NEW DELHI: With less than a month to go for the ODI World Cup, teams from around the world are gearing up for the cricketing carnival in India. Hosts India are too busy with their preparations, currently competing in the Asia Cup.

★Former India all-rounder and World Cup-winner Yuvraj Singh on Thursday raised concerns over Team India’s issues of handling pressure in crunch games.

★Responding to Yuvraj, former India opener Virender Sehwag, in his own unique way, said that the Indian team will not be taking pressure on themselves and instead putting it on the opposition.
