Recommended Posts

So they are playing WI at Ahmedabad. They played India at Ahmedabad.

 

Played Canada, Afghanistan and New Zealand at this ground in the group stage. Have played more games at this venue than any other team in the tournament.

Maybe it is their designated stadium done to cater fans from SA.

 

When hosting world events, this should be the planning where fans of each team can books hotel in advance.It will create pleasant atmosphere for fans and teams.

Soulless stadium, no alcohol or steak etc....

Foreigners can get alcohol in Gujarat. Some paper work but fairly straight forward.

When Gandhiji first reached South Africa some colleague of him welcomed him and condescendingly asked " So Mr Gandhi, what do you think of Western Civilization"?

 

"It would be a great idea" Answered Gandhiji

If all teams are capped at one venue each then who will travel to play in those venues.

You have a point. But to help with travel chose cities which are closer. Mumbai and Modi stadium should be easy travel.

So they can show others that you can win batting first or chasing. You can win with a bad DJ. You can with with a low atmosphere. You can with the stadium name NaMo. You can win on a red soil or a black soil pitch.

My guess is that - if it was a true belter (220-240 pitch), our batters would've run away with it. Our team is meant to dominate on pattas, but is suspect on slower, sticky wickets. SA is solid on all, but can be beaten on a belter. That's my hypothesis and I am sticklng with it :-)!!

You forgot to add ...." If you want me to give you this permit give  me .....X..Rupees 

Add in foreigners hiding in there hotel rooms like lepers drinking the liquor they purchased at Ahmedabad duty free because eventually they got the permit and saw the prices in the liquor store and said you must be fecking joking .

Liquor stores in Gujarat are full of wealthy Indians that have bribed their doctors to give them a certificate saying alcohol is needed for medicinal purposes :wp23:

The city Modi wants the world to come to for the Olympics games .
