The Tricky Trees are hit with fresh injuries to Chris Wood, Serge Aurier, Andre Ayew and Gustavo Scarpa during the international break, with Wood ruled out for the rest of the season with a thigh problem.

Furthermore, Brennan Johnson and Wayne Hennessey are doubtful after picking up knocks on Wales duty, and Ryan Yates injured his shoulder against Newcastle.

Taiwo Awoniyi and Cheikhou Kouyate have returned to full training, with Scott McKenna also close to returning to the pitch, but Dean Henderson, Giulian Biancone, Omar Richards and Willy Boly are still sidelined.

As such, the likes of Neco Williams, Remo Freuler, Jesse Lingard and Sam Surridge will expect to be in the XI against Wolves.

Sasa Kalajdzic, Chiquinho and Hwang Hee-chan are sidelined with injuries, while Hugo Bueno is doubtful due to a hamstring problem.

Jonny has been slapped with a three-game ban after his red card against Leeds, while a similar punishment has been lifted from Matheus Nunes by the FA – meaning the midfielder is available for selection on Saturday.

Expect Rayan Ait-Nouri to slot in for Jonny at left-back.

Boubacar Traore has recovered from a muscle injury and made a couple of substitute appearances for Mali, while Matheus Cunha will be pushing for a start after scoring off the bench last time out.

Fidel Edwards has suffered a fractured right ankle after injuring himself in warm-ups ahead of the final day of Hampshire’s County Championship match against Yorkshire at Headingley

ESPNcricinfo staff21-Apr-2016Fidel Edwards has suffered a fractured right ankle after injuring himself during a football game in warm-ups ahead of the final day of Hampshire’s County Championship match against Yorkshire at Headingley.Edwards will see a specialist on Thursday which will give a clearer idea of the length of time he faces on the sidelines but he is set to miss a considerable chunk of the season.On Thursday morning he posted Instagram photos of him in hospital in Leeds and said: “I broke my leg,” before thanking doctors for their help.Hampshire had been evasive on Wednesday when asked to confirm that Edwards had joined a long list of county cricketers over the years to be injured in a football kickabout, preferring to call it a “running injury – not a football injury”.Dale Benkenstein, Hampshire’s coach, was more forthcoming. “We were only 45 seconds away from the end of the game when Fidel went to kick the ball,” he told “I was just about to get the mitts on for fielding practice when his foot got stuck in the turf and all his weight went over on it. There was no-one near him, it was a really freakish fall and there was a loud crack.”Hampshire have suffered an extensive early-season injury list and will have to explore the loan market for extra resources. Reece Topley suffered a broken hand in the opening match of the season against Warwickshire, Chris Wood suffered a knee injury in the first innings against Yorkshire (although he was able to bowl in the second) and Liam Dawson picked up an abdominal strain in the same match.Despite their injury woes, however, Hampshire have secured battling draws in their opening two Championship matches of the season. Against Yorkshire, they showed considerable resolve to save the follow-on having conceded 593.They also face the prospect of losing James Vince next month with him being heavily tipped for a place in England’s middle order against Sri Lanka.

Suzie Bates’ swift 60-ball 82 and her 104-run partnership with Sophie Devine for the second wicket set the base for New Zealand Women’s massive 93-run win over Ireland Women in the World T20 match in Mohali

ESPNcricinfo staff18-Mar-2016
ScorecardSuzie Bates’ swift 60-ball 82 and her 104-run partnership with Sophie Devine for the second wicket set the base for New Zealand Women’s massive 93-run win over Ireland Women in the World T20 match in Mohali.New Zealand got off to a blistering start after opting to bat, as opener Rachel Priest struck three fours in the first over before falling to medium-pacer Amy Kenealy in the second over. The wicket brought Bates and Devine together at the crease, and the pair built on the early momentum in their century stand. By the end of the Powerplay, New Zealand were 48 for 1 and except for a couple of quiet overs, the pair found the boundary with ease. Devine fell in the 15th over to Isobel Joyce, after a 34-ball 47, and Bates then propelled the score past 150. The New Zealand captain struck two successive sixes off Kim Garth in the penultimate over before falling for 82; her knock also included seven fours. She became the fourth player to score more than 2000 runs in women’s T20I cricket and is second on the list of highest run-getters with 2063 runs, ahead of Sarah Taylor and Stafanie Taylor.Ireland’s chase simply failed to get off the blocks. They lost two wickets within the first four overs for a score of 16 and by the tenth over had reached only 34 for 3. The required run rate was already more than 14 by that stage and it was only Joyce who showed some resistance with a 33-ball 28, the top score in an Ireland innings that eventually petered out to 84 for 5. Offspinner Leigh Kasperek had economical returns of 1-10 in her four overs while legspinner Erin Bermingham took 2 for 17.

