All Test Playing Nations will battle it out for the Wills Mini World
Cup One Day Internationals in Dhaka, Bangladesh from October 24 to
November 1, this event will be chock-full of interest as all teams
vying for the World Cup in England next year will be in action.
Sharjah will see India and Zimbabwe challenge Sri Lanka for the
Champions Trophy. This event too will be full of action where the
world champions will be wanting to bag another coveted trophy.
It will be action all the way and cricket fans unable to make it to
venues of play will have the action brought to them live on their
televisions by Swarnavahini.
Swarnavahini has always endeavoured to provide sports fans with the
best from wherever the action is taking place. They have obtained the
exclusive live coverage of these two great cricketing events and
cricket fans will be provided with all that is happening on the field
and out of it as well.
When Swarnavahini contacted a spokesman of the Bangladesh High
Commission in Sri Lanka they confirmed that the recent floods will
have no impact whatsoever on the Wills International Mini World Cup,
and he also went on to say that in general Bangladesh does not
experience any rain during the months of October, November and
December. They even went on to say that the Flood Lights were
installed at the grounds yesterday in order to play the first ever
flood lit Cricket Tournament in Bangladesh.
