“You know that I’m a Roma fan but I’ve always been fond of Sampdoria,” added Ranieri, who famously won the English Premier League with rank outsiders Leicester City in 2016.

Ranieri said that 36-year-old captain Fabio Quagliarel­la, who was Serie A’s top-scorer last season with 26 goals, was the key to a revival. KUWAIT CITY, Oct 17: The 25th Asian Bowling Championsh­ip is due to start this Sunday, October 20 with the participat­ion of 28 countries.

Intense preparatio­ns by the organizing committees are ongoing in order to ensure the best presentati­on of the event on both technical and organizati­onal levels.

The opening ceremony of the championsh­ip will take place at Crowne Plaza Hotel in Farwaniya. It will be attended by the Minister of Informatio­n and State Minister for Youth Affairs Mohammad Al-Jabri on behalf of the main sponsor of the event His Highness the Prime Minister Sheikh Jaber Al-Mubarak AlHamad Al-Sabah.

A board member of Kuwait Bowling Club and the manager of the national bowling teams for both men and women Nader AlMansour said the bowling club will not spare any effort in giving the best presentati­on of the championsh­ip.

He affirmed that preparatio­ns have been underway since the time Kuwait was handed over the responsibi­lity of hosting the championsh­ip.

Al-Mansour acknowledg­ed that the 25th Asian Bowling Championsh­ip is a serious test for the bowling club given that it is expected to host other internatio­nal championsh­ips in 2020 and 2021 – the Individual­s Bowling World Cup for Men and Women, and the Teams Bowling World Cup for Men and Women respective­ly.

He said he hopes the efforts rendered by Kuwait in terms of bridging gaps among the GCC members will bear fruits, given that the GCC Bowling Championsh­ip was suspended two years ago due to the rift that happened within the GCC house.

In addition, Al-Mansour affirmed that Kuwait Bowling Club has set a long-term plan to equip Kuwaiti women with necessary bowling skills, revealing that several female players of ages between 13 and 22 have been chosen to represent Kuwait in in this championsh­ip which is due to start this Sunday.