Dubbed MSN's football "beautiful"Admitted that Barcelona have "changed a lot" without Leo MessiPreviewed Atletico Madrid's fixture with BarcaWHAT HAPPENED?

Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar starred for the Blaugrana from 2014-2015, winning the treble in the 2014-15 season and establishing themselves as one of the best attacking trios in Europe. And Oblak conceded that Barca side was the most difficult to play against.

In a press conference before Atleti's La Liga clash with Barca this Sunday, Oblak spoke candidly about his toughest Catalunyan opponents: "But I think the Barca that played the most beautiful football was the Barca from 2015 or 2016. Well it doesn’t mean they weren’t performing very well in other seasons of course, but the strongest Barca since I arrived here in La Liga was in the first three years or so when I started to play at Atletico Madrid."

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Oblak has been the first choice keeper for Atleti since 2014, winning the La Liga goalkeeper of the year three times, and winning the league in 2020-21 season.

Atleti face a crucial fixture against Barca on Sunday. The Rojiblancos are currently four points behind leaders Girona, but have a game in hand. A win would keep them in the title race, and also damage the Blaugrana's hopes of defending their La Liga crown.

Steve Davis has announced his retirement after the five-match ODI series between England and New Zealand in June

ESPNcricinfo staff02-Jun-2015Umpire Steve Davis has announced his retirement after the five-match ODI series between England and New Zealand in June.”It has been a difficult but considered decision,” he said. “I have had a marvellous 25-year career during which I worked with some of the best umpires and match referees.”Davis, 63, made his international debut as an umpire in an ODI between Pakistan and West Indies in 1992. He officiated in his first Test five years later, when Australia met New Zealand in Hobart. Overall, he’s worked in 57 Tests, 135 ODIs and 26 T20Is.”I have made many lasting friendships all around the world, both on and off the field, which I will treasure forever,” Davis said. “I also take this opportunity to thank Cricket Australia and the ICC for their support and the opportunities they have given me. And as much as anyone, I thank my wife Annie and our families for their encouragement and support over the years.”Cricket Australia CEO James Sutherland congratulated Davis for his contribution to the game. “As one of Australia’s leading officials, Steve’s achievements have been significant during his 25 years on the field spanning 57 Tests and several World Cups,” Sutherland said in a statement.”Steve leaves the game with the respect of the international cricketing community and is held in high regard by match officials and players alike. The leadership Steve has shown during his time on the ICC’s Elite Panel is a credit to him and we thank him for his outstanding contribution to the game.”Davis was selected for the International Panel of ICC Umpires in 2002, and was promoted to the Elite Panel in 2008. He has also been part of three World Cups since 2007, five World T20s and two Champions Trophies as well.

Lionel Messi and Inter Miami’s “old” squad will be “lucky to win one trophy” in 2024, says Taylor Twellman, with a quadruple bid being ruled out.

Veteran superstars at DRV PNK StadiumFour trophies to chase down in 2024Questions asked of durability in FloridaWHAT HAPPENED?

The Herons have acquired a number of former Barcelona stars, with Messi being joined in Florida by Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba and Luis Suarez. They boast vast experience and countless trophy triumphs between them, but are all into their mid-30s.

AdvertisementGettyTHE BIGGER PICTURE

That could work against Inter Miami as they prepare for a gruelling MLS campaign that will also deliver shots at a second Leagues Cup crown, CONCACAF Champions Cup glory and a U.S. Open Cup triumph. Those at DRV PNK Stadium have been talking up a clean sweep of major honours.

WHAT TWELLMAN SAID ABOUT INTER MIAMI

Twellman is not convinced that things will play out as planned, with the former USMNT star telling : “I can’t believe everyone and their mother has them as title contenders for four trophies. I don’t see it. I look at MLS history and the way the league is built on parity and I get it – Alba, Busquets, Suarez and Messi, but those are older players without a ton of tread left on those tyres. From what I’ve seen of Suarez, he has been offside 21 times in his first four games for Inter Miami. There is not continuity in the final third. A lot of people are saying ‘they're going to set a record, they’re going to win the Supporters’ Shield’. Let’s see, I think they are up against it.

