    Sports Wednesday, June 5, 2019 15 News in brief Roy, Archer & Ahmed fined for breaching ICC code LONDON: Jason Roy and Jofra Archer have each been fined 15 percent of their match fees for incidents during England’s World Cup defeat by Pakistan at Trent Bridge. The International Cricket Council found opener Roy had breached level one of its code of conduct, using an audible obscenity after a misfield during Pakistan’s innings. Fast bowler Archer was found guilty of dissent towards an umpire’s decision following a wide delivery. Both players have also had one demerit point added to their records. Pakistan captain Sarfaraz Ahmed was fined 20 percent of his fee, and his teammates 10 percent, for a minor over-rate offence. Pakistan won Monday’s match by 14 runs after setting England a target of 349. It was an occasionally fractious encounter, with the umpires warning England skipper Eoin Morgan about his side throwing the ball in on the bounce and later issuing the same reminder to Sarfaraz. The tactic is often used to scuff up the ball and promote reverse swing. England batsman Jos Buttler appeared to take a look at the ball on his walk back to the pavilion after his knock of 103 came to an end. English crowds “stupid” to boo Warner, says manager MELBOURNE: English crowds are “stupid” to jeer David Warner at the Cricket World Cup as it will only fire him up, the Australian batsman’s manager James Erskine has said.

Após o governo do Rio atrasar a despoluição da Baía de Guanabara e a limpeza das lagoas da região do Parque Olímpico, foi a vez da prefeitura abandonar o projeto de recuperação de rios cariocas anunciado com legado da Rio­2016 para a cidade. A limpeza e canalização dos rios, todos da Bacia de Jacarepaguá, estão previstas no chamado caderno de encargos dos Jogos Olímpicos de 2016 –documento que reúne compromissos assumidos por conta do evento. Mesmo assim, a execução dos serviços prometidos ao COI (Comitê Olímpico Internacional) parou no final do ano passado após sucessivos atrasos. Por conta desses atrasos, aliás, a prefeitura do Rio rescindiu no final de dezembro o contrato que mantinha com o Consórcio Rios de Jacarepaguá para a recuperação da hidrográfica da região. O consórcio é formado por duas construtoras, a Andrade Gutierrez e a Carioca Engenharia. Ambas estão envolvidas em esquemas de corrupção apurados na Operação Lava­Jato. As empresas foram contratadas em 2011 para recuperar seis rios cariocas (Covanca, Pechinca, Tindiba, Banda da Velha, Rio Pequeno e Rio Grande). Receberiam quase R$ 236 milhões pelos serviços, que deveriam ter sido concluídos ainda em 2014.
