Review: Blind Cricket World Cup 2002
Article Date: 30th December 2002
A month ago, we talked to Adam Benjamin, England Blind Cricket Captain about the sport and the forthcoming Blind Cricket World Cup. With the aim of winning the tournament, England were to have a huge task on their hands.
Today, just over 2 weeks since the World Cup ended, England can be happy with their efforts, which although did not end with them holding the World Cup, did mean England got very close.
Reaching the semi-finals, England went out of the tournament to Pakistan, who on the day were the stronger team. However, this was not before beating both them and hosts India in the league stages.
Finishing fourth in the league and being knocked out in the semis by the soon to be crowned world champions Pakistan, was not a bad effort by England and they can come away from Chennai happy with their efforts on the world stage.
Well done guys.
