COUNTRY'S FIRST FROZEN EGG BABY BORN IN CHENNAI HOSPITAL

Six months after a city-based hospital announced the successful frozen oocyte (egg) fertilisation in a 29-year-old woman, a team of doctors delivered the country's first baby to be born by this method on Wednesday.

The team, headed by obstetrician-gynaecologist Dr Priya Selvaraj, helped deliver a 2.5 kg baby boy.

The woman, who had suffered abortions earlier due to chromosomal disorders, was advised egg replacement for a healthy pregnancy. The doctors then used a donor egg that was frozen since July 2007. In January, the egg was thawed, fertilised and the embryos transferred.

According to doctors, the woman was hypertensive and had to be wheeled in for surgery in the 36th week of pregnancy as the level of amniotic fluids had come down drastically. "We did not want to take any chances and posted her for an elective caesarean. In most artificial reproductive procedures, we opt for the caesarean section due to various reasons," said Dr Priya.

She was assisted by her mother and obstetrician-gynaecologist, Dr Kamala Selvaraj, the first to deliver south India's first test tube baby in August 1990.

While the mother is in the post-operative ward, the baby is in the warmer at the nursery. They would both be shifted to the ward on Thursday, where the mother will be allowed to feed the baby.

AUSTRALIA TO CELEBRATES DON BRADMAN CENTENARY

Australians on Wednesday marked the centenary of their greatest sporting hero, cricketer Don Bradman, by celebrating the fact his unbeaten record is still untouchable 60 years after he quit the sport.

Bradman, who died in 2001 aged 92, played his last match in England in 1948 and retired with a yet-to-be topped Test batting average of 99.94.

Australian media used the occasion to revisit the legend of the 'Boy from Bowral' whose run-scoring feats lifted the hopes of the country during the Depression and inspired generations of sportsmen and women to come.

Newspapers splashed images of the small-statured batsman across their pages while television bulletins re-broadcast rare snippets from interviews with 'The Don', who loathed his celebrity.

In Bradman's boyhood home of Bowral, a small town south of Sydney, scores of children formed a massive 100 on the cricket oval on which he first played, and sang 'Happy Birthday'.

Australian captain Ricky Ponting, who will deliver the Bradman Oration at a dinner to be hosted by Hollywood star Hugh Jackman later on Wednesday, led tributes to the global cricketing hero.

"That Bradman made a century on average every time he batted is remarkable in itself, but to realise his batting average is virtually twice as high as anyone who played Test cricket for any length of time shows why he is one of sport's great stories," Ponting wrote in The Australian.

Ponting said sporting records were made to be broken, with the Beijing Olympics no exception with the breathtaking feats of swimmer Michael Phelps and runner Usain Bolt. But Bradman's was an "unassailable" record, he said.

"Of the 2,519 batsmen who have taken the crease in 131 years of Test cricket, Bradman stands alone and untouched," he said.

"I am no aware of any other sport which has one competitor so far above any other performer."