“I think [Facundo] Farias ACL injury has made things real difficult. [Benjamin] Cremaschi has got a sport’s hernia that he’s going to have to deal with. The rumours that they are going to bring in [Federico] Redondo, if they do then they have to get rid of two players – is that [Robert] Taylor, is it [Serhiy] Kryvtsov, is it [DeAndre] Yedlin? Because of the salary cap and the way that they are trying to build this roster, you are relying on four old players and the X-factor being the 37-year-old Luis Suarez – who from all accounts can’t train four days in a row without having his knee balloon up. He had 43 goal contributions in Brazil. I don’t think the Brazilian Serie league is really good in defending. He’s going to come to this league and he’s going to come into this climate, with the time zones and the travel. I think they are up against it. I think they are lucky if they win one trophy.”

Getty ImagesDID YOU KNOW?

Twellman went on to say, with there enough quality at Inter Miami's disposal to suggest that they will be competitive if key men can stay fit: “In saying that, when Messi says he wants to come, when Suarez says he wants to come, when Busquets wants to come – these are generational type players that con still contribute on some level. I just think the bigger debate is that you put four in one team, does it really work?”

Fans of rival clubs believe that the Red Devils have benefited from preferential treatment this season, so Goal has reviewed all 19 of their penalties

Not since the days of Sir Alex Ferguson have we heard so much talk about Manchester United getting preferential treatment off referees.

Social media has been running wild with talk of 'VARchester United' and 'Man Utd Penalty Bingo' because of how many spot-kicks Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side have been awarded this season.

However, even Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has voiced his concern over the number of decisions that seem to be going United's way.

But are United really receiving help from the officials?

Below, we review all 19 penalties awarded to the Red Devils this season to see whether there's anything to these conspiracy theories…

Getty1FA Cup: Man Utd 1-3 Chelsea

Callum Hudson-Odoi blatantly tripped Martial as United tried in vain to get themselves back into the semi-final showdown at Wembley.  Fernandes fired home but it was little more than a consolation goal for United as their hopes of FA Cup glory went up in smoke.

Verdict: PENALTY!

AdvertisementGetty2Premier League MD34: Aston Villa 0-3 Man Utd

The most controversial decision of the season? It was certainly a historic one, as United equalled the record for most penalties received in a single Premier League season (13). Jon Moss pointed to the spot after Fernandes had been upended by Ezri Konsa in the area. However, on closer inspection, it emerged that the attacking midfielder had actually initiated the contact. However, VAR inexplicably agreed with Moss, clearing the way for Fernandes to open the scoring. Villa boss Dean Smith called it a "disgraceful" decision and his fury was understandable.

Verdict: NO PENALTY!

Getty Images3Premier League MD33: Man Utd 5-2 Bournemouth

The game at Old Trafford was tied at one goal apiece when Mike Dean pointed to the spot in the 35th minute, after noticing an Adam Smith handball. Rashford took care of the rest as United went on to record an impressive victory.

Verdict: PENALTY!

Getty4Premier League MD30: Tottenham 1-1 Man Utd

Eric Dier was bamboozled by Paul Pogba's neat footwork and bundled the Frenchman over in the box. Fernandes scored from the spot to salvage a point for United.

Verdict: PENALTY!

N.B. Jon Moss awarded United a penalty in the dying minutes for another perceived foul on Pogba by Dier but the referee was correctly overruled by VAR.

Australia are hopeful a well-grassed Adelaide Oval pitch will provide enough assistance for the hosts’ fast bowlers to dismantle Pakistan and thus prevent their own strong pace battery from doing likewise in the third World Cup quarter-final

