导出博客文章Mashrafe Mortaza, Bangladeshs limited-overs captain, has said their upcoming
tour of New Zealand offers a tough challenge for his side because they have
played mostly at home in the last two years. That better-ranked teams have often
struggled in New Zealand, Mashrafe said, meant that Bangladesh were likely to
find it hard as well.In the last couple of years, we played mostly at home and
won many of those matches too, Mashrafe said. We have been successful, now its a
different challenge to play outside home. Its a challenge even for established
teams to do well in New Zealand. So from that aspect, it is a bigger challenge
for us. The New Zealand weather is different from other areas, but we can take
the momentum. We can take good memories, which will give us confidence.Several
players from Bangladeshs preliminary squad will leave Dhaka on Saturday for
Sydney, where they will have a ten-day training camp before heading for their
first tour of New Zealand in nearly seven years.Mashrafe said the camp, during
which they are scheduled to play T20s against BBL sides, will be helpful,
similar to their 15-day stay ahead of the 2015 World Cup, and camps in
Chittagong and Khulna before the 2016 Asia Cup and World T20.It will be good for
us to work in Australia. We will live like a family. We will discuss all the
problems. This makes it easier to work.For example, we did a 15-day camp before
the 2015 World Cup in Australia, which helped us a lot though we lost the four
practice matches, he said. Before the World T20s, we trained in Khulna and
Chittagong, and that helped us in the first round.Mehedi Maruf has been added to
the preliminary squad. After Maruf had initially done well in the BPL, BCB
president Nazmul Hassan had publicly asked the selectors to include him and
Shahriar Nafees in the squad.Bangladesh will play three ODIs, three T20s and two
Tests in New Zealand from December 26 to January 24.

. With the first unit struggling of late and Amir Johnson - one of the teams
iron men - hobbling on an injured right ankle, Patterson knew he could get the
nod in a challenging matchup against one of the leagues up and coming players at
his position. RALEIGH, N.C. -- The attorney for a former North Carolina womens
basketball academic counselor and faculty member who is accused of wrongdoing by
the NCAA is pushing back against the charge -- and the investigative process
itself.Randall Roden, who represents Jan Boxill, filed a 54-page response this
week to an NCAA charge that she provided improper academic assistance to
athletes. That was one of five charges against UNC tied to its long-running
academic fraud scandal, though Rodens response included a letter to the NCAA
complaining of an impossibly burdensome and fundamentally unfair process for
gathering and reviewing evidence in the case.Namely, the response states, Boxill
has consistently been denied access to the database of her own emails at the
center of the charges.They just showed her (emails) that nobody could possibly
remember -- it was 10 years old -- and she says, `I dont know, it could be this,
it might be that, Roden said Wednesday in an interview with The Associated
Press.Well, they were satisfied. Thats all they needed to know. She sent the
email, they jumped to a conclusion based on what it says on the email about what
happened and shes never given a fair opportunity to explain what it really
was.The NCAA gives schools and individual parties named for violations 90 days
to respond to charges outlined in a Notice of Allegations (NOA). Thats often
tougher for individuals compared to a school working with compliance staffers
and outside attorneys.That creates somewhat of a double burden, said Stu Brown,
an Atlanta-based attorney who has worked with schools on infractions cases. It
tends to necessitate the hiring of personal legal counsel and that can be
extremely expensive when you think of just the number of documents and number of
pages of things that have to be looked at just for somebody to get up to speed
on the case.Both UNC and Boxill filed responses Monday and released them
publicly Tuesday. The NCAA enforcement staff has 60 days to respond, which would
eventually lead to a hearing with an infractions committee panel.Among its
arguments, UNC stated its accreditation agency -- not the NCAA -- was tthe
proper authority to handle issues related to irregular courses with significant
athlete enrollments in the formerly named African and Afro-American Studies
(AFAM) department.ddddddddddddAs for Boxill, the NOA cited 18 incidents between
February 2003 and July 2010, such as making changes for athletes to use in
papers, suggesting a course grade and providing an athlete with a completed quiz
for one of Boxills courses.The former philosophy professor and faculty
chairwoman retired in 2015 after UNC began taking steps to fire her following a
2014 outside investigation that detailed the AFAM irregularities.Roden said many
of Boxills charges are due to email exchanges taken out of context. He said they
had since cobbled together more details by talking to former students involved
and sifting through thousands of emails released publicly through records
requests.As an example, Roden said the quiz in question was a take-home
assignment used to spur class discussion. A student emailed her answers to
Boxill seeking help. Boxill spoke with her to explain the response didnt answer
the posed question, and replied by email change it or fill in as you wish for
the student to make her own changes, according to the response.Asked about the
complaints in Boxills response, UNC athletics director Bubba Cunningham said
Tuesday the school has been very cooperative with the NCAA and anyone else who
has asked.Weve been open and transparent in everything that we have done,
Cunningham said. And Ill let her response speak for itself. But weve done
everything we can, that we think is appropriate for the institution and those
that we represent.Roden said Boxill focused on helping students be successful in
life and graduate, not stay eligible to compete.Shes 77 years old. Shes not
going to work for another NCAA-regulated institution, Roden said. So theres
nothing they can do to her. This is about trying to clear her name. . Thats why
were doing this.---Follow Aaron Beard on Twitter at
