America 205 (Babar 63, Pervez 3-38) by 34 runsScorecardNitish Kumars
half-century and two wickets in a momentum-shifting bowling spell led Canada
past USA by 34 runs in the opening 50-over contest of the 2016 Auty Cup in
Woodley Park on Thursday. In his first match as Canada captain, Kumar arrived in
the fourth over with the side at 20 for 1, after being put in to bat on a moist
pitch, and teamed with Srimantha Wijeratne for a 104-run second-wicket
partnership that laid the platform for the score of 239 for 8.Kumar had some
help from USAs poor fielding performance that allowed the side to flourish
early. Kumar was dropped twice - on 2 and 11 - by wicketkeeper Akeem Dodson in
his innings of 60, while Wijeratne, who top-scored with 66, enjoyed three lives
- he was put down by Steven Taylor at slip on 28 and 45, and then Dodson missed
a stumping on 59.Taylor did his best to stall Canadas momentum with the ball
and, after nabbing Kumar and Wijeratne, he burrowed through Canadas middle order
to claim a career-best 5 for 47. Shehan Kamileen was teased into a edging a
wider delivery, while Nikhil Dutta and Junaid Siddiqui were both given out leg
before playing across the line.Legspinner Timil Patel built pressure at the
other end to aid Taylor, ending with 2 for 35. Both strikes came in the 37th
over - a double-wicket maiden - that swung the momentum USAs way. Hamza Tariq
sent a leading edge back for a return catch off the second ball before Dilon
Heyliger fell three balls later, flicking around his pads.Canada slipped from
152 for 2 to 183 for 8 by the time Taylor and Patel had ripped through the
line-up but USAs inability to see off the tail cost them badly. Varun Sehdev and
Satsimranjit Dhindsa added an unbeaten 56-run stand for the ninth wicket. An
injury to Srini Santhanam, who had consistently troubled Canada and had two
chances put down off his bowling, also dented USAs bowling effort. Santhanam
hurt his shoulder throwing in a relay from the boundary in the 20th over, having
just finished his sixth over in a spell of 0 for 30. He was off the field for
the rest of the innings.USA sprinted toward the target early on thanks in part
to Canadas wayward start with the ball - four leg byes and five wides in the
first over - an early sign of things to come. The 32 extras bowled by Canada
ended up as the second-highest contributor to USAs score. USA reached 45 in the
fifth over as opener Abdullah Syed began by driving Dhindsa to the cover rope,
then slashed him over third man for six in the second over before being caught
down the leg side off Cecil Pervez for 12.Opening batsman Fahad Babar motored
along to 35 off 32 balls before the introduction of spin halted his and USAs
overall progress. While Babar managed to keep Canadas spinners out, his
middle-order partners could not. Kumar brought himself on in the 14th over and
clogged up runs at his end. The pressure saw USA add 10 runs and lose three
wickets over the next seven overs to slip from 80 for 1 in 13 overs to 90 for 4
in 20 overs.Alex Amsterdam played down the wrong line and was pinned lbw by
Kumar for 14. Taylor ran himself out for 1, with Babar on strike, as Kumar made
a diving stop at midwicket off Dutta and then calmly threw to the bowler, with
the batsman giving up. Dodson then edged Kumar to Siddiqui at slip for 5, giving
the Canada captain figures of 2 for 6 with two maidens in his first five
overs.Babar eventually brought up his half-century off 71 balls in the 27th over
and appeared to have found a willing ally in Nicholas Standford to get USAs
chase back on track. Standford slammed Siddiquis legspin over the on side for
six and four in the 23rd over but, five overs later, he edged behind off Dhindsa
while attempting a cut.Babars patience ran out, too, and he gave his wicket to
Siddiqui, charging down the track for the first time in the 38th over and edging
a slog to Tariq for 63. USA needed 74 off the last 12 overs but that was too
much for the tail. Jessy Singh and Danial Ahmed were both caught on the boundary
to wrap up the innings in 47.2 overs. Pervez was brilliant in his second spell,
taking 2 for 11 and two maidens in five overs to finish with 3 for 38 in 10.

. -- Stanford squashed Oregons national championship hopes again, schooling the
Ducks in power football.Scott Sinclair says he still holds ambitions of being
selected for England and hopes playing in the Champions League with Celtic can
help his cause. The 27-year-old, who has represented his country at U21 level
but has never appeared for the senior squad, moved to Parkhead in the summer
following frustrating spells with Manchester City and Aston Villa.Celtic were
drawn against Barcelona, Manchester City and Borussia Monchengladbach in the
Champions League this year and sit bottom of their group with two points after
four games but Sinclair hopes playing against Europes elite can help to boost
his international prospects. Scott Sinclair hopes playing in the Champions
League can help win him an England call-up When my time is right itll come but
at the moment Im concentrating on just playing week by week and every game that
is coming in front of me - that is what Im enjoying, he said.So, at this moment
in time, if I can get into England then that would great - my ambitions are
still to play for my country. Six months half price Upgrade to Sky Sports to

Sinclair admitted the lure of potentially playing Champions League football and
giving himself another platform to showcase his international credentials was a
factor in his decision to move to Glasgow and does not see why he cannot be
selected while playing in Scotlands top flight.If you can keep doing well in the
Champions League and, on a personal note, in playing games then I dont see why
[I cant] break in. Its great that Im playing every week and scoring goals and
getting back into form. Sinclair has represented England at U21 level Im justt
enjoying my football again and that was the main reason for me coming here and I
havent looked back since.dddddddddddd I wouldnt say there is any barrier, it is
just about how you do. If you are playing Champions League and you are doing it
at that level then I dont see why not.Sinclair says he is not sure what it would
take to earn a call-up to the national side but believes all he can do is
continue to perform well at club level in the hope of making interim England
boss Gareth Southgate - or whoever takes over the job full-time - sit up and
take notice. Sinclair had previously sampled Champions League football with
Manchester City He said: At the moment I wouldnt know, youd have to ask
[Southgate] or whoever was bringing players into the squad. All I can do is
concentrate on myself and keep doing as well as I can.Celtic are the bookmakers
favourites to land Steven Gerrard after it was confirmed that the midfielder
will leave LA Galaxy and, speaking before that news was revealed, Sinclair said
the former Liverpool captain would be an excellent signing for the club. Steven
Gerrard has left LA Galaxy and is being linked with a move to Celtic It would be
a massive thing if he did come here, that would be unbelievable. I think the
fans would take to him and it would be a massive deal in football, he said.Hes a
world class player so Im sure a lot of players here would learn from him. Once
we are in that Champions League and playing the likes of Barcelona and
Manchester City and all these big clubs, it attracts more players.Upgrade to Sky
