Indian batting sensation Yuvraj Singh and Pakistan’s pace hero Shoaib Akhtar seem to be getting along rather well. Within half an hour of reaching the Pakistan High Commission for its reception to cricketers from both sides ahead of the Delhi Test, the pair sneaked out and left the venue in the Indian’s swanky new car. Yuvraj, having promised to give the Rawalpindi Express a tour of the capital, took the wheel and they sped away. Meanwhile, the remaining Pakistani team in suit and tie waited to go through the formal rituals organised by the mission staff. As for the Indian team, they just loved the food.
