Over the past seventeen years this format has grown leaps and bounds and is very keenly watched by all stakeholders involved with the game. The popularity and the growth of T20 has led to cricket boards taking this format with uttermost seriousness and every major cricket playing nation has its own international team and domestic league. Over the past seventeen years the strategies involved in succeeding in this format have also evolved and teams at the international, franchise and domestic level are trying to evolve their playbook to gain a comparative advantage.

  • Les Listes Des Finalistes Connues
    Sport / Sports CAF AWARDS 2019 Les listes des finalistes connues C’est hier que la Confédération africaine de football (CAF) a dévoilé la liste finale et les nominés pour la cérémonie de la CAF Awards 2019 et la remise des trophées qui aura lieu le 7 janvier 2020 à Hurghada (Égypte). À cet effet, après avoir rendu publique une liste élargie de 10 joueurs, la CAF a retenu hier 3 joueurs pour le titre de meilleur joueur africain. Il s’agit du champion d’Afrique Riyad Mahrez (Manchester City), du Sénégalais Sadio Mané (Liverpool) et de l’Égyptien Mohamed Salah de Liverpool aussi. Pour le titre de meilleur entraîneur africain de l’année 2019, la CAF a désigné dans la liste finale 3 techniciens : Djamel Belmadi, champion d’Afrique avec l’Algérie ; Aliou Cissé, vice-champion d’Afrique avec le Sénégal ; alors que le troisième entraîneur n’est autre que le driver de l’Espérance de Tunis, champion d’Afrique des clubs avec l’EST la saison derrière, à savoir Mouine Chabaani. À propos du titre du jeune talent africain, 3 joueurs aussi ont été retenus : il s’agit du Marocain Achraf Hakimi, et des deux Nigérians Samuel Chukwueze et Victor Osimhen. L’Algérien Bennacer (22 ans) aurait pu figurer dans cette liste finale, étant donné qu’il est le meilleur joueur de la dernière Coupe d’Afrique des nations en Égypte, mais la CAF l’a désigné avec Riyad Mahrez dans la liste des nominés pour le meilleur joueur africain de l’année. En outre, 3 sélections ont été choisies pour le titre de la meilleure équipe africaine : l’Algérie (championne d’Afrique), le Sénégal (vice-champion d’Afrique) et Madagascar (la révélation de la CAN 2019).
