Indias opener, Murali Vijay, anchored his sides reply to Englands first-innings total of 400, by adding a 169-ball 70 that guided his side to 146 for 1 at stumps on the second day of the fourth Test in Mumbai on Friday. Jordan Lyles Jersey .England looked comfortably poised at the start of the day at 288 for 5, with Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler at the crease. Virat Kohli opted for spin, first up and the ploy worked as R Ashwin, in the third over of the day, dismissed Stokes for 31, to claim his 23rd five-for in Tests, making him the joint third-highest for India with Kapil Dev. Only Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh have more. Ashwin has claimed 47 wickets in 2016, the most by a spinner in India in a calendar year, going past Erapalli Prasannas record that had stood since 1969.England managed 385 for 8 in the first session, with Ravindra Jadeja joining Ashwin in the wickets. The disciplined bowling effort restricted the tourists to a respectable first-innings total.India stuttered at the start and lost opener, KL Rahul for 24 in the 14th over. The set back didnt affect Vijays tempo as he clobbered Adil Rashid for a four and a six in the third over after England had made the breakthrough.Vijay rarely lost concentration during his innings. He drove the ball elegantly and attacked Englands bowlers when the pressure built up. England did have a chance to dismiss the opener, in the 32nd over, but wicketkeeper Jonny Bairstow failed to stump him.Vijay motored along on a Wankhede surface that aided batsmen. The Vijay-Pujara combine added 107 runs for the second wicket at stumps. Vijay had hit six fours and two sixes in his unbeaten knock. Pujara joins him with an unbeaten 47. The hosts are still 254 runs shy of Englands first-innings effort. Melky Cabrera Jersey .C. -- Charlotte Bobcats coach Steve Clifford said after all of these years in the NBA hes still amazed at some of the things LeBron James does. Roberto Clemente Jersey . Robredo, ranked No. 16, bounced back from an upset loss to Leonardo Mayer in the second round of the Royal Guard Open in Chile last week to down Carreno Busta in 1 hour, 25 minutes. On a day filled mostly with qualifying matches, fifth-seeded Marcel Granollers of Spain also entered the second with a 7-5, 3-6, 6-2 win over Aljaz Bedene of Slovenia, while Guido Pella of Argentina defeated Guillermo Garcia-Lopez of Spain 7-6 (6), 6-4 to advance. http:///...zier-pirates-jersey/ .com) - Yankee Stadium is the home of the Bronx Bombers, but on Sunday afternoon it will open its gates to host the latest addition of the Hudson River Rivalry. COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Thursday evening is opening night for the Columbus Blue Jackets as they play host to the Boston Bruins, two teams not expected to place within the top-3 of the Metropolitan Division this season.The Blue Jackets begin the 2016-17 season as a team that didnt make any spectacular moves, save for selecting forward Pierre Luc-Dubois ahead of the pundits choice of forward Jesse Puljujarvi with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2016 draft.Although it was announced Tuesday that the team had sent forward Alex Wennberg through waivers in order to be assigned to the teams AHL-affiliate Cleveland Monsters while Luc-Dubois had apparently made the team, the Blue Jackets announced late Wednesday that Pierre Luc-Dubois, 18, had been assigned to the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles (QMJHL), and had recalled Wennberg from Cleveland. This was done ostensibly to give them more room under the salary cap with forward David Clarkson on long-term Injured Reserve.Wennberg, 22, posted NHL career highs in 2015-16, recording eight goals and 32 assists in 69 games with the team.The Blue Jackets signed Sam Gagner, 27, this summer to be a possible integral component of the power play, while also being a potential No. 2 center for the team. Gagner was selected with the No. 6 overall pick by the Edmonton Oilers in the 2007 draft. He had eight goals and eight assists in 53 games for the Philadelphia Flyers last season, and has recorded 124-228-352 in 615 NHL games.The Blue Jackets also have high hope for 19-year old defenseman Zach Werenski, selected No. 8 in the 2015 draft.I see another gear, a high gear, that a lot of people dont have, Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella said of Werenski, via BlueJackets.com. I look at his skill . Jameson Taillon Jersey. .. I mean, my god, hes just a kid.I look at him as a very intelligent player. I look at him as a guy that can help our power play -- were gonna give him a whack at it right off the bat here -- because its been one of our weaknesses.The Boston Bruins will be without the services of star-forward Patrice Bergeron to start the 2016-17 season, out with a lower-body injury and currently being evaluated on a day-to-day basis.Youre missing one of your better players, so its not an easy way to start, but its reality, and I really feel that its an opportunity, too, Bruins coach Claude Julien told his teams website.Weve been talking about having depth -- lets use that depth right now, and if everybody does their job and plays the way we should, we can get through this.Julien specified that it was a minor injury, and not something major, stating Were confident its going to be real short term.With Bergeron not starting the trip, forward David Backes took over his spot centering Brad Marchand and David Pastrnak during Wednesdays practice.Bruins general manager Don Sweeney announced that defenseman Adam McQuaid is currently being evaluated on a day-to-day basis with an upper-body injury, while defenseman Kevan Miller, who underwent successful surgery to repair a fracture in his left hand on Tuesday, is expected to be out of the lineup for six weeks.With McQuaid and Miller absent, defensemen Brandon Carlo and Rob OGara will likely get the opportunity to make their NHL debuts.Forward Tim Schaller was recalled from the Providence Bruins by the team in Bergerons absence.
