The Duchess of Cambridge has shown once again she's a good sport - swinging a cricket bat in India with cricket legends including Sachin Tendulkar.

Kate and William are touring the world's largest democracy, and were at the match to raise awareness for charities that help children brought up in slums.

Sky's Rhiannon Mills says they've also met staff who helped victims of the 2008 terror attacks in Delhi, at the start of a week long trip that promises plenty of contrast.

"They will hang out with some of the wealthiest businessmen and women and Bollywood stars."

"But for them it's about drawing attention to those who continue to live in poverty, and the charities that are helping them out."
