The International Cricket Council has said that England bowler James
Anderson will face a full disciplinary hearing on Aug. 1 on a charge of
pushing and abusing India's Ravindra Jadeja. A preliminary hearing has
set the date. Anderson is alleged to have pushed Jadeja when the teams
were leaving the pitch at lunch on day two of the first test at Trent
Bridge. If the level three charge is upheld, Anderson could be banned
for four tests. The hearing is set for the day after the scheduled
conclusion of the third test at Southampton. England responded to
India's complaint with a level two charge against Jadeja. The ICC says
it is still working out the details of Jadeja's hearing. Jadeja faces a
one-test ban and a fine of 50 to 100 percent of his match fee.
Afghanistan beat Zimbabwe
Afghanistan kept its one-day international series against Zimbabwe alive with a two-wicket victory that left the tourists trailing 2-1 ahead of the final match. Hamilton Masakadza struck 84 as Zimbabwe reached 261-8 in its 50 overs, but the total was chased down with two balls to spare as Afghanistan rattled up 264-8, helped by a half century from opener Javed Ahmadi. Thursday's final match gives Afghanistan the chance to level the four-match series. "We were exceptionally poor today in the field and with the ball, we can't get much worse than that," Zimbabwe captain Brendan Taylor told The Associated Press. "It's a wake-up call ... Today we rested some of our better bowlers. They will come back on Thursday and make it tough for them."
Sharapova's comments not disrespectful
Sachin Tendulkar has said backed Maria Sharapova in the row which has seen Indian masses going after her. According to the master, he didn't find it disrespectful that Russian tennis star Maria Sharapova didn't know who he was as she did not follow cricket. "Sharapova's comments were not disrespectful. She doesn't follow cricket," a gentleman-like Sachin said in an exclusive interview to NDTV. Tendulkar fans reacted angrily on social media when Sharapova admitted during a post match press conference at the Wimbledon that she did not know who was Sachin Tendulkar.
