Monday nights game between No. 12 Louisville and William & Mary in the KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Ky., pits two teams coming off strong performances in their respective season openers.While trouncing Evansville 78-47 in the season-opener Friday night, the Cardinals got 19 points and 14 rebounds from junior forward Jaylen Johnson and double-digit scoring from sophomore guard Donovan Mitchell (15) and junior center Anas Mahmoud (10) in the win over the Purple Aces (0-1). Louisvilles stifling defense held Evansville to just 28.1 percent shooting, out-rebounding the Aces 52-29.Louisville (1-0) is a heavy favorite coming into Monday nights 7 p.m. tipoff, but coach Rick Pitino isnt take the Tribe (1-0) lightly.The game Monday is really going to be a difficult game, Pitino said. This team opened up with N.C. State last year and they beat them by (in the) opening game.Pitino said he specifically picked out the Cardinals early-season schedule to provide maximum competition for his talented team. William & Mary seems to fit the bill, going 20-11 last season and returning four of its top five players, including 6-foot-7 forward Omar Prewitt.They are a veteran team with a young man from Lexington whos just an outstanding basketball player (Prewitt) and we are going to really play great defense like we did (Friday), the entire night because they are very difficult to guard, Pitino said Friday night. The young man who is coming back -- Omar Prewitt -- is a hell of a basketball player, so we have two days to prepare and pay attention to it and we think we will be ready.The Cardinals will face a confident Tribe after William & Mary beat Division III Bridgewater 96-44 on Saturday afternoon. Prewitt was one of five William & Mary players to score in double figures.Tribe head coach Tony Shaver said, I was encouraged because I thought we played hard. We had a 30-point lead and Daniel Dixon is still diving on the floor. We have got to have that to be a championship caliber team. I was really proud of all the guys effort.In addition to Prewitts 14 points in 19 minutes Saturday, the Tribe also got 17 points from freshman wing Justin Pierce, 11 apiece from senior guard Daniel Dixon and junior guard Connor Burchfield and 10 from sophomore power forward Paul Rowley.The Tribe beat Bridgewater with a school record 22 steals, forcing 25 turnovers. William & Mary converted all those turnovers in 36 points. The Tribe shot 53.6 percent from the field, but they know it wont be as easy at Louisville Monday night.You think Louisville is a little bigger than these guys? Shaver said with a smile after William & Marys win over Bridgewater.William & Mary will face Louisville, Duke and Rhode Island during its nonconference schedule.I dont think its any question, were playing the toughest nonconference schedule weve faced, Shaver said. That schedule, how we handle it is very important. We wont win all those games, but during a stretch like that if you can be successful and have some success it will build confidence and better prepare us for CAA play. But it also can cripple you if youre not playing well. Its a great challenge for our guys.

BCB president Nazmul Hassan has asked the national selectors to consider including some of the top performers from this seasons BPL in Bangladeshs preparatory squad for the New Zealand tour next month. The 22-man squad had been announced on November 4, four days before the BPL re-started.Hassan made special mention of Shahriar Nafees, who last played for Bangladesh in 2013, and the uncapped Mehedi Maruf.His statement is incongruous with his earlier stance of letting the revamped selection committee to work independently, before submitting the team to him.Nafees, who was named among the reserves for the squads camp in Australia in mid-December, has made three fifties so far for Barisal Bulls. Maruf, also an opening batsman, went past Nafees as the top-scorer in this seasons BPL with a 20-ball 33 for Dhaka Dynamites against Chittagong Vikings on Thursday. He now has 203 runs in five matches at an average and strike rate of 50.75 and 156.15 respectively.The biggest achievement for us is that the local players are playing well, Nazmul said in Chittagong on Thursday. Mushfiqur [Rahim] is scoring runs again, Tamim [Iqbal] is doing well too. Among the older players, Shahriar Nafees and Mehedi Maruf are playing well. Having seen this I have already conveyed my message to our coach and the selectors, and I have also spoken to Akram Khan from cricket operations.I have told them that we will send additional players if required. I have spoken to them and asked them to think about how the good performers from the BPL can be included in the squad. Therre may be changes in the squad, or some additional players may go.dddddddddddd Nothing has been confirmed as yet. My understanding is that one or two players may be included. They [team management] havent confirmed anything with me yet.The new selection process includes a separate committee, which includes the Bangladesh head coach Chandika Hathurusingha, team manager and BCB director Khaled Mahmud and cricket operations chairman Akram Khan, on top of the three-member selection panel that has Minhajul Abedin as chief selector and Habibul Bashar and Sajjad Ahmed as the other senior selectors.This isnt the first time Hassan has spoken about selection matters: he had earlier talked about selection choices during the Afghanistan and England series. This means that the president has spoken about his choices three times during or ahead of Bangladeshs international fixtures.In June this year, Faruque Ahmed had resigned as chief selector, hours after the BCB ratified significant changes to the way Bangladesh squads would be chosen.Bangladeshs preparatory squad for New Zealand tour: Tamim Iqbal, Imrul Kayes, Mominul Haque, Mahmudullah, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Sabbir Rahman, Soumya Sarkar, Mosaddek Hossain, Nurul Hasan, Mehedi Hasan, Shuvagata Hom, Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Taijul Islam, Mashrafe Mortaza, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, Shafiul Islam, Subashis Roy, Mohammad Shahid, Ebadat Hossain, Tanveer Haider.
