NASCAR Duels Live Stream: Watch Online Budweiser Duel Daytona Streaming Races Fox Sports 1

The NASCAR Budweiser Duels start on Thursday to set the Daytona 500 after Jeff Gordon won the pole ahead of Jimmie Johnson for the Great American Race in Florida and things will be on TV from Fox Sports 1 and streaming from FS1 online from the Foxt Spors Go website as the field gets set for the first major race of the season.

Gordon had the best time during a wild qualifying session earlier in the week and now the Duel races will set the rest of the field. The pressure is on the field to get into the race and drivers like Johnson and Carl Edwards already have spots, while David Ragan needs to qualify to get in. Gordon will be on the pole for the first Duel on the schedule and that comes with  Matt Kenseth, Brad Keselowski, Joey Logano and Kevin Harvick all solid from that set.

Johnson leads Duel 2 and that has drivers like Kyle Busch, Austin Dillon, Sam Hornish Jr., Michael Waltrip, Kurt Busch, Martin Truex Jr. and Greg Biffle in solid position. Gordon won the pole for the Daytona 500 and it comes as he is getting ready to start his final season and he ended up on top after the wild knockout sessions. The qualifying was controversial for some drivers after an accident marred one of the runs and Gordon now comes in at the top spot alongside Johnson.

The knockout format had some drivers angry at the way it turned out, with Tony Stewart and Kevin Harvick both coming out to criticize the qualifying. Gordon is at the pole position, but he is by no means the favorite, as no one has won the Great American Race from the pole position since 2000. Only one driver has even finished in the top five during that run of time and the fact that it's the last run for Gordon at Dayton makes it even tougher for him.

Gordon was very fast in qualifying and ended up past 200 mph, making him the first since 1987 to pass that mark, according to ESPN.com, Many drivers felt that the knockout was tough to deal with and said they felt the single car format was better for Daytona. Danica Patrick dealt with a crash in qualifying and that happened early in practice on Wednesday and now she will be the backup car.

Patrick previously was on the pole back in 2013 and now she will have to deal with just getting into the field. Johnson comes in after another strong year and he will start alongside Gordon in the front of the field. The Duels are always interesting and this year things get started past 7 pm ET on Fox Sports 1 at Daytona International Speedway.

SHR: Teamwork pays off at Daytona

Haas Automation driver helps teammate’s cause in Budweiser Duel

Kurt Busch, driver of the No. 41 Haas Automation Chevrolet SS for Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR), was in position to contend for the win in the second Budweiser Duel Thursday night at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway until a pair of late-race incidents would change his priorities over the closing laps.

While running second, Busch was issued a late-race penalty for dropping below the double-yellow line to make a pass, which required him to make a pass-through down pit road. A handful of laps after he served his penalty, a multicar incident occurred that collected his SHR teammate Danica Patrick, who needed to race her way into Sunday’s 57th Daytona 500.

At that point, Busch’s focus changed from winning his second career Budweiser Duel to ensuring that Patrick’s No. 10 Chevrolet would be on the grid Sunday afternoon. When crew chief Tony Gibson called Busch to pit road to take on four fresh tires, the Las Vegas native kept an eye on the scoring pylon, in tune with the perilous position in which his teammate found herself.

    We don’t have a single scratch or scrape on our racecar; we’ll protect it in the next few practices. We’ll put a new engine in it for the Daytona 500.

    Kurt Busch

When green-flag racing resumed, Busch positioned himself to provide Patrick with the drafting help she needed to overcome the setback dealt when her racecar was damaged in the incident. The teammates were able to advance quickly, with Patrick vaulting to finish 10th and Busch 12th.

“What a great Haas Automation Chevrolet we have,” Busch said. “It’s been prepared to the specs of Tony Gibson and all the guys on this No. 41 team. They know how to restrictor-plate race. I’m very proud of the effort they’ve put forth. We don’t have a single scratch or scrape on our racecar; we’ll protect it in the next few practices. We’ll put a new engine in it for the Daytona 500.

“When we found ourselves out of contention to win the race, our focus changed to ensuring that Danica Patrick would be able to overcome what happened to her in the closing laps,” Busch said. “I was happy to be in a position to help our teammate make the Daytona 500.”

Tony Stewart led the way for SHR Thursday night by finishing fourth in his Budweiser Duel race, the first of twin qualifying races that set the 43-car field for the season-opening Daytona 500. Stewart’s fourth-place result slots him and his No. 14 Bass Pro Shops/Mobil 1 Chevrolet SS seventh for the 57th Daytona 500 on Sunday.

