James Anderson, Ben Stokes and Adil Rashid have been named in an expanded 14-man England squad for the second Test against Pakistan at Old Trafford.Anderson and Stokes are included after recovering from injury, having played against each other in the County Championship match at Southport, but it is the inclusion of Rashid, the legspinner, that is the most intriguing name.Rashid offers England both the possibility of playing two spinners or the option of dropping Moeen Ali, who endured a poor game at Lords and has a bowling average of 92 in seven Tests this year. In seven County Championship matches this season, Rashid has taken 20 wickets at 35.30 and scored 337 runs at 37.44.Rashid played in all three of the Tests between England and Pakistan in the UAE before Christmas. While he bounced back from first-innings figures of 0 for 163 to claim 5 for 64 in his second innings on debut, to take England within sight of victory, he was less successful in the other two games and finished with a bowling average of 69.50 from the series. Fielding two spinners against a side especially proficient at playing spin bowling might prove a risk. Speaking before the squad was confirmed, England coach Trevor Bayliss said: Pakistan have just the one left-hander in their top-order with the ball spinning into the right-handers. Getting the ball spinning the ball away from the bat might make it a little more difficult so Im sure that will be discussedWe want to pick the best spinners we have. Weve had a couple of guys playing over the last 12 months or so who are deemed the best spinners in England. Weve got to make do with what weve got.James Vince, who is averaging 18.66 with the bat after four Tests, is also retained, but there is no place for the Middlesex seamer Toby Roland-Jones, who was called into the Lords squad in the absence of Anderson and Stokes.Anderson bowled 22 overs against Durham, taking 3 for 58, having been ruled out of the first Test after suffering a stress fracture of his right shoulder blade although he had come very close to playing but the majority of the selectors went with the advice of the medical team.Stokes, meanwhile, had bowled more than 25 overs in the match by tea on the third day, his first outing with the ball since undergoing knee surgery after the opening Test against Sri Lanka in May.Steven Finn and Jake Ball have both retained their places although Ball, who made his debut at Lords, reported tightness in his left thigh and will be assessed by the England medical staff.Air Max Plus Clearance Nz .

Cheap Air Max Plus Nz .C. -- Chris Thorburn thinks one of the reasons the Winnipeg Jets have been successful under new coach Paul Maurice is that theyre playing together as a team.BOSTON -- Its the final day of one of the biggest Dota 2 events in the world. Thousands are in and out of the corridors of the Wang Theatre at the Boch Center in downtown Boston as upsets brew, thanks to a rally behind Greek team Ad Finem. But behind the scenes, Alex Machine Richardson, an esports host and commentator, is doing his best to direct the desk at his first Dota 2 event.Hes new to Dota 2 hosting, but after making a name for himself in Counter-Strike and Call of Duty, Machine would make you think differently. He has the sign of a good esports host -- of which the ability to switch games is extremely important. He says he had a blast hosting in Boston last weekend, despite it being his first outing in Dota 2.I had zero expectations. I had no idea what to expect, he said to ESPN. I didnt know how the talent would receive me, the community, the fans. Myself, I didnt know if Id enjoy the game; I certainly do [now]. Its been really cool, its been wonderful actually.Machine has experienced some of the biggest esports events, which helps counterbalance his lack of experience in Dota 2.I got to experience Call of Duty XP, which is a huge Call of Duty event. I got to experience the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive majors, the pinnacle of Counter-Strike. And now Im sitting here at the Boston Major ... Im living that story, Im telling that story, Im a very fortunate person, Machine said.Throughout his career, and in 2016 specifically, Machine has gained popularity. After working for ESL for the past few years, the British host left to become a freelancer in November, something many of his peers, such as Paul Redeye Chaloner, Anders Blume and Auguste Semmler Massonnat, have done successfully. For many in other fields, freelancing seems like a step down, but for esports hosts and commentators, it allows them to write the story of their career in a more hands-on environment.Ive been a freelancer since November, just over 40 days of freelance, and its already been completely eye-opening, Machine said. Its very fun to be my own boss. I like that people are coming to me directly; thats quite a new feeling to me. I would say Ive enjjoyed time at home, but Ive nearly paid four months rent now in London and Ive lived there for six days, so thats not great.dddddddddddd But Im traveling the world, talking about games, so what am I complaining about? Its been really good, but Im taking a break after this.His job at the Boston Major wasnt expected by fans of Dota 2. Redeye, for his part, has become one of the most well-known hosts -- running the desk at The International and other recent majors. Machine says his new role was something Valve, Dota 2s developer, made happen.You know if youve played any Valve games, they just like to throw a change and see how its received; Counter-Strike patches and its happened in Dota as well. I think thats what theyre doing here. They wanted to give me a shot. ... And I said, Sure, Ill give it my best shot. And it seems to have gone OK, Machine said.But as he moves into a new game, Machine says hes content with his current slate of games but would never shoot down an opportunity if it presented itself.I have evidently got a set of games that Im personally comfortable with; Dotas becoming one of them where I can feel I can really put on a show in hosting, he said. I dont think Im necessarily looking for another game right now, but I would never turn down or not consider it. I play everything, thats the problem. Im not just a one-gamer.Outside of his hosting ability, Machine and his freelance casting peers recently did stunts for charity at the ESL Pro League finals in October. There, the team of casters -- Semmler, Anders, Machine and James Moses OToole -- did a Movember charity, casually sporting mustaches with crazy donation goals. The experience ended with the group raising over £20,000 in a day. Machine, as a donation goal, got a Brazilian wax.I was the butt of almost all of the jokes of the [Counter-Strike casters] Movember fundraiser, Machine said. We did all of these donation goals and it was brilliant. ... We didnt expect that, hence why I was like Ill get a Brazilian wax. It still hurts. ' ' '
