Sports Bulletin Report ISLAMABAD:-It took some time for the German side to find their rhythm in their 2022 FIH Pro League opener against France in Potchefstroom, South Africa. Two penalty corner goals from Tom Grambusch in the final quarter were enough to hold off a tired but resilient French side. Niklas Wellen’s presence up front earned him Player of the Match honours, while Timothée Clément was as equal to the task for France. For les Bleus, it was their sixth-straight game in eight days, while Germany was coming off an indoor season and their last Pro League match was in October 2021. A young German side ventured south without the typical talents of Lukas Windfelder, Tobias Hauke, Christopher Ruhr and Florian Fucks on hand. Despite that, recently named captain Mats Grambusch was proud of their team saying after the game: ‘We have been here for a week now and the altitude, weather we are not used to that in Germany. We had to get used to it and we knew it was a new group here with young players and then you have to get in to your groove. We needed time to do that. We want to do it better tomorrow against South Africa but I’m really, really pleased with our performance as we go the three points and want to go far in the Pro League.’ Germany were quick to put France on their heels. Mats Grambusch drew the game’s opening penalty corner just two minutes into the game. Younger brother Tom Grambusch couldn’t get enough behind his flick to beat Arthur Thieffry in the France goal. While France spent much of the get-going defending their 23-meter area, they did have chances of their own. Timothée Clément received a cross-field aerial deep in the German circle but his blast from a tight angle went wide of the German goal. The Germans kept knocking when Wellen’s sharp cut into the French circle allowed Thiez Prinz a clear look at goal but the ball rocketed past the left post. In the final minute of the quarter it was Niklas Bosserhoff who beat two defenders and cut into the circle. The ball instended as a paced pass in to traffic took a touch off defender Amaury Bellenger and beat Thieffry over his right shoulder. In the second quarter Tom Grambusch and Justus Weigand each had penalty corner attempts but some strong running and solid clears from Thieffry kept the Germans at bay. France’s best chance fell for Blaise Rogeau in the 26th minute but the reverse-stick shot sailed wide of the net. Germany sat on their 1-0 lead heading into half time. Credit to youngster Clément who drew France’s first penalty corner in the opening minutes of the third quarter. The very same Clément then unleashed a rocket of a drag flick but Alexander Stadler did well to block it. Francois Goyet was the beneficiary of two rebound attempts but the first was blocked by Stadler and the second went high over the goal. It was a game of set-pieces that made the difference as Germany continued to struggle to convert while France from three attempts were able to draw level. It was again Clément who unleashed a flick that split the right post and the German post-player. The goal gave France the confidence to really go after points from the No. 6-ranked Germany. In the final quarter Germany went to work as Tom Grambusch was able to find his strides at the top of the circle firing a penalty corner flick in between Thieffry and Charles Masson and give Germany the 2-1 lead. Thieffry was called to action again denying another Tom Grambusch flick in the 57th minute before he subbed off to give France 11 field players to chase down a tying goal. Unforced errors in midfield lead to a Luis Gill run and an eventual pair of penalty corners for Germany. The first was saved on the line by Clément but the second off Tom Grambusch’s stick was too powerful and deflected off Clément’s stick and in for a 3-1 Germany lead. Credit to the French who never backed down. Clément sent an aerial from the half-way line to a streaking Simon Martin-Brisac. A nifty pass across the circle beat Stadler and Etienne Tynevez volleyed the ball in for the consolation goal. Germany take their first three points of the year, while the French side remained proud of their performance in a grueling series of Pro League match ups. Following the game, Niklas Wellen was named Player of the Match.

Bipin Dani Sri Lanka's top order batsman Bhanuka Rajapaksa is available for the upcoming India tour, it is learnt, after he passed the required fitness tests. "He did the fitness tests on Monday at the Sugathadasa Stadium. He completed the 2-km run in 8 minutes and 35 seconds,” a source close to the player said. "He appeared for all the fitness tests including running and skin-fold.” Rajapaksa was not considered for the Australia tour where a series of five T20Is is being played, having announced his retirement from international cricket, only to reverse it days later after meeting Sports Minister Namal Rajapaksa. "Though most of the players are scheduled to travel to India directly from Australia, selectors are giving thought to sending him from Colombo and he may be selected for the three T20I to be played ahead of the two Test matches,” another source in Sri Lanka, said. Interestingly, Bhanuka Rajapaksa is the only batter from Sri Lanka selected to play in the IPL. The other four players who were bought are predominantly recognized for their bowling.

