T20 worldcup starts today amidst very opposite circumstances as compared with the previous three editions. In the previous three editions, the kick-off evening was glittery and extravagant with various performances (non-cricketing) including music, festive displays and firecrackers. This time around there will be no such opening ceremony and the match will take the center stage. It may be because of the terrible financial condition the Srilankan Cricket board finds itself to be after organizing the 50-over world cup. But for us fans, matches matter most and we wouldnot complain about opening ceremonies. Although no clear favourites for the winner's trophy in this format, i feel India, Pakistan and South Africa have more than decent chance to make it to the final four. After that noone can predict.