Daniel Brettig in Adelaide19-Mar-2015Australia are hopeful a well-grassed Adelaide Oval pitch will provide enough assistance for the hosts’ fast bowlers to dismantle Pakistan and thus prevent their own strong pace battery from doing likewise in the third World Cup quarter-final.The captain Michael Clarke and the national selector Rod Marsh were seen in lengthy consultation with the oval groundsman Damian Hough on match eve, Clarke having already expressed his hope that no more grass would be shaved from the surface ahead of Friday’s contest. Ground staff also watered the pitches either side of the match strip, reducing the chances of reverse-swing emanating from the abrasive parts of the square.With the possible exception of New Zealand and South Africa, the match will be a meeting of the World Cup’s two strongest fast-bowling units. Australia will choose one of Pat Cummins or Josh Hazlewood to support Mitchell Starc and Mitchell Johnson, while Pakistan have the tournament’s fast bowler in Wahab Riaz, backed up by Sohail Khan, Rahat Ali and Ehsan Adil. Batsmen on both sides may be in for some hopping around.”Pakistan have some really good quicks in their attack and they’ve shown that throughout this series,” Clarke said. “I think the pitch has certainly got quicker over the years. I think fast bowling will play a big part tomorrow. Especially if they leave that grass on the wicket like there is now, fingers crossed. But I think both teams have good fast bowlers in their line-ups. So the batters, we’re going to have to make sure we play really well.”Two good attacks on a wicket that looks like it’s got a bit of grass on it. It’s going to be tough for the batters but Australia in general. If you do get in as a batsman it’s a wonderful place to bat, it’s just starting your innings is always difficult. I don’t care if it’s 71 plays 70 to be honest, as long as we get the 71, or it’s 350 plays 349, the numbers are irrelevant for me.”Pakistan’s captain Misbah-ul-Haq has preached aggression ever since his side’s surprise success against South Africa in Auckland, and he said this would be particularly important against Australia. As England might also be able to attest, it is impossible to just muddle through and play reactively against the team led by Clarke and the coach Darren Lehmann – they must be attacked.”Australia always plays aggressive cricket, and if you want to really be up there against them, you also need a good, aggressive cricket, good, positive cricket, and that is the key,” Misbah said. “If two teams are playing aggressive cricket, you still have a chance. It’s not like that you go with the defensive approach against Australia and you can just win the game. It’s all about aggression. It’s all about attacking cricket, and that’s, I think, what we are looking forward to.”Clarke shuffled Australia’s batting order in their final group game against Scotland to allow himself and several other players some additional time in the middle. For this match it is expected to be back to the configuration glimpsed against Sri Lanka at the SCG, with David Warner and Aaron Finch followed by Steven Smith and Clarke before Glenn Maxwell and Shane Watson are used at Nos. 5 or 6 depending on the match scenario.”Finchy and Davey will go back to opening, and then we’ll assess,” Clarke said. “I think against Sri Lanka … Maxi came in at 5, but he was down to bat at 6. It was just the situation of the game that we changed the order. I think our order is pretty flexible, so, like I said, apart from the top two that will open the batting and have done so really throughout the whole tournament apart from one game to try to give a few people a hit, the rest is very flexible.”We’ll work out the situation of the game, batting first, batting second and assess. And I think that’s one of our great strengths that we’ve got a number of guys that have batted in different positions through their career and have enjoyed some success in different positions as well. So it’s a good problem to have.”Less pleasing for Australia is the thought of elimination from their home World Cup at the earliest knockout stage. To lose to Pakistan in Adelaide would be more or less the equivalent result to 1992, when they missed the semi-finals due largely to a defeat at the hands of Imran Khan’s men in Perth. Clarke put himself through an extended fielding and catching session after his chat with Marsh, having earlier acknowledged the gravity of the occasion.”We have to treat this like a World Cup final now,” he said. “It’s a crucial game – you lose and you are sitting and watching the rest of the tournament, so we’re just focused on having success tomorrow.”

Fast bowler Umaid Asif has been banned for one year by the Pakistan Cricket Board’s anti-doping tribunal after testing positive for a prohibited substance

ESPNcricinfo staff15-Oct-2014Fast bowler Umaid Asif has been banned for one year by the Pakistan Cricket Board’s anti-doping tribunal after testing positive for a prohibited substance. The ban has been deemed to have commenced from January 23.According to a PCB release, Umaid’s urine sample was collected on November 29 in Lahore last year when he was representing Khan Research Laboratories against State Bank of Pakistan in the Faysal Bank T-20 Cup. The sample was forwarded to National Dope Testing Laboratory in New Delhi which gave an adverse analytical finding for substances prednisolone and prednisone, both of which fall under category S9. Glucocorticosteroids in the 2013 WADA Prohibited ListAccordingly, Umaid was issued a notice of charge by the PCB on March 25 wherein he was provisionally suspended from participating in any form of cricket pending the proceedings of the anti-doping tribunal, which comprised Shahid Karim, advocate Supreme Court, Wasim Bari, and Dr. Ucksy Mallick.After conducting personal hearings, the tribunal found Umaid guilty of violating article 2.1 of the PCB’s anti-doping code (presence of a prohibited substance or its metabolites or markers in a cricketer’s sample).Umaid’s individual performances in the 2013 Faysal Bank T-20 Cup will be disqualified.
