New Zealand doesnt quite have Sri Lankas reputation in producing result pitches, but you have to go back seven Tests - to February 2014 - to find the most-recent draw in the country. Little surprise then, that a batting approach gaining credence in Sri Lanka (13 Tests without a draw) may come to be here as well: get runs before the good ball gets you.Having mustered only 304 in Christchurch, Pakistan had introspected as they prepared for the Test at Seddon Park. A more adventurous outlook might see them prosper on this pitch, middle-order batsman Asad Shafiq said.As batsmen we have to play positive and aggressive on this wicket, he said. That was missing in the last match. We have to go for some runs, because on a wicket like this its very difficult to stop the ball all the time because this kind of wicket seams and swings a bit. Its just a matter of time until you get a good delivery. Before that you have to take it on.Perhaps Pakistan have sought to take cues from their top-scorer in Christchurch: Sohail Khan, who hit 40 runs off 39 balls. On similarly difficult pitches, strokemakers have also succeeded in upsetting bowlers rhythms - something Pakistan could not do despite having collectively spent 78.4 overs at the crease in the second innings of the first Test.Its a lesson that we had learned in the last game - that on these types of wickets we have to spend time, but as soon as we are spending time, we have to score some runs. If were not scoring runs, we are standing at the same place - we are not going forward.Chief among those Pakistan will look to for leadership in this approach is Younis Khan, who made scores of 2 and 1 in the first Test. He averages 51.11 in New Zealand, however, with three half centuries and a 149 not out in 10 innings in the country.Younis is one of the great batsmen Pakistan has ever produced, and hes gone through a lot of times in his career like this - when he hasnt scored runs in the first match, but he always bounces back, Shafiq said. He has that ability. Im sure he will score runs in this match.Seddon Park will also hold pleasant memories for Shafiq who, in 2011, top-scored in a Pakistan victory at the ground with 83. That had been only his second Test innings. I remember that innings well - I played good, positive cricket. It feels really good to be back at the same ground. It really helps a lot as a batsman.

Speaking Thursday on TSN 1050 Thursday, the Leafs GM also touched on the questions surrounding the teams leadership and the struggles of his big-name free-agent signing. “Its not from lack of effort from the coaching staff. Royce Freeman Broncos Jersey .Y. -- Syracuse has turned up the defence at the right time all season, and when High Point threatened to pull off a monumental upset the second-ranked Orange did what they do best with their quick hands and savvy play. Dennis Smith Youth Jersey . -- In one brief spurt, Brazil turned a close game into a rout and proved again it will be a strong World Cup favourite. MADISON, Wis. -- Wisconsins defense could soon be getting an energy boost.Outside linebacker Vince Biegel is listed as questionable on the injury report to start practice this week ahead of the 10th-ranked Badgers road game Saturday at Iowa.Its a big step forward for Biegel, who has missed the last two games with a right foot injury .Wearing sweats before Saturdays game against Ohio State, Biegel jogged on the field and played catch. He did some light individual work before joining the rest of his team for warmups.Biegel looked like an unofficial coach the way he nervously paced the sideline and joined his team in defensive huddles during timeouts.But its been more of an energizing thing than an anxiety, coach Paul Chryst said Monday. The two games that hes missed to this point, that has bothered him a lot.When healthy, Biegel and fellow outside linebacker T.J. Watt form one of the best outside linebacker combinations in the Big Ten. Biegels outgoing personality is complemented by unique hairstyles that make him stand out.He has missed the loss to Michigan and to Ohio State, which sandwiched a bye week for the Badgers (4-2, 1-2 Big Ten).Vince loves playing the game and he really in all the right ways cares about this team, and so thats been the sting for him, Chryst said.The defense has played relatively well even without two starters at linebacker, though Wisconsin could have especially used Biegel last week against the Buckeyes.Inside linebacker Chris Orr was lost for the season in the opener against LSU because of a right knee injury. T.J. Edwards has stepped in for Orr. Garrett Dooley has moved into the starting lineup for Biegel, while freshman Zack BBaun has also seen more playing time in the outside rotation.ddddddddddddWatt has emerged into a force with 5 1/2 sacks. So has Jack Cichy, who was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week for a career-high 15 tackles in the 30-23 overtime loss to Ohio State last week.Cichy played inside linebacker in high school. But until midway last season, the former walk-on was playing outside linebacker.He earned the nickname Three-Sack Jack after getting sacks on three straight plays during Wisconsins win over Southern California in December in the Holiday Bowl.It seems that hes found a home on the inside.Its kind of helped me have a better understanding of the whole defense, in that it helps me play a little faster, a little freer, Cichy said. I know what some of the outside guys are doing, as well as what Im supposed to be doing on the inside, so I think it ties the whole picture together.That picture could get a whole lot brighter if Biegel is able to return against Iowa. Chryst said Biegels availability will be determined later in the week.With two losses in Big Ten play, Wisconsin is already two games behind undefeated Nebraska in the West Division. There is little room for error for the Badgers to reach the conference title game.I think we all know how Vince would approach that, Cichy said when asked if Biegel would lobby to be cleared for the Iowa game. It will be exciting to unleash him again, whenever that is.---Online:College Football site: http://collegefootball.ap.org---Follow Genaro Armas at: https://twitter.com/GArmasAP ' ' '
