    India and Pakistan had earlier hosted the event in 1987 while Sri Lanka joined them in 1996. Australia and New Zealand had staged the World Cup in 1992. The West Indies are to host the World Cup next year.

    As per the schedule of matches mentioned in the joint Asian bid, India will host 22 matches, including the semi-finals, Pakistan 14, Sri Lanka 9 and Bangladesh 6.

    The decison is a joke and injustBy: Anjum Kiani | 18-Apr-2009 Reply | Forward The decsion to take the world cup away from Pakistan and hold it in the other 3 countries doesnot make sense at all. All the 3 countries have the same issue and problems, the same security concerns and internal issues. Just sidelining Pakistan is a unjust and unfair decision. It stinks of anti Pak feeling and international politics. Terrorism is every in every country not even USA and UK can stop it all you can do is to plan for it. W are concerned that the attack on Sri Lnkan team was part of this conspiraacy i hope Indian RAW was not behind it as the eveidence points!!
