terror threat to the event.Rowley spoke to the after reports of the terror threat, which had circulated on social media, emerged over the weekend.”Unfortunately, the threat of terrorism in its many and varied expressions is an ever-present danger in the world of the 21st century,” Rowley said. “It is against this backdrop that all nations, like our region, when hosting large or vulnerable gatherings, make an extra effort in national security preparations and response readiness to take seriously, all threats, expressed or implied.”Given the fact that bad actors can choose to misbehave in any way possible it makes it virtually impossible to completely seal off all opportunities.”However, in order to ameliorate these dangers, we at the local and regional levels have remained alert to many threats and singularly or together have our intelligence and other security agencies working to protect the population in countries and at venues throughout the tournament.”The ICC and CWI responded with a joint statement assuring stakeholders of the security measures in place.”We work closely with authorities in the host countries and cities, and continually monitor and evaluate the global landscape to ensure appropriate plans are in place to mitigate any risks identified to our event,” the statement said. “We want to assure all stakeholders that safety and security of everyone at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup is our number one priority and we have a comprehensive and robust security plan in place.”The 20-team T20 World Cup will be played in nine venues, six of them in the West Indies and three in the USA. The tournament runs from June 1 to 29, with Barbados scheduled to host the final.

Arsenal’s preparations for the upcoming season have been significantly bolstered by the return of key defenders Gabriel Magalhaes and Jurrien Timber to full training. The duo were spotted taking part in sessions ahead of the Gunners’ upcoming friendly clash against Villarreal and they are now in line to feature in the club's Premier League opener against Manchester United.

Gabriel & Timber return to full trainingPrimed to feature against the Red DevilsMadueke & Kepa are also back on the grassFollow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱WHAT HAPPENED?

Neither Gabriel nor Timber made an appearance during Arsenal’s recent tour of Asia. The Brazilian underwent a hamstring operation in April and only recently managed 45 minutes of action in a closed-door fixture against Watford. Unfortunately, a minor issue picked up during training halted his momentum, keeping him out since then.

Timber, on the other hand, has been carefully managed since undergoing surgery in May to address an ankle problem. Though he travelled with the squad throughout the pre-season tour, the Dutch defender was not risked in any of the matches, instead gradually building up fitness under the supervision of Arsenal’s medical team.

According to the both players have now resumed training, and there is cautious optimism in the Gunners' camp that they will be available for the upcoming friendly against Villarreal. Mikel Arteta previously indicated his belief that both Gabriel and Timber could be ready in time for the Premier League opener against the Red Devils, and the sight of both defenders participating in training at London Colney will come as a welcome relief for the Spaniard.

In more encouraging news for Arsenal fans, new goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga has also resumed training. The Spaniard, who was unavailable during last week’s defeat to Tottenham due to a minor knock, is expected to be back in contention for the Villarreal match. Meanwhile, fellow summer recruit Noni Madueke could be set for his first appearance in an Arsenal shirt. The winger, who arrived from Chelsea, has been training since last week after cutting his holiday short to acclimate quickly with his new team-mates and surroundings.

Barcelona’s standoff with Marc-Andre ter Stegen deepens as La Liga refuse to review his injury report without the German goalkeeper’s consent.

• La Liga needs Ter Stegen’s signature
• Barcelona claim legal "loopholes" exist
• Issue impacts Joan Garcia’s registration

• WHAT HAPPENED?

  According to , Barcelona and Ter Stegen are embroiled in a tense dispute over his injury report. The German goalkeeper has refused to sign the consent form that would allow his medical file to be shared with La Liga’s medical committee. Without his signature, the league cannot officially classify the injury as long-term. This classification is crucial for Barca, as it would free up 80 per cent of his salary and allow them to register Joan Garcia and Marcus Rashford.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  The Blaugrana club argue that exceptions exist in data legislation, allowing them to share the report without his approval for employment-related purposes. They also claim Ter Stegen’s refusal is harming the club financially and structurally. La Liga, however, insists on player consent, with Dr. Jordi Ardevol stating: "The player's consent is essential in the document for medical data to be processed outside the club."

• DID YOU KNOW?

  The 34-year-old's refusal came as a shock to Barcelona’s squad during their return from South Korea. Joan Laporta had earlier admitted that the “most direct” way to register new signings was to use Ter Stegen’s long-term injury, but the goalkeeper declined. As a result, his decision could lead to disciplinary action and potential legal proceedings from the club.

  WHAT NEXT FOR TER STEGEN AND BARCELONA?