Kevin Harvick, driver of the No. 4 Budweiser Chevrolet SS for SHR, joined Stewart in the first Budweiser Duel race. Harvick finished sixth and will start 11th in the Daytona 500.

SHR’s Patrick, driver of the No. 10 GoDaddy Chevrolet SS, and Busch, driver of the No. 41 Haas Automation Chevrolet SS, competed in the second Duel. Patrick finished 10th and will start 20th in the Daytona 500, while Busch finished 12th and will start 24th in the Daytona 500.

Patrick, who had to race her way into the Daytona 500 with a backup racecar, rebounded from a late-race incident that caused left-rear damage to her GoDaddy Chevrolet. Patrick restarted 18th with just three laps remaining, but with drafting help from teammate Busch, Patrick rallied to a 10th-place finish and a Daytona 500 starting spot.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. won the first Budweiser Duel by .165 of a second over Jeff Gordon. Joey Logano, Stewart and Clint Bowyer took spots three through five. The rest of the top-10 consisted of Harvick, Kasey Kahne, Jamie McMurray, Landon Cassill and Cole Whitt.

Jimmie Johnson won the second Budweiser Duel by .125 of a second over Kyle Busch. Carl Edwards, Greg Biffle, and Martin Truex Jr. took spots three through five. The rest of the top-10 consisted of Ryan Blaney, Reed Sorenson, Mike Wallace, Justin Allgaier and Patrick.

With the Budweiser Duel now complete, the field for the Daytona 500 is set. On the pole is Jeff Gordon, and alongside him is Jimmie Johnson. By notching the two quickest times during qualifying on Sunday, both drivers were able to lock themselves into the front row for the Daytona 500.

Failing to qualify for the Daytona 500 were Alex Bowman, Jeb Burton, Ron Hornaday Jr., Justin Marks, Brian Scott and Josh Wise.

The Daytona 500 gets underway at 1 p.m. EST Sunday, Feb. 22, with live coverage provided by FOX beginning with its prerace show at noon.

Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 Pool A match at Dunedin, Preview: Lankan lions aim to return to winning ways

Pool A Match no 12 at the University Oval in Dunedin on Sunday. The match, which will be aired in the wee hours for the Indian audience, will be an opportunity for both the teams to get their first win of the tournament. Sri Lanka especially, would be desperate to get back to winning ways after a poor record in the last couple of months in New Zealand.

Sri Lanka head to the game after losing both their warm-up fixtures, with the margin of defeats being five and seven wickets to South Africa and Zimbabwe respectively. The losses only piled on what has been an ordeal in the recent past. The Tests and One-Day Internationals (ODIs), played against New Zealand right before the World Cup, was meant to give them a much-needed practice. However, it turned out to be a bitter experience as the Sri Lankans lost the Test and ODI series 0-2 and 2-4 respectively. ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: POINTS TABLE

Their fortunes hardly improved after playing their opening game of the mega-event, getting outplayed by the Black Caps in all departments. Pace spearhead Lasith Malinga, who was out of action for quite some time due to a nagging ankle, flopped in his ODI return as he conceded 84 runs from 10 overs without taking a wicket. A pace spearhead getting hammered in that manner is bound to have its effect on the other bowlers, especially the youngsters who are playing their first-ever Cricket World Cup (Suranga Lakmal). ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: SCHEDULE & MATCH DETAILS

The batting order not much spirited either, including the legendary pair of Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara. While the latter was dismissed on 39 off 38 balls, Jayawardene, who had retired from Tests in August last year, was dismissed on a duck. The Lankans failed to build a partnership throughout the game, with the Black Caps striking at regular intervals.

Afghanistan, on the other hand, could not have had a more forgettable World Cup debut, losing their game to Bangladesh by 105 runs in what could have been a close contest. The bowling was satisfactory, with the Afghans managing to restrict everyone except Mushfiqur Rahim and star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan. They could have set themselves a much-lower target had it not been for one of Bangladesh’s most successful batting pairs. ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: Complete Coverage

The Afghans were never in the game in reply, losing their first three wickets with as many runs on the board. Afghanistan’s most experienced duo of Mohammad Nabi and Samiullah Shenwari put up a fight whatsoever with scores of 44 and 42 respectively. The side must get the two to function in whatever capacity possible against Sri Lanka.

