The svelte cricket loving Mandira Bedi sizzled the telly screen with her noodle straps in MAX's Extraaa Innings last World Cup 2003. Now, once again the hep sardarni is gearing up her act for the upcoming Champions' Trophy commencing next week. "I love cricket and its a great feeling to be back. In fact, when I look back on my career the game has given me a new lease of life. Before I became a cricket commentator, I had a typical housewife image, because of the strong roles I essayed as Shanti and later as Mandira in Star's Kyunki," says Mandira. She further adds, "I think Extraa Innings also helped us revolutionalise cricket watching in the country. The game got more interesting for the fairer sex and now we see a new trend with more female anchors on the sports channels. Earlier on sports broadcasting was a totally male dominated. " Along with Mandira this time the channel has roped in Rohit Roy and Shonali Nagrani to add the extra glitz and glamour. When queried on whether she has any problems with sharing the limelight with Shonali she says, " I really have no issues with her as she plays the roving reporter. And I believe everybody is glamorous in their own way. This time too viewers will get to see Mandy dressed in beautiful chiffon sarees with sexy blouses. "I have this things for sarees which I just cannot get away and besides I feel that I look best in this eternal Indian outfit. However, this time I have decided not to pay too much attention to my wardrobe. Though, I have a designer to handle my clothes, I rather pay more attention to hosting the show," she chirps.
