Can’t find a ticket for Saturday’s Group-A ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 clash between Sri Lanka and Pakistan in Colombo? No problem! Catch the action on a giant screen, with the papare playing in the background, courtesy of Sri Lanka Police.
Police chief Mahinda Balasuriya told reporters yesterday that giant screens throughout Colombo will telecast the match live at no cost to the public. The screens will be placed at the Galle Face Greens, Parliament Grounds, Nawaloka Ground and P.D. Sirisena Grounds.
Police brass bands, the police chief says, will provide music to add to the atmosphere. He also urged fans without tickets not to swamp the venue, as all tickets have already been sold out. Sri Lanka and Pakistan meet on February 26 at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo for the 10th match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011.
