Durand
Cup NEW DELHI, Nov 5 (UNI) — Calcutta soccer giants and last year’s runners-up East Bengal sailed into the semifinals of the Durand Cup by beating JCT Phagwara 1-0 in their last quarterfinal match at the Ambedkar Stadium here today. In another quarterfinal match, Churchill Brothers of Goa, who have already qualified for the semis, defeated Muktijoddha Sangsad of Bangladesh 2-1. East Bengal fired the winning salvo in the 57th minute when newcomer Nigerian Isiaka Aowemy intercepted a JCT midfield pass and lobbed it to Dipendu who was inside the JCT penalty box. Dipendu flicked the ball to medio Suley Musah who gently tapped the ball inside the goal. The way JCT attacked East Bengal conveyed the message that they were playing to a plan and were out to prove their mettle. JCT launched an attack in the 13th minute when forward Hardip Sangha passed the ball to Hardip Gill inside the Bengal penalty box. Gill shot a powerful-right-footer but East Bengal defender Falguni Dutta jumped in to block it which was subsequently cleared by stopper back Jackson Agaypong. Being shaken by the attack East Bengal made some good forays into the rival half but failed to score on each occasion. The team missed a scoring opportunity when it earned a free-kick which was taken by Chandan. Chandan’s powerful grounder was saved by JCT custodian Arvind Kumar. Again a few minutes later Dipendu’s 15-yard shot was fisted by the JCT custodian and Tarsem Kumar cleared it. In another inconsequential match of the day, semifinalists Churchill Brothers held complete sway over their rivals Muktijoddha Sangsad of Bangladesh. Churchill lads showed no complacence and played an attacking game, much to the delight of the crowd. In the twelfth minute, Churchill forward Uday Konar snatched a wayward pass and lobbed it to Abhishek whose shot was saved by a rival defender. Again a few minutes later Churchill earned a free kick. The Muktijoddha custodian Aminul Haque failed to collect and defender Prodeep had to make the clearance. Churchill scored the first goal in the 56th minute when right-half Edson Crasto received a pass and dribbled two defenders to pass it to Brazil-born forward Andre Requena in the right flank. Andre’s powerful right-footer swerved into the Muktijoddha goal to make it 1-0. The Goa league champions clinched the lead eleven minutes later when Andre intercepted a Muktijoddha pass and lobbed the ball to substitute forward Somatai Shaiza. Shaiza gave a long cross to fellow substitute forward Francis Silviera inside the rival penalty box. Silviera’s angular grounder beat Haque to hit the net. Following these goals, Muktijoddha made three quick substitutions to
bolster their line-up and it paid off in the 84th minute when the outfit
reduced the margin. Substitute left winger Saurav Raju passed the ball
to forward Moni who lobbed it again to medio Masud Rana inside the
Churchill penalty box. Masud, on seeing two rival defenders, passed it
to substitute forward Litton whose shot rocketted into the net to make
it 2-1. |

Tiger
rejects big appearance money
SYDNEY, Nov 5 (AFP) — World No.1 Tiger Woods has turned down $ 2.3
million Australian US $ 1.2 million appearance money to play in the
Australian Open later this month, a report said today.
Quoting PGA Tour insiders, Sydney’s Sunday Telegraph said Wood’s
price had skyrocketed to between $ 3.5 million and $ 3.8 million
(Australian) dollars to play in an Australian or an Asian tournament.
“Tiger has rewritten the appearance fee book. No tournament can
actually afford him,” said Tony Roosenberg, championship director of
the two richest tournaments on the Australasian scene this year — the
Heineken Classic in Perth and the World Match Play in Melbourne.
“What I hope for is that Tiger becomes so rich that he begins to
play at Australia’s great golf courses simply because they have
worldwide stature,” he said.
“That’s why I am hopeful Tiger will play at Royal Melbourne when
the Heineken Classic moves there (from Perth) after this year.”
The International Management Group which manages Woods and stages the
Australian Open would not comment.
Greg Norman, Briton Nick Faldo, American Mark O’Meara and Irishman
Padraig Harrington, are the lead attractions at this year’s Open from
November 23-26 at Kingston heath in Melbourne, with prize-money boosted
by 25 per cent to $ 1.25 million Australian.
It is believed O’Meara and Faldo will be paid about $ 150,000 US
each to play.
Former winner Robert Allenby, a two-times US PGA Tour winner this
year, and Stuart Appleby will be joined by Greg Chalmers and Mat Goggin.
Australian Open chief Colin Phillips recently suggested the number of
Australasian tournaments be slashed in half to cope with the soaring
cost of appearance fees.
He called for six big events over the Australian summer instead of
the current schedule which lists 11, including the World Match Play in
January.
“Prices have gone up dramatically since Tiger came on the scene and
there is so much money on offer from competing events around the world,”
Phillips said. |

