The BCCI is yet to decide on moving the fifth and final Test between India and England from December 16 out of Chennai following the death of Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa on Monday. Ajay Shirke, the secretary, said the board was seeking inputs from the host association - the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA) - and monitoring the situation closely. He also said no deadline had been set for naming an alternate venue since it was an evolving situation.We havent taken any decision with regard to the Chennai Test match, Shirke told reporters after the meeting of the senior tournament committee in Mumbai. Its a very sensitive decision. We are keeping a close watch on the situation and we are taking the inputs from the local host association as to what is the mood and the sentiment of the people, and based on what evolves, the final decision for the match will be taken.TNCA secretary Kasi Viswanathan, however, wrote to the board that Chennai was ready to host the Test. We have communicated to the BCCI this morning that we wont be able to host the ongoing Ranji Trophy game [between Odisha and Jharkhand in Natham near Dindigul] and under-19 match because of state mourning for seven days and closure of schools and colleges for three days, he told ESPNcricinfo. But, we will host the Test match because after December 12 the [week-long] mourning period is over.We are monitoring the situation almost on an hourly or a daily basis, he said. The BCCI has got a number of alternate venues; in fact, there are new venues which have been added so there is no paucity of venues for hosting a Test match. Again, that should not be read as a decision [of the game] having been shifted.The MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai last hosted a Test match three years ago against Australia, while its most recent international game came last year in an ODI against South Africa. During Englands tour of India in 2008, Chennai emerged as one the two alternate venues after the terror attacks in Mumbai forced the Test matches to be moved out of Mumbai and Ahmedabad.Wholesale Adidas Nmd . -- Washington Redskins tight end Fred Davis was charged Thursday with driving while intoxicated, a day after he was suspended for an NFL substance-abuse policy violation.

The patch, shaped like home plate, carries the number 715, Aarons autograph and a "40th Anniversary" banner.INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indianapolis Colts spent Wednesday adapting to the new reality that leading tackler DQwell Jackson will miss the last four games of the regular season.One day after the league suspended Jackson for violating the leagues performance-enhancing substance policy, inside linebackers Edwin Jackson and Antonio Morrison were getting acclimated to being the defenses new signal-callers. Others tried to fill the void of one of the Colts steadiest locker room leaders.Its an obvious letdown, tight end Dwayne Allen said. We want those guys on the field, but we also understand mistakes happen.Neither the league nor the Colts have said what substance Jackson used.Jackson wont be permitted back at the team complex until Jan. 2, when the Colts will either be cleaning out their lockers or preparing for a playoff game.The timing couldnt be worse.After losing their first two games, the Colts (6-6) have been fighting to get back into playoff position . Now, with three wins in four games, Indy has moved into a three-way tie atop the AFC South with Houston and Tennessee, and seemed to be building momentum for the key stretch run.Suddenly, the offense appeared to be in sync, the defense was holding up better and everything seemed to be clicking.Then less than 24 hours after finishing a 41-10 thrashing of the New York Jets , NFL officials made the announcement.The 33-year-old inside linebacker made his only Pro Bowl two years ago and was having another solid season with 81 tackles -- 21 more than anyone else on the roster. He also had one sack and recovered two fumbles.But the more problematic issue is that Jackson was the most experienced inside linebacker on the team and, until Monday night, almost exclusively called the defenses.Edwin Jackson, who had never played in an NFL game until this season, got his first real taste of signal calling in short bursts against the Jets.That was very important because that was my first time actually getting the calls and relaying it to the defense, Edwin Jackson said. You dont want these things to happen, but it happens.The switch may have been coming regardless of the failed drug test.DQwell Jackson left Monday nights game in the fourth quarter with a concussion and had already eentered the leagues mandated concussion protocol.dddddddddddd Because it usually takes players the better part of a week to clear all the steps, Jacksons status on a short week already could have been in jeopardy for Sundays crucial game with Houston.Losing him for four games, though, will be a bigger blow for a team that hasnt been above .500 all season. Indy still must visit AFC West leader Oakland and playoff contender Minnesota before closing out the season at home against struggling Jacksonville.Coach Chuck Pagano knows it will require more than just good play from Edwin Jackson, an undrafted player who spent last December on Indys practice squad. Theres Morrison, a fourth-round pick out of Florida; Josh McNary, a third-year player from Army who has done most of his work on special teams; and Luke Rhodes, a rookie from William & Mary who was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday.Antonios tough, hes smart, he knows the defense inside, out. Hes a downhill, sideline-to-sideline guy. Hell be fine, Pagano said. Hes been told from Day 1 to prepare as a starter for this moment and hes done that. So that will give him a chance to play well.The Colts certainly need Morrison -- and everyone else -- to play well until DQwell Jackson returns.Its the National Football League and youre going to have adversity and youre going to have obstacles, Pagano said. Weve been without our quarterback before. Do you want to be? No. Weve been without (Robert Mathis) before. So its next man up.Game notesRight guard Denzelle Good was diagnosed with a concussion during the Jets game and nose tackle Zach Kerr and outside linebacker Curt Maggitt both complained of concussion-like symptoms after the game. All three are also in the leagues protocol. ... Mathis is listed as day to day with a biceps injury, and safety Clayton Geathers is considered week to week with a neck injury. ... Offensive lineman Joe Reitz, an Indianapolis native, was selected as the teams Walter Payton Man of the Year Award winner.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL .
