The 1983 ICC Cricket World Cup (also known as Prudential World Cup) was the third edition of the ICC Cricket World Cup tournament. It was held from 9 June to 25 June 1983 in England and was won by India. Eight countries participated in the event. The preliminary matches were played in two groups of four teams each, and each country played the others in its group twice. The top two teams in each group qualified for the semi-finals. The matches consisted of 60 overs per team and were played in traditional white clothing and with red balls. They were all played during the day. The 1983 World Cup was full of dramatic cricket right from the start. Teams like India and Zimbabwe who were not playing well at those times scored upset victories over the West Indies and Australia respectively. England, Pakistan, India and tournament favorites West Indies qualified for the semifinals.

Old Trafford, Manchester
In the first semi-final, at Old Trafford on 22 June, England won the toss and batted first. The English batsmen mistimed many balls and used the bat's edge frequently, as the restrictive Indian bowling led England to score 213 (all out, 60 overs). Graeme Fowler (33 from 59 balls, 3 fours)
top scored, and Kapil Dev took 3 for 35 in eleven overs, with Mohinder Amarnath and Roger Binny taking two wickets each. In reply, Yashpal Sharma (61 from 115 balls, 3 fours, 2 sixes) and Sandeep Patil (51 from 32 balls, 8 fours) made half-centuries, as India reached their target in 54.4 overs, winning by 6 wickets in a classic victory over the previous tournament's runner-ups. Mohinder Amarnath (46 from 92 balls, 4 fours, 1 six) picked up the man-of-the-match award for his all round performance, which saw him add 46 runs to his earlier bowling success (2/27 in 12 overs).

The second semi-final, between Pakistan and the West Indies, was staged at The Oval on the same day. West Indies won the toss and inserted Pakistan, whom they restricted to just 184 (8 wickets, 60 overs). Mohsin Khan (70 from 176 balls, 1 four) fought his way past 50 against the superb West Indies Bowling (he was the only Pakistani batsman to reach 50). Malcolm Marshall (3-28) and Andy Roberts (2-25) starred with the ball. The West Indies innings was based around a superb innings by Viv Richards (80 from 96 balls, 11 fours, 1 six), who took the man-of-the-match award, and an unbeaten half-century by Larry Gomes (50 from 100 balls, 3 fours) as the defending champions reached their target for the loss of just two wickets.

140 (52 overs)

Lord's, London
In the final, India lost the toss and were asked to bat first against a West Indies team that arguably boasted the world's best bowling attack[citation needed]. Only Kris Srikkanth (38 from 57 balls) and Mohinder Amarnath (26 from 80 balls) put up any significant resistance as Roberts, Marshall, Joel Garner and Michael Holding ripped through the Indian batsmen, ably supported by Gomes. Surprising resistance by the tail allowed India to compile 183 (all out, 54.4 overs). Only three sixes were hit in the Indian innings, one from SriKkanth, one from [Sandeep Patil] (27 from 29 balls), and one from Madan Lal (17 from 27 balls). However, the Indian bowling exploited the weather and pitch conditions perfectly to bowl out the best batting lineup of the era for 140 from 52 overs in return, winning by 43 runs and completing one of the most stunning upsets in cricket history, defeating the previously invincible West Indies. Amarnath and Madan Lal (3-31) each took three wickets, and one memorable moment was the sight of Kapil Dev running a great distance (about 18-20 yards) to take a catch to dismiss Richards, the West Indies top scorer with 33 from 28 balls. Amarnath was the most economical bowler, conceding just 12 runs from his seven overs while taking 3 wickets, and was once again awarded the Man of the Match award for his all-round performance. [4] There was no 'Man of the Series' awarded in 1983.