Azhar’s charge dismays Mongia BARODA, Nov 5 (PTI) — Former stumper Nayan Mongia today expressed his dismay over having been charged with match-fixing in the CBI report, saying he was not even a member of the Indian team for the two matches stated to have been fixed in the report. The report quotes former captain Mohammad Azharuddin as having told the investigating agency that Ajay Jadeja and Mongia fixed matches along with him. Mongia, along with four other cricketers, including Azharuddin and Jadeja, have been banned by the cricket board from playing international or domestic cricket pending an inquiry based on the report. “His (Azharuddin’s) statment is totally false,” Mongia told PTI here today. “The absurdity of the allegation can be gauged by the fact that I was not a member of the team in the two matches referred by Azharuddin,” Mongia said. “My record speaks for me. Since 1995, I have never dropped any catches or missed stumping chances in the matches I played for the country. “I am not a recognised batsman, so the question of my involvement in match-fixing does not arise. “My inclusion in the team was as a wicket-keeper and I was doing my job perfectly and have played the game to the very best of my ability and skill. “I am always proud of representing the country, state or board,” Mongia said. Mongia denied having known any bookie or spoken to them over phone. He said it was unfair on part of Azharuddin to drag his name into the controversy. “Without offering any evidence of any kind to back his statement, how can one make such allegations?” he asked. Mongia also denied that he had undisclosed wealth. “I don’t have disproportionate income and all my properties have been accounted for,” he said. “I will put before the commissioner of inquiry (of the cricket board) K. Madhavan, my case whenever I am asked to appear before him and I am confident of proving my innocence. Mongia said he hoped to be back in the national team. “It is a matter of great privilege of representing the country.” |

Asif
denies involvement
DUBAI, Nov 5 (UNI) — Former Pakistani skipper Asif Iqbal has
vehemently denied his involvement in match-fixing or betting even as he
admitted that he knew Mumbai-based bookie Anil Steel, with whom, the CBI
says, he had close links.
Reacting to the CBI report on match-fixing and betting in which his
name also figures, Asif, the coordinator of the Cricketers/Benefit Fund
Series (CBFS) at Sharjah told Khaleej Times from his London residence
that "Yes, I know Anil and I was friendly with him but it does not
mean that I am involved in any kind of match-fixing or anything".
He said "This is true that Anil used to ask me my opinion on a
particular match or things related to cricket and I used to give him my
opinions but there was nothing like match-fixing involved in our
discussions".
Asif went on to say: "See, I am a retired cricketer and
commentator. Nothing can stop me from expressing my opinions on a
cricket match. I am not a serving player and I cannot influence the game
in any respect".
The 162-page report, released recently by the premier Indian
investigative agency, has sent shock waves in the cricket world by
naming five Indian and seven foreign players for their involvement in
match-fixing.
A chapter on foreign players in the report said Mumbai-based bookie
Anil Steel claimed to have close links with Asif. "Anil Steel, the
bookie from Mumbai has stated that he is on very friendly terms with
Asif Iqbal, the former Pakistani captain. He has also stated that he has
sought ‘information’ from Asif Iqbal about international matches and
has also given him ‘gifts’ or jewellery items etc".
The report said: "Anil Steel has disclosed that he introduced MK
(alleged bookmaker Mukesh Gupta, the central character in the CBI
report), to Asif Iqbal during the World Cup inaugural ceremony at
Calcutta in 1996. MK has stated that Asif Iqbal had introduced him to
Jayasuriya at Sharjah, sometime in 1996".
Asif said: "I don’t think the CBI report is going to harm
cricket in any way. I think it will benefit the game once and for all
and will help in bringing back the fast-fading integrity of the
sport".
He said: "There are some retired players who work as consultants
to legal bookmakers in England. I don’t think there is any law to stop
it".
The former Pakistani skipper also refused to subscribe to the view
that the CBI report would restrict the off-shore cricket around the
world. "If you look into the report, the majority of the matches
suspected to be fixed were played in regular Test-playing countries and
there is no mention of Sharjah in this report".
Asked what the CBFS would do if any of its future beneficiaries was
implicated in the match-fixing scandal, he said: "It is up to the
respective boards to find out the whole truth behind the allegations. As
far as the CBFS is concerned, we have nothing to do with the list of
beneficiaries as the players are nominated by the boards in consultation
with the CBFS".
He concluded: "Let me take this opportunity to say that the CBI
has done a great job in preparing this report and now it is up to
respective boards to rise to the occasion and take some solid
steps". |

