About
2011 Cricket World Cup
The World Cup is a one-day international tournament that dates back to 1975, when eight teams competed in England. West Indies dominated the first three events, winning the first two and losing surprisingly to India in the final of the third in 1983.
Since those early years the format has expanded and in the last World Cup in 2007, 16 countries played a total of 52 games over 46 days.
Australia have enjoyed a prolific run in recent times, lifting the last three Cups and winning all 22 matches of their 2003 and 2007 campaigns.
The next World Cup will be hosted jointly by Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka in 2011 and will feature 14 nations. The event opens with Bangladesh playing India on February 19 and the final will contested in Mumbai on April 2.
