Crossing borders for cricket

Nearly 750 cricket lovers from Pakistan on Sunday crossed over to India through the Wagah border to witness the first Test in Mohali beginning on March 8.

Pakistani fans came in groups starting from 1000 IST onwards, Indian Custom and Immigrations sources said.

Earlier, the Samjhauta Express, which was expected to carry fans from Lahore to Attari, had to be cancelled due to some "technical reasons".

Two special trains between Attari and Chandigarh were also cancelled on Sunday.
