KATHMANDU: Liverpool’s prolific striker Mohamed Salah, who scored record breaking 32 goals in 38-match English Premier League 2017–18 season, has won the golden boot award.

Salah’s tally is a new record for a 38-game EPL campaign, eclipsing the previous mark of 31 goals achieved by Luis Suarez, Alan Shearer and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Mohamed Salah has scored 44 goals in 51 appearances in all competition in his debut season for the club.

He could add more to his tally against Real Madrid in the Champions League final on May 26 in Kiev, Ukraine. Liverpool have won the competition five times in their history.

Egyptian forward Salah, who had moved to Liverpool from Roma in Italy, not only scored his 32nd goal in the last fixture of the campaign but also ensured Liverpool occupy in top four finish and Champions League qualification next season.

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane, who had won two consecutive golden boot award,  just fell two goals behind Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah and failed to claim third Premier League Golden Boot award.

Harry scored 30 league goals one more then last year.

Man City Sergio Aguero continued his goal scoring instinct with 21 goals, Leicester City Jamie Vardy hit 20 goals, Man City Raheem Sterling notched 18 goals followed by Liverpool’s Roberto Firmino’s 15 goals this season.

Buttler’s record-equalling knock leads Royals to victory

0

Jos Buttler continued his fine Indian Premier League (IPL) form by hitting a record-equalling fifth consecutive half-century since being promoted to opener in the Rajasthan Royals’ seven-wicket win over Mumbai Indians on Sunday.

The England wicketkeeper-batsman stroked an unbeaten 94 for the Royals to add to his last four scores of 67, 51, 82 and 95 not out, matching retired Indian great Virender Sehwag’s record of five successive IPL half-centuries set in 2012.

Buttler’s England team mate Ben Stokes and Sussex all-rounder Jofra Archer took two wickets apiece as the Royals restricted holders Mumbai to 168 for six in their 20 overs.

The Royals then put in a solid batting display, led by Buttler, and notched 171-3 in 18 overs to win their third consecutive match and keep their playoff hopes alive.

“I’m really enjoying it, found some good form, it’s a do-or-die situation and I’m full of confidence so want to keep it going,” Buttler said at his player of the match award ceremony.

“I’ve spent a lot of time batting in the middle order so if I can bat through the first six overs I can tie the two together.”

Buttler, who helped Mumbai win last year’s title, admitted that his familiarity with Wankhede Stadium had helped his cause.

“Nice to come back here, I enjoyed my time at Mumbai and it properly helped to know the conditions. I’m in a good head-space and looking forward to the next game.”

James Haskell and Danny Cipriani have kept their hopes of appearing at next year’s World Cup alive by signing deals with Northampton and Gloucester, respectively, as they prepare to leave Wasps at the end of the season.

The 33-year-old Haskell was told in January he would be released by Wasps at the end of the season – ending a 12-year career at the club – but after he revealed he was willing to take a pay cut to stay in the Premiership, Saints have announced his signature on a one-year-deal.

County cricket: Somerset v Hants, Surrey thrash Yorkshire and more – live!

0

“Vince has reached his hundred, one of his best. Perhaps the most telling statistic is the number of balls faced, 277. The pitch has been at its best for batting yesterday and today but there has been no flightiness from Vince. I’m informed that this has been the slowest hundred in the Championship this season, so the slowest and one of the best – that must confuse them at ECB towers – where are the sixes to keep the women and children entranced?

“Anyway Somerset then disposed of Tom Alsop fairly quickly, caught at second slip off Tim Groenewald for 12. So there is still life in this game. Still no sightings of Leach and no updates either. At lunch Hampshire are 260-4, 15 behind. Just before the break Rilee Rossouw edged his first runs and then fell to the ground; he summoned the physio so there was a six minute delay, followed by a bit of time wasting, which prompted two of the wiliest, old umpires (Lloyds and Evans) to race into position at 12.59.”

And on the stroke of lunch, Derbyshire lose another, Alex Hughes, c Stuart Poynter b Cameron Steel for 17. With a lead of just 21, Derby must dine timorously.
