" The talks were

wide-ranging and held in a very warm atmosphere, " Singh's spokesman Sanjaya Baru

said on Sunday.

The two leaders ran

almost half an hour beyond a scheduled two-hour closed-door session after their

delegations met, and emerged smiling for the cameras.

The committee would seek

to accelerate bilateral trade and launch a train service between Munnabao in India's Rajasthan state and Khokrapar in the Pakistani province of Sindh in December, the Press

Trust of India said.

The game was disrupted

after a hail of missiles hit the ground and players from both sides failed to

calm the angry crowds.

India were reeling at 94-6 in reply to Pakistan's 303 for 8.

Water bottles, plastic

glasses and other missiles rained on to the outfield as India headed for a massive

defeat.

Police appealed for calm

over loudhailers and Rapid Action Force anti-riot personnel moved in to restore

order.

The players returned and

play resumed after more than a quarter of an hour.

" Police

arrangements were adequate, " said Sneh Bansal, secretary of Delhi and District Cricket Association.

 

" (It was) not

anything that could have hurt the players. Just a show of disappointment by a

section of the crowd, " he said.

Pakistani President Pervez

Musharraf and Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had watched the early overs

of the game during the morning before holding peace talks in New Delhi.
