Reader Chander Ramanathan sent us these pictures from Melbourne.

'We [Chander and my wife Kirthi] caught up with Sunil Gavaskar [Images] in Melbourne during the Commonwealth Series. It was a treat to meet the legend. And he was absolutely down-to-earth,' writes Chander.

'We also caught up with Dhoni [Images] and Irfan Pathan [Images] [below]. They were absolutely cool.'

Thank you, Chander, for sending this photograph!
