Cricket World Cup Tickets

Cricket World Cup is the premier international championship of one-day cricket in the world. The event is organised by the sport's governing body, the International Cricket Council (ICC) and is contested by all Test-playing nations (currently the only ten teams that are officially allowed to play the longest form of cricket), plus qualifiers.

Since the inaugral championship in 1975, the Cricket World Cup is held around every four years. The 2011 Cricket World Cup is set to be held in the four Asian Test cricket playing countries Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The World Cup will be held during the months of February and March 2011.

The Cricket World Cup was first held in 1975 in England because it was the only nation at the time that had the resources to stage an event of such magnitude.

Cricket World Cup Tickets Continued

The first three tournaments were officially known as the Prudential Cup because the financial services company Prudential plc was the main sponser in each event. Eight teams participated in the first tournament: Australia, England, the West Indies, Pakistan, India, and New Zealand (the six Test nations at the time), with Sri Lanka and a composite team from East Africa. One notable omission was the South African cricket team who were not competing due to the international sports boycott. West Indies won the first Cricket World Cup when they defeated Australia by 17 runs.

In the eight tournaments held so far, five teams have won the Cricket World Cup. Australia, the current champions, is the most successful World Cup team, having won the tournament four times. West Indies won the first two tournaments while India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka have won one each.