The joy of watching cricket in the new environment of the Wankhede Stadium
Tags: Wankhede Stadium, MI, DC, IPL, Brabourne Stadium, Andrew Symonds, Ishant Sharma, Munaf Patel, Manpreet Gony, Madan Mohan, By Madan Mohan
One reason I never visited stadiums to watch cricket in my school and college days was that all international fixtures at Mumbai were played at the Wankhede Stadium. The stadium may enjoy a fabulous location (though not better than the Brabourne next door), but I didnt and dont really fancy rickety wooden benches. As such, cricket grounds in India generally looked uncomfortable, untidy and uninviting at that time.
When I finally did watch a cricket match at the stadium (an IPL fixture) it was at the Brabourne Stadium. It was quite a pleasant and smooth experience despite the near-stampede like situation at the exit. Most surprisingly, the view from my seat was very good, contrary to what all I had heard and read about watching cricket matches at stadiums.
I was a bit disappointed that with the unveiling of the new Wankhede, Brabourne would once go off the radar of international and IPL fixtures. But the photographs and television images of the new stadium looked great. So, when a friend proposed that we watch the Mumbai Indians vs Deccan Chargers match on Saturday, I was up for it.
So, how does it score with this writer? As I said earlier, its a great location with terrific ambience. Marine Drive is just across the road from the stadium should you want to hang out and take in the sea breeze after the match - though boarding the last suburban train is likely be your top priority! There are plenty of fancy and not-so-fancy joints in the vicinity for a quick bite as well. Its not quite as accessible as Brabourne, but it has more entry points and the crowd gets dispersed quickly.
As of now, infrastructure within the stadium appears to be top class. The view is superb and better than Brabourne. I was only three rows away from the square boundary ropes and got a more twodimensional view, but the view from about ten rows higher is excellent.
For those of you who have never been to cricket grounds, a little bit on the differences between watching it on TV and in the stadium. You dont wonder that Ravi Shastri flogs the expression tracer bullet to death because thats what a delivery bowled at express pace or a ball dispatched a long way by a mighty heave looks like. You get a much better understanding of just how much (or how little, to be precise) reaction time a batsman gets when you see it in the flesh and blood. It is much more evident live that Ishant Sharma has perceptibly more pace and carry than Munaf Patel or Manpreet Gony (whether that counts for anything is your call). Big sixes definitely look a lot more breathtaking live than on TV and I was lucky to watch Keiron Pollard hit one way over the roof and out of the park.
But let me also take this opportunity to crush a myth about hearing the thunderous sound of ball hitting the bat that you apparently cannot experience on TV. In actual fact, you do not hear anything in the stadium, barring a feeble click because of all the decibel level generated by boisterous spectators. And since you cant ask 30,000 people to shut up, your best bet is to choose a match with scant attendance to experience this possibly a Test match! All in all, I hope the long overdue makeover of our stadiums that BCCI carried out for the World Cup will make the live experience more inviting for spectators. I am certainly up for going to this place again, though preferably for an ODI or Test match, ha!
And, what of the cricket? Mumbai Indians may be forgiven for thinking they are home and dry already, but if they lose momentum the way they did on Saturday, they may be left high and dry at the business end of the tournament. Its baffling that such a long batting line up could not overcome 136.
The effectiveness and utility of Andrew Symonds is now a question mark. He was a seriously explosive limited-overs player in his heyday, but now appears listless. Granted, most batsmen from both line-ups looked listless on this pitch, but Symonds plodding tenure left too much on Pollards plate. As such, whether Pollard could be played at least one place higher in the order is worth considering.
Irrespective of their early qualification, Mumbai Indians are not without their share of worries and resting on their laurels could be the surest way to let yet another IPL title slip away. After the second lacklustre performance of the same week, they need to pull up their socks.

The 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup was the tenth Cricket World Cup. It was played in India, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh. It was Bangladesh's first time co-hosting a World Cup. The World Cup was also due to be co-hosted by Pakistan, but in the wake of the 2009 attack on the Sri Lanka national cricket team in Lahore, the International Cricket Council (ICC) decided to remove Pakistan from the hosting countries.[1] The headquarters of the organising committee were originally situated in Lahore, but have now been shifted to Mumbai.[2] Pakistan was supposed to hold 14 matches, including one semi-final.[3] Eight of Pakistan's matches (including the semi-final) were awarded to India, four to Sri Lanka and two to Bangladesh.[4] All matches in the World Cup were accorded One Day International status, with all matches being played over 50 overs. Fourteen national cricket teams competed in the tournament, including ten full members and four associate members.[5] The World Cup took place between 19 February and 2 April 2011, with the first match played on 19 February 2011 with co-hosts India and Bangladesh facing off at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka.[6] The opening ceremony was held on 17 February 2011 at Bangabandhu National Stadium, Dhaka, two days before the start of the tournament,[7] with the final on 2 April 2011 between India and Sri Lanka at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. India won the tournament defeating Sri Lanka by 6 wickets in the final in Mumbai. India became the first nation to win a World Cup final on home soil.[8] India's Yuvraj Singh was declared the man of the tournament.

