West Indies T20 captain Carlos Brathwaite has pointed out that top-order issues have been the major worry for them in the two matches against Pakistan in Dubai. West Indies were reduced to 17 for 4 in the first T20, before being bowled out for 115, and were tottering at 19 for 3 while chasing 161 in the second T20. They lost both matches and now the teams move to Abu Dhabi for the third T20 on Tuesday.The one glaring thing I can see [that went wrong in the first two matches] is the batting, especially top-order batting, Brathwaite said on Monday. We havent been making the most of the first six overs with only two fielders out. And then it became harder and harder…in the first game we had five wickets down. And then chasing 160 and [being] only 20-odd after the first six, its going to be a lot more difficult especially with such huge boundaries. So our top-order batting and the misuse of the first six overs was our downfall in the first two games.Their top three batsmen - Johnson Charles, Evin Lewis and Andre Fletcher - fell for low scores, leaving much of the work for the middle and lower order. While openers Charles and Lewis managed scores of 7 and 10, and 1 and 3 respectivly, No. 3 Fletcher scored 2 and 29. Among all batsmen who have batted in the two T20s, only one - Dwayne Bravo - has scored over 30. Brathwaite said it was the collective effort he was concerned about, and not the performance of any single player, when asked about Andre Fletchers form.Its about each and every person, not only one single one, Brathwaite said. As a batting unit we did not come to the party, we didnt perform as we wanted to do in the two games. We dont want to single out Fletcher. He has done very very well for the West Indies in the recent past and if you remember he had scored a match-winning 80-odd against Sri Lanka in the [T20] World Cup. So one or two bad games do not make him a bad player. Fletcher knows what he has to do to be better than he has been in the first two days, so has the top order. Its about them going back to the rooms, recalibrating, finding ways and means to execute different plans.West Indies biggest positive has been their legspinner Samuel Badree, their only bowler to concede at less than seven runs per over in the series so far. Even though West Indies were defending only 115 in the first T20, he opened the bowling and finished with 4-0-27-1, taking the only wicket that fell. In the second T20, Badree was their most economical bowler with figures of 4-0-24-1. He bowled Pakistan opener Sharjeel Khan on both occasions.Simplicity [is his strong point], he keeps it simple, he knows his strengths, Brathwaite said about Badree. I think himself and Imad Wasim are quite similar, as in they are not big turners of the ball and they probably wont keep you awake at night but when they get into the game and the way they bowl wicket to wicket - you miss I hit - thats been successful for Badree, the No. 1 bowler in the world and you can see why.Brathwaite also reflected on his learnings as captain from the second series he has been leading his team in. He took over from Darren Sammy and won his first series as T20 captain when they beat India 1-0 in the two-match series in Florida last month. Brathwaite said he was feeling more confident with his role as captain with more matches under his belt, even though they were trailing 2-0 in the current series.I have learnt a lot. So I am not really judging myself and thinking because I want to win the series and make the West Indies fans happy, he said. If we can help the fans to continue to enjoy T20 cricket then Id think I have done a good job. Up until now, we havent so its up to me to motivate the guys for the next game to help put a smile on the fans faces.I dont know if its more comfortable or more familiar but Im still new into the job, but thats not an excuse [for losing]. As we go on, I feel a lot more confidence with things. I dont know for how long Ill be in the job for but just want us to do a good job and even get better at it.The visitors had faced extremely hot conditions in Dubai last week and are likely to face more of that in Abu Dhabi with the highest temperature expected to go close to 40 degrees. Brathwaite said they had not adjusted that poorly but stated it was more likely to be a bigger factor during the ODIs and Tests in the coming weeks.It is what it is. The heat wont change, probably it will be hotter as we go into the 50-over as we start early and then Test cricket which will see longer days. So I wont say its easy but you know we have to adjust, we havent adjusted that poorly. However, we have completed the 20 overs within the time frame and coming off the field dont think too many guys were panting. So we seemed fit enough to get through 20 overs with good intensity. The heat is a factor but I dont think it had any bearing on them getting on to 160 and us not restricting them to 140 or 150.Orel Hershiser Jersey .

New bodywork regulations will also be introduced for next season in order to create more exciting cars, delivering additional downforce to increase speeds and lower lap times.Qualifying to be revampedF1 has held three-part knockout qualifying sessions since 2006, and while the structure of Q1, Q2 and Q3 sessions will be retained, there will be more regular eliminations during the hour of running.Under the proposal, Q1 would last for 16 minutes and after seven minutes the slowest driver would be knocked out and forced to return to the pit lane. Six more drivers would then be eliminated at 90-second intervals before the session concluded. Qualifying hours could be more frenetic in 2016 With 15 drivers left in the running, a 15-minute Q2 session would then take place with the next slowest driver knocked out after six minutes followed by four more at 90-second intervals.Eight rather than 10 drivers would then take part in the final Q3 session to determine pole position. This phase would increase from 10 to 14 minutes in length but the driver with the slowest time would be eliminated after five minutes and then one more every 90 seconds.The fastest two drivers would then be left to contest pole in the final minute and a half of the session.

Maybe one or two of the hot-shoes arent going to make it [to the front]. So we wont see the obvious on the front of the grid.The FIA stated the changes are being evaluated for introduction, potentially as soon as the beginning of the 2016 season. Provided the plans go ahead after further analysis, they will have to be ratified by the World Motor Sport Council on March 4 to be included for the new season which begins in Australia on March 20.While the current qualifying format has been deemed a success over the past decade, it appears team chiefs believe more constant eliminations during the hour will increase the chances of creating more unpredictable grids with driver or team mistakes more heavily penalised. Rachel Brookes brings you the latest updates from pre-season testing in Barcelona.dddddddddddd Sky F1 commentator David Croft tweeted: Cant say whether the new qualy format will be a change for the better until we get the full details but I do wonder why it needed a change?With the rules necessitating that cars are on track more often during the hour, the prospect of cars running into traffic while navigating past eliminated cars on their way back to the pits would increase.So, musical chairs qualifying its to be? said Sky F1 analyst Mark Hughes. Stewards are going to need eyes in backs of heads to see every single blocking move, esp Q1.Ted Kravitz is not convinced the idea will succeed in ensuring the fastest cars are on track more often during the hour.I wonder whether the F1 bosses on the Commission pay attention to how F1 cars produce quick qualifying times, he said. The best times are set when the tyre is on its first or second hot lap. After that, the best performance of the tyre is gone and the lap times dont improve. Constant eliminations would increase the prospect of drivers finding each other at different speeds on track So the reality is that teams will not just go out onto the track and keep going round and round to set quicker times. Theyll go out, set what they hope is the quickest time on a fresh tyre, come back in, and let the slower cars get dropped one by one as the session progresses.In addition to rules for the forthcoming season, the Geneva meetings were aimed at establishing a resolution on regulations for 2017 amid attempts to make cars faster and more dramatic-looking. The deadline has been pushed back to April 30, but agreement has been reached on increases to the width and weight of cars.Future F1 needs a masterplan, not bubble bursts of random ideas that find a way through the many faceted and largely impenetrable systems, said Martin Brundle.However, in a move that is likely to be welcomed by the majority of drivers, the Commission agreed on the introduction of some form of cockpit protection from 2017 with the Mercedes-inspired halo concept set to be adopted. The halo cockpit protection for drivers has moved one step closer to being introduced from next year The first race of the 2016 F1 season, the Australian GP, is exclusively live on Sky Sports F1.
