Adelaide, Apr. 8 : Adelaide Police have said that they are not treating the death of former world champion cyclist Jobie Dajka as suspicious.

The body of the 2002 Commonwealth Games and world championships gold medallist was discovered at his Adelaide home late on Tuesday, Fox Sports reports.

The cause of Dajka''s death is not yet known but it doesn''t appear suspicious, South Australian Police say.

Dajka, who won the world Keirin title and shared the Commonwealth team sprint title, had admitted to alcoholism and depression following his omission from Australia''s 2004 Athens Olympic team for lying to a doping inquiry.

Wellington, Apr. 8: New Zealand cricket team coach Andy Moles says that he is looking forward to strike bowler Shane Bond’s return to international cricket after he quits the unsanctioned ICL Twenty20 competition.

Bond has indicated that he plans to play a full season for Canterbury in 2009-10, not simply the limited overs competitions. And if the cash-strapped ICL folds he would again be available for international selection a year after cutting his ties with New Zealand Cricket.

London, Apr. 8: Manchester United coach-cum-manager Alex Ferguson has admitted that his Euro gamble backfired.

The United boss went ahead with Sunday’s TV clash against Aston Villa, rather than bring it forward 24 hours.

“We showed tiredness because of the gamble I took playing Sunday which was not the best preparation. But we faced a situation and we took the best option hoping a European occasion would bring the adrenalin up,” The Sun quoted Fergie, as saying.

Sydney  - Australia's cycling fraternity was in shock Wednesday at the death of former world champion sprinter Jobie Dajka.

The body of the 27-year-old who won gold in the keirin event at the 2002 track cycling world championships in Denmark was found Tuesday at his Adelaide home.

No information on the cause of death has been released, but police said it was not believed to be suspicious.

Former road cyclist Patrick Jonker said Dajka had been getting his life back on track after being kicked off the team for the 2004 Athens Olympics after lying to a doping inquiry and serving a three-year ban for assaulting a track coach.

London, Apr. 8 : England cricket captain Andrew Strauss has admitted that he is not ideally suited to Twenty20 cricket, and therefore, he agreed with the selectors that there was need for him to stand down and have someone else in charge for the duration of the second ICC World Twenty20 tournament.
