World Cup cricket is coming to India on the fortieth anniversary of the thrilling 1983 victory. The World Cup of Cricket is held in the months of October-November. When the venues are announced, ‘Kochi’ is becoming a sad point of absence. A sad point for cricket lovers in Kerala. Kalur Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, the venue for many international cricket matches notable for record crowd participation and high scores, stands idle. Kerala Cricket Association brought cricket from there as it was the venue of Indian Super League football. Cricket lovers remember with a sense of loss that if cricket had been allowed as a multi-purpose stadium, the World Cup would have been held in Kochi as well.
The Kerala Cricket Association has gone ahead with the steps to build an international stadium exclusively for cricket in Kochi. The information is that its steps are in progress. Kochi could be the venue for the next World Cups. But this time, the hope of the fans to see a live game in their own country will not come true? Former international panel cricket umpire, Dr. K.N. Raghavan. “If the stadium had not been given away only for football, at least one World Cup match would have been held in Kochi. The pro-football attitude of Sachin Tendulkar, who was the owner of the ISL team at that time, also became important. However, reality must be embraced. ISL and cricket were held in Kochi stadium with huge crowd.
Therefore, both cannot be held at the same venue. The way is to understand that and build a new stadium. Whenever international competitions were held in Karivatta, there were many shortcomings. The game was suspended due to rain. Sri Lanka-India match failed due to lack of people. The issue is that common people did not come there to watch the game. If you are in Kochi, people can easily reach you from everywhere. A large number of people will come from Malabar, southern districts and places like Coimbatore. The stadium will be full. So far, all the competitions held in Kochi have been a great financial success,” Raghavan pointed out. Former captain of the Kerala Ranji cricket team Feroze V. Rasheed is of the opinion that if there was still cricket in the Kochi International Stadium, it would surely have been the venue for the World Cup matches. “There is a lot of disappointment that there is no competition.
Kochi should have a good international stadium soon. It is necessary for the future generation” – says Feroz. Famous cricket journalist K.K. Pradeep’s question. KCA had carried out repairs at the Kalur stadium at the cost of crores of rupees. New lights fitted and made more comfortable. Yet he was completely given over to football. Not that I don’t want football. But isn’t football played there 365 days a year? Kochi would definitely have been the venue for World Cup cricket this time if both games could be used – says Pradeep.
The stadium will come, so will the matches: Jayesh George
Jayesh George, president of Kerala Cricket Association, said that an international standard cricket stadium in Kochi will not be delayed. It is a sad thing that Kochi is not in the World Cup competition venues this year. But only if there is a venue, it will happen. Two World Cups will be held in India within the next 5 years. The next Twenty20 World Cup and ODI World Cup will be held in India. By then the proposed international stadium in Kochi will be completed. BCCI Secretary Jai Shah had seen and evaluated the planned stadium construction site in Kochi. Mu
The good support and favorable attitude of the Minister of State is shown in the construction of the cricket stadium. It is hoped that the construction of the stadium will start by January. It is no longer possible to have cricket along with football at the Kalur Stadium. Because the football stadium is being prepared for the ISL season of six months. Cricket matches cannot be played in between. Jayesh said that a stadium only for cricket is the only way.
