| | Century-old stadium readies for World Cup Cricket - Caribbean - World - Travel |
 | | If the 2006 World Cup of soccer highlighted the friendliness of the German hosts, tournament organisers in the Caribbean - a region already known for its parties - aim to show they can be efficient too. |
 | | Designed for its Caribbean setting, the stadium has underground tanks to drain thousands of gallons of rainwater during tropical downpours, and the roof will have translucent panels to soften the shade's contrast with the bright sun. |
 | | WORLD CUP CRICKET: The March 11-April 28 event, to be held in the Caribbean, is expected to attract 100,000 visitors to see 16 teams play matches in Jamaica, Barbados, St Lucia, St Kitts, Antigua, Grenada, Trinidad, St. Vincent and Guyana. |
