		    BENSON AND HEDGES WORLD CUP FINALS:
		    -----------------------------------
     
			  INDIA    vs    PAKISTAN

     I am sure this news will be most welcome for all netters following
     the world cup in Australia.From the meager information i could
     gather INDIA had beaten N.ZEALAND.I am not really sure of the
     precise scores but i believe N.Zealand scored 206 in their quota
     of 50 overs,India managed to reach that target only barely after
     having scored only 100 in their first 35 overs.The indian hero
     from what i have heard was Kapil Dev(60 odd runs).

     To make India's task easier in the finals Pakistan was well on its
     way to the biggest upset of the tournament.When i last heard the news,
     W.INDIES all out 159, Pakistan 142 for 1 with plenty of overs to
     spare so i assume it will be india vs pakistan once again.To refresh
     memories india beat pakistan soundly in the preliminary rounds.

     P.S...  Polling in major metropolitan cities dropped to less than
	     30% in the recent assembly elections as people were glued
	     to their T.V(radios) as a result of india's scintillating
	     performance in the world cup.
