England women will conclude their busiest-ever year of international cricket by taking on Sri Lanka in the final round of ICC Womens Championship in November.The three-match ODI series was today confirmed by the England & Wales Cricket Board, and will take place at the Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on November 12, 15 and 17.England are currently third on 19 points in the Championship standings, which serve as the qualification tournament for the 2017 World Cup, with Sri Lanka lying in eighth, having won just twice in their first five rounds of the competition.Arguably the bigger test of Englands credentials will come when they travel to Jamaica next month to play West Indies in the penultimate round of the ICC WC. Stafanie Taylors team are one point ahead of England in second place on the table, meaning that the result from that series will have a significant bearing on the final qualification standings.The tour to Sri Lanka will mark the end of the busiest ever year for the England womens team and the conclusion of the ICC Womens Championship, said Mark Robinson, England Womens Head Coach. It will be another good test to mark how we are progressing as a squad, as we bid to overcome a passionate home team in the heat and humidity of Sri Lanka.As always, it will be a challenge that we will relish, as we keep building for the future and look ahead to the ICC Womens World Cup on home soil next year.Prior to arriving in Colombo, the squad will take part in a six-day training camp in Abu Dhabi from November 1-7.

Clippers?forward Paul Pierce announced Monday via The Players Tribune that he will return for his 19th season, then retire.This is it, my final season, Pierce said. Its time to move on from the game of basketball. Just like any difficult decision, I think youve got to be at peace with yourself. Im at peace with retiring, but Ive got one more ride left. One more season. One more opportunity.Pierce, who turns 39 in October, said he felt uncertainty about coming back for 2016-17 because of the grind of another NBA offseason. But upon contemplating the Clippers first-round playoff loss to the Portland Trail Blazers, he said unfinished business pulled him back to Los Angeles for another title run.I think why not give it one more shot, especially the way we went out of the playoffs, the injuries, Pierce said at Clippers media day Monday. Obviously, youve got to be good, youve got to be lucky, but I just want to just give it one more shot.Like I said, to win a championship here for the Los Angeles Clippers would be monumental, and if I can be a part of that, thats something I thought about, and thats something that drove me from August, starting in August on.Clippers coach Doc Rivers addressed Pierces decision to make this season his last as an NBA player.Paul has meant a lot to me, obviously, said Rivers, who won an NBA title with Pierce in Boston in 2008. When you win a title with someone, just like him and KG [Kevin Garnett] and the whole group, youre connected with that person, those people for the rest of your lives, and you should be.Earlier this month, Rivers said Pierce was on the fence about returning for another season but that he believed Pierce has something left in the tank.Pierce played the first 15 seasons of his career in Boston, nine of them forr Rivers.ddddddddddddRivers recruited Pierce to Los Angeles last season as a veteran presence with knowledge of how to win an NBA championship, hoping he would be the final piece to push the Clippers over the top. But injuries to All-Stars?Blake Griffin and Chris Paul led to a first-round postseason exit.Paul is not going to be in a lot of highlights, but when you watch how he played, and fundamentally how well he played, I think thats actually what kids should really watch, is how he did it without using his athleticism that he actually has, Rivers said.Pierce has averaged 20.6 points and 5.7 rebounds per game in his career. After his Boston tenure, he spent one season with the Brooklyn Nets, another with the Washington Wizards and last year with the Clippers. He averaged 6.1 points and 2.7 rebounds per game last season.With the Clippers, in the city where I grew up, I feel like I have that opportunity on a great team,?Pierce wrote Monday. Were hungry. We want to win a championship.After 18 NBA years, its hard to believe Ill be playing in each arena for the last time. So Im going to enjoy every practice, every bus ride, every team dinner, every time running out through the tunnel. Im going to do my part to give us a shot at the ultimate goal.Pierce was the No. 10 pick out of Kansas in the 1998 NBA draft. The 10-time All-Star is currently 16th on the NBA all-time scoring list with 26,316 points.Ive been in the NBA 18 years, but Ive been playing basketball, like, 30 years, Pierce said Monday. Its hard to walk away from that, but like most homes, you get that 30-year mortgage. Ive paid it off, so its time to ride off into the sunset. ' ' '
