Saqlain Mushtaq will remain with the England team until the end of the third Test in Mohali after agreeing an extension to his deal with the ECB.Saqlain, the former Pakistan offspinner, is currently in the middle of a second spell as spin-bowling consultant with the England side but had originally been contracted to spend just a couple of weeks with the team. He was scheduled to leave the tour after the first Test.But with all three spinners in the England side enjoying an improved performance in Rajkot, it has now been decided to retain his services for a little longer. While there had been some concerns over whether they would be able to extend his visa due to the strained relationship between India and Pakistan, the ECB has confirmed that the issue has been resolved.The ECB has been criticised in recent times - not least by Graeme Swann - for not providing the same level of support to spin bowlers as other disciplines within the side. While batting and bowling coaches travel with the team nearly all the time, the likes of Saqlain and, before him, Mushtaq Ahmed, have been contracted for just a few days a few times a year. Sometimes this has been arranged only a couple of days before games, providing little time for meaningful coaching or improvement.Adil Rashids improved showing in Rajkot has, in part, been credited to Saqlain, though. Encouraged to bowl at his natural pace, rather than bowl quicker which has been a feature of recent performances, Rashid gained impressive turn and noted Saqlains input on field placement and game plans.Doug Flutie Womens Jersey .

Speaking to the Chicago Tribune at baseballs Winter Meetings in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, Boras called the former home of the Expos a "tremendous environment" for baseball.An emotional Bathurst 1000 campaign may finally be behind him but Craig Lowndes is facing another grim reality - he cant win the 2016 Supercars championship.Lowndes is third in the drivers standings, 319 points behind leader Shane van Gisbergen with three rounds left.But the Holden veteran believes he is no chance of claiming a fourth series win - and first since 1999 - ahead of this weekends Gold Coast 600.Lowndes, 42, admitted he was drained by a Mount Panorama campaign that honoured the 10th anniversary of his mentor Peter Brocks death.He was sentimental favourite to claim a seventh Great Race to acknowledge Brock but disaster struck, with a rare gearbox issue eventually relegating them to 16th.Going into Bathurst was always going to be emotional but we finally have put that past us, Lowndes said.He may have recovered from the emotional toll of Bathurst but not the damage done to his championship hopes.Lowndes said the 2016 drivers title was now a two horse rrace between Holden teammates van Gisbergen and second placed Jamie Whincup.ddddddddddddWe slipped off the lead.
