DHONI BEST IN ODIS

MAHENDRA Singh Dhoni was named the ODI Player of the Year, Yuvraj Singh won the Twenty20 International Performance of the Year Award but pacer Ishant Sharma failed to win the Emerging Player honour at the annual ICC awards function in Dubai.

West Indies' Shivnarine Chanderpaul was adjudged Cricketer of the Year after a fine performance in Tests as well as limited over cricket while South African fast bowler Dale Steyn earned the Test Cricketer of the Year Award.

India ODI captain Dhoni beat tough competition from teammate Sachin Tendulkar, Australian fast bowler Nathan Bracken and Pakistan stalwart Mohammad Yousuf to take the prestigious award.

Yuvraj was deservedly honoured for his stupendous six sixes in an over off Englishman Stuart Broad in the inaugural Twenty20 World Championship in South Africa last year.

Ishant lost out to Sri Lankan mystery spinner Ajantha Mendis who took the Emerging Player of the Year Award.

During the voting period, Dhoni played 39 ODIs and scored 1,298 runs at an average of 49.92 and at a rate of 82.46 runs per 100 balls faced. In that time, he hit a century and nine fifties making sure he led his team from the front.

Dhoni also effected 62 dismissals ( 46 catches and 16 stumpings) as wicketkeeper, which is almost twice as many as the next best, albeit having played more matches than any other keeper.

He is currently ranked number one in the ICC Player Rankings for ODI batsmen.

Shoaib ready for Surrey stint

Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar has finally got a respite. Five months after he was banned for five years from international and domestic cricket by the Pakistan Cricket Board, he is all set to join county side Surrey to prove his fitness and find a place in the national side.

The step comes at a time when Surrey are to stave off relegation from Division One of the County Championship. Shoaib will be available for the final two matches against Hampshire and Nottinghamshire.

"My eventual aim is to play for Pakistan and I feel Surrey would offer me the best opportunity to prove my fitness. I am keen to prove myself to the selectors to get into the national side. I want to put in hard work and play the best for the next four years and concentrate on my career," the 32-year-old said.

The ‘Rawalpindi Express’ was in the city to participate in a dance reality show. He slammed the Pakistan Cricket Board and the earlier government in the country for not supporting him, handing him the ban, fine and playing politics with him. "The past two years have been really tough for me. The PCB harassed me, banned me and levied huge fine on me. Also the earlier government lend me their support," said the pacer.

Shoaib also sounded upset with the board for not being able to nurture grass-root level talent, which has resulted in a dearth of pace bowlers in Pakistan.
