Off topic
How do you think your fellas will go in the ashes this year we are hearing over here they are very confident that they can win. I think we will win 4-1 as usual(They all hit the drink after winning the first 4
) but is there some new bowler or batsmen that i havn't heard of. I heard the new wicketkeeper is not bad i heard comparisons with Gilchrist.

yeah theres a few mate, we are still underdogs but it is number one v 2 in the world.
Harmison needs to find his form, flintoff needs to be fit, pieterson needs to convert his form from one day to test, Struass is class he needs to keep firing and Vaughan needs some form.
If these things happen we can win it.

the reason for the withdrawel, from fightnews:
....
However, contrary to baseless initial reports, the real problem for Lyakhovich is his passport situation. “Sergei is not an American citizen, he is Belarusian, and his passport was stolen,” explains manager Ivalyo Gotzev. “To get one and travel to Germany, he would have had to buy a one-way ticket back to Belarus, hope to get his passport in time and then hope he is allowed to leave the country again to go fight.” The possibility of not being able to get his paperwork in order in time was too risky for Lyakhovich and Gotzev and they have instead elected to withdraw…for now. “Sergei would love to fight Wladimir; there is definitely unfinished business between these two. This started in 1996 before the Atlanta Olympic Games when they had a heated sparring session.

that´s real bullshit. he could go to Washington where there must be a embassy that could give him a new passport easily. you don´t have to fly to your home country to get a passport.

i think they might be worried that he will have problems getting back in to the USA.... only thing i can think of...
and yes there is a belarussian emabassy in washington so he could get a new passport there within a few days, then go to the german embassy and get his visa within a few days

Without knowing anything about it I suspect that Belarussia might be a very bureaucratic country so it might take more that a few days (Hell it takes 4-6 weeks here)

still features Wlad, Valuev, Tsypko, british interest in Sprott v Koc
Valuev is off, Abraham is in vs TBA, Häussler vs Sanavia, Tsypko vs TBA, Cengiz Khan vs Sprott, Wladi vs Castillo.
I prefer the Braunschweig card with Gomez, Dimitrenko and Veit.
