Jamieson, 30, has only just recovered from a back injury of his own, having spent 10 months out of the game. His hiatus from ODI cricket stretches back even longer - till September 2023. He has recent form going his way though. Jamieson proved his fitness during the Super Smash T20 competition, along with the talents that made him eye-catching in the first place, bowling full lengths and getting the ball to swing in. He picked up 14 wickets in 12 innings at an economy rate of 5.95. Helped by that performance, his domestic team, Canterbury, made it to the final. Jamieson has also earned a PSL deal and will play for Quetta Gladiators later this year.

Western Australia 112 for 1 (Whiteman 67) trail Queensland 147 (Rocchiccioli 7-52) by 35 runs

Spinner Corey Rocchiccioli bagged his best first-class figures as Western Australia dominated Queensland on day one of their Sheffield Shield game.

Rocchiccioli snared 7 for 52 as Queensland were bowled out for 147 at the Gabba in Brisbane. WA cruised to 112 for 1 in reply, with Sam Whiteman making 67.

WA (24.91 points) are in last place, with Queensland (27.75) third on a table topped by South Australia (36.93). But with three games including this fixture remaining, Rocchiccioli's feats have given WA a superb opportunity to jump up the ladder.

The 27-year-old had never previously taken five wickets in a first-class innings but spun his way to a career-best day. He captured seven of the last nine wickets to fall as the Queensland batsmen struggled.

Ben McDermott top-scored with 37 from 112 balls. Next best were No.10 Mitchell Swepson (20 not out) and No. 8 Xavier Bartlett (20).

Matthew Renshaw, Jimmy Peirson and Michael Neser were among those to fall cheaply against Rocchiccioli and paceman Cameron Gannon.

Neser fell to a superb one-handed catch from Rocchiccioli, diving to his right from his own bowling. He also took a smart, diving return catch to dismiss Renshaw.

WA's openers Whiteman and Sam Fanning then cashed in for the visitors with their unbroken partnership. Whiteman set an aggressive tone, smacking seven fours and three sixes in his 88-ball innings before being bowled by Tom Whitney about 25 minutes before stumps. Fanning was more circumspect, striking two fours from his 107 deliveries.

BOSTON -- Sweden rallied after falling behind just 35 seconds into the game and Samuel Ersson made 31 saves Monday night to beat the United States 2-1 in the 4 Nations Face-Off round-robin finale, handing the title game-bound Americans their first loss of the tournament.

The nightcap meant nothing to either the Americans or Swedes: The U.S. had already clinched a spot in Thursday night's championship game against Canada, which beat Finland earlier Monday, and Sweden needed Canada to falter to have a chance of making the final.

With some fans wearing powdered wigs and colonial-era tricorn hats, the Boston crowd bellowed "The Star-Spangled Banner" before the game -- a response to the Canadians who booed the U.S. national anthem before the early matchups in Montreal. Chants of "U-S-A!" rang out through the TD Garden in the final minutes, with goalie Jake Oettinger pulled for an extra skater, but the Americans couldn't beat Ersson to force overtime.

Chris Kreider gave the Americans the lead in the opening minute, but Gustav Nyquist tied it a dozen minutes later, and Jesper Bratt gave Sweden the lead with less than a minute remaining in the first period. The next two periods remained scoreless despite the Americans having an overall 32-23 edge in shots on goal.

The Americans reached the final by winning their first two round-robin games, against Canada and Finland. The North American rivals will have a change to reprise the fight-filled round-robin matchup that was the most-watched non-Stanley Cup Final hockey game since 2019.

The Americans started the game a player down with Auston Matthews out, and then Brady Tkachuk left in the second period after colliding with Ersson in the crease. More disappointing for the Boston fans was Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy being scratched from the lineup.

If you don't shoot, you don't score. It's a basic mantra you probably heard from your under-8s coach.

Well, there are 139 players in the Premier League alone who shoot more than the center forward of Manchester United. That's right: One hundred one footballers who have played as many minutes or more as Rasmus Højlund, but have a higher shots-per-90 number.

Put differently, there are 187 outfield players who have played at least 1,200 minutes, like Højlund. More than half of them have taken more shots on goal than he has -- a list that includes defenders, holding midfielders and other players who don't spend much time at all in the opposing penalty area.

When it comes to understanding why Manchester United have trouble scoring goals -- only four teams have scored fewer than their 28 -- one reason could be that number: 1.20, the number of shots their center forward takes every 90 minutes.

