A hat trick occurs in cricket when a bowler dismisses three batsmen with consecutive deliveries. The deliveries may be interrupted by an over bowled by another bowler from the other end of the pitch or the other team's innings, but must be three consecutive deliveries by the individual bowler. Only wickets attributed to the bowler count towards a hat-trick; run outs do not count.

Indian Cricket Team for World Cup 2011

BCCI Releases Indian Cricket Team for World Cup 2011 on 17^th Jan, 2011 at Chenna. The World Cup will be played from February 19 to April 2 in India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, a factor which obviously compelled the selectors to go in for an extra spinner as the pitches in the sub-continent tend to favour the tweakers.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni will be leading a batting line-up that starts with Sehwag and Gambhir and a set of explosive stroke-players such as Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina, Yusuf Pathan and himself. Zaheer Khan, Praveen Kumar, Ashish Nehra and Munaf Patel are the four medium-pacers while both R Ashwin and Piyush Chawla came in as spinners to assist Harbhajan Singh, an allrounder in Yusuf Pathan besides the part-time offerings of Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina and Virender Sehwag.

The squad for World Cup 2011:

MS Dhoni (Captain), V Sehwag (Vice-captain), Sachin Tendulkar, Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina, Yusuf Pathan, Harbhajan Singh, Zaheer Khan, Munaf Patel, Praveen Kumar, Ashish Nehra, R Ashwin, Piyush Chawla.

Play, in this beautiful game
Where the rules and aim
Remain the same
It's the game of love unity

Play, in this beautiful game
Where the rules and aim
Will never change
It's the game of love unity

Verse 1 

Sending out invitations
All over the world
Every race, every class,
Every man, every girl
Whether near, whether far
Come and join in the fun
(Oh na na na)

This is it, one big game that you cannot miss
No matter who you are - everyone’s on the list
This is the game of life and we all are one
(So come along)

Chorus (repeated twice)

Dancehall breakaway (repeated twice)

We run the place
We set the pace
We lead the chase
Everybody participate and…

No time to waste
Lift up the pace and celebrate
It’s our obligation

We fascinate, we captivate
Your mind, your heart, soul and
Rhythm of the nation

We play, we play
We feel the game
Come on, come on
Let me see you gyrate

Verse 2

Bring along all your friends
And tell them join in
Cause this game never ends
Once it begins
We will spread peace and love
For eternity

All your worries and stress
Let them all go
We won't settle for less
Cause we're all MELLO
Bring your heart and your soul and set your mind free

Chorus (repeated twice)

And sound our voice
Cause we are one together
L.O.V.E. and unity,
Forever

Where the rules and aim
Will never change
It's the game of love unity

Cricket World Cup -20037

The ninth edition of ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 was held in the spectacular islands of West Indies from on March 13, 2007 and April 28, 2007. It is the first time the Cricket World Cup has been held in the Caribbean.

ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 Mascot is an orange mongoose called Mello. Mello is neither an object, animal nor person but instead a youthful, friendly, contemporary character with bright eyes, a big smile and an abundance of personality. Mello represents zest for life. He is in his teens - cheeky and curious - and is socially aware. Mello is aware of the growing HIV epidemic around the world and therefore wears a red ribbon to show his support for the ICC/UNAIDS initiative.

This tournament feature 16 teams, i.e. Australia, South Africa, Scotland, Netherlands, Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh, Bermuda, New Zealand, England, Kenya, Canada, Pakistan, West Indies, Zimbabwe, Ireland. The teams are divided into four groups. Within each group, the teams will play each other in a round-robin format. Teams will earn points for wins and half-points for ties. The top two teams from each group, a total of eight, will move forward to the "Super 8" round. The top two teams from each group will play the other six teams that progressed from different groups. Teams will earn points in the same way as the group stage, but will also bring points scored against the other team who qualified from the same group to the "Super 8" stage. The top four teams from the "Super 8" round will advance to the semi-finals, and the winners of the semi-finals will compete in the final.

