Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is MS Dhoni selfish? Are we seeing another case of extended career? These are some of the questions, which are being asked by fans, calling on Dhoni to retire from T20 internationals. There are few former Indian cricketers, who are jumping now and then, waiting to see MS Dhoni flop in a game or two in order to justify and test their knowledge of cricket. It is understood that MS Dhoni is expected to win games for his team but in this competitive world, continuity is the hardest thing to achieve and being human, Dhoni is bound to fail. Making him villain or asking for his place just after one game is the stupidest act one can expect from former Indian cricketers like Ajit Agarkar. Is there anyone ready to replace this Indian maestro? When we look at the bench strength, Team India has not found a wicketkeeper batsman, who can contributed like Dhoni. Virat Kohli has to be in news. Be it his on-field performance or off-field chemistry with Anushka Sharma, he is making headlines on daily basis. It is not surprising to see him performing, scoring centuries after centuries as this is what he is good at in cricket but the rate at which he is scoring runs is surely causing headache to statisticians.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unstoppable is the only word which can define Shikhar Dhawan at the moment. Going hard at the bowlers, scoring runs freely and making sure of his team’s triumph are Dhawan’s tirades in international cricket. If his performance in the Champions Trophy was exceptional, the batting display in Sri Lanka is beyond explanation. Pretty much like him, his captain is also making headlines because of his habit of winning games for India while chasing any total. Michael Bevan was arguably the most feared finisher in the game during his career but Virat Kohli has not just simply taken the art of the chase to another level, but he is playing a completely different sport. Moving on from him, there is good news for Pakistan after the ICC gave them a green signal to the proposed World Series in Pakistan. With the arrival of World Series, there is every chance of seeing some action in Pakistan. There is much more to read from cricket in this issue.

Download or read book Race Sport and British Society written by Ben Carrington and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-01-04 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrary to the popular belief that sport is an arena largely free from the corrosive effects of racism, this book argues that racism is evident throughout British sport. From playing fields and boardrooms of sports organisations, to the offices of sports policy makers and the media, this book breaks new ground in showing how discourses of 'race' and nation continue to pervade our sporting life. Looking at a range of sports, including football, rugby league and cricket, this book covers key topics such as: * British nationalism and nationalist ideology * racial science and the images of Asian and black physicality * sport, racism and the law * black feminism and the issues of race, gender and sport * the role of the media in perpetuating and challenging racial stereotypes. Challenging the prevailing liberal view that sport is one area of society where 'good race-relations' are developed, this book offers a wealth of research material, and a strong theoretical perspective on contemporary British sport. It will therefore be of vital interest to sociologists, sports studies students, sport policy-makers and anyone with an interest in contemporary British sport.

This book was released on 2020-07-08 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about WAR--not the causes and results, not the planning and the campaigns, not the artillery and the bombs. It is about the heinous crimes committed by the combatants, the horrifying experiences of civilians, the devastation of cities and villages, the killing and the dying, the glory leading to revulsion and guilt, and the assimilation of suffering that either ends in death or in the triumph of the soul. It looks at the struggle of the church to remain faithful and the servants of the church who seek to bring sense and solace to the victims. It discusses antisemitism, racism, and war itself from biblical perspectives. It reveals the unjustifiable reasons for engaging in war and how this brings catastrophic results for all peoples--the mental instability of the survivors and the loss and grief of those on the home front. In war, how can men and women carry out the actions that they do? As Viktor Frankl writes: "After all, man is that being who has invented the gas chambers of Auschwitz; however, he is also that being who has entered those gas chambers upright, with the Lord's Prayer or the Shema Yisrael on his lips."
