LONDON -- Doctors could be allowed to watch TV replays of collisions from the touchline next season and then have matches stopped in response to growing concerns about the dangers of concussion.Medics would be given time to assess whether a head injury required a player to be substituted, if the International Football Association Board presses ahead with granting approval at its annual meeting in March.Members of soccers lawmaking body have also told The Associated Press that they are looking to allow coaches to watch feeds of games on the bench for tactical reasons -- provided they arent used to incite protests to officials.Technology is currently only used for in-game incidents to decide whether or not the ball crossed the line.But by the 2018 World Cup, referees could be allowed to gain additional information from an official with access to replays. IFAB is currently overseeing trials with systems that review whether goals have been scored, penalties should be awarded, players should be sent off and cases of mistaken identity.IFAB members say they are not yet ready to approve the live use of video assistant referees, or VARs.However, the March meeting will look to allow medics access to footage during games amid a growing awareness about the dangers of head-impact injuries.Englands domestic rugby league is already trialing pitch-side video reviews of potential concussions.We understand from scientific research and other sports that have introduced it that if you have a much better assessment of the injury, it might be possible, when you see the intensity and the point of contact, to evaluate potential concussions better, IFAB secretary Lukas Brud told the AP.Under protocols introduced two years ago by FIFA, referees can already stop games for three minutes to assess head injuries.We have seen enough examples where potentially if the doctor was able to use video he might have made a decision not to put a player back on the field, Brud said.Incidents that result in a concussion might have been missed by the officials. But any replays reviewed for medical reasons could not be consulted by a referee until VARs are fully approved by IFAB.We want to make sure whatever footage is allowed to be viewed is used for medical purposes only and there are no unintended consequences where footage is then being used for other purposes, Scottish Football Association chief executive Stewart Regan, an IFAB member, told the AP.It could take beyond IFABs annual meeting in March to decide whether to sanction the use of technological aids on the bench by coaches, including tablets with live feeds of games and replays.Theres pragmatism within IFAB as it recognizes that its hard to curb the use of mobile technology.Theres still a little bit of concern in terms where we may end up with this, Regan said. Everyone understands technology is more and more prevalent in football and more and more coaches are using it -- iPads are basically being used to replace pads and paper in many cases.The problem is no one knows if that iPad has a Wi-Fi connection and is being used to transmit images of the game. If those images of the game are used to put pressure on the fourth official or the referee then thats a direction we dont want to go in. We are still looking into it.Turkey coach Fatih Terim was ordered by the fourth official during a friendly against England in May to stop using his mobile phone on the bench in Manchester. Terim remonstrated with the official after England striker Harry Kane appeared to score from an off-side position.Everyone is using phones and tablets and the fourth officials job is not to check constantly what is being used in the technical area but currently its against the laws of the game, Brud said from IFABs base in Zurich.We dont want to create situations where players and coaches are being sent to the stands because they were using a mobile phone ... we need to focus on the behavior when using it. So if have coach with access to replays approaches the fourth official and says a player was offside, the coach can be punished.---Rob Harris can be followed at www.twitter.com/RobHarris and www.facebook.com/RobHarrisReportsEddie LeBaron Jersey . Following a lopsided 5-2 loss against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night, Paul MacLean told reporters that "theres a lack of focus, theres a lack of leadership and theres a lack of preparation" with his struggling team. That came on the heels of Bryan Murray taking the unusual step of going into the locker room at the Prudential Center and addressing the players himself.

The story till thenIndia went into the 1983 World Cup with an ODI record of played 40, won 12 and lost 28. Their most notable World Cup moment till then was Sunil Gavaskars 36 off 174 balls in their very first match, in 1975. But they began the 1983 World Cup on the front foot, beating holders West Indies and then pulling off an improbable win over Zimbabwe thanks to Kapil Devs unbeaten 175. A win over England in the semis and they were at Lords to take on West Indies, who were aiming for a hat-trick of titles.The moment In the final, West Indies won the toss, put India in and restricted them to a fairly underwhelming 183 - a total thanks in large part to Kris Srikkanths 38. At the halfway stage it seemed game over, given West Indies batting firepower. They lost their openers with 50 on the board, but had Viv Richards and Clive Lloyd at the crease. Then came the moment that turned the match: a stunning catch by Kapil Dev to dismmiss Richards, and West Indies caved in to lose by 43 runs.dddddddddddd.The reaction The 1983 World Cup changed the entire sport in our country and gave a new dimension to Indian cricket - Kapil DevExpert view A great moment as the whole country could relate to this hugely popular game and feel the collective pride in the achievement. - Suma Shirur, shooterThe story since Much of what Indian cricket is today - especially its commercial status - can be directly linked back to that day at Lords. The immediate follow-up was winning the World Championship of Cricket in 1985, and since then India have been among crickets top teams. The financial impact was far greater; the next World Cup was held on the subcontinent, as have two more since. India is now firmly established as the games economic powerhouse. ' ' '