The official Song of ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 has been titled "THE GAME OF LOVE AND UNITY". The song has been sung by Jamaican-born Shaggy, Barbadian entertainer Rupee and Trinidadian Faye-Ann Lyons.

The final match was played between the finalists of 1996 World Cup, Australia and Sri Lanka at the Kensington Oval, Barbados. Australia wins Cricket World Cup 2007 final by 53 runs.

Revenue wise, Cricket World Cup 2007 West Indies, or officially speaking ICC Cricket World Cup 2007, was not a big hit, as the advent of T20 Cricket made people a bit disinterested in ODIs. Also, due to the poor performance of West Indian team, the local crowd was not much interested in the matches of ICC Cricket World Cup 2007. The weather was also not Cricket friendly. Due to this, some games of Cricket World Cup 2007 West Indies were curtailed.

Many teams, including India lost their captain after the world cup debacle. Rahul Dravid was the Indian captain and he was removed from captaincy and wicketkeeper batsman Mahendra Singh Dhoni was made the Indian captain.Overall, Cricket World Cup 2007 West Indies was not a flop, neither a hit. ICC Cricket World Cup 2007 would be remembered as the first hattrick of any international Cricket team to win 3 World Cups in a row.

• Tournament formats - Round robin and Knockout

Cricket World Cup -2003

Cricket World Cup - 2003
Mascot: Dazzle, the Zibra

The eighth Cricket World Cup 2003 was held in South Africa between 9^th February, 2003 and 23^rd March 2003. The official mascot of the tournament was Dazzle, the Zibra.

Foueteen(14) nations participated in the event with their teams to prove their mettle in the 54 matches held during the event.The teams were divided into two groups: Pool A and Pool B, the pools being compiled according to a seeding system devised by the Executive Board of the International Cricket Council. The seedings are based on an international rankings list calculated according to the results of all limited overs internationals between the end of the last Cricket World Cup in June 1999 until the cutoff date of September 30, 2001.

The Australian cricket team has been winning almost every match over the last four years and came to the 8th World Cup in southern Africa as pre-tournament favourites. At the end of it they went home with the trophy, retaining it without losing a single match to became the first in history to win the World Cup for the third time.

They outplayed every opposition they came up against and in every department of the game too, certainly the deserved winners. No matter the toss was won or lost, no matter batted first or bowled first - whatever they did was to perfection and not left to chance.

Shane Warne was sent back home after failing a drug test. Cricket minnos Kenya enter into Semis

In the final against India, they lost both openers after a good start and could have lost more wickets but skipper Ponting and batsman Damien Martyn first made sure there were no further losses. After playing themselves in, both went on a rampage and belted the Indian bowling to every nook and cranny of the Wanderers to pile up a monstrous 359-2, Ponting ending with 140 and Martyn on 88. Despite a fighting 82 from Virender Sehwag , India could only make 234.

The winning team Australia received $2 000 000 cash prize along with the World cup trophy.

Cricket World Cup - 1999

Steve Wagh with World Cup trophy

The Cricket World Cup 1999 was hosted by England, Ireland, Scotland and Netherlands. This time 12 teams participated which were divided into 2 groups - Group A and Group B. Each team played each other in the league stage. The top three teams from each group qualified for the Super Sixes in which each qualifier from Group A played with each qualifier from Group B. The points earned by teams against each qualifier from their group was also carried forward. The top four teams from the Super Sixes advanced in the semifinals.

The Tournment starts with England and depending champions Sri Lanka on May 14, 1999 at Lord's. And ends with the final match between Australia Vs Pakistan on June 20, 1999.

Desperately needing a win to enter the super sixes, Australia won their last group stage game against the West Indies after they had score of just 12 runs in 10 overs, chasing 110. Similarly needing a win to enter the semi-finals, they won the last super six encounter against South Africa. In the semifinals the situation was die-hard when the match was tied because Lance Klusner, the last man left, was run-out with 1 run needing from 3 balls with only 1 wicket remaining, but given the advantage of winning their super sixes match against them. But whatever it is, the Aussies bid farewell to their captain in an ideal way.

