International Cricket Council (ICC) President Sharad Pawar has described the occasion of the opening of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 as an 'historic day'.
He was speaking at an elaborate and colourful opening ceremony in Dhaka, Bangladesh which was witnessed by a packed house of 21,000 at the Bangabandhu Stadium.
"Today is a historic day when the people of Bangladesh join India and Sri Lanka together to host the ICC Cricket World Cup, and make this tournament the most memorable yet," Pawar said.
Tonight we welcome the captains of the world’s top 14 teams to the opening ceremony of the 10th ICC Cricket World Cup. One of these captains before us tonight will stand in the magnificent new Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on 2 April and receive the ICC Cricket World Cup trophy. On behalf of the ICC, I wish you all the very best of luck.
