* Narvekar remanded to one day police custody

Former Deputy Chief Minister of Goa and the president of the Goa Cricket Association Dayanand Narvekar was on Tuesday remanded to one day police custody for his alleged involvement in the ticket scam. The scam broke out after the fifth one-day international match between India and Australia at Panaji on April 6.

Navrekar who has been charged under section 420, 468, 471 and 120 (b) of the IPC was remanded to a day's custody by the Margao First Class Judicial Magistrate, pending the final disposal of the remand application.

Narvekar, who was arrested on Monday, was admitted to a city hospital after he complained of chest pain in the night and could not be interrogated as doctors attending on him said he was not fit to be interrogated in custody, Deputy Inspector General of Police, Goa, Karnal Singh told reporters in Panaji.

* BCCI's fixtures committee to meet on June 8

The BCCI tour programme and fixture committee would meet in Mumbai on June 8. The BCCI's executive secretary Sharad Diwadkar told PTI on Tuesday that the main agenda would be to finalise the venues and dates of matches during India's forthcoming tour of South Africa involving three Test matches and a triangular series from September 28 to November 28. Kenya is the third team in the triangular series.

"The selectors would then meet in Mumbai on June 13 to pick the one-day team for the triangular series involving India, Zimbabwe and West Indies in Zimbabwe from June 23 to July 7," Diwadkar added.

The Indians will also visit Sri Lanka to play three Test matches and a triangular series with New Zealand being the third team from July 15 to September 3.

* Revised timings for India - Zimbabwe Tests

The International Cricket Council on Wednesday announced a change in the timings for the forthcoming Test matches between India and Zimbabwe. In a press release, the ICC made it clear that there would be a break from tradition in the format of the day's play.

Firstly, play will start at 9.30am local time (1300 IST, 0730 GMT) as opposed to the originally announced 10.00am. The session timings are as follows: First session - 09.30 to 12.00, Lunch - 12.00 to 12.40, Second session - 12.40 to 14.40, Tea - 14.40 - 15.00, Final session - 15.00 to 16.30.

This also means of course that the playing hours are split into sessions of two and a half hours, two hours and one and a half hours. Traditionally, the day is split into three sessions of two hours each. It is believed that these changes have been made in view of the failing light later in the day at Zimbabwe.
