England and the West Indies will battle to become the first two-time winners of the World Twenty20 in Sundays mouth-watering final at Kolkatas Eden Gardens. For England, reaching the final has been a remarkable achievement, given some woeful white-ball performances in the last few years.They were dumped out of the 50-over World Cup in the pool phase last year, the lowlight a meek surrender to Bangladesh, and there was great embarrassment in the 2014 World T20, when they lost to the Netherlands.This tournament has been a rollercoaster ride. Destroyed by the Windies - and Chris Gayle in particular - in the opening game, they then had to pull off a world record run chase of 230 in their second match to beat South Africa and stay in the tournament.From the sublime, they slumped to the ridiculous against Afghanistan, collapsing to 57-6 against the tournament minnows, before Englands bowlers bailed the batsmen out.But their victories against Sri Lanka and, in the semi-final, against New Zealand, were masterclasses in T20 international cricket, with brutal power-hitting from Jason Roy, Joe Root and Jos Buttler and nerveless death bowling from Ben Stokes and Chris Jordan. England will continue to play attacking cricket no matter what, says Joe Root No team has hit more sixes than Englands 34 in the tournament - a marked contrast to last years 50-over World Cup when they rarely cleared the ropes. Stokes and Jordan go full and fast, often well wide of off stump, and have enjoyed considerable success so far.But David Willey might be a key man in the final. The ball should swing in the humid conditions and he will be looking to get the ball moving against Gayle - who rarely moves his feet - in particular. Rob Key and Nasser Hussain take a look at the pitch ahead of the ICC World T20 final Roy, one of the stars of the new-look England, promised they would come at their opponents with all guns blazing and continue in the same aggressive vein that has confounded their old conservative reputation.Its going to be an incredible experience but we are going to play our natural way and the brand of cricket we have been playing for the last year or so, said the Surrey star.The Windies spoiled Indias party by knocking the hosts out in the semi-finals, but their journey to the final has proven that they are not reliant on Gayle - or Universe Boss as he called himself after carting England all over Mumbai. Chris Gayles brutal innings destroyed England in Mumbai Since Gayles thunderous 100no - off just 48 balls - against England, he has chipped in with just nine runs, and it has been unsung heroes - Jonathan Charles, Lendl Simmons and Andre Russell - who have powered them into Sundays showpiece.England will certainly be aware that it is certainly not a one-man show in this team, Simmons said after his match-winning innings against India. Lendl Simmons unbeaten 82 off 51 balls helped West Indies beat India The West Indies love playing England - they have won nine of the 13 T20 international clashes between the two teams, and all four meetings at the World Twenty20.There will be 66,000 in Eden Gardens, one of the worlds great cricketing cathedrals, so experience will count and the Windies have a serious edge there too. Eight of the team which won the 2012 tournament are likely to play in the final, while only Eoin Morgan survives from the England team which won in 2010.But, as Sky Sports expert Nasser Hussain says, this young England are a side who dont fear anyone.

The 27-year-old Scrivens will be joining his third NHL club since signing with the Toronto Maple Leafs as a free agent in 2010. The move also reunites with him with head coach Dallas Eakins from their time together with the American Hockey Leagues Toronto Marlies. ALAMEDA, Calif. -- For a team that hasnt had much success playing at home this season, the Oakland Raiders are embracing a 10-day road trip to Florida.Rather than disrupt his teams normal schedule with a pair of 5,600-mile round-trip flights on consecutive weekends for games in Jacksonville and Tampa Bay, coach Jack Del Rio decided to have the Raiders take an extended stay on the East Coast.They left for the first leg of their journey Friday following practice and wont return to the Bay Area until Oct. 30.I think its going to be great, I really do, quarterback Derek Carr said. Just to be out somewhere different with everybody. When you get those times at the hotel to be around each other, to eat every meal together (and) do those things, I think its nothing but good. Whenever you can spend as much time around each other as possible, its really good.Considering how well the Raiders have played away from home this season, Carr has good reason to be optimistic.Oakland is one of three teams that are 3-0 on the road this season, joining Dallas and Seattle. The Raiders have won in New Orleans, Tennessee and Baltimore, all three places where theyve historically struggled to play well before this year.At home its been a different story. Oakland is 1-2 at the Coliseum this season and 4-7 since Del Rio took over.Del Rio and his staff contemplated staying in the East earlier this year when they played the Titans and Ravens in back-to-back games but opted to do it this time around instead. The plan, Del Rio said, is to keep the players daily routines as normal as possible in between the games against the Jaguars and Bucs.That means everything from practice schedules to team meetings and meals. Some players will also have their families along, something Carr believes will help the players feel comfortable while on the road.If we bed check them here, well bed check them there, Del Rio said. All of the wayss we operate, .dddddddddddd. what time they have, when we meet and how we meet and the material they get, when we feed them are going to remain as much on schedule as possible.Staying away for home for back-to-back road games has become a trend in the NFL over recent years. Jacksonville did it in 2013 when it played in Oakland in Week 2 and at Seattle in Week 3. The Jaguars stayed in the Bay Area and practiced at San Jose State in between the two games.Just having the team together for a week . you really limit distractions, Jacksonville coach Gus Bradley said. Youre away from anything that can be a distraction at home. I think the guys spend a lot of time together. We just felt like it brought our team closer together.Del Rio said the extended trip has been more of an issue for football operations coordinator Tom Jones and equipment manager Bob Romanski than it has been for the players.Its similar to like going to training camp in what they have to do, Del Rio said. They take down the computers and some of the things like that. Theres a lot of work behind the scenes. Thats who has the real strain.For us, players and coaches, its going to be very seamless. Basically football preparation as we know it, just doing it in a different environment.Game notes Running back Taiwan Jones (toe) remains questionable after being limited for a third straight day in practice but the Raiders are encouraged about his progress. Center Rodney Hudson (knee), right guard Gabe Jackson (knee), running back Taiwan Jones (knee), right tackle Menelik Watson (calf) and safety Brynden Trawick (shoulder) were all limited and are questionable. Rookie offensive lineman Vadal Alexander (ankle) did not practice and is doubtful.----Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
