The batter is still trying to get better and will take it “one tour at a time”

On the day Steven Smith went past Don Bradman with his 30th Test century, he admitted to being uncertain about how long his international career will continue.Smith’s 104 in Sydney was just his second hundred against South Africa in 12 matches – for an opponent he has played more than twice he holds his lowest average against them – yet it ended in frustration as he missed out on “happy hour” by giving Keshav Maharaj a return catch.While there is no doubt Smith will be in Australia’s plans for their upcoming series against India and England during the first half of this year, he said he was taking his career in small stages now.Related

“I don’t know, we’ll see,” he said when asked about his future. “I’m enjoying it at the moment. I really can’t say how long I’ll play for, I’m not sure. Take it one tour at a time, enjoy it, enjoy training and trying to get better. Whilst I’m doing that I’m happy playing, but don’t know how long it will last.”While personal success remains a major driver for Smith, he is equally motivated to help Australia’s next generation for when he and David Warner are no longer around – which may be sooner rather than later.”It’s [about] trying to get better, help the team win games of cricket,” he said. “Think we’ve played some really good cricket the last 12 months…we’ve got two really big hurdles in front of us with India and the Ashes. For me, it is trying to get better and trying to help some of the other batters coming through.”I still try to help Marnus [Labuschagne] as much as possible, [Travis] Head, Cameron Green, Matty Renshaw, Marcus Harris…try to impart as much knowledge of conditions and ways to go about. If I can say something and you see that lightbulb go on and someone figures something out I get a big thrill out of that. I’ll try and help them as much as I can.”Smith said he was not worried about being beaten on the outside half of the bat and went back and across to balls coming back in•Cricket Australia via Getty Images
Smith’s personal drive to improve has been evident in the last 12 months as he has re-engineered his technique back to an earlier model where he moves less in the crease. This century followed the double he made against West Indies in Perth, although it was not an entirely fluent affair and after 55 balls he had 12 runs.”It’s not going to be perfect every time,” he said. “So when you aren’t feeling as good as you’d like you just try to grind it out, get through that initial period then hopefully things get easier. I didn’t feel great my first 60-70 balls, I reckon, then things started to click and feel a lot better. Pleased I was able to get through that initial period.”Yet, even within the innings itself Smith was making adjustments, reverting to the jump across the crease when facing Marco Jansen’s reverse swing from around the wicket. “Went back to my old set-up, [or] my old, old set-up,” he joked.”I didn’t feel overly threatened on the outside of the bat,” he added. “I was getting back and across just to cover the ball coming back in at me. I’d rather do it out there…rather than come back in the sheds and wonder why I didn’t do that. Felt I could still get my weight back through the ball.”After a cheeky celebration involving a chainsaw aimed at Labuschagne, Smith was ready to reset himself but fell three balls later to a leading edge. Disappointment was writ large over his face which he later explained was the frustration at missing out on a chance to experiment with some more aggressive strokeplay with an eye on the India tour.”I just missed out on happy hour, was time to go playing some shots as Heady just did,” he said. “Was time to have some fun. I was actually going to start practicing a few things, potentially like sweeping and things like that, with our upcoming Indian tour. I know that sounds bad in a way, but felt like it was an opportunity to do that against some good spinners.”For Smith that tour represents one of the pinnacles to reach this year. How much more there is to follow for him, only time will tell.

The Gunners will take on Newcastle United over two semi-final legs, home and away, with the hope of overcoming Eddie Howe’s side and booking a place at Wembley Stadium next year.
“Really happy, we’re in the semi-final,” said Arteta on Arsenal’s 3-2 win over Crystal Palace.
“The game started in a way that we certainly didn’t want to with a very simple goal and then our team had to react and I think we did in a great way, showed a lot of character, so much desire to turn things around. In the first half we lacked some threat, we created two or three big chances but didn’t score and with a few adjustments in the second half we got a grip of the game again and we looked a threat.
“If we don’t win, to win the next one is really important, to win it in a difficult situation, different context, they played with their starting eleven as well, they get that momentum going and we’re able to break it, over commit and win the game. Really pleased, it’s very helpful for Saturday.”
Left-back Kieran Tierney also made his first appearance for Arsenal since their Community Shield win over Man City in 2023, after recently being reintroduced to the senior matchday squad by Arteta.

