The Age carries a report from the Los Angeles Times saying the World Cup preparations are behind schedule.
Jamaica is not ready for its close-up. As host of the cup's opening ceremony in Trelawny on March 11 and semi-finals in late April, Jamaica is probably the most laggard of the Caribbean venues. None is said to be fully ready for the most logistically challenging and costly cricket tournament ever staged: 67 matches spread over 54 days at 12 venues.
In the Sydney Morning Herald Alex Brown reports Stuart Clark could link up with Shane Warne at Hampshire.
“The chance to play with Warney again would be fantastic," Clark said. "I have really enjoyed the few opportunities I have had to bowl with him in the past, and to get the chance to do that again would be great.”
Andrew Ramsey reports on Clark’s World Cup omission in The Australian.
