The Fantasy Cricket competition for World Cup 2011 has been created and is ready for the entry of your team. We bring it to you in association with Aurum Press who are kindly providing some prizes for this competition.
Cricket Web’s Peter Michael Blackburn takes a look at the selection questions ahead of the World Cup that are arising from the Australia v England one day series.
World Cup
England, 1975
In the first edition of the ICC cricket world cup, the ‘Black Cat’ and his men were unstoppable. In fact, it was Clive Lloyd, whose counter-attacking 102 off 85 balls set West Indies on the way in the final to 291 in 60 overs. A young Viv Richards scored three run-outs to derail the Australian retort and the West Indies won by seventeen runs to win the first World Cup.
The World Cup squads have all now been confirmed for the tournament which starts on 19th February.
Once every four years, the cricket world gathers together and the fifty-over game takes centre stage. Yes people, it is time for the Cricket World Cup, coming to you from Asia.