[edit] Host selection

[edit] Bids
The ICC originally announced its decision as to which countries would host the 2011 World Cup on 30 April 2006. Australia and New Zealand also bid for the tournament, and a successful Australasian bid for the 2011 World Cup would have seen a 5050 split in games, with the final still up for negotiation. The TransTasman bid, Beyond Boundaries, was the only bid for 2011 delivered to ICC headquarters in Dubai ahead of the 1 March deadline. Considerable merits of the Australasian bid were the superior venues and infrastructure and the total support of both the New Zealand and Australian governments on tax and customs issues during the tournament, according to Cricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland.[9] The New Zealand government had also given assurance that Zimbabwe would be allowed to compete in the tournament, following political discussions in the country over whether their cricket team should be allowed to tour Zimbabwe in 2005. ICC President Ehsan Mani said the extra time taken by the Asian block to hand over its bid compliance book had harmed the four-nation bid. However, when the time came to vote, Asia won the hosting rights by seven votes to three.[9] The Pakistan Cricket Board has revealed that it was the vote of the West Indies Cricket Board that swung the matter, as the Asian bid had the support of the four bidding countries along with South Africa and Zimbabwe.[10] It was reported in Pakistani newspaper Dawn that the Asian countries promised to hold fund-raising events for West Indian cricket during the 2007 World Cup, which may have influenced the vote.[11] However, chairman of the Monitoring Committee of the Asian bid, I. S. Bindra, said it was their promise of extra profits in the region of US$400 million that swung the vote,[12] that there "was no quid pro quo for their support",[13] and that playing the West Indies had "nothing to do with the World Cup bid".[13] The ICC prefers to rotate World venues between major cricket playing nations. The World Cups have been hosted by England (three times: 1975, 1979, 1983), India/Pakistan (1987), Australia/New Zealand (1992), India/Pakistan/Sri Lanka (1996), England/Netherlands (1999), South Africa/Zimbabwe/Kenya) (2003) and West Indies (2007). For the 2011 World Cup Australia/New Zealand were a strong contender ahead of India/Pakistan/Sri Lanka/Bangladesh because they had not hosted a World Cup since 1992. In the final voting India won because they argued that since they were a bigger group of countries they should be assigned a World Cup more frequently. Australia/New Zealand were awarded the 2015 World Cup.
[edit] Format
Late in 2007, the four host nations agreed upon a revised format for the 2011 World Cup identical to the 1996 World Cup, the only change being the number of teams: it was 12 in 1996 and 14 in 2011. The first round of the tournament will be a round-robin in which the 14 teams are divided into two groups of 7 teams each. The 7 teams play each other once with the top 4 from each group qualifying for the quarter-finals.[14] The format ensures that each team gets to play a minimum of 6 matches even if they are ruled out of the tournament due to early defeats.hi!
[edit] Qualification
Main articles: ICC World Cricket League 2007-09 and 2009 ICC World Cup Qualifier As per ICC regulations, all 10 full members automatically qualify for the World Cup, including Zimbabwe who have given up their Test playing status until the standard of their team improves.[15]
The ICC also organised a qualifying tournament in South Africa to determine which Associate teams would participate in 2011 event. Ireland, who had been the best performing Associate nation since the last World Cup, won the tournament, beating Canada in the final. The Netherlands and Kenya also qualified by virtue of finishing third and fourth respectively.[16] The following 14 teams qualified for the final tournament. Group A

[edit] Pakistan loses co-host status
In April 2009 the ICC announced that Pakistan had lost its right to co-host the 2011 World Cup due to ongoing concerns about the "uncertain security situation" prevailing in the country, especially in the aftermath of the 2009 attack on the Sri Lanka national cricket team in Lahore.[17]
[18]
It is estimated that the PCB will lose $10.5 million due to the tournament being taken away from them.[19] This figure only includes the match-fee of $750,000 per match guaranteed by the ICC. The overall loss to the PCB and the Pakistani economy is expected to be much greater. On 9 April 2009, PCB chairman Ijaz Butt revealed that they had issued a legal notice to oppose ICC's decision.[20] However, the ICC claims that PCB is still a co-host and they have only shifted the matches out of Pakistan.[21] Pakistan had proposed that South Asia host the 2015 World Cup and Australia/New Zealand host 2011, however this option did not find favour with their co-hosts and hence didn't materialise.[22]
[edit] Allocation of matches

