Sports news in brief from around the world:
* India's unofficial Indian Cricket League (ICL) will stage a Twenty20 tri-series from April 9 to 15 between Indian, Pakistani and combined international teams, organisers said in a statement from Mumbai.
The league, bankrolled by owners of India's largest listed media firm ZeeTelefilms Ltd., was launched last year.
It has drawn mostly retired overseas players due to ban threats from national boards, who back the official Indian Premier League (IPL) due to begin on April 18.
* The Serie A match between Juventus and Parma, which was postponed on Sunday after the death of a Parma fan travelling to the game, will be played on Wednesday April 16 at 1900 GMT, a league statement said.
* AC Milan and Italy right back Massimo Oddo will undergo knee surgery on Wednesday, the club Web site (AC MILAN - Sito Ufficiale - Official Website) said, without specifying how long he would be out.
