Will New Zealand or Australia Host Any Part of the 2011 Cricket World Cup?
Background: Ref: http://www.stuff.co.nz/4778674a1823.html
New Zealand could find itself co-hosting the next cricket World Cup in 2011 with Australia because of the ongoing unrest in Asia according to a report in a Sydney newspaper.
New Zealand and Australia are set to host the World Cup in 2015 but the Daily Telegraph reported today that a meeting of International Cricket Council chief executives in South Africa will discuss putting other countries on standby.
That, according to the paper, could see New Zealand and Australia placed on standby to host the tournament.
India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are scheduled to host the tournament early in 2011 but the terror attacks in Mumbai last week and ongoing unrest in Pakistan has the cricket world on edge.
