Stuart Broad says England need to forget about Pakistan bowler Mohammad Amirs past and concentrate on his cricketing abilities. Peja Stojakovic Jersey . Englands series against Pakistan begins on Thursday at Lords, live on Sky Sports 2, and Amir is set to make a high-profile return to the Test scene, at the ground where he became embroiled in a spot-fixing scandal in 2010.The 24-year-old was one of the hottest properties in world cricket at the time and is now playing again after serving his suspension. And his performance in the tour opener against Somerset last week suggested he could be a real threat to England this summer.Broad said: It is a huge story, back for his first Test at Lords since the controversy six years ago, a massive story. But, as a team, it is a dangerous place to get waylaid by that, because we could find ourselves in a lot of trouble.Having seen the way Amir has bowled at Taunton, we need to get in the right frame of mind, because he can do us some damage.Lets start looking at him as a cricketer and a bowler, and how we can negate that. England without Anderson How have England fared without their senior strike bowler I think what will help the team move on is that there is only me, Alastair Cook and Steve Finn who played in that Test. It is a very new team.England will be without Broads regular new-ball partner James Anderson for Lords, meaning Jake Ball or Toby Roland-Jones will be given a debut. Stuart Broad will lead the England bowling attack against Pakistan at Lords this week Broad memorably bowled England to an Ashes win at Trent Bridge when Anderson was absent last year, and again impressed when England were without the Lancashire man in Durban last Christmas but still managed to secure a victory over South Africa.And Broad said: I have played 90-odd Test matches, and I can only think of maybe five or six without Jimmy. Kaushal Silva and Sri Lanka drew with England at Lords last month You are stepping into the unknown, but that can give you a bit extra. Trent Bridge went well, Durban went well. I hope it will go the same here.Broads chief concern is the Lords pitch, which has not tended to offer much help to pace bowlers of late.I think our biggest challenge is going to be this wicket, because you look at all the Middlesex scores and they are all bore draws - 500 plays 500, said the 30-year-old. Mohammad Amir says it is a miracle he will soon be back playing Test cricket at Lords and he wants to make the fans proud I dont think wickets should seam around, I just think they have got to bounce. If you cant get a bloke caught-behind or caught in the slips, it takes out 60 per cent of dismissals.The biggest test as a bowling unit will be trying to do what no other team has done this year, and thats win a game taking 20 wickets at Lords.It proved to be a big challenge when we had Jimmy in the side four weeks ago [for a rain-ruined draw with Sri Lanka], so it will be an even bigger challenge this week.See how England cope without Anderson - and Mohammad Amirs likely return to Test cricket with Pakistan - by watching the first Test at Lords, from 10am, Thursday, Sky Sports 2.

Advancing to the Champions League quarterfinals should be a formality after Lionel Messi scored a penalty and Dani Alves added a late second to secure a commanding 2-0 advantage over City in the round of 16 on Tuesday.GLENDALE, Ariz. - Chewed out by their goalie, in an 0-for-29 power-play slump and losers of three in a row, the Ottawa Senators were in a bad mood when they came to Arizona and they took it out on the erratic Coyotes.Five Ottawa players scored, two on power plays, in the Senators 5-1 victory on Saturday night.Craig Anderson had 31 saves for the Senators, who scored five straight after the Coyotes took an early lead on Mikkel Boedkers goal.Milan Michalek, Clarke MacArthur, Mike Hoffman, Cody Ceci and David Legwand scored for Ottawa. The goals by Michalek and Ceci came on power plays.The Senators Mika Zibanejad had two assists.Much of Ottawas damage came in front of the net, a major point of emphasis of coach Dave Cameron in Fridays practice.Thats how you have to score in this league, Cameron said. And the longer the season goes, the more you have to do that because everything tightens up and it becomes more of a battle. If you dont get into those areas, youll get some chances, but usually not enough to win games.Mike Smith had 28 saves for Arizona.Coach Dave Tippett said Smith doesnt deserve all the blame.Certainly everybody would like to see more saves, he said, but Id like to see more saves but Id like to see more NHL plays made. Theres some stuff that is happening in front of him that is unacceptable. You shouldnt pile on the goalie.It was the first game since Anderson, after Thursdays 5-2 loss at Colorado, said his teammates need to get meaner and tougher.In Colorado, from myself to everybody else on the team, we werent happy with the result that we got and we wanted to do something about it, Anderson said after Saturdays win. The sun came out the next day and we were able to put it behind us. You learn from your misttakes and you move forward. Willie Cauley-Stein Jersey. After going 3 for 5 on the power play in Thursdays 4-1 win over Winnipeg, the Coyotes were 0 for 5 against Ottawa.For the second game in a row, the Coyotes scored early.Boedkers left wrister in front glanced off the crossbar and into the net and Arizona led 1-0 at 4:31 of the opening period.Ottawa came back with two first-period goals. The first came on a power play when Michalek knocked in a loose puck in front of the net at 7:08.The Senators took the lead at 13:09 when MacArthur took a short pass and tapped it into the empty left side of the net.Arizonas Brandon Gormley came tantalizingly close to the tying goal midway through the first period. His slap shot from the blue line glanced off one post, travelled down the goal line to the other post, then bounced away.Moments later, Keith Yandles attempt to clear the puck from in front of the Arizona net was intercepted by Hoffman, who passed to Zibanejad. He sent it back to Hoffman, who scored in front of the net and it was 3-1 at 9:21 of the second.Cody Ceci scored early in the third, then Legwand capped the rout with a goal with seven seconds to go.Notes: Brothers Michael Stone of Arizona and Mark Stone of Ottawa played against each other for the first time in their NHL careers. Another pair of brothers play for the two teams Milan Michalek of Ottawa and brother Zbynek of Arizona, but Zbynek missed his second straight game with an upper body injury. ... Coyotes were without Martin Hanzal, also with an upper-body injury. ... Arizonas Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Ottawas Bobby Ryan were selected to the All-Star game. ... In the past five games, the feast-or-famine Coyotes lost 6-0, won 6-3, lost 6-0, won 4-1 and lost 5-1.