Match-fixing
in county cricket?
LONDON, Nov 5 (Reuters) — Allegations that two matches between
Essex and Lancashire nine years ago were fixed are being investigated,
the England Cricket Board said on Sunday.
ECB chairman Lord MacLaurin told BBC Radio 5 Live that an inquiry was
"in progress".
The Sunday Telegraph newspaper said the allegations that the results
of the matches — one a county championship game and the other a Sunday
League limited overs fixture — were fixed originally came from former
Zimbabwe coach and Essex player Don Topley.
His claims in a series of newspaper articles were dismissed some
years ago but the Sunday Telegraph said the ECB had decided to reopen
investigations earlier this year when further witnesses came forward.
In the championship match Essex, having been set 270 to win in 67
overs, won by eight wickets and went on to take the title by 13 points.
In the Sunday match Essex made a modest 169 for six from 40 overs
after being put in and Lancashire knocked off the runs with five wickets
and five balls to spare. |

B’desh
opposition puts off rally plan
DHAKA, Nov 5 (PTI) — Bangladesh opposition parties have deferred
their plan to hold a protest rally near the Bangabandhu National
Stadium, where the country is scheduled to play its first cricket Test
match from November 10. The four-party opposition alliance said it would
instead hold the “grand rally” in other parts of the capital city on
November 7. Secretary-General of Bangladesh Nationalist Party Abdul
Mannan Bhuiyan said the decision of postponing plans to hold the rally
at Paltan Maidan near the stadium, venue of the one-off Test match
between Bangladesh and India, was taken after a joint meeting. |

