Daryl Mitchell has spoken out about the devastating news of his sacking as Worcestershire captain after more than six years in charge.Mitchell, 32, has led Worcestershire to two promotions in the Championship as they have constantly alternated between Division One and Two, but promotion eluded them this season and he had paid the price. Allrounder Joe Leach has been named as his successor.Mitchell was privately informed of his removal by Worcestershires director of cricket, Steve Rhodes, on Monday and rejected the opportunity to resign - preferring to speak openly about the shock that he believes was felt not only by himself but also many of his team-mates.Being sacked from my role as captain on Monday morning came as devastating news to me he wrote in a message posted on Twitter. This is certainly the most difficult thing Ive had to deal with in my professional career.As you can probably imagine it came as quite a shock, I am bitterly disappointed and left deeply hurt by the decision. I informed the players and staff last night and their messages of support have been overwhelming. Knowing that my team-mates share the shock is of great comfort to me.Mitchell, normally the mainstay of Worcestershires batting, averaged only 34 in the Championship and failed to reach 1000 first-class runs and admitted that off-field issues had undermined him in the first half of the season.2016 has been a difficult year for me with a lot on my plate off the field, poor form with the bat in the early part of the season and if Im honest I havent been at my best as captain in certain parts of the year, he said.However, I did feel things had turned the corner, I finished the season well, and after a freshen up over the winter I was looking forward to leading the team in competing for trophies in 2017. Unfortunately this was not to be.I was given the opportunity to resign but I felt it important that everybody knew the truth and the one thing I most certainly am not is a quitter.Although I disagree with the decision, I do fully respect it and know it been made with the very best intentions for Worcestershire CCC moving forward. Ive been in professional sport long enough to know, sometimes you just have to take things on the chin and move on.I would like to thanks Steve Rhodes for giving me the opportunity to fulfil a childhood dream of becoming captain of Worcestershire CCC. I guess like all dreams you have to wake up at some point.Leach, the countys vice captain, had a season to remember. He finished as leading wicket-taker in Division Two of the Championship with 65 victims and scoring neary 600 runs. Vapormax Flyknit 2 Outlet .

The Browns coaching search remains incomplete. Essendon prolonged the AFL careers of James Kelly and Matt Dea earlier this year, now theyre contemplating an extension of the lifeline.Kelly and Dea were among the 10 top-up players recruited by the Bombers, who lost 12 of their best and most experienced stars to doping bans earlier this year.It was meant to be a one-season arrangement.But former Richmond defender Dea and ex-Geelong gun Kelly have impressed the Bombers with their skill, leadership and durability.Kelly has missed only two games this season, while Dea was a last-minute withdrawl in round 13 but has otherwise played every match this year.James Kelly and Matty Dea have been very strong performers all year, Bombers coach John Worsfold said, when asked if the club would consider drafting any of the top-up talent.Matty Dea is in a prime age bracket. There may be other clubs who have seen how well hes performed for us this year and may be looking at him.But well certainly look at that as an option without guaranteeing anything and Keelly is a bit the same.ddddddddddddeve just got to wait and see what options weve got in terms of numbers of picks in the draft and where it all sits.Well work through that after next week.Worsfold was full of praise for Dea, Kelly and the other eight olds hands who joined the club on short notice.Theyve all been outstanding. It hasnt gone perfectly for a lot of them, he said.Theyve all had fairly significant injuries ... but the way theyve fought through that and continued to add value has been outstanding.I suppose its a credit to the younger group that are on our list that we havent needed to play all of them every week.Mathew Stokes played his 200th - and final - game on Sunday, with Worsfold proud of the fact his club helped the 31-year-old reach the milestone.Hes forever part of the Essendon Football Club history now, and a well-respected part, Worsfold said.
