 Ricky's Camp He wasn't here for the CBI. The media grilling apart, match-fixing was the least of Ricky Ponting's concerns on his visit to India. The Australian cricketer was in Mumbai last week for a coaching camp, to be followed by similar ones in Bangalore and Delhi. "There is very little that Indian youngsters lack," he said, "though there are a few areas like fielding where they need more training." At a party later that evening, Ponting shone with sundry stars such as Dilip Sardesai, Sanjay Manjrekar, Maria Goretti, Suchitra Pillai and an assorted gaggle of models who added zest to an otherwise dull, rainy evening. Not that he minded. Mumbai, he insisted, was "so cool". He'd weathered queries on bookies earlier that day at a press meet, so what are a few showers anyway? -Robin Abreu |
