PAK vs Ban: Update | Continuous rain, Pakistan-Bangladesh move towards 2nd Test draw | 07th Dec 2021
PAK vs Ban: Latest Update | Continuous rain, Pakistan-Bangladesh move towards second Test draw | 07th December 2021 | Dhaka Test | Babar Azam | Azhar Ali DHAKA: Persistent rains forced umpires to call off play on day three of the second Test between Pakistan and Bangladesh without a ball being bowled in Dhaka. Day three is now scheduled to start at 9:30 am (Bangladesh time). As many as 98 overs will be bowled tomorrow (Tuesday). Earlier, both the teams had been directed to stay at the hotel as the rain continued to pour in Dhaka. The second day was also called off early due to incessant rains as only 38 balls’ play was possible. On Sunday, Pakistan added 27 runs to their overnight score to reach 188 for two against Bangladesh at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur. After there was no play in the first session on the second day, play resumed following an early lunch and Pakistan began confidently and convincingly before rain halted play after 6.2 overs. Shortly before rain ended the second day’s play, Azhar Ali hit back to back boundaries off Ebadot Hossain to complete his 34th 50 in his 91st Test. When day’s play was finally called off, Azhar was batting on 52 after beginning the day at 36. Babar Azam, who was 60 overnight in Pakistan’s 161 for two, had started impressively with a boundary off the first ball of the day and was still at the crease on 71 with eight fours and a six. The two batters have so far added 118 runs for the unfinished third wicket partnership. Scores in brief (2nd Test, day 2 of 5): Pakistan 188-2, 63.2 overs (Babar Azam 71 not out, Azhar Ali 52 not out, Abid Ali 39, Abdullah Shafique 25, Taijul Islam 2-49) v Bangladesh For More Videos Subscribe - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCF73oBsmZPG6YRZV-vVN1-A Visit our Website for More Latest Update - https://www.geosuper.tv #GeoSuper #T20WorldCup #PAKvsBAN
Jersey Reds tries v Ealing Trailfinders
Ealing Trailfinders 35 Jersey Reds 29 Jersey Reds stood toe-to-toe with a powerful Ealing side and claimed a deserved brace of bonus points thanks to a late try. The visitors, who made the trip to west London as a day-trip, expected a tough afternoon against the Championship-leading hosts, who are favourites for promotion and had not lost a league match to any of their current Championship rivals since the defeat to Cornish Pirates in December 2016. After fly-half Sam Leeming gave the Reds an early lead, his opposite number Steve Shingler crossed for the opening try and added a conversion. The visitors were looking dangerous in attack and a run from Ryan Olowofela could have led to a try for fellow winger Will Brown, but the pass could not be completed. Sadly Olowofela was injured and had to withdraw from the fray, with Harry Simmons coming on. Showing an ability to trouble the home side and force penalty concessions, the Reds worked their way into scoring positions and claimed two tries in four minutes, firstly when Lewis Wynne darted over and then with a powerful close-range burst by Steve Longwell. It looked as if a useful eight-point lead might be maintained until the break, but in fact the Trailfinders struck late on – Shingler kicked through and when Brendan Owen couldn’t deal with the bouncing ball Luke Daniels was in position to claim a try. With some assistance from the wind after the game resumed, Ealing took the lead when Shaun Malton steered a maul over the line, but the Reds soon responded in kind – this time it was a penalty try and Malton was dispatched to the sin-bin, making it 21-22 with 25 minutes to play. The Reds might have stretched their lead during a phase of attack, but an interception saw Simon Uzokwe race 50 metres for a try that signaled a real change of momentum. The visitors, who had emptied their bench prior to the hour mark, were battling to stay in the game and lost replacement Alex Humfrey to the sin-bin after a series of penalties brought a warning from ‘Sir’ about persistent offence. Soon afterwards scrum-half Craig Hampson worked his way over and a 13-point lead for the hosts was the biggest gap between the sides all afternoon. To their credit the Reds stayed in the contest and soon after Humfrey’s return they got into good field position and Eoghan Clarke finished off a rolling maul. This fourth try earned a bonus point, and a well-struck conversion from Tom Pittman secured another as it narrowed the deficit to six points. This weekend’s results leave the Reds in third place, six points behind Ealing and just three behind Cornish Pirates, who came from behind to beat Bedford 39-24 at the Mennaye. This sets up a tasty encounter at Stade Santander International next Saturday (2.15 k-o) when the Reds will host the Pirates.

THE NABILA SHOW: SOUTH AFRICA MATCH-FIXING AND MANIPULATION ALLEGATION EXPLAINED
Ghana Football Association (GFA) has released a statement to disprove the allegations made by the South Africa Football Association (SAFA). SAFA on Wednesday, November 17, held a press conference to detail their observations from their final group game against Ghana in the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. Despite Ghana progressing to the play-off round of the qualifiers, South Africa have been persistent with their efforts to downplay the integrity of the match. Before the game at Cape Coast, there were various stories about how South Africa team was made to travel for nine hours from Accra to Cape Coast. I have had mixed reactions and feedback on why FIFA could order a replay of World Cup qualifier. Many have said South Africa won't get the evidence to their claims. I say, FIFA did not ask Senegal to provide them stats of J.O Lamptey's officiating record. Sports radar, FIFA EWS, commissioning of top 14 or 15 referees from Africa, did come from Senegal. Engaging a Prof from Scotland in their investigation of the matter did not come from Senegal. FIFA will find a way of establishing South Africa's allegations. They won't rely on only evidence provided by SAFA. If they find nothing, they will throw it out. Just remain open-minded about what the outcome could be.
Lonzo Ball Catches Fire, Bulls Topple Mavericks For 8-3 Record
On today's episode, Matt breaks down the Bulls 117-107 win over Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks. Lonzo Ball got off to a scorching start on his way to 21 points on 7-10 shooting from downtown, and his proving he's comfortable pulling up off the dribble as well as in catch-and-shoot scenarios. He also had his full-court passing skills on full display, leading to easy buckets and dazzling dunks by Zach LaVine. Nikola Vucevic also had a strong game as he continues to work his way out of the shooting slump, and got his night started by attacking inside. Matt also talks about the Bulls' poor response to Dallas going to the zone defense, and whether or not that problem will persist if they see more zone going forward. Lastly, Matt touches on the latest update on Coby White, who could return from his shoulder injury during the upcoming 5-game road trip. How will Billy Donovan work him back into the rotation, and will Donovan still stagger a starter with the second unit if he goes to a full 10-man rotation?
