Get Set, Go...

Sir Garfield Sobers officially declared the World Cup open yesterday. The opening ceremony was impressive, considering all the hoopla around West Indies not ready for staging this event. The organizers need to be commended for making up for the lack of floodlights in the stadium. Generators were used to provide lighting and it was not too bad. The speeches were brief and pretty much upto the point. No mindless drawling.

So overall, a fine opening to the 2007 World Cup. Let the games begin...