Sports Bulletin ISLAMABAD:-A two-goal opening quarter haunted South Africa as they dropped at 4-1 decision to France in the teams’ first-ever meeting in the FIH Pro League. Gaspard Baumgarten was named Player of the Match as he buried two goals, while teammates Blaise Rogeau and Timothée Clément also tallied in the win. South Africa’s Dayaan Cassiem was unlucky to only tally once as he also hit a cross bar in the final quarter. France’s Baumgarten said after the win: “I’m not too much a striker but happy to score today and even more happy for the win of the team. We are really happy (with their overall performance in South Africa). We played great hockey and tried to play better and better each game which was the purpose for being here.” It was clear from the opening whistle that France was keen to pick up from their second and third games last week that saw them tie the Netherlands and beat the Olympic bronze medalists, India. They wasted little time getting to work as three minutes in and France had a penalty corner. Moments later a flurry of shots put the South Africans under pressure. The final shot by Baumgarten took a touch off South African Nduduzo Lembethe and the ball popped through the legs of keeper Gowan Jones for the opening marker. South Africa’s Nqobile Ntuli had the best chance of the half for the hosts but the back-hand shot pinged off the post in the seventh minute. France doubled their lead in the 11th minute. Eliot Curty charged alone down the right side and his sweeping pass was deflected well by a diving Francois Goyet’s reverse stick. Blaise Rogeau was there at the near post to finish the pretty counterattack play and seal the 2-0 lead for France. Estiaan Kriek subbed into the South African net after the opening break and he punched away a brilliant shot from Baumgarten in the 17th minute to leave the game still 2-0 by half time. France, though clinical in execution, looked to relax their tempo in the third quarter. South Africa forced a number of turnovers and created lots of counter-attack play but failed to find any kind of finish. Despite the casual play of France, they were nonetheless clinical when they entered the South African circle. Matéo Desgouilllons forced a close-range save out of Gowan Jones in the 34th minute. The teams then spent a good seven minutes trading away sloppy turnovers but France were able to find their strides in the 41st. A brilliant deceptive pass from Stanislas Branicki paced the ball out to the right side and the pass came firing in to Baumgarten. The shot needed a deflection from defender Leneal Jackson to give France a 3-0 lead. Dayaan Cassiem had a chance to get South Africa on the board with minutes to go in the third quarter but his blast booked for the top shelf was seen the whole way by the blocker of Arthur Thieffry. The final quarter really sided with South Africa. Nqobile Ntuli and Cassium brothers Dayaan and Mustapha were combining dangerously up, but still without result. Dayaan then put on a show dancing his way with 3D skills past four French defenders only to leave Ryan Julius with a shot at goal but the ball blasted wide left of the net. France found their fourth goal on an aerial ball that allowed a baseline entry for Gaspar Xavier. His pass was sent into traffic for Clément to knock in and France took the lead 4-0. South Africa stayed in it and denied Timothée Clement’s penalty corner with a goalline save from Nicholas Spooner, while Dayaan Cassiem hit a cross-bar moment. It was a sign of what was to come as Mustapha set up his brother Dayaan to break the France shutout with three minutes to go in the game. It was too little, too late and France finished with the 4-1 victory and their second set of three points in their opening tour of the FIH Pro League. South African captain Horne said after the loss: “We had a quite a few chances and it’s a pity they didn’t go in. The French are very clinical and they did well and if you can’t score you can’t win. We will do our analysis after the game. There’s lots to take out of it. We had a lot of soft turnovers but they were just very clinical.” The two teams will dual again on Sunday, February 20 after playing games against Germany who join them in Potchestfstroom.

Bipin Dani Nepal's 21-year-old wicketkeeper Aasif Sheikh has earned great praise and appreciation for refusing to run out Ireland’s Andy McBrine, who fell mid-pitch after colliding with the bowler while running a single. In the recent Oman Quadrangular T20I series involving Ireland and Nepal saw a sporting gesture as Sheikh gave McBrine a reprieve even though the batter was well short of the crease when the wicketkeeper collected the ball. "Actually, the batsman was running in his own line and our bowler accidentally got crashed into him but then I decided not to run him out", Aasif Sheikh, speaking exclusively over the telephone from Oman, said. "I have been playing cricket for many years and the only thing I have learnt is to play fair cricket, no matter if we win or lose. For us, the results don't really matter, we will play fair cricket in any situation". There are altogether six in his family and his elder brother (Mohammad Aarif Sheikh) also plays for the national team. "Our parents have played the most vital role in our cricket journey. It would not have been possible without their support. They gave us everything we needed.  We were not that financially strong but somehow they managed to provide us with a cricket kit so that we could focus on our game", Aasif Sheikh signed off.