Tierney put in an impressive display against Palace during his 69-minute cameo at the Emirates, with FotMob (via 90min) giving him a 7.3/10 match rating and listing him as one of Arsenal’s best performers on the night.
Kieran Tierney prioritising return to Celtic from Arsenal in January
The outing comes just in time for the looming winter transfer market, as the £120,000-per-week defender reminds potential suitors just what he’s truly capable of.
Tierney has been regularly tipped to leave Arsenal in the build-up to January, and a return to Celtic is believed to be on the cards as he eyes a move back up north.
According to The Boot Room, Tierney is prioritising a move back to Celtic over any other potential move.
The 27-year-old is apparently “only” interested in re-joining Brendan Rodgers at Parkhead if he is to leave Arsenal next month, but either way, Tierney’s time at the club will end by the beginning of next season.
David Ornstein shared news this week that Arteta’s side have elected not to trigger the one-year extension clause in his contract, meaning that the ex-Celtic star is set to leave as a free agent in the summer if he doesn’t secure a switch in the coming weeks.

ونشرت صحيفة “سبورت” الإسبانية أن نادي جالطة سراي يرغب في التعاقد مع الدولي الألماني تير شتيجن ضمن خطة الإدارة لتعزيز الفريق خلال الموسم المقبل.
وكان النادي التركي قد تعاقد مع الألماني الآخر ليروى ساني، قادمًا من بايرن ميونخ، لزيادة كفاءة الفريق وليكن قادرًا على منافسة كبار الفرق على البطولات الأوروبية.
ووفقًا لما ذكرته الصحيفة الإسبانية، فإن جالطة سراي يريد التعاقد مع شتيجن مبدئيًا على سبيل الإعارة لمدة عام مع أحقية الشراء، خاصةً مع إبداء اللاعب الموافقة المبدئية على بدء المفاوضات بين الناديين.

KS Bharat, the back-up wicketkeeper to Rishabh Pant in the main Test squad, will also link-up with the India A squad ahead of the second four-day fixture from December 6-9 in Sylhet. The first four-day match will be played in Cox’s Bazaar from November 29 to December 2.Elsewhere, there was a maiden India A call-up for Kerala’s Rohan Kunnummal, who has had a superb initiation in first-class cricket.

Like Kunnummal, Dhull, too, has had an impressive red-ball initiation, having already hit four first-class centuries in six matches. Dhull, India’s Under-19 World Cup-winning captain from 2022, has already hit hundreds on debut in the Ranji Trophy and Duleep Trophy.Jaiswal has been equally prolific, becoming the joint-fastest Indian to 1000 first-class runs in September, getting to the mark in only 13 innings, equally-fastest with Amol Muzumdar and Rusi Modi. Earlier this year, he hit twin hundreds in the Ranji semi-final and backed that up with another century in the final against Madhya Pradesh. Overall, Jaiswal has five centuries and a half-century in seven first-class games at an impressive average of 84.58.The inclusion of Jaiswal and Dhull, both of whom open, meant there was no place for Priyank Panchal, the Gujarat opener, who had led India A during their previous assignment at home against New Zealand A in August-September.Tilak Varma, who gave a good assessment of himself in the first red-ball game against New Zealand A with a century, retains his place in the middle order alongside Sarfaraz Khan, another prolific run-getter in domestic cricket.Mukesh Kumar, who was the joint leading wicket-taker in the three games, also keeps his place, alongside Saurabh Kumar, the left-arm spinner.

The Hammers need a new striker.
ByEmilio Galantini Dec 3, 2024
The former Spain and Real Madrid boss did himself absolutely no favours with their 5-2 humiliation at the hands of Arsenal on Saturday, with all seven of those goals scored inside 45 minutes, equalling a Premier League record.
It was a frustrating night for Lopetegui, who was forced to watch on from the stands as his West Ham side failed to implement the very basics of defending at times.