Squads:

Sri Lanka: Angelo Mathews (c), Kumar Sangakkara (wk), Mahela Jayawardene, Tillakaratne Dilshan (wk), Dimuth Karunaratne, Lahiru Thirimanne (wk), Dinesh Chandimal (wk), Lasith Malinga, Nuwan Kulasekara, Thisara Perera, Suranga Lakmal, Rangana Herath, Sachithra Senanayake, Jeevan Mendis, Dushmantha Chameera.

Afghanistan: Mohammad Nabi (c), Nawroz Mangal, Asghar Stanikzai, Samiullah Shenwari, Afsar Zazai (wk), Najibullah Zadran, Nasir Jamal, Mirwais Ashraf, Gulbadin Naib, Hamid Hassan, Shapoor Zadran, Dawlat Zadran, Aftab Alam, Javed Ahmadi, Usman Ghani

Bangladesh have got off to a winning start in the tournament.

With the ball, it was an easy run as their opponents failed to show any application. However, Australia will pose a much bigger threat. Catch the updated Points Table of ICC Cricket World Cup here.

The good news for Bangladesh is the fact that their senior players are in form. However, against the number one ranked side in One-Day Internationals (ODI), they will need more than their five senior players to step up in order to cause an unlikely upset.

Arsenal vs. Crystal Palace: TV Channel, Live Stream Info And Prediction For Premier League Clash

Arsène Wenger has hailed the influence of Spanish midfielder Santi Cazorla, as Arsenal prepare to take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday. Cazorla has been superb in recent weeks since being moved to a central midfield role and has played a big part in Arsenal winning eight of their last nine matches in all competitions.

“Until now he has been maybe the most consistent, he has been voted player of the month twice in the last two months, that means he has been remarkably consistent,” Wenger said at his press conference on Friday. “Since he has moved centrally his influence has been bigger as well.”

Cazorla again excelled last Saturday as Arsenal beat Middlesbrough 2-0 to move into the FA Cup quarterfinals, where they’ll take on Manchester United on Mar. 9. That fixture adds to a hectic period for Arsenal in the coming weeks, which may go a long way to determining the success of their season. On Wednesday, the Champions League returns to the Emirates Stadium, when Monaco visit in the first leg of a Champions League last 16 matchup. Wenger, though, insists his full focus is on Selhurst Park on Saturday.

“The most important game is Crystal Palace because it’s the next one. The Champions League has no influence on that at all.”

Saturday’s contest contains plenty of importance, too. Every Premier League point between now and the end of the season looks set to be pivotal for Wenger’s men, with Arsenal currently lying in fifth place, a point behind Southampton in the final Champions League qualifying position and two adrift of third-placed Manchester United.

Ahead of the start of their intense schedule, Arsenal will be boosted by Jack Wilshere again being available for selection. The England midfielder has been absent for three months with an ankle problem, but could be involved in some capacity, likely from the bench, on Saturday.

“He’s a bit ahead of schedule,” Wenger stated. “He has worked hard and had no big problems, so it’s good to have him back.”

His return will bolster a midfield that will still be missing Aaron Ramsey, Mikel Arteta and Alex Oxlade- Chamberlain. Defender Hector Bellerin is also a doubt for the game. Palace, meanwhile, will be unable to call upon striker Yaya Sanogo, who is ineligible after moving to Selhurst Park on loan from Arsenal in January. Providing he shakes off a niggling injury, there is, though, likely to be a place for former Gunners forward Marouane Chamakh. The Morocco international initially made a big impact after joining Arsenal from Bordeaux in 2010, but then struggled after losing his place in the team, before moving to Palace in 2013.

“You know he was in and out at Arsenal, it’s a difficult club to break through,” Palace manager Alan Pardew said, reports the Daily Star. “It’s difficult to get a run with so many great players. For players like Cham, sometimes it’s best to move away and find yourself and he has found himself and he’s an asset to us.”

Pardew won his first four matches after leaving Newcastle United to take over at Crystal Palace at the turn of the year, but has led them to just one win in four since. And with Palace only five points clear of the relegation zone, there is little room for complacency.

Prediction: A match at Selhurst Park always presents a difficult proposition for the visiting team. But Pardew’s men have gone a little flat in recent weeks and still struggle to score goals. And with Arsenal having now got back on track following a defeat to Tottenham, they should come away with the three points.
