The 2011 World Cup will go ahead even if it means playing all matches in India, says IS Bindra, principal advisor to International Cricket Council Inderjit Singh Bindra, principal advisor to the International Cricket Council (ICC), has said the 2011 World Cup will go ahead even if it means all of the matches being played in India.
"We won't jump to that conclusion, but if the situation is bad, India is big enough to stage the competition," he told a London newspaper yesterday.
"The World Cup has 59 matches spread over eight franchises. The next World Cup has 49 matches."
Bindra also said he was "100 per cent certain" the IPL would go ahead as planned, despite the reservations of some players".
(One of them is former England captain Kevin Pietersen, who told a London tabloid: "If I don't think its right then I'll not be going").
