Sources in the security establishment  said a conference room has been kept on standby at the PCA clubhouse for both prime ministers to hold discussions.

"Two rooms in the PCA (clubhouse) have also been kept for the two PMs, in case they want to rest," a senior official told IANS.

Gilani arrived here from Islamabad to watch the match at the invitation of Manmohan Singh.
"Both PMs will be together for 7-8 hours of the match. We have no idea how long they hold the meeting for. It will depend on how things unfold," the official said.

A lot of importance is being attached to the event since it is being seen as an ice-breaking one between the political leadership of both countries after the 26/11 Mumbai terror attack by Pakistani terrorists which led to a stalling of official dialogue between the countries.
