Afridi
Afridi promoted as captain pakistan again
Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi has expressed his interest in
captaining the national team once again, who led Pakistan in the last World Cup, is said to be a top candidate
to get the captaincy again of the ODI side for the forthcoming series
against South Africa in the UAE after sources hinted that the Pakistan
Cricket Board (PCB) had decided to relieve current skipper Misbah-ul Haq
of the duties
Misbah and Dav Whatmore will continue as captain and head coach for the
Tests respectively, Afridi will be brought in as ODI captain while
Mohammad Hafeez will continue to lead the T20 outfit, given that there
is little time before the Proteas series and the Test matches are played
before the limited over games.

Guilty Sreesanth banned for life
Guilty Sreesanth banned for life
Test fast bowler Shanthakumaran Sreesanth and three other players have been found guilty of spot-fixing during the Indian Premier League by an internal probe conducted by the national cricket board, a report said on Friday.
The probe by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)'s anti-corruption chief Ravi Sawani, also found two other players guilty of not reporting approaches made by bookmakers, The Indian Express said.
Sreesanth, Ajit Chandila and Ankeet Chavan were found guilty on multiple accounts, including conceding a "pre-determined number of runs per over in exchange for bribes", the paper quoted the leaked report as saying.
The fourth player, Amit Singh, who played in the IPL till last year, was seen as the conduit between the cricketers and bookies, and described by Sawani as "the bad fish that spoils the entire pond".
Siddharth Trivedi and 21-year-old Harmeet Singh were absolved of spot-fixing, but were found guilty of the lesser charge of not informing officials about approaches made by bookmakers, the newspaper said.
Sawani, whose report will be placed before the BCCI's disciplinary committee, has recommended the players be banned for a period ranging from five years to life, the paper said.
"The disciplinary committee may consider my report and impose such sanctions as considered appropriate to send out a strong signal indicating the zero tolerance policy of the BCCI to any corruption in the sport that is so dear to millions of Indians and fans abroad," the paper quoted Sawani as saying in the report.
"Obviously, the anti-corruption education given to the players had no impact on the conduct. Therefore, the players deserve no leniency whatsoever."
A BCCI spokesman declined to comment on the leaked newspaper story, saying Sawani's findings would be discussed by the disciplinary committee and may be placed before the board's annual general meeting on September 29.