Unsurprisingly, reports have since emerged linking the 58-year-old with his P45, as former Porto boss Conceicao becomes a serious contender to succeed Lopetegui.
West Ham reportedly sounded out Conceicao – who won an incredible 11 major trophies at the Primeira Liga side before departing in the summer – long before now, but multiple overnight reports from reliable media outlets like talkSPORT and The Guardian have put real weight behind the 50-year-old’s potential appointment.
Conceicao also took a lot of inspiration for his own style from Liverpool during the Jurgen Klopp era, lavishing praise on the Reds all the way back in 2019.
“Liverpool give me all what I like about football. In terms of their players and the way they play in the game,” said Conceicao (via The Telegraph).
“I like the Liverpool dynamics. I like the Liverpool game model. I like the way they play and the way they are with the ball – and also without it. It is similar to how I see football and in a lot of these moments in a game, they are the best team in the world.”
Conceicao, who won honours at Standard Liege in Belgium as well, is a very experienced tactician and boasts many seasons in the Champions League – which could be an enticing draw for supporters.
He is also currently a free agent, but he isn’t the only illustrious manager available right now, as West Ham also eye former Juventus and AC Milan boss Massimiliano Allegri.
Allegri contending to replace Lopetegui at West Ham with Conceicao
According to The Guardian and Jacob Steinberg, Allegri is also contending to replace Lopetegui at West Ham.
The 57-year-old is currently a free agent after leaving Juventus, and his time in Serie A was certainly memorable. Allegri helped Juve to dominate Italian football for a period – winning five Scudettos in a row from 2014 to 2019 – with the Italian also guiding AC Milan to a title in 2011.
He won five Coppa Italia’s and three Italian super cups during his time in Italy as well, reaching two Champions League finals, and he was sacked by Juve just two days after guiding them to one of their Italian cup wins earlier this year.
كشف أحمد سيد زيزو لاعب فريق الكرة بنادي الأهلي، تفاصيل مفاوضاته مع ستيفن جيرارد أثناء تدريبه لـ فريق الاتفاق السعودي من أجل ضمه خلال الموسم المنقضي، من الزمالك.
وكان الأهلي قد أعلن اليوم الجمعة عن إتمام التعاقد مع أحمد سيد زيزو في صفقة انتقال حر بعد انتهاء عقده مع الزمالك.
وقال أحمد سيد زيزو في تصريحات تلفزيونية عبر قناة “إم بي سي مصر 2”: “في يناير 2025، تحدثت مع جيرارد، المدير الفني لنادي الاتفاق، وأبلغني أنه يرغب في ضمي إلى فريقه، وقال إنه تحدث عني مع محمد صلاح”.
وتابع: “أخبرت جيرارد أن موافقة الزمالك ضرورية، وأنني لا أستطيع الرحيل في هذا التوقيت، وطلبت منهم التفاوض مع الزمالك”.
زيزو: “كوبري” من أجل الأهلي؟ الزمالك يعمل اللي عليه الأول.. وهذه قصة الـ100 مليون
وأكمل: “وصل العرض إلى 2 أو 2.5 مليون دولار، وكان عرضًا جيدًا لأنه جاء قبل ستة أشهر من نهاية عقدي، وظل مفوض نادي الاتفاق السعودي في مصر لمدة يومين أو ثلاثة، لكن لم يوافق أحد من الزمالك على مقابلته”.
وواصل: “لم أقم بالتوقيع مع الأهلي على عقود في يناير الماضي، وعلى مدار ثمانية أشهر، استمرت الإساءة لسمعتي، رغم أنني لم أتسبب في أي مشكلة معهم خلال 6 سنوات، وواجهت حملات ممنهجة ضدي وضد والدي، بادعاء أنه يطلب عمولات”.
واختتم: “عندما جددت مع حسين لبيب أول مرة، والدي لم يحصل على أي عمولة، ولم يطلب أي عمولة في حياته من الزمالك، كيف يظهر بهذه الصورة، اسأل مرتضى منصور هل والدي حصل على مبلغ مالي مقابل توقيعي للزمالك، وأول مرة جددت للأبيض مقابل 9 ملايين جنيه وتلقيت في الخارج 4 ملايين دولار”.

We will always appreciate and honour the unwavering passion Krish showed to uplift our beautiful game.”
