Durban, Apr 1 : The Indian Premier League going to be held in South Africa will mainly be a television product for the Indian market and the crowd attendances will be no more than a bonus, according to a former cricket administrator.

Arthur Turner says that hosting of IPL in South Africa is not a coup for the country as the tournament was shifted out of India due to security reasons.

Durban (South Africa), Apr. 1 : Australia's cricketers undertook a fishing trip in the South African coastal city of Durban ahead of their first one-day international against the Proteas here.

Victorian skipper Cameron White was among those on the fishing trip, while some members of the 14-man squad, including national captain Ricky Ponting and West Australian skipper Marcus North, decided to play golf instead.

Durban, Mar. 12 : Australian skipper Ricky Ponting has praised opener for maintaining his equanimity in the second Test against South Africa here, and added that during the match he was looking for signs of an inflated ego, which fortunately never surfaced.

Durban, Mar. 12: South African selectors have dumped Ashwell Prince as captain only a day after announcing that the team''s regular vice-captain would lead the side in the absence of injured skipper Graeme Smith.

Smith will miss next week''s third Test against Australia because of a fractured little finger and Prince, who had been unable to win a place in the side for the first two Tests, had been recalled on Tuesday in a 12-man squad for Cape Town.

Chairman of selectors Mike Procter had said Prince, whose place in the Test side for the home series against Australia had been taken by J P Duminy at No. 5, would return as an opening batsman and skipper.

Durban, Mar. 12 : Australia's new opener Phil Hughes is already being compared to Sir Donald Bradman after scoring two centuries in the Durban Test.

Though he is not the Don, the similarities are there.

According to Fox Sports, Hughes is small in height as was the Don, has shown a hunger for making runs consistently just as the Don, his technique is highly unusual as was the Don's, he comes from the bush just as the Don, and possesses the kind of unflappable temperament that fast bowlers, opposition captains, coaches and media hype can''t bring down just as the Don.

Durban, Mar. 12 : Ricky Ponting is as happy as he has ever been in his long and successful cricket life, and he credits the new kids on the block for it.

"This is as happy as I''ve been in my whole career as an Australian player," Fox Sports quoted Ponting as saying after completing a series triumph against the South Africans in Durban.
