India opener KL Rahul and seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar will play the next round of Ranji Trophy matches beginning on November 13, after missing the major part of the New Zealand series with injuries.Bhuvneshwar confirmed to ESPNcricinfo that he would turn out for Uttar Pradesh against Mumbai in Mysore, and Karnataka coach J Arun Kumar said Rahul would join the team on November 10 ahead of their Group B clash against Rajasthan in Vizianagaram. With the tournament nearing its home stretch, both teams, especially Uttar Pradesh who are third from the bottom in Group A, will welcome the return of key players.Shikhar Dhawan is likely to play the round beginning on November 21, when Delhi play Rajasthan in Wayanad. He made 1 and 17 in the only Test he played against New Zealand, in Kolkata, before sustaining a fracture in his left thumb after being struck twice by Trent Boult on the third day. He was subsequently ruled out of the third Test in Indore and the limited-overs contests.Rahul and Bhuvneshwar havent played competitive cricket for over a month, and will therefore be keen to prove their match fitness in the Ranji Trophy, in line with India coach Anil Kumbles policy. Good performances there could put them in line for selection in Indias side for the last three Tests against England.Rahuls most recent game was the first Test against New Zealand in Kanpur, where he injured his hamstring while running between the wickets. He missed the remaining two Tests and the subsequent five-match ODI series. He has since undergone rehabilitation before being picked for the game against Mumbai.Rahul had been in fine form prior to his injury, scoring a 158 in Jamaica and a half-century in St Lucia, before smashing an unbeaten 51-ball 110 in the first T20I against West Indies in Florida. He also had a productive tour of Zimbabwe in June, when he made his ODI debut and scored 196 runs in three matches, including a century.Bhuvneshwar picked up a back strain in the second Test, in Kolkata, where his five-for in the first innings gave India a substantial lead and set up a 178-run win. It was his second five-wicket haul in three matches - the first one came against West Indies in St Lucia, which was his first Test in over 19 months. Glen Rice Jersey .

Vettel, who has already clinched his fourth straight F1 title, enters the finale with a chance to equal Michael Schumachers 13 victories in a year and match the record of nine consecutive wins by Alberto Ascari in the 1952 and 1953 seasons.

That left plenty of energy for pitching books and swatting away free agency questions. Anthony had 24 points and nine rebounds, and the Knicks avenged an embarrassing home loss with a rout of their own, beating the Boston Celtics 114-88 on Wednesday night for their third straight victory. WILMINGTON, Mass. -- The speed and scoring touch that made Jaromir Jagr one of the NHLs best players are gone. Even the famous mullet that flowed from beneath his helmet disappeared many moons ago. But his passion for hockey remains. Now hes bringing that back to Pittsburgh, the city where he won Stanley Cups in his first two seasons. More than two decades later, the 41-year-old right wing can help the Boston Bruins win their second title in three seasons. First, they must beat the offensively potent Penguins in the Eastern Conference finals. The first two games are in Pittsburgh, with the schedule to be announced after the Western Conference semifinals end Wednesday. "I dont really remember the last time I was in this position," Jagr said after practice Tuesday. "It doesnt happen very often and the players should realize that. Its not automatic to make the playoffs or automatic to be in the last four teams to play for the Cup." Jagr was just 18 when his rookie season began in 1990. He was on the Penguins team that beat the Bruins in six games in the conference finals. A year later, Pittsburgh swept Boston in the same round, winning the first game on Jagrs overtime goal. The Penguins went on to win their first two Cups those seasons. Way back then, he didnt concern himself with how long he might keep playing. "I dont think you think that way at all," he said, but "if you love something, it doesnt matter what it is. If you love your job, you love your wife or somebody or something, you just want to be with that all the time. So, to me, I love this game. So as long as I can play, I want to play. Thats the reason Im playing. I just love it." That desire has taken him to six NHL teams, with a three-year break from 2008-11 to play in Russia. He brought it to the Bruins, who needed an offensive boost, when they obtained him from the Dallas Stars on April 2. But Pittsburgh is the city where he established himself. "A lot of people still remind me (of) that, but it happened 13 years ago, the last time I played for them," Jagr said. "So its a long time and 23 years ago was my first game." But what if someone had told him when he was starting out that hed be playing for the Bruins against the Penguins in the playoffs all these years later? "I dont think anybody would have told me that," Jagr said with a laugh. "I was 18 years old so I didnt think that far ahead. I was kind of thinking, Whats going to be tomorrow? not Whats going to be 20 years later?" Hes already won a playoff round this season against a former team. The Bruins won the conference semifinals in five games over the New York Rangers, where Jagr set the clubs single-season record with 54 goals in 20005-06.dddddddddddd Bruins fans havent seen that scoring skill all that often. Jagr scored just two goals in 11 regular-season games and none in 12 playoff games for Boston. "I always love to score. Nothing is going to change me," he said. "Maybe something greats going to happen a little later." Its not as if he hasnt come close. "I think its unfortunate that his numbers dont reflect his play," Boston coach Claude Julien said. "I can remember twice, hes got the open net, right next to it, and gets robbed twice. Its got to be a little frustrating for a guy like him. "Hes there. Hes in the right position." With his big body and vast experience, Jagr still controls the puck while shielding opponents from it until he can make a good pass. When he was moved up from the third to the second line during the playoffs, his new linemates, Patrice Bergeron and Brad Marchand, started producing. "Hes made a lot of good things happen with that line," Julien said. And Bergeron expects Jagr to score soon. "Its right there. The goals are coming," Bergeron said. "Hes an amazing player. Im learning a lot. You need to learn where to be on the ice with new linemates." The Penguins certainly arent taking him lightly -- not one of the greatest players in their history. "Hes still got that good ability to get a shot off in tight spaces," Pittsburgh forward Sidney Crosby said. "So, yeah, I definitely think hes still a threat out there." Brenden Morrow was Jagrs teammate with Dallas this season until being traded to Pittsburgh on March 24. "Hes still just as excited as any 18-year-old in the locker room," Morrow said. "His skills are still there. His big bodys tough to move when hes planted and has possession of the puck. He played real well for us in Dallas, scored some big goals. "Hes a threat every time hes on the ice." Penguins coach Dan Bylsma, just 17 months older than Jagr, agrees. "I dont look at birth certificates," he said. "Hes still got game, maybe not the same hair as he did when he was in Pittsburgh, but hes still got game." A game that -- as it did 22 years ago -- can still help a team win a Stanley Cup. "We knew what we were getting out of a 41-year-old (future) Hall of Famer and that was that he was going to be solid," Julien said. "Hes been nothing but a great asset." ------ NOTES: Pittsburgh won all three games it played against Boston this season, all by one goal. ... Bruins defenceman Andrew Ference returned to practice after missing the last seven games with a lower body injury. Julien said he wasnt ready to say Ference would play in Game 1 if hes healthy.
