“Like Jaddu, he is a three-dimensional cricketer” – Matthew Hayden picks Pakistan’s key spinner for World Cup 2023 – Sportskeeda

Matthew Hayden has picked Shadab Khan as Pakistan’s key spinner for the 2023 World Cup, highlighting that he excels in all three departments, as Ravindra Jadeja does for India.

The 50-over global event will be played in India from October 5 to November 19. India will lock horns with Pakistan in their third match of the tournament at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on October 15.

During a discussion on Star Sports, Hayden was asked to pick Pakistan’s key spinner for the World Cup, considering that the Australian was part of their coaching setup during the last two T20 World Cups. The former opener chose Shadab Khan, reasoning:

“Shadab Khan is a fantastic player. He is an individual of absolute quality. Like Jaddu (Ravindra Jadeja), he is a three-dimensional cricketer.”

Hayden added:

“He is a dangerous hitter with the bat. He has got the variations with the ball and he is also a wonderful fielder, and just one further point around this — you win World Cups by fielding efforts.”

Shadab has amassed 631 runs at a decent strike rate of 82.05 in 33 ODI innings. He has scalped 73 wickets at a reasonable economy rate of 5.13 in the 54 innings that he has bowled in ODI cricket.

The spin-bowling all-rounder dished out an all-round performance, scoring a 22-ball 52 and scalping two wickets, in Pakistan’s must-win group-stage clash against South Africa in last year’s T20 World Cup. He also ran out Devon Conway with a direct hit from mid-off to help his side register a win against New Zealand in the semi-finals.


“They are the little things that you don’t see” – Matthew Hayden on the importance of fielding in the World Cup

MS Dhoni’s run-out in the 2019 World Cup semi-final was a game-defining moment.

Matthew Hayden highlighted the significance of fielding in the World Cup:

“They are the little things that you don’t see, that make a big difference in tournament cricket. Under pressure, those catches around the boundaries, those specially unique run-outs that happen, they are the things that will never really be statistically noted in the World Cup.”

The cricketer-turned-commentator concluded by observing that athletism in the field gives the edge to sides like Australia:

“That’s why sides like Australia are really dangerous because they combine really well under pressure in the one thing, an element of cricket which is the most selfless, and that’s effort in the field.”

Fielding played a significant role in the West Indies’ 17-run win against Australia in the inaugural World Cup final in 1975. Five Australian batters were run out, with Vivian Richards‘ throws finding three of their top four — Alan Turner, Greg Chappell, and Ian Chappell — short of the crease.

Rebel elite soldiers overthrew president Mohamed Bazoum on July 26 and have since detained him at home with his family.

Negotiations to restore civilian rule have yet to bear fruit, with the junta demanding a three-year transition and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) calling for the immediate return of the democratically elected Bazoum.

The coup has also been strongly criticised by Western governments and global bodies such as the UN, which is holding its General Assembly of world leaders in New York this week.

In a news release read on public television, the military said UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres “went astray in the exercise of his mission by obstructing Niger‘s full participation in the 78th session of the UN General Assembly”.

It criticised “the perfidious actions” of the UN leader, adding that they were “likely to undermine any effort to end the crisis in our country”.

Bakary Yaou Sangare, who before the coup was Niger’s ambassador to the UN and is now its foreign minister, was the new leaders’ chosen representative for the gathering.

But, according to a diplomatic source, there was also an application by the overthrown government to represent Niamey.

“In case of competing credentials from a Member State the secretary-general defers the matter to the Credentials Committee of the General Assembly who will deliberate on the matter,” Guterres’ spokesman Stephane Dujarric said.

“The secretary-general does not decide.”

Because the committee will not meet until later, no representative from Niger was added to the speakers’ list.

Niger “forcefully rejects and denounces this clear interference by Mr Guterres in the internal affairs of a sovereign state”, the junta said.

Worries over Sahel 

One of the world’s poorest nations, Niger is the fourth country in West Africa to suffer a coup since 2020, following Burkina Faso, Guinea and Mali.

Bazoum’s removal heightened international worries over the Sahel region, which faces growing jihadist insurgencies linked to Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State group.

Regional sanctions since the coup mean food and medicines are scarce in landlocked Niger, prices are skyrocketing and there are blackouts after Nigeria cut electricity supplies.

Senegal‘s President Macky Sall said on Thursday a diplomatic solution in Niger was “still possible”.

“I hope that reason will ultimately prevail… that it is still possible to move forward reasonably to a solution,” Sall said in an interview with France’s RFI and France 24 media outlets.

He urged Niger’s coup leaders “to not push (us) to the final decision which would be a military intervention”.

The military leaders of Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger signed a mutual defence pact this month, saying they aimed to “establish an architecture of collective defence and mutual assistance for the benefit of our populations”.

Stand Out From The Crowd

If you happen to be in business and you are not well conversant with the 4 P’s of Marketing, then you are likely to dismally fail, sooner rather than later. In modern day business, the 4 P’s are the traditional and universal cornerstones of Marketing, which are inextricably interrelated. In Marketing, for anything you are selling to be highly competitive, in any given market, it must be, the right Product or service, being offered at the right Place, selling at the right Price, using the right Promotional Marketing Mix. In this marketing tip, I am briefly going to solely dwell on the Promotion aspect, which is an equally significant component of the 4 P’s of the Marketing Mix When you offer products on the market, you must ensure that you adequately educate your potential, as well as your target market, so that your products will become very intimately known and easily identifiable by your customers, from a myriad of other competing products and services on sale. It goes without saying, that this is why your product must “Stand Out From The Crowd”, for your business to remain relevant, lest it will be driven into oblivion.
