Gaestebuch » Its not clear how many carries Fourn

Guys have seen the replays but its one of those things. It can happen to any team, said a crestfallen Graeme Cremer after Zimbabwe went down to New Zealand by 254 runs to concede the series 2-0 in Bulawayo. It would have been nice going into the last hour with a couple of wickets but these things happen. The disappointment was palpable considering Zimbabwe were at the receiving end of a few howlers during the series. ESPNcricinfo examines them:Sean Williams, first innings, first Test Neil Wagner hit Sean Williams on the helmet off his first delivery and broke his grille. A second bouncer followed. Williams, clearly hustled for pace, attempted a pull which lobbed off the helmet to Ish Sodhi at short midwicket. Williams stood until umpire Paul Reiffel gave him out. He walked off disappointed, but not before he gestured to his helmet in explanation.Prince Masvaure, first innings, first Test After saving Zimbabwes blushes with an 85-run ninth wicket stand with Donald Tiripano, Prince Mavaure would have been eyeing a maiden Test fifty. But his hopes were dashed when he played across the line to a Tim Southee delivery. Replays suggested the ball would have missed leg stump, but Reiffel didnt feel so.Craig Ervine, second innings, first Test Three balls after reaching his maiden Test fifty, Craig Ervine played inside the line to a Boult delivery that reversed back into him. There was a noise and Ervine was given out caught behind. But replays showed there was no nick. The ball was not close to the bat and the sound likely came from the bat hitting the pad. Debutant umpire Michael Gough made that call.Graeme Cremer, second innings, first Test Zimbabwes captain saw Sean Williams through to a century and had faced 130 balls himself, for 33. Cremer was picking the spin well until he tried to flick an Ish Sodhi legbreak but missed. He was hit above the knee roll and the ball would have sailed over the stumps, but Reiffel didnt think that way.Donald Tiripano, first innings, second Test His first Test efforts proved Donald Tiripano could bat, but his resistance was cut short in the second Test. Neil Wagner pitched a ball just outside leg, Tiripano missed an attempted nudge and was hit in front of leg stump. Reiffel gave him out despite the ball pitching outside the line of the stumps.Chamu Chibhabha, first innings, second Test The only time Zimbabwe benefitted from a decision was off the second ball on the third morning. Chamu Chibhabha and Tino Mawoyo had made sure they had not lost wickets the evening before, but Chibhabha should have been out when Boult got one to pitch in line, tail in late and hit him on the pads. Reiffel said not out even as the New Zealanders watched in dismay.Donald Tiripano, second innings, second Test For the second time in the match, Tiripano was at the receiving end of a poor call. He had batted 70 minutes of the final morning in an effort to save the game and was dealing well with seam and spin when Mitchell Santner, the left-arm spinner, bowled one that drifted in towards leg stump. The ball skidded on, without turning and would have missed leg stump. Umpire Reiffel clearly didnt see it that way.Craig Ervine, second innings, second Test At the stroke of lunch on the final day, Ervine seemed set to see out the session. Kane Williamson looked to get rid of an over by giving Martin Guptill a bowl. Ervine lunged forward to defend but missed a ball that turned. There no contact between bat and ball, although the bat may have hit the pad and made a sound. Reiffel gave Ervine out.Graeme Cremer, second innings, second Test Cremer had not managed to plant roots as he did in the first Test, but still had some hope of batting time, despite Zimbabwe being seven down after lunch. Guptill was turning the ball significantly and Cremer inside-edged one onto his pad. He was given out lbw by Reiffel.Prince Masvaure, second innings, second Test At the other end, with Zimbabwe in complete disarray, Prince Masvaure got down to defend a Sodhi ball the beat the inside edge and hit him on the pad. The ball lobbed up to Taylor, who claimed the catch at slip, and Masvaure was sent packing by Gough. Even assuming it was for an lbw, the ball would have comfortably missed leg stump.

BATON ROUGE, La. -- Les Miles didnt get much chance to talk about the opponent No. 21 LSU is facing this week.There were too many questions about the embattled coachs own program coming off a season-opening upset loss to Wisconsin . Why did LSUs offensive line have trouble blocking for star running back Leonard Fournette? Why wasnt LSUs passing game broadened as promised? Why didnt junior quarterback Brandon Harris appear to have improved during the offseason? Will Miles consider a quarterback change?Despite those questions -- and the fact LSU has plummeted 16 spots from its preseason No. 5 ranking -- the Tigers (0-1) arent expected to struggle against Jacksonville State, which plays in the NCAAs second-tier Football Championship Subdivision.But Jacksonville State also is seen as one of the top programs of its size in the nation, ranked fifth in FCS polls. If the Gamecocks were ever primed for a program-defining upset in 102,000-seat Death Valley, it would be on Saturday night.It gives us a chance to prove that we can play against anyone, said prolific Gamecocks dual-threat quarterback Eli Jenkins, who has accounted for 1,000 more yards of offense than any other player in JSU history. It gives us a chance to show what we got.Jacksonville State has a number of transfers from top-tier Football Bowl Subdivision programs -- including former LSU receiver Kevin Spears, ex-Auburn running back Roc Thomas and ex-Kentucky defensive tackle Regie Meant -- and the Gamecocks gave Auburn fits last season.They have a lot of guys that transferred in, so were looking forward to the challenge, LSU safety Jamal Adams said. Were looking forward to (facing) some (former) SEC guys.Adams stressed that LSUs margin for error is so thin, the Tigers cant afford to underestimate anyone.Weve got to come out and play like were in the playoffs every game, Adams said. Were in adversity now.---Some things to know about LSUs home opener against Jacksonville State:HARRIED HARRIS: Miles has shielded Harris from the media since he went 12-for-21 for 131 yards with one TD against two interceptions last week. But it didnt sound like Miles was ready to give uup on his season-opening starter.ddddddddddddHe said he hoped that if backup Danny Etling takes the fields, it will be in mop-up duty on the heels of an better outing by Harris. I know the capability Harris has, Miles said. We just need for that capability to continue to come.RECORD SMASHER: Jenkins accounted for 331 yards of offense in his teams season-opening victory over North Alabama last week, giving him 8,688 yards of total offense for his career. He also owns the school record for touchdowns with 66 (36 passing, 30 rushing). Hes a great quarterback for those guys and we have to be ready, LSUs Adams said. We definitely have to honor him with his run but stay on our toes and be prepared for the pass.FACING FOURNETTE: Its not clear how many carries Fournette will get. He got up favoring his left leg after the final carry of a 138-yard performance last week. Miles insists hes fine, but also conceded that Fournette was allowed to sit out practice to rest earlier this week. With Derrius Guice, Darrel Williams and Nick Brossette providing depth at running back, it might not make sense to play Fournette much this weekend.FORMAL INTRODUCTION: LSU and Jacksonville State have never played before. In addition, the largest crowd ever to witness a JSU game is 87,451 in Auburn last season, a number likely to be exceeded at Tiger Stadium -- depending on how many ticket-holders disgusted by last weeks LSU performance decide not to show up. The Gamecocks are 1-6 all-time vs. the SEC, with the lone win coming against Mississippi in 2010.LINE ITEMS: Miles has to shuffle his offensive line this week because guard Josh Boutte has been suspended on game for a flagrant foul at the end of last weeks loss, when he flatted Wisconsin defensive back DCota Dixon as he celebrated his game-sealing interception. Miles indicated that Maea Teuhema, who spent the offseason transitioning from guard to tackle, will be back at guard this week to fill in for Bouttee.---AP College Football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