  The Catalan giants have abandoned plans for a face-to-face meeting and are preparing disciplinary measures, reports. Legal services have been instructed to explore sanctions, while the club still hopes to find a way possibly through legal loopholes to submit the report. For now, tension remains high between the captain and the board, and the situation could escalate further in the coming days.

نجح نادي برشلونة في تسجيل أحد لاعبيه قبل ساعات من خوض مباراته في بطولة الدوري الإسباني لكرة القدم، ضد خصمه رايو فاليكانو، مساء يوم الأحد.

ويلتقي برشلونة مع رايو فاليكانو، في الجولة الثالثة من الدوري الإسباني موسم 2025/26، ضد رايو فاليكانو.

ويمتلك برشلونة 6 نقاط، بعدما حقق فوزًا في الجولتين الأولى والثانية ضد كل من مايوركا وليفانتي، بنتيجة 3/0 و3/2، على الترتيب.

من جهة أخرى، ذكرت صحيفة “موندو ديبورتيفو” الإسبانية أنه قد تم تسجيل حارس مرمى فريق برشلونة، فويتشيك تشيزني، لدى الدوري الإسباني، وسيكون متاحًا للمشاركة ضد فاليكانو غدًا.

ولم يكن تشيزني جزءًا من قائمة برشلونة في الجولتين الماضيتين، حيث لم يتمكن النادي من تسجيله، قبل أن يرحل إيناكي بينيا إلى إلتشي، حيث أتاح ذلك مساحة كافية للبولندي لإتمام تلك الخطوة بنجاح.

وأفادت أنه يتبقى الآن أن يحل برشلونة مسألة تسجيل روني باردجي، حيث ينتظر إنهاء عقد أوريول روميرو، قبل عام من نهاية صفقته، ورحيل هيكتور فورت الذي يقترب من مايوركا على سبيل الإعارة.

وكان برشلونة يستطيع تسجيل باردجي في صفوف فريق الرديف، ولكنه فضّل الانتظار من أجل تسجيله مع الفريق الأول، لتجنب أي مشاكل محتملة مع رابطة الدوري الإسباني.

الجدير بالذكر أن برشلونة نجح في تسجيل جيرارد مارتن، أمس الجمعة، مع العلم إنه سجل ماركوس راشفورد وخوان جارسيا قبل ساعات من خوض مباراته الأولى في موسم الليجا.

Hugo Ekitike has made a blistering start to his Liverpool career and excited the Reds faithful with a curling effort into the bottom corner on his debut.

Ekitike scores early into competitive debutNew signing puts Reds 1-0 up against PalaceAlexader Isak rumours persistFollow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱WHAT HAPPENED?

The Frenchman picked up the ball from Florian Wirtz on the edge of the Crystal Palace area and curled a low effort from the top of the box into the bottom right corner, beyond the reach of Dean Henderson. With his first shot in English football and just 228 seconds into his debut, as per Opta, Ekitike had put Liverpool 1-0 up in the Community Shield. It was a dream start for the new £79 million ($107m) striker who joined this summer from Eintracht Frankfurt and will have been hoping to make a scoring start to his time at his new club. It was an effort worthy of sending the Reds fans into hysteria.

AdvertisementGetty Images SportWHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING

On X, Ben Mattinson declared the striker as "the real deal", saying: "I tried to tell people."

Antonio Mango said: "Even putting Goals and Assists aside, Hugo Ekitike will be unreal for Liverpool. What a talented guy."

@umirf1 tweeted: "Remember all that Ekitike’s xG underperformance talk. I tried to tell you why it was a farce when contextualised. Ridiculous footballer."

Dougie Critchley was envious of Liverpool fans. He said: "That must be any Liverpool fan’s dream… A Wirtz and Ekitike link-up, beautiful finish… Unreal goal."

Lewis Steele considered how Ekitike has improved upon an already talented frontline, saying: "Hugo Ekitike with a goal to show why Liverpool paid so much money for him. Neat footwork in a tight area and a beautiful finish. Extremely early days but that is a very well taken strike and, you have to say, Darwin Nunez would have never scored a goal like that."

THE BIGGER PICTURE

With talk of Alexander Isak joining Liverpool and likely taking the starting number nine spot, Ekitike is laying down his mark in the middle of the Liverpool attack. The Frenchman could not have made a better start to his time at the club, helping them to an early 1-0 lead. Liverpool were later pegged back when fellow French striker Jean-Phillipe Mateta equalised from the spot before Jeremie Frimpong also scored on his debut to restore the Reds' lead.