If you don't shoot, you don't score.

Compare Højlund's 1.20 to his peers at other top clubs: Erling Haaland (3.82), Nicolas Jackson (3.24), Ollie Watkins (3.26), Alexander Isak (3.09), Luis Díaz (2.71), Darwin Núñez (2.60), Dominic Solanke (2.59). Heck, even the much-maligned Kai Havertz clocks in at 2.54.

Obviously goals (let alone shots) aren't the only metric to judge a center forward. But when you have a central striker -- especially in a 3-4-2-1 system -- who doesn't score much (he has two league goals) in part because he rarely shoots, it's worth diving into further. Because you're tempted to conclude that the issue is either Højlund or Ruben Amorim's system or some combination of the two.

Is it the system? Well, Amorim played the same system at Sporting CP, and his center forward there, Viktor Gyökeres, is averaging 4.59 shots per 90 minutes this season after notching 3.52 last season (and scoring 51 league goals since August 2023, which is more than four times as many as Højlund). Sometimes Amorim uses another center forward, Joshua Zirkzee. He isn't having the sort of season to write home about -- and has spent time in attacking midfield too, further away from goal -- but he still manages 1.96 per game, nearly twice as many as Højlund.

So is it Højlund? You're tempted to think so. He doesn't shoot much under Amorim and didn't shoot much under Erik ten Hag (it was marginally better at 1.40, but still very much subpar.) For that matter, he didn't shoot much in the season he spent at Sturm Graz in Austria, either, registering 2.10 shots per 90. The only time his number nosed above 2.5 is in the six months he was at Atalanta, when he reached 2.65, albeit on a far more attacking, high-tempo team.

If you don't shoot, you don't score.

Does this make Højlund the culprit of all the club's attacking woes? No. Obviously, there are other factors at play here. At United, he's alongside midfielder Bruno Fernandes, who averages 2.98 per 90, and that's bound to drive down his numbers. Not to mention, of course, that a center forward's job isn't just shooting on goal: Roberto Firmino didn't shoot much or score much for Liverpool, and he did rather well. Plus, Højlund just turned 22, and it's safe to assume he can improve with age.

That said, there's clearly a problem here. A central striker who shoots so infrequently either isn't getting himself into positions to shoot, lacks the confidence to shoot, or plays for a team that doesn't provide him the right kind of service to get into scoring situations. (Or, possibly, all of the above.)

It's up to Højlund to improve. It's up to Amorim to fix what United do in the final third. And if there is no uptick in his shots (and because they're correlated, his goals), it's up to the club to decide when to cut their losses and find somebody who will fire on goal at the right time.

If you don't shoot, you don't score.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. -- Third-ranked Duke defeated Virginia 80-62 on Monday night but lost key reserve forward Maliq Brown in the process.

Brown dislocated his left shoulder with 1:21 left in the first half, Blue Devils coach Jon Scheyer said, and did not return. He was expected to get imaging done later Monday.

"He's a big loss for us," Scheyer said. "Find out what the deal is and then go from there. I don't know more than that."

The 6-foot-9 junior, who transferred from Syracuse, is second on the team with 30 steals and third with nine blocked shots.

"He's been a great teammate," Kon Knueppel said. "He's very unselfish and [a] great passer. ... He's very, very impactful for our team."

The game -- which was Duke's third straight victory -- was a homecoming for Brown, who grew up in Culpeper, an hour away.

Brown had two points, two assists and a rebound in 10 minutes. He appeared to injure his left arm reaching into a passing lane to deflect a ball.

An hour after the game, Brown emerged from the locker room to greet family and Duke fans. He took photos with his arm in a sling before heading to the team bus.

With Brown sidelined, Duke turned to Patrick Ngongba II, who scored eight points and grabbed a rebound in 11 minutes.

Scheyer said Ngongba has developed over the season and will be ready to contribute if Brown's injury keeps him out for the Blue Devils' next game, which is against Illinois on Saturday at Madison Square Garden.

Scheyer noted Ngongba played significant minutes in the Blue Devils' win over Wake Forest in January.

Scheyer said that players who aren't getting much playing time in his program compete in "stay ready" games to keep them sharp and prepared in the event they're pressed into action.

"I've seen such growth from him throughout the season," Scheyer said. "He's been in some big-time moments."
