We just feel pride in what we have achieved and are glad that the pressure is on them and their captain for once.”When I took over as captain and we lost to New Zealand in 1999 everyone was writing ‘R I P English cricket’ and now it is all on them. Everyone is asking what is wrong with their cricket but I do not look at that and say ‘good’. “It is a great place to play and, like India, cricket is in their blood. But I take no pleasure in seeing them at this low-point at the moment. We are not laughing at them and we don’t feel like this is pay-back time.

After losing a home series to their fiercest rivals for their first time in 36 years against, the West Indies are in turmoil.
“I am a big fan of West Indies cricket,” Hussain said. Hameed tried a square cut off seamer Ajit Agarkar and got a thick edge to the India captain, Rahul Dravid, at first slip.. Nasser Hussain has been on the wrong end of some heavy beatings during his three previous tours of the Caribbean, but the former England captain is taking little satisfaction from the current plight of West Indian cricket. He faced 129 balls compiling his first 50, but sped up the scoring rate after lunch and faced a further 68 deliveries to complete his second century in his 10th Test match.Pakistan had resumed at 61 for 1 and lost Yasir Hameed (19) in the morning session before reaching 145 for 2 by lunch. There was still support for bowlers and Indian bowlers kept a tidy line,” Inzamam said.Youhana had a lucky escape on 38 when the Australian umpire Simon Taufel rejected a caught behind appeal by Anil Kumble. Television replays showed that the ball had taken a faint edge off Youhana’s bat.India’s bowlers struggled hard but were rewarded with only one wicket in each of the first two sessions, with Inzamam and Farhat combining to score 110 for the third wicket.Farhat, a 22-year-old left-hander, hit 14 boundaries. The Pakistan captain, Inzamam-ul-Haq, and the opener Imran Farhat scored centuries here yesterday as Pakistan built a 68-run lead at stumps on the second day of the second Test against India.

It would be a major surprise if the 33-year-old does not win that event here and fails to make his fifth Olympics.. “I can feel the pressure catching up with me now,” Sexton said. “But I will be in Sheffield with one aim in mind – to reach the Olympics.”Foster, who took the 50m freestyle silver in Barcelona, heads a 28-strong contingent from Bath. Gibson faces the tougher test because he is just one of five British men’s breastrokers in the world’s top 20. The others are the Commonwealth Games 100m champion Adam Whitehead, the world 200m silver medallist Edmond, Chris Cook and Darren Mew.Sexton and Sarah Price will probably be vying for first and second (and thus the two Olympic places available) in the 200m backstroke final and both will be in action in the 100m backstroke, which sees heats and semi-finals today.
