Pathetic atmosphere - world T20

[Serani]

It was sold out...... But still cant be excused for the pathetic atmosphere and black cheer leaders. tut tut tut. b55 did you watch the game? Id like to see these empty seats because there certainly were not many.

[b555]

i wasnt talking about capacity serani ... u obviously expect home matches to be sold out :D

[f2000560]

So people against the cheer leaders because they black? Nice. Either way the stadium was full.

Id on't think it was the fact they were balck as much as the fact they were totaly limp throughout the match its almost as if they dragged themselfs to just do something random every four Threee crowd was capacity but then the atmosphere for the first match was almost funeral like not what you expect in a t20 game. The commentary though thankfully shorn of endorsements was just as limp but thankfully sensible. I think its only the first day and it will only get better. The crowds probably need to warm up a bit. :two_thumbs_up: That being said india matches are going to be disaster as its 9 30 in the morning in local time wonder who is going to come for those ?

I'm not against black cheerleaders. Look, I don't go for girls, but there was one cheerleader in particular that was pretty hot.

It's all about the TV audience in India. T20 match in the morning just sounds boring for the local crowd indeed :yawn2:

I actually like the pitches. It will produce close games. Regarding ticket prices, they were selling tickets for $5, which is really really cheap. and free entrance to kids I think. Only thing they going to lose out is game starting at 2.30 am in india, not many ppl will be wanting to be awake until 5.30-6.00 am to watch the games. Organizers have been smart, so far indians games are starting early.

I am not much bothered about india performance t20 world cup.i want india to do well in test and odi which are prime form of international cricket.ICC should leave t20 cricket for club cricket.

[vvvslaxman]

Club cricket will beat international cricket as far as T20 goes. If Latvia plays team USA in a basketball series nobody is gong to watch except may be a few in Latvia. But if Lakers plays Spurs you will have so many watching. T20 has become like American sport with IPL, CL et al. They should leave as it is.

Regarding atmosphere, well you guys don't know Caribbean ppl. I played cricket with them, playing for them. They are party animals. No matter what, even if they lost badly, party was on. Beers, Rum etc was out on the field. LOL Only complain I had against them was their commitment when playing the game.

it is stil too late to start a match at 10:30 or 11:00 pm India time...i dont think may people would watch even Indian games fully till 2 clock midnight or maybe late

[Serani]

Atmosphere was far from pathetic...even in a Bangladesh game

[Serani]

Yeh its just the fact the cheer leaders are not blonde its really getting people down.

[yoda]

I don't like the half empty stands. then again the stands were pretty empty even for one of the IPL semis. I hate the cheerleaders, especially the non local ones in IPL, if at all would much rather prefer the locals used by this tourney. Weather hasn't played spoilsport yet, but the forecasts look shady, hopefully it doesn't interfere much.

[Sachin_Rulez]

Any multi-tournament played in WI will be disastrous. Not sure why ICC chosen WI as the venue for another WC. When was AUS hosted any ICC tournament? Other than WC 91, I don't remember any ICC event played in Aus

:cantstop: You call this atmosphere. It was more like weekend get together of old age people.

[Watson87]

dude how can u hate the cheerleaders, i really liked the way they moved their booty, some of you guys need to be open minded. The female cheerleaders were kinda hot man. By the way there was a male cheerleader, Serani you got some moves boy.
