Pakistan's blind cricketers are the reigning world champions and were due to be in England playing a four-game series. They were invited by Blind Cricket England and Wales, but the team's visa applications have been rejected. The UK Border Agency says it did not have sufficient evidence to be convinced the players would return to Pakistan once the tour was over. The BBC's correspondent in Islamabad, Aleem Maqbool, tells us what happened, and we talk to Ian Martin from the England and Wales Cricket Board about the repercussions. Audiobooks: who decides which titles make it onto audio? We put listeners' questions to Ali Muirden of the Audio Book Publishers Association and to Chris McKee, managing director of Audible.co.uk.