Vijay, Tiger tied after third round ATLANTA, Nov 5 (Reuters) — Masters Champion Vijay Singh shot a bogey-free 5-under-par 65 to tie Tiger Woods after three rounds at the Tour Championship yesterday. Woods shot a 66 to stand at 10-under 200. David Duval, who held a one-shot lead over Woods heading into the third round, stumbled to a 4-over 74, to sink into a tie for ninth place, seven strokes back of the leaders at 207. Phil Mickelson also shot a 65 yesterday to sit a stroke off the pace with a 9-under 201. Ernie Els, who shot a 66, was another two strokes behind at 6-under 204. Nick Price of Zimbabwe, Australian Stuart Appleby and David Toms were at 4-under 206 going into the final round. “This is probably the best I’ve felt,” Singh said. “I like the way I am putting. I feel really comfortable and more I putt, I feel more and more at ease with it. I think it is a good way that I am putting and hopefully it is going to do me good.” Singh rolled in four of his five birdies on the front nine and sank a 12-footer on No. 10 to go 5-under. He played even-par the rest of the way. Woods said both he and Duval, his playing partner, hit a lot of “borderline shots,” but the 24-year-old showed again what has made him one of the most dominant players the game has ever seen. “I think David had one of those days where shots that he hit that were borderline ended up terrible,” Woods said. “I was the exact opposite. Hit some borderline shots, ended up great”. Woods looked like he was going to leave the field behind, with birdies on three of the first four holes, but then his troubles started. He put a 9-iron over the green and missed a 6-footer to bogey 5, and after tapping in from six inches for birdie on the sixth, he hit a tree and missed an 8-foot putt, bogeying the seventh. He came out of the up-and-down stretch on 8, lofting a sand wedge to 10 feet and rolling it in for a birdie. “No doubt about it, today was one of those days where I didn’t feel like I was hitting the ball well,” woods said. “But it was good enough where I was in play initially on the front nine. Then from there I felt pretty good with my irons. I just needed to get the ball in play. That was the struggle all week, actually, all day.” Woods rolled in a 15-footer for birdie on 10 and on 15 left himself a 2-footer to go 5-under for the day. He ran into trouble on 17, where his drive found the left rough, and he three-putted from 30 feet for his third bogey of the day. “Even though I got off to such a great start, I wasn’t feeling that great,” he said. “A lot of it was just timing and kind of, just basically playing by timing and feel. I didn’t really have the club in the right position at all. Consequently he ended up catching up with me.” Like Singh, Mickelson played bogey-free golf, and also credited his improved putting. Chasing Woods and Singh, he said he’ll need more of the same today. “For me, I need to go out tomorrow, get off to a good start just as I had yesterday and today,” he said yesterday. “If I can just make a couple birdies early, being the group in front I think will have its advantages. “But if I don’t get off to a good start, then being in front will be a negative.” Seeking his second Tour Championship in four years, Duval, a former star at nearby Georgia Tech, carded a 2-under-par 68 on Friday to move past struggling first-round leader Els and grab a one-shot lead after 36 holes of the $5 million event. Els rebounded after posting a 72 in the second round with a solid day, putting himself back in contention. Duval was sidelined for two months with a nagging back injury but returned to claim his first title of the year and 12th of his career last month in Georgia. The Tour Championship features the top 30 players on the money list,
minus an injured Jim Furyk, creating a 29-player field. |

Indian
men lose to Bulgaria
ISTANBUL, Nov 5 (PTI) — An unexpected blunder from in-form
grandmaster Abhijit Kunte led to India’s 1.5-2.5 defeat against
Bulgaria in the seventh round of the 34th Chess Olympiad being played
here.
The women, however, put up a spirited show to down Azerbaijan 2-1
with WGM Vijayalakshmi continuing to excel on the top board.
Germany, with 20.5 points, maintained their one point supremacy over
nearest rivals Russia with a 2-2 draw against Slovakia in the men’s
event. Indians have tallied 17 points to be on the joint 21st spot.
Chinese women outclassed Moldova 3-0 to lead with 16.5 points.
Georgia is a close second with 15.5 while India has 13 points.
Indian men started as underdogs for the fifth day in succession. With
big guns like GM Veselin Topalov and Kiril Georgiev, the Bulgarians,
pitted their best team.
On the top board, Topalov opened with the queen pawn and opted for
the fashionable Bayonet attack against GM Krishnan Sasikiran’s King’s
Indian defence.
After established theoretical manoeuvres, Sasikiran emerged with a
dynamic equality in the middlegame with his sights focussed on the
opponent’s king.
Topalov opened the queenside and Sasikiran blockaded the central
passed pawn in copy book fashion. To complicate further Topalov went for
a highly tactical variation but found Sasi well armed.
After the tactical skirmishes, an endgame where Sasikiran had three
minor pieces against two rooks was reached.
However, the nature of the position became level as very few pawns
remained on board. At the first opportunity Topalov sacrificed all
material and left Sasikiran with two knights to draw the game via a
stalemate after 94 moves.
Abhijit was apparently surprised with the Sicilian Nazdorf of Kiril
Goergiev and burned the bridge early in the middle game. After some fine
shows against strong opposition in the earlier rounds, Abhijit could not
keep the momentum and blundered a piece soon after the opening.
A relieved Kiril gobbled the piece in no time and forced Abhijit
resignation.
On the third board, 14-year-old IM P. Harikrishna faced the English
opening of Delchev and the game took shape in a reverse Sicilian Dragon.
Harikrishna equalised comfortably in the middlegame and Delchev decided
not to press for a victory.
The draw was agreed to after 34 moves.
Indian captain D.V. Prasad could not make much use of his white
pieces and had to settle for a draw against A. Kolev in just 19 moves of
a French Winawer variation.
In the women’s section Vijayalakshmi continued her top form with
victory over F. Babaeva to take her personal score to 6/7. Playing black
Vijayalakshmi outsmarted her opponent in an Italian game.
Vijayalakshmi was a pawn up in the middlegame and she capitalised on
the advantage to romp home easily.
On the second board, Subbaraman Minakshi made short work of Shukurova
in a King’s Indian defence game with white pieces. |

