The battle lines were drawn over Europe's debt crisis on Wednesday as Greek ministers offered a 10-point plan to redraft the bailout, and their partners said no deal, thanks. The negotiations aren't quite over yet, but the deadline for a Greek default is now just two weeks away. We hear the views of both sides in the negotiations, and with the help of Vicky Pryce, a Greek economist, representing the Centre of Economics and Business Research, Sony Kapoor, of the economic think-tank, Redefine, and the BBC's economics correspondent, Andrew Walker. We look at where a compromise might lie.
Also we look to cricket's biggest money-spinner, the ICC World Cup, just two days before the event launches in Australia and New Zealand. Is the lure of hard cash corrupting the Gentleman's Game?
