As whole world knows cricket passion starting now and in this initial stage opening ceremony was held in Bangladesh, we getting some related updates from world famous cricket website Cricinfo, in this special post we’re grabbing awesome moments from Cricinfo website latest updates as photographs, they says as:
Those who were not at the Bangabandhu National Stadium will never know just how successful and moving the opening ceremony of the 2011 World Cup was. Those who saw it on TV would have cringed at Sonu Nigam crooning an English inspirational song, Bryan Adams of all people being the top draw, recordings of Shankar-Ehsan-Loy’s unremarkable theme song playing on loop, and the politicians inducing yawns with their speeches.
Those who were here, though, saw, heard and felt the heartbeat of Bangladesh cricket. What happened inside the stadium, sold out by 25,000 people welcoming the World Cup with open arms, was only a minor part of it. There were 25,000 other fans – and this is a conservative estimate, mind you – outside the stadium, with no hope or intention of getting in, partying away to their own rhythm of vuvuzelas, carrying Bangladesh flags about 50 feet in length, celebrating the World Cup.
