4 in 4 for GAW on home turf

Guyana Amazon Warriors completed the perfect set of home victories in the Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL) with a comprehensive defeat of the table-topping Barbados Royals.

The victory means the two teams will do it all again on Tuesday in the first qualifier.

The Amazon Warriors won the toss and opted to field first, and that proved to be an inspired decision. On a fresh surface their seamers wreaked havoc taking three wickets inside the PowerPlay to leave the Royals in disarray.

Wickets continued to fall at regular intervals and the 125 the Royals mustered was never likely to be enough on a track that offered good value for positive stroke play.

The Royals were able to take two early wickets of their own when they had their turn to bowl restricting the Amazon Warriors to 18/2 but that was as good as it got.

Shakib Al-Hasan produced a scintillating half century to put the Amazon Warriors on the cusp of victory and the remaining batters saw the chase home to win the game inside 15 overs.

Earlier Guyana Amazon Warriors had utilised the movement on offer to unleash their cadre of seamers on the Royals. Romario Shepherd, Keemo Paul and Odean Smith all weighed in with wickets to leave the Royals 97/9 and it was only late cameos from Ramon Simmonds and Mujeeb Ur Rahman that enabled the Royals to post 125.

Although the Amazon Warriors lost Chandrapaul Hemraj and Shai Hope in the PowerPlay, Shakib played an enterprising innings to take the drama out of the chase. His knock of 53 came off 30 balls and laid the foundation for the Amazon Warriors to win with five over to spare.

The two sides will now do battle again in the first qualifier on Tuesday to determine who will earn the right to go straight to the Hero CPL final.

Rihanna To Headline Super Bowl Half-Time Show – St. Lucia Times News

Black Immigrant Daily News

“A person born on the small island of Barbados who became one of the most prominent artists ever. Self-made in business and entertainment,” he added.

Rihanna’s move marks a sharp about turn from the singer, who turned down an offer to headline the show in 2019 to show solidarity with the NFL star Colin Kaepernick.

A former starting quarterback with the San Francisco 49ers, Kaepernick hasn’t played in the league since 2016 after his decision to kneel during the pre-game national anthem helped to launch a global movement against racism.

He later filed a lawsuit against the NFL, alleging that the leagues owner’s were colluding to exile him from the sport.

Rihanna said at the time that she would have been an “enabler” if she had accepted the slot.

“I just couldn’t be a sell-out,” she told Vogue magazine. “There’s things within that organisation that I do not agree with at all, and I was not about to go and be of service to them in any way.”

Earlier this week, US media reported that Taylor Swift had turned down an offer to headline the show, choosing instead to continue re-recording several albums.

Swift announced plans last year to re-release her first six albums to have complete control over her music. The move followed the 2019 acquisition of her master recordings by music mogul Scooter Braun and his subsequent sale of them to an investment fund.

La France s’est fait concasser 2-0 par le Danemark, dimanche à Copenhague, et ne doit son maintien dans l’élite de la Ligue des nations qu’à la défaite de l’Autriche, une maigre consolation pour des champions du monde peu fringants à deux mois du Qatar.

Les Bleus étaient certes affaiblis par une cohorte de blessés avant le choc face à la “Danish Dynamite”, séduisante demi-finaliste du dernier Euro, mais ils avaient suffisamment de réserve pour espérer réduire au silence le bruyant Parken et ses quelque 36.000 supporters rouge et blanc.

Las, les hommes de Didier Deschamps ont souffert face aux coups de boutoir adverses, coulant même avant la mi-temps devant Kasper Dolberg (34e) et Andreas Skov Olsen (39e).

C’est une bien triste dernière sortie qu’ont livré les Bleus avant le grand départ pour Doha, où ils recroiseront la route des Danois le 26 novembre pour leur deuxième match du Mondial.

Heureusement pour eux, la Croatie de Luka Modric est allée s’imposer à Vienne dans le même temps, ce qui précipite l’Autriche en Ligue B de la Ligue des nations, l’équivalent de la deuxième division, plutôt que la France qui compte un point de plus.

La campagne des Bleus était partie de travers en juin, après quatre matches sans victoire, et la victoire jeudi contre l’Autriche (2-0) n’aura été qu’un trompe-l’oeil, une rare éclaircie dans la grisaille.

La série noire est rare pour la bande à Deschamps, aussi sombre que la cascade de blessés qui a accompagné cette rentrée des classes, de Paul Pogba à N’Golo Kanté, en passant par Hugo Lloris, Presnel Kimpembe, les frères Theo et Lucas Hernandez, Kingsley Coman et Karim Benzema.

Camavinga, retour raté

Dans ce contexte, le patron des Bleus a misé sur une équipe beaucoup moins expérimentée qu’à l’accoutumée, peuplée de joueurs ayant pour certains une pression énorme sur les épaules: celle de séduire pour intégrer la liste du Mondial, attendue dans la semaine du 7 novembre.

Du haut de ses 19 ans, Eduardo Camavinga a renfilé le bleu de chauffe pour la première fois en deux ans, avec un résultat peu reluisant. Le milieu du Real Madrid a perdu des ballons, manqué d’impact et créé trop peu d’occasions.

Deschamps l’a même remplacé à la mi-temps par Youssouf Fofana qui, trois jours après son baptême de l’air, s’est montré plus consistant aux côtés d’Aurélien Tchouaméni. Ce dernier fait partie, a contrario, des Bleus qui montent depuis plusieurs mois, peu importe ses binômes (Pogba, Kanté, Guendouzi, Kamara, Rabiot…).

A Copenhague, la vague rouge a submergé par séquences la jeune garde tricolore qui, au coup d’envoi, comptait cinq sélections en moyenne avec le gardien Alphonse Areola et les trois arrières centraux Dayot Upamecano (23 ans), Benoît Badiashile et William Saliba (21 ans), ce dernier étant remplacé dès la pause.

Les coups de pied arrêtés et les centres ont fusé et l’absence des remparts habituels, Lloris (forfait en septembre) et Raphaël Varane (remplaçant), s’est remarquée.

Devant, les attaquants n’ont pas trouvé la clé pour tromper Kasper Schmeichel, élu joueur du match, à l’image de la double occasion de Kylian Mbappé à la 67e minute, contrecarrée par le gardien de Nice.

Porteur du brassard pour la première fois, Antoine Griezmann n’a pas eu plus de chance (15e, 70e). Olivier Giroud est lui resté à 49 buts, à deux unités du record de Thierry Henry, sans que l’on sache encore s’il aura l’occasion d’approcher encore la marque de son aîné.

Deschamps maintient le suspense sur l’avenir international du buteur de l’AC Milan, 36 ans la semaine prochaine. Le sélectionneur a maintes fois répété qu’il était “difficile” humainement pour le champion du monde d’être cantonné désormais à un rôle de doublure de Karim Benzema, actuellement forfait.

En tout cas, les interrogations ne manquent pas avant l’annonce de la liste pour le Mondial. Et les inquiétudes, non plus.
