Raina's Cheesy Pull Shot, Sachin's Sweet Drive, Dhoni's Swashbuckling Super Sixer and Captain Smith's Catch of the Season are only some of the innovative dishes christened after the names of cricketers, which have been included in national carrier Air India's special menu, designed to celebrate the World Cup.

The menu will be served for the duration of the tournament – February 14 till March 29. Designed by the Oberoi Flight Services, the menu includes lunch, dinner and desserts. A beverage being introduced on their flights is the smoothie in a variety of flavours. Indian wines will also find a place on these flights.

At an event held in Delhi on Friday to mark the special menu, Rohit Nandan, CMD, Air India said: "The airline takes pride in its culinary offerings across the network. Now, with the increasing number of international travellers on Air India flights, along with the opening up of new destinations in the recent past, the airline will include more of the Indian cuisine."

Also launched on Friday, was a specially designed menu card for the occasion and cricket-specific nightwear for Business Class passengers.

Air India management has been making several efforts to turn around the airline into profitability. The airline reported a surprise net profit of Rs14.6 crore in December, from a loss of Rs168.7 crore in the previous year.
