Alastair Cook will have to wait to become the first Englishman to reach 10,000 Test runs, as he fell for 16 on day one of the first Investec Test against Sri Lanka at Headingley.Cook and Alex Hales had worked hard on their way to 49-0 after being put into bat by Sri Lanka skipper Angelo Mathews, before Dasun Shanaka - on debut - removed the England captain with just his seventh ball in Test cricket, leaving him still 20 short of 10,000.Shanaka (3-30) added the strikes of Nick Compton and Joe Root for ducks to continue a dream debut, and after James Vince and Ben Stokes fell soon after lunch, England were reeling on 83-5.Hales (71no) and Jonny Bairstow (54no) led the England fightback, adding 88 for the sixth wicket to take England safely through to tea on 171-5, before rain meant no further play was possible for the day.Watch live coverage from day two of the first Test between England and Sri Lanka at Headingley, live on Sky Sports 2 from 10.30am on Friday.

Wholesale Air Max Shoes . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. http://www.airmaxoutletsale.us/ .com) - The game was all punts and field goals before Kodi Whitfields catch. Air max Outlet . Giroud, who wasnt in the starting lineup for two matches after allegations about his private life and a decline in form, scored twice in the first half.

Cheap Air Max Sale . -- Brandon Jennings made the most of his first game with the Detroit Pistons on Sunday night.RIO DE JANEIRO -- David Rudisha glanced to his left twice as he came round the final bend, waiting for the challenge to come. It didnt. He didnt let it.The world-record holder surged across the line to retain his Olympic title in the 800 meters on Monday, giving no one else a chance and becoming the first man in more than half a century to win back-to-back golds over two laps at the games.This is one of my greatest moments, to come here and defend my title, Rudisha said. There is nothing as great for an athlete as to maintain his performance.Rudisha won in 1 minute, 42.15 seconds, nothing on the incredible 1:40.91 he produced for his wire-to-wire win in London four years ago. But this was always going to be about the medal and not the clock, especially after a heavy downpour earlier in the evening left Rudisha and the others with a damp track at the Olympic Stadium. If theres one thing the Kenyan hates, its running in the wet.Rudisha still won well from Algerias Taoufik Makhloufi, who ran a national record time of 1:42.61 to add an 800 silver here to his gold in the 1,500 at the last Olympics. Clayton Murphy powered through in the final 50 meters for bronze and a PB of 1:42.93, overhauling Frances Pierre-Ambroise Bosse on his way to a long-awaited podium finish for the U.S. It was the first medal in the 800 for an American since Johnny Gray in 1992.Super exciting to race him, Murphy said of Rudisha, and hopefully not the last time I get to race him.Rudisha smiled at the end, a broad, beaming smile, relieved maybe after what started as a trying season when he lost a couple of times in the Diamond League and was beaten into third -- third! -- at the Kenyan trials. He freely offered up hugs to the other medalists, too, as he draped the red, black and green Kenyan flag across his shoulders once again.His legacy as one of the greatest 800 runners was pretty firm already, but he cemented it in Rio de Janeiro: The 27-year-old Rudisha has now won four of the last five major titles and the oonly one missing -- the 2013 worlds -- he was injured for.ddddddddddddWith no strong challenger coming at him -- not in this race and not in any general sense, either -- Rudisha has the potential to make history with a third straight gold in four years in Tokyo.He wants to be the best, he is the best at it, he knows hes the best, said American Boris Berian, who was eighth. Its that confidence right there. He takes it out and he has that confidence to hold on.Rudishas teammate, Alfred Kipketer, set a fast pace from the start -- like a bullet, Rudisha said -- and the defending champion had to hold himself back from getting into an early scrap. Instead, Rudisha waited for the back straight to stretch out his long legs and move past Kipketer. He built a cushion, not a big one, but he never seemed likely to get caught. Those two quick looks to the left as he approached the home straight let him know that he had it.Richard Snell of New Zealand was the last man to retain his Olympic title in the 800, at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. Some formidable recent 800 runners, including current IAAF President Sebastian Coe and Wilson Kipketer, didnt even win once in the 800 at the Olympics. Coe, an Olympic champion at 1,500, consistently says that Rudisha is one of the best athletes the sport has had.For Rudisha, this victory was absolute confirmation, if he needed it, that hes deserving of such praise from former champions. Rudisha himself could be confirmation, his country really does need it, that Kenyas distance-running culture of grass-roots talent and hard work is not being taken over by doping.The Olympics comes only every four years, Rudisha said. It means you have to be very disciplined, dedicated, focused and do the right thing to get here.---Follow Gerald Imray on Twitter at https://twitter.com/GeraldImrayAP---Follow the Rio Games at http://www.summergames.ap.org/ ' ' '
