Karachi, Nov 18: PCB Chairman Ijaz Butt has reportedly said that if Team India is not able to tour Pakistan for “Security reasons” early next year, his country’s side might shift the series, including Tests, ODIs and one Twenty20, to India.

He said the PCB had suffered a lot because of the cancellation of a few series in the recent past, after foreign cricket teams, including Australia, England, South Africa, and New Zealand refused to visit the country in the aftermath of suicide blasts and rampant violence killing hundreds of people.

Buenos Aires/Rio de Janeiro - Brazil are in far from their best form, and a divorce is evident between fans in the football- crazy South American country and the low-performance side led by coach Carlos Dunga.

However, the same team won the 2007 Copa America to earn the chance to defend their title at the 2009 Confederations Cup in South Africa.

Brazil have long failed to display the kind of fantasy game that made their football famous and turned "jogo bonito" into a global trademark.

San Francisco  - Jerry Yang, who helped kick start the internet revolution in 1995 as co-founder of web portal Yahoo, is stepping down as the company's chief executive.

The announcement by the ailing internet giant came after months of falling revenue, fierce proxy battles and a series of botched negotiations that scuttled what now seems to have been an exceedingly generous buyout offer from Microsoft.

Yang's alternative plan - an ad alliance with Google - was scuttled last week after strenuous objections from antitrust regulators.

Hong Kong - Two undercover policewomen posed as potential prostitutes to help crack an international sex syndicate that was sending women to work in overseas bars, a Hong Hong court report said Tuesday.

The two officers arranged a meeting with a man called Ho after answering an advertisement in a Chinese-language newspaper offering "quick money overseas by being public relationship officers in Japan, Taiwan and the United Kingdom" between December 2006 and June 2007.

At the meeting the women were told they could earn tens of thousands of dollars a month entertaining and having sex with customers in a bar in Chiba-Ken in Japan.

Bangkok  - A British researcher has arrived in Bangkok to track down nine missing episodes of BBC's legendary Dr Who TV series, the world's longest-running science fiction show that started in 1963, media reports said Tuesday.

"Records show that nine episodes from the 'Dr Who and The Journey to Cathay' series were shipped to Bangkok, and now we're looking for anybody who has any information about it," researcher Damian Finucane told the Bangkok Post.

BBC records show the nine missing DR Who episodes were sent to Thailand in 1967 to be broadcast on Thailand's now defunct Channel 4.