On 11 April 2005, Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Shaharyar Khan announced an agreement about the allocation of games.[23] The original plan involved India hosting the final, while Pakistan and Sri Lanka would host the semi-finals.[24] and the opening ceremony will take place in Bangladesh.[25] After being stripped of its co-host status, Pakistan made the bid to host its home games in the cities of UAE as a neutral home venue. This is a result of Pakistan playing matches in the preceding months in Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah. The pitches in these stadiums have also been developed to suit the Pakistani players. However, on 28 April 2009, the ICC announced the re-allocation of matches originally intended to be played in Pakistan. As a result, India hosted 29 matches across eight venues including the final and one semi-final; Sri Lanka hosted 12 in three venues, including one semi-final; while Bangladesh staged eight at two grounds as well as the opening ceremony on 17 February 2011.[26]
On 1 June 2010, the first phase of tickets for the 2011 World Cup in India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh were put on sale following a meeting of the tournament's Central Organising Committee in Mumbai. The tickets were priced affordably, with the cheapest costing 20 US cents in Sri Lanka, the committee said.[27] In January 2011, the ICC declared the Eden Gardens ground in Kolkata, India to be unfit and unlikely to be complete by 27 February when it was scheduled to host a match between India and England. As a result, the match was moved to Bangalore.[28]
[edit] Media and promotion

Problems listening to this file? See media help.
The World Cup has grown as a media event with each tournament. The International Cricket Council had sold the rights for broadcasting of the 2011 Cricket World Cup for around US$ 2 billion to ESPN Star Sports and Star Cricket. At least two billion people from more than 180 countries around the world tuned into the tournament. This was the first time that the ICC Cricket World Cup was broadcast in High Definition format and was covered by at least 27 cameras, including such innovative features as movable slips cameras and new, low 45-degree field cameras. Other technological advances for the tournament included the first time that an ICC event will have the Umpire Decision Review System (UDRS) thus further enhanced the overall presentation of the game. The ICC Cricket World Cup was also be shown across platforms such as online and mobile 3G.[29]
Stumpy, Official Mascot Song and other promotions The official song of the 2011 Cricket World Cup has three versions, in Bengali, Hindi and Sinhala in accordance with the three hosting countries.[30] "De Ghuma Ke" is the Hindi version composed by the trio of ShankarEhsaanLoy.[31] It incorporates an array of Indian rhythms, as well as elements of rock and hip-hop. The Sinhales version, "Sinha Udaane", was adapted by Sri Lankan R&B and hip hop artist Ranidu Lankage and composed by Shehan Galahitiyawa, one of the leading lyricists in the country.[32] Both songs was performed at the opening ceremony of the tournament, which was held in Bangladesh on 17 February 2011.

[edit] Incidents
The West Indies' team bus had rocks thrown at it by Bangladeshi fans on its way back to the team hotel after their win over Bangladesh in Dhaka on 4 March. It was later claimed that the rock-throwers had confused the Windies' bus with the Bangladesh bus.[44] Bangladeshs elite Rapid Action Battalion arrested 38 people after the attack. However, the Windies were given an apology from the Bangladeshis later on.[45] On 8 March, fans who lined up outside the Vidarbha Cricket Association Ground in Nagpur to buy tickets of the match between India and South Africa were caned by the local police.[46] The political party Shiv Sena threatened to disrupt the match if Pakistan had reached the final in Mumbai.[47] The Umpire Decision Review System (UDRS) came under scrutiny when Indian skipper MS Dhoni complained[48] about inconsistencies about the 2.5m rule in the LBW dismissal appeal for Ian Bell's wicket during the India-England match in the group stage which eventually ended in a tie. The rules were subsequently revised and the umpires were given new guidelines.[49] Subsequently, Sri Lanka captain, Kumar Sangakkara criticised the decision to alter 2.5m rule during an ongoing tournament. In the final between India and Sri Lanka, there was a mix up at the toss. Due to the loud crowd noise, match referee Jeff Crowe could not hear the Sri Lankan captain Kumar Sangakkara's call as the coin was tossed by the Indian captain MS Dhoni and as a result the toss had to be redone a virtually unheard of event, especially on a stage as big as the World Cup final. The next time, the call was heads and Sangakkara won the toss and decided to bat first.[50]
