32 h. ago Rise of Alex Scott from ‘Guernsey Grealish’ to Tuchel’s squad – and he’s not first of his family to play for England

THOMAS TUCHEL may have overlooked Jack Grealish once again but he has handed a shock call-up to another twinkle-toed, Alice band-loving midfielder. Alex Scott was dubbed ‘the Guernsey Grealish’ at Bristol City, owing to his similar playing style and the Channel Island he calls home. Grealish even called Scott a “top, top talent” when he...

7 d. ago Brendon McCullum confident England can throw off batting blues for Ashes

Smith, Duckett and Root all fail again in New Zealand loss‘In Tests we have a pretty decent idea of where we’re at’Brendon McCullum has predicted England’s batters will have no trouble shaking off the woes that have dogged their white-ball tour of New Zealand in time for the AshesTheir top order crumbled yet again on the way to a third successive defeat in Wellington on Saturday and several key members of the Test squad, including Jamie Smith, Ben Duckett and Joe Root, have struggled badly in recent one-day internationals. But the team’s head coach believes their troubles are limited to the 50-over format.“It’s a different form of the game and it’s a completely different kind of challenge that we’re going to be confronted with,” he said. “Sometimes the process you go through in regards to batting doesn’t necessarily translate to runs, but the game can come in time. That’s what we’re holding on to, anyway. Continue reading...

1 week ago England batting woes continue as New Zealand seal ODI series victory

2nd ODI: New Zealand, 177-5, bt England, 175, by five wktsDaryl Mitchell hits 56no while Jofra Archer fires on returnHalf-centuries from Rachin Ravindra and Daryl Mitchell carried New Zealand to a second one-sided victory against an England side still searching for a winning formula in the 50-over format. This loss added another track to their rotten recent record: a ninth consecutive away defeat in ODIs and a 10th in 11 games on their travels in the last 12 months, while also ensuring a sixth series defeat in their last seven attempts.Against a New Zealand side without their premium fast bowler, Matt Henry, who was diagnosed with a calf injury on the morning of the match, England were dismissed for just 175, leaving 14 overs unused and presenting their opponents with not so much a challenge as a stroll. After again losing the toss the tourists’ top-order again misfired, with Jamie Overton coming in at No 8 to top-score with 42. Continue reading...

1 week ago Van de Ven at the double as Tottenham cruise to victory against Everton

Tottenham’s aerial prowess under Thomas Frank brought Everton plummeting back to earth at Hill Dickinson Stadium. Spurs inflicted Everton’s first defeat at their new home courtesy of three headed goals, two from the outstanding Micky van de Ven, to rise to third in the Premier League and maintain their dominant form on the road.The disconnect at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium stands in stark contrast to the ruthless efficiency of Frank’s team away from home. Van de Ven converted two corners before substitute Pape Matar Sarr banished any prospect of an Everton recovery with another close-range header in the 89th minute. Given the glaring absence of a quality striker in David Moyes’ squad, the prospect of an Everton comeback was always remote despite the probings of Iliman Ndiaye, James Garner, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Jack Grealish. It is now 13 points from a possible 15 for Frank’s side on their travels this season. Continue reading...

3 w. ago Manchester City’s unstoppable Erling Haaland downs Everton with double

Erling Haaland’s double seized the points, took him to 23 goals in 13 games for club and country, and kept Tottenham as the only foes the uber-striker has failed to score against this season.The 25-year-old’s finishes – on 58 and 63 minutes – shredded David Moyes’s visitors in two high-quality moments that decorated a generally middling affair. Without the injured Rodri and the departed Kevin De Bruyne, this Pep Guardiola iteration does not purr along like his finest ones have. Jack Grealish was not on the sward for Everton, because of the parent-club rule, and City’s manager may ponder the wisdom of allowing the forward’s nous and class to be loaned away.