Delhi 270 for 7
against Haryana
GAWAL PAHARI (Gurgaon), Nov 5 (UNI) — A spirited 67-run unbeaten eighth wicket stand between spinners Nikhil Chopra and Rahul Sanghvi enabled Delhi to score 270 for 7 against Haryana on the opening day of the North Zone Ranji Trophy Cricket Championship here today. Put in to bat by Haryana skipper Parinder Sharma, Delhi were given a sound start by openers Akash Chopra and Ashu Dani who put up 95 runs but after that the visitors lost four quick wickets within a space of 47 runs. It was left to veteran off spinner Pankaj Thakur to break the opening partnership which was assuming dangerous propositions. SCOREBOARD Extras: 18 NEW DELHI:
A 138-run fourth-wicket partnership between Amit Nadkarani and Sarabjit Singh helped Services reach 264 for eight against Himachal Pradesh on the opening day of the North Zone Ranji Trophy Cricket Championship at Palam ground here today. Electing to bat, Services started rather poorly but a solid 84 by Amit Nadkarani and 79 by Sarabjit Singh enabled them to end the day with a comfortable total with two wickets still in hand. Amit hit 12 boundaries in his knock while Sarabjit’s 79 were studded with seven boundaries. At stumps J.P. Pandey was batting on 30 while S. Javed was on 1. Brief scores: Sarabjit Singh 79, J.P. Pandey batting 30, S. Javed batting 1, Jaswant Rai 3 for 53, Rahul 2 for 39, Amit Sharma 2 for 82). |

Atwal
shoots six under par 66
GURGAON, Nov 5 (UNI) — Playing dream golf, Arjun Atwal shot six
under par 66 in the final round to win the $ 200,000 Hero Honda Masters,
here today.
Calcutta-based pro Atwal, who shot sub-par rounds on all four days,
aggregated 18-under 270. That was two strokes better than runner-up
Simon Dyson of England.
Dyson tallied 16-under 272 for his back-to-back runner-up spot after
last week’s Lexus International but had the satisfaction of dislodging
Yeh Wei-Tze from top of the Order of Merit after winning a cheque of $
22,260.
Atwal’s earning for the week was $ 32,300 which helped him to
eighth position in the Order of Merit with total earnings of $ 95,107.
American Andrew Pitts finished third at 15-under 273, while overnight
leader Rodrigo Cuello slipped to tied fourth place at 13-under 275 along
with Scott Kammonn of the USA.
Defending champion Jyoti Randhawa shot a three-under 69 on the final
day to finish in sixth place at 12-under 276.
Atwal began the day two strokes behind Cuello and was soon three
strokes back as the Philippine golfer made birdies on the first and
fourth holes against Atwal’s birdie on the second. But Cuello’s game
fell apart after a bogey on the fifth, while the Indian’s caught fire
as he made four consecutive birdies from the sixth hole onwards.
"Those four birdies turned the tide for me. By the time I
started the back nine, I was confident that I will win," said the
28-year-old whose earlier victory on the Asian PGA Davidoff Tour was the
1999 Wills Indian Open.
On the back nine, Atwal made a birdie on the 12th and then
brilliantly saved a par on the 13th when he was facing a 15-footer
downhill par putt.
He then birdied the 15th, made his fourth three-putt bogey in four
days on the 17th. In fact, he finished with another three-putt on the
18th, but he had reached the green in two and the title was secured by
then. |
