MADRAS, India, Feb 24 (Reuters): An Indian court Thursday cleared the way for Pakistan's first full cricket tour of India in six years when it allowed live telecast of the matches despite a continuing legal battle over TV rights. The Madras High Court, hearing a case involving the national cricket board and India's largest listed media firm, Zee Telefilms Ltd, said in an interim ruling that state TV could broadcast the matches. The tour was in danger of being cancelled if the row had not been resolved because television coverage is essential under International Cricket Council rules.
