Pakistans new regime have looked to improve the sides fitness and discipline ahead of their tour of England, writes Sajid Sadiq of Pak.Passion.net .... Pakistans painful memories of the 2010 tour of England, which resulted in humiliation on many fronts was partially erased by the Test whitewash of England in the UAE four years ago and further eased by victory in the autumn series last year.But Pakistan know that a determined England lies in wait to avenge those defeats. Sri Lanka are the current recipients of Englands home-turf power - James Anderson and Stuart Broad mauling the visitors at will. James Anderson has taken 18 wickets over the first two Tests against Sri Lanka this summer Its the most serious test of Pakistans credentials as a Test playing nation and an opportunity to prove to the world that their successes in the UAE are not simply a product of local conditions alone.In preparation, recently the Pakistan squad have been running around an army boot camp in Abbottabad, indulging in military-style endurance training usually reserved for men in combat clothing and camouflaged faces.News relating to failures of many players to keep pace with their military fitness instructors made interesting headlines in local and international papers, especially given that mental images of unfit cricketers wilting under pressure would seem a quintessentially Pakistani issue. Amir receives UK visa Pakistan seamer free to travel to England The fitness camp was met with a few hearty objections by former Pakistan players including Javed Miandad who described it as a waste of time and potentially even dangerous, but not for the modern-thinking ways of the current Pakistan management.Former Pakistani great Inzamam-ul-Haq was lured back as Chief Selector by the Pakistan Cricket Board, and though it might surprise some in the English camp, under Inzamams watchful gaze, a new and more determined Pakistan team is literally taking shape.The appointment, coupled with the expertise of Pakistans new Head Coach, Mickey Arthur, could bring untold benefits and Inzi has wasted no time in putting together a list of initial steps and requirements. Former South Africa and Australia head coach Mickey Arthur has recently joined the Pakistan set up Perhaps recalling the hardships of previous Pakistan players to English conditions, hes forced the PCB to organize a two-week preparatory camp for the squad in Hampshire.Inzamam also knows about the frailties of the Pakistan batsmen against the moving ball in English conditions. The Duke cricket ball used by England for home series is a well-known irritant for visiting teams, Australia falling prey last year and Sri Lankas current batting collapses a further reminder of what Pakistan could face in a few weeks.Pakistan are already using the Duke ball in practice sessions in Lahore and the PCB has ordered the creation of green top wickets in Lahore in order to create conditions as close to those which could be encountered in England. Pakistan have been preparing with Duke Balls ahead of their trip to England The unfortunate historical truth remains that few Pakistan tours of England have been short of controversy, with the spot-fixing scandal of the summer of 2010 being the last and most notorious example.Whilst a recurrence of another controversy due to unforeseen circumstance can never be discounted, it would appear that Inzamam has taken ample steps to ensure that the team remains free of any potential hotspots. Mohammad Amir played during Pakistans last tour of England in 2010 before serving a five-year spot-fixing ban His bold decision to leave out Ahmed Shehzad and Umar Akmal from the tour on disciplinary grounds can only be applauded, as can his efforts to make sure Mohammad Amir remains focused on cricket as he makes his much talked-about return to Test cricket in the same country where he last played a Test before being banned for five years.If the pundits are to be believed, the odds of Pakistan escaping unblemished from the upcoming tour of England are pretty grim but unlike past visits to England, this Pakistan squad and its management seem determined to give a good account of themselves.Watch Pakistans tour of England live on Sky Sports, starting with the first Test at Lords from Thursday, July 14.

Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca. Hey Kerry, Undoubtedly you will receive a lot of emails regarding this game. I have a question regarding the position of the linesman on the missed offside call that led to the Avs tying the game late in the third period against the Wild on Friday. Why is the linesman positioned outside the blue line? Shouldnt he be inside the line so that his body or skates arent inadvertently the cause of an offside for the attacking team? If he were in position inside the line, he surely wouldnt have to lean away from the line as he does in the photograph all over the media. I would like to know your thoughts. Thanks. DJ Waldron DJ, I want to establish first and foremost that Pierre Racicot is universally accepted as one of the top linesman in the NHL. Racicots high level of skill and competency has been recognized with seven consecutive selections to work the Stanley Cup Final. I worked many games with Pierre and can tell you firsthand that he has earned much deserved respect from players and coaches throughout the League. No matter how good a player or official is, mistakes are sometimes made. The great officials minimize their mistakes and Racicot clearly falls into that category. This is one of the very few times that this linesman got the call wrong. Let me explain why that happened. As you point out DJ, linesman Racicots initial decision to set up outside the blue line created an obstructed view of the inside edge of the line once Nathan MacKinnon carried the puck a mere couple of feet in front of the linesman. From this less than perfect position, and with Paul Stastny in full stride and about to cross the line to the right of MacKinnon, Racicot made the quick, but unfortunate, decision to alter his upper body posture away from the line. This move, made in a millisecond of time, was initiated by the linesman in an effort to gain an angle that might allow him to see both the puck and Stastny crossing the inside edge of the blue line. What this new angle created for the linesman, however, was a sightline toward the middle of the ice that became obstructed by the body of MacKinnon. Offside resulted in the blink of an eye as Stastnys lead skate (and with his back skate in the air not in contact with the line or outside the attacking zone) crossed inches ahead of the puck and resultedd in a rare missed call by Racicot.dddddddddddd I had the opportunity to work with some incredibly talented linesmen during the course of my career; Pierre Racicot included. As I was writing this column I spoke with HHOF member and former colleague Ray Scapinello to provide us with some technical insight on a play of this nature. Scamp said that he learned from fellow Hall-of-Fame members John DAmico and Matt Pavelich that, as a rule of thumb, it was imperative for the linesman to be set inside the blue line prior to players and the puck crossing the line. Im sure it might have happened through unavoidable circumstance but I cant ever remember Scapinello making a decision on an off-side from the neutral zone. On the contrary, I have vivid memories of Scamp positioned inside the zone, down on one knee and looking along the inside edge of the blue line to render his accurate decision on a close call. Once the play was deemed on-side, the little fellow jumped up and quickly moved his skates outside the blue line to avoid being hit with the puck and preventing it from exiting the zone. Ray stressed the importance of the linesmen seeing the attack develop, moving quickly to set up inside the blue line and waiting to make the call as the puck and players cross the line. Scamp said this, especially with the red line no longer in play for the off-side pass rule and the linesmen must be dialed in for potential stretch passes. When set up inside the blue line, Ray said it didnt matter if all five attacking players crossed the line at the same time because his view would not be obstructed. The rare missed offside call by Racicot was an anomaly for this highly skilled professional linesman. He will learn from this experience and gain an unobstructed sightline from a position inside the blue line whenever possible. If, in the future, there is a need to alter his upper body posture/sightline along the line, my guess is Pierre will lean toward the inside edge instead of away from it. This play not only demonstrates the speed of the game but also that human error can and will occur, no matter good the player or official is. This play aside, the NHL Officiating Department could certainly use Hockey Hall of Fame legendary linesman Ray Scapinello to lead and coach the current crop of NHL linesmen, no matter how proficient they might be. Scamp learned from the very best in his day; the present group of linesman should be afforded the same privilege.
