ROLL BALL! Chandran Sharma of India skates to the ball during a Roll Ball World Cup quarterfinal match against Zambia at Shaheed Sohrawardi Indoor Stadium in
Dhaka, Bangladesh. Bangladesh hosted the championship for the unusual sport, called roll ball, where players on roller skates dribble and pass a basketball-sized ball that
they try to throw into a small soccer-type goal. About 750 players from 40 countries participated. See story on page 7. (AP Photo/A.M. Ahad)
