Gidron Pope - Rangpur RidersWe are not going to see anyone more powerful than this kid in this World Cup or the next one , was how Ian Bishop described Gidron Pope following his blistering knocks at the top of the order in West Indies title-winning run at the Under-19 World Cup in Bangladesh earlier this year. The 19-year-old opener struck 232 runs in six innings at an average and strike rate of 38.66 and 107.90 respectively. He is also a livewire on the field, and can pitch in with right-arm offspin.Mohammad Shahzad - Rangpur RidersPlaced ninth on the ICC rankings in T20 internationals, Afghanistans Mohammad Shahzad owns the seventh-highest score and second-highest by an Associate player in T20 internationals. Shahzad is not just about brutal leg-side hoicks and the whippy helicopter shots. He is equally capable of lofting the ball in the V. With Sharjeel Khan not receiving a NOC from the PCB and asked to train for the New Zealand tour instead, Shahzad is expected to be Rangpurs key figure.Tymal Mills - Chittagong VikingsTymal Mills is among the most exciting T20 players in the world. He can bowl yorkers or bouncers at speeds north of 90mph. Ask Graeme Swann or Chris Gayle: A 94.5mph bouncer smacked Swanns arm and sent him to the hospital in 2013, while more recently at the NatWest T20 Blast, Mills yorked Gayle with a 93.3mph thunderbolt. He also has a deceptive slower ball, which will probably be more crucial on the sluggish surfaces in Bangladesh.Having prematurely retired from first-class cricket because of a congenital back condition, Mills hopes to establish himself as a potent force in T20s. He is set to play for Auckland in the Super Smash and Quetta Gladiators in the Pakistan Super League later this season.Nicholas Pooran - Khulna TitansWicketkeeper-batsman Nicholas Pooran was all of 17 when he flayed a 24-ball 54 against Guyana Amazon Warriors that had in their ranks Sunil Narine, Veerasammy Permaul, James Franklin and Mohammed Hafeez, in CPL 2013. His breakthrough CPL season, however, arrived in 2016 when he made 217 runs in eight innings at a strike rate close to 200. He went on to make his T20 debut for West Indies in the UAE in September this year, but struggled against spin - or the lack of it - in conditions not conducive to big-hitting. The BPL now gives him a chance to improve his game on this front.Evin Lewis - Dhaka DynamitesAfter scoring his first T20 hundred - 101 not out off 65 balls - in the 2015-16 Bangladesh Premier League, Evin Lewis said: Chris Gayle is my favorite. I hit a lot of sixes, big sixes like him... its a dream for me to open with him, and hopefully that will happen. He then replaced his injured idol and struck a 49-ball century, the sixth-fastest in T20Is in Lauderhill in August this year. The knock was studded with nine sixes, including five in a Stuart Binny over.Liam Dawson - Rangpur Riders A last-minute addition to the Rangpur squad, England allrounder Liam Dawson struck in each of his first three overs on T20I debut against Sri Lanka in front of his home crowd in Southampton. His figures of 3 for 27 turned out to be the best by a England spinner on T20I debut. In addition to bowling left-arm spin, Dawson can bat anywhere in the line-up. A few sparkling performances in the BPL can help him catch up with Adil Rashid, Englands first-choice spinner, in limited-overs cricket. Shoes Outlet Store .

Louis Blues teammates who would also be participating in the Olympics, Alex Pietrangelo felt right at home, no different in some ways to the travel experience of any old road trip – save for the length of the journey, that is. Air Force 1 Cheap Outlet . -- Brandon Jennings made the most of his first game with the Detroit Pistons on Sunday night. RIO DE JANEIRO -- The last guy who won the Olympic gold medal in sailings Finn class was knighted by Princess Anne at Buckingham Palace a few months after the London Olympics.So imagine the pressure on Britains Giles Scott, who at 29 is making his Olympic debut and following in the enormous wake of Ben Ainslie.And if being the overwhelming favorite wasnt heavy enough, crazily shifting and then dying wind coming off hulking Sugarloaf Mountain caused mayhem in the opening Finn race of the Rio de Janeiro Olympics on Tuesday. Scott finished 17th, which, coupled with his third place in the second race, has him sitting 10th overall.Its certainly not the way you want to start an Olympic Games, with a 17th, Scott said after coming ashore. Lets just say I wasnt particularly happy. Unfortunately these things happen in regattas and it certainly happened to me in regattas over the past four years. It certainly doesnt make things easy but theres still a lot to play for.Denmarks Jonas Hogh-Christensen, who took the silver behind Ainslie in 2012, called the first race a mockery of sport because of the big wind shift.The second race, he said, was a proper race. The first one was a bit idiotic, to be honest. They could have canned it and restarted it but I think we were under the scrutiny of being on TV.Still, the Dane is in better shape than Scott, sitting sixth overall after finishes of 13th and second. The leader is Vasilij Zbogar of Slovenia, who finished third and first.Hogh-Christensen led the whole way in 2012 until Ainslie finished ahead of him in the medals race to take the gold. It was Ainslies fourth straight gold medal and fifth medal overall, making him the most successful Olympic sailor ever.Ainslie then moved on to the Americas Cup. He helped Oracle Team USA rally to retain the Auld Mug in 2013 in one of the biggest comebacks in sports, and then started a British syndicate. Scott is a member of that team, Land Rover BAR, which hopes to win back the silver trophy that was plucked away from a British fleet by the schooner America in 1851.First, though, Scott has to figure out how to prevail on Guanabara Bay.It was tricky, Scott saiid.dddddddddddd The Sugarloaf course we were on today is notoriously difficult. The breeze comes straight down over the Sugarloaf hill there and it just provides really tricky, unpredictable winds and I think the vast majority of sailors had a good and a bad, apart from the Slovenian who did very well.Scott said he came off the starting line better in the second race than he did in the first.It was still an incredibly hard race to get through, he said. It was incredibly tight, tight, tough racing.Is he up for the challenge of sailing his way up the standings?Id better be, hadnt I? he said.How did the first race go for Hogh-Christensen?I thought I was controlling the race pretty well, he said. Then it shifted probably 30 degrees up the first beat. But I still managed to get up there, almost in first but rounded in third. Then it shifted another 35 degrees, the wind died, filled in 35 degrees from the right, lost a lot of boats in that and didnt really manage to get it right for the rest of the race and ended up 13th. There were a lot of good guys who sort of just kept going further and further back.That course will be used for the medals race on Aug. 16.In the womens Laser Radial, defending gold medalist Lijia Xu of China had a remarkable comeback, finishing third and first to jump back into first place. She had the lead after the first two races Monday, but was disqualified from the second race after a protest hearing, dropping her to 38th.In the mens Laser, Robert Scheidt of Brazil had a 27th and fourth and dropped to eighth overall. Hes trying to become the first sailor and first Brazilian to win six Olympic medals.Both windsurfer classes tightened up. Britains Nick Dempsey went 1-4-14 to keep the lead, but its by only one point over defending gold medalist Dorian van Rijsselberghe of the Netherlands, who went 4-1-1. In womens windsurfing, Flavia Tartaglini of Italy went 1-1-4 to take the lead from Frances Charline Picon (4-5-10).---Follow Bernie Wilson on Twitter at http://twitter.com/berniewilson ' ' '
