When Sachin met Ricky and Brian

Posted on 09/22/2006 in DLF Cup

Ben Dorries attempts a look at the lives of Lara, Tendulkar and Ponting in The Courier-Mail.

Three cricketing worlds collided for a few precious moments in exotic Malaysia as modern-day greats Ricky Ponting, Brian Lara and Sachin Tendulkar chewed the fat in a rare get-together. The private lives of the world's three top batsmen – with 30,766 Test runs between them – could not be more different away from their glossy magazine ads and rich endorsement deals.

AAP's Daniel Brettig writes about Ponting's planned team approach in the early overs of today's game against India.

The Kinrara Oval

Posted on 09/11/2006 in DLF Cup

Australia and West Indies will play the opening match of the DLF Cup on September 12 at the Kinrara Oval in Kuala Lampur. The Deccan Herald has a preview of the ground.

A little over three years back, the Oval was not even a figment of anyone's imagination. Rubber plantations abounded in this part of the Malaysian capital, and what is now the Kinrara Oval was also a plantation then
With a capacity between 4,300 and 4,500, the Kinrara Oval boasts of six pitches, apart from four turf practice pitches and three other synthetic tracks, and 21,000 square feet of soil has been imported from Darwin in Australia
