Politics in team not to be put up with: Afridi
LAHORE: Pakistan cricket team captain, Shahid Afridi has said he has made it clear to Shoaib Akhtar and Shahid Afidi that he will not tolerate any attempt to spoil the atmosphere of the dressing room while coach Waqar Younis said the players were kept away from media to avert disputes.
At a press conference in Gadafi Stadium here, Waqar Younis had to face some tough questions but he replied to them in a calm and composed manner.
He said the players are responsible for when they come and what they do but as far as their accommodation is concerned the it is the board’s responsibility. “What the players do at night is certainly not my responsibility,” he asserted.
Waqar Younis said the damage caused to the team over the past two-three months is much more compared to what the team lost during the last 20 years.
Shahid Afridi also answered to the piercing questions in a confident manner. He also appeared unhappy with the role of the media. He reiterated that he would not tolerate any attempt aimed at spoiling the atmosphere of the dressing room. “I have made it clear to Shoaib Akhter that the atmosphere of the dressing room is no longer they way it used to be,” he said.
Waqar Younis said Younis and Shoaib are big players but he sees the new players as the beacon of Pakistan’s future.
Sri Lanka overwhelm Zimbabwe to win TNT
HARARE: A dominant Sri Lanka came to within a freak run-out of whitewashing Zimbabwe in the final of the Tri-nations tournament at Harare Sports Club here on Wednesday.
The Sri Lankans scored a leisurely 203-1 in 34.4 overs to win with ease in reply to Zimbabwe”s effort of 199 all out in 49 overs.
The run-out stood between Sri Lanka bowling out the entire Zimbabwe team and then overtaking their target score without the loss of a single wicket.
Although Zimbabwe”s Brendan Taylor was named man of the series afterwards it was Tillikeratne Dilshan who stole the day.
He was named man of the match after amassing 108 not out, both for his score and for his captaincy, with his 100 coming up in 97 balls and including 13 boundaries.
It was Dilshan”s seventh one-day international century and his first against Zimbabwe. “I was really elated, both for the 100 and for our series victory to take home after a hard time abroad,” he said.
“We brought several youngsters with us for experience and they certainly benefitted. It was all well worthwhile.”
The run-out came with the score on 160 — Sri Lanka”s highest opening partnership against Zimbabwe in internationals.
Dilshan went for a quick single to Graeme Cremer at point, but when his wicket was about to be broken he kept going and fellow opener Upul Tharanga moved forward from the other end to sacrifice his wicket.
Tharanga produced another of his speciality supporting roles with 72 runs.
The match was killed as a potential spectacle after just a few overs of the Zimbabwe innings.
The home team prodded their way to 15-1 in seven overs and to 40-2 in 15. By comparison, Sri Lanka were 46-0 in seven and 88-0 in 15.
Tatenda Taibu was initially a culprit with only four runs from his first 22 balls faced, but he redeemed himself by becoming easily Zimbabwe”s top scorer with 71.
Their meagre 199 runs was soon overwhelmed by Dilshan and Tharanga, who gobbled up the Zimbabwe bowling with ease, if not quite disdain.
Wicketkeeper Brendan Taylor said at the presentations: “We actually worked very hard just to get here. Everybody did well in the series and we expect to move forward step by step from here.”
Home team captain Elton Chigumbura said: “We were put under pressure right from the start and just couldn”t get going early on. But we take a lot of pluses from the last two weeks.”
India, the other team in the Tri-nation series, will play Zimbabwe in two Twenty20 matches this weekend and on Thursday a game has been arranged for them against Zimbabwe A.
