NORWICH CITY won yet more admirers but lost the match, and the tie, to Internazionale in the Uefa Cup. Dennis Bergkamp's goal put them out 2-0 on aggregate. Leeds kept up their distant chase of Manchester United and a bizarre rumour linked them with Paul Gascoigne, along with every other ambitious club.

The Test and County Cricket Board decided to decrease the number of overs on a Sunday and increase the number of committeemen. The England A team visited the South African township of Alexandra and the minimal crowd showed that the locals have more to worry about than cricket.

Shane Warne haunted New Zealand - 18 wickets in a three-match series - while another bete noire of England, Waqar Younis bowled out Zimbabwe with a career-best 13 for 135.

To the massive indifference of most of the country, but

essential to the inexplicably large crowd at Twickenham, Oxford beat Cambridge 20-8 in the University Match.
