AFL NAB CUP NEWS Richmond 1.12.8 (89) defeated Fremantle 5.5.11 (86)
other NEWS The NAB Cup of 2009 has generated a greater amount of interest than previous years. The 2nd game of Round 1 featured a Essendon v Western Bulldogs match at Eithiad Stadium dedicated to the 2009 Victorian Bushfires. The competition also created headlines for a scheduling error that saw the upcoming 2nd round match between Collingwood v Richmond (at Eithiad Stadium) clash with the 2008/09 A-League Soccer Grand Final, to which the Melbourne Victory won the right to host. This match was later transferred to a Thursday Night, and is expected to feature the long awaited return of fallen AFL star Ben Cousins.

CRICKET NEWS SRI LANKAN CRICKET TEAM HIT BY TERRORISTS.
EIGHT members of Sri Lanka's national cricket team have been wounded after gunmen opened fire on their vehicle in eastern Pakistan.
Pakistan Cricket Board security official Nadeem Iqbal said the team members were hurt on Tuesday near the Lahore stadium where they were being driven to play.
A Sri Lankan foreign ministry official said two players - Thilan Samaraweera and Tharanga Paranavitana - were admitted to hospital and three more players and the head coach - Australia's Trevor Bayliss - sustained minor injuries.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. Police chief Habibur Rehman said there were 12 masked gunmen and police battled against the assailants for about 25 minutes.
``They appeared to be well-trained terrorists. They came on rickshaws. They were armed with rockets, hand grenades, Kalashnikovs.''
``Five policemen who were providing protection to the team sacrificed their lives,'' he added.
Sri Lankan team manager Brendon Kruppu confirmed the incident and said batsman Kumar Sangakkara, was among the injured.
Sri Lankan Sports Minister Gamini Lokuge named two injured players as Tharanga Paranavitana and Thilan Samaraweera and said they were taken to hospital in Lahore after the shooting.
Skipper Mahela Jayawardena was slightly wounded in the foot, his father told a local television station after speaking with him by telephone.
The team bus came under fire as the players headed to the Gaddafi stadium for the third day of the second Test against Pakistan.
"We are assessing the situation," Pakistan cricket board chief Ejaz Butt said.
Security concerns have plagued Pakistan for years and some foreign sports teams including from Australia have refused to play in the troubled nation.