Australia won the cup by beating Pakistan by 8 wickets. It was a one-sided final at the Lord's cricket ground in London. The other two semifinalists were New Zealand and South Africa. Shane Warne was Man of the Match in the final match as well as in the semi-final. Rahul Dravid from India made the maximum runs in the tournament. Lance Klusener, South Africa was crowned as Man of the Tournament. Sourabh Ganguly, India scored the highest, 183 against Sri Lanka at Taunton.

As for India, they were somewhat unfortunate. They entered the super six matches with empty pockets as both the countries against whom they had lost the group matches also qualified for the super sixes. In the super sixes they were ruled out even after securing a comprehensive victory over the then world cup favorites, Pakistan. Rahul Dravid got his name enshrined in the world cup history when he topped the most runs table with 461 runs.

Wills Cricket World Cup - 1996

Sri Lankan captain Arjuna Ranatunga lifts
Wills World Cup - 1996

The 1996 Cricket World Cup, also called the Wills World Cup after its official sponsors, was the sixth edition of the tournament organized by the International Cricket Council (ICC). It was the second World Cup to be hosted by India and Pakistan, and for the first time by Sri Lanka. This mega evwent starts on February 14, 1996 and end with Austrelia Vs Sri Lanka final match on March 17, 1996 at Lahore.

India hosted 17 matches at 17 different venues, while Pakistan hosted 14 matches at 6 venues and Sri Lanka hosted 6 matches at 3 venues.

The Cricket World Cup 1996 was marred by several controversies throughout the event. In Sri Lanka, a bombing by LTTE just before the event, resulted in the death of 90 people. As a consequence, Australia and West Indies refused to send their national teams to play in Sri Lanka for the Cricket World Cup 1996, despite repeated assurances from cricketing authorities. Therefore, the ICC awarded both the matches to Sri Lanka on grounds of forfeit.

Twelve teams participated in this event - Netherlands, Kenya and the United Arab Emirates made their World Cup debuts in this edition of the quadrennial event.

Group A : Sri Lanka, Australia, West Indies, India, Kenya, Zimbabwe.

Group B : Pakistan, New Zealand, South Africa, England, Netherlands, United Arab Emirates

Another controversy happened during the semifinal between India and Sri Lanka. The misbehavior of spectators at Eden Gardens, Kolkata led to match referee Clive Lloyd awarding the match to Sri Lanka. In the final match, tensions between Australia and Sri Lanka heightened after umpire Darrell Hair called spinner Muttiah Muralitharan for suspect bowling action.

The Sri Lankans openning batsmen Sanath Jayasuriya] and Romesh Kaluwitharana take advantage of the fielding restrictions during the first 15 overs of each innings. At a time when 50 or 60 runs in the first 15 overs was considered adequate, Sri Lanka scored 117 runs in those overs against India, 123 against Kenya, 121 against England in the quarter-final and 86 against India in the semi-final. Against Kenya, Sri Lanka made 398 for 5, a new record for the highest team score in a One Day International that stood until April 2006.

Sri Lanka won the first semi-final over India at Eden Gardens, Kolkata in front of a crowd unofficially estimated at 110 000. Chasing Sri Lanka's innings of 251 for 8, India had slumped to 120 for 8 in the 35th over when sections of crowd began to throw fruit and plastic bottles onto the field. The players left the field for 20 minutes in an attempt to quieten the crowd. When the players returned for play, more bottles were thrown onto the field and fires were lit in the stand. Match referee Clive Lloyd awarded the match to Sri Lanka, the first default ever in a Test or One Day International.

In the second semi-final in Mohali, Australia recovered from 15 for 4 to reach 207 for 8 from their 50 overs. The West Indians had reached 165 for 2 in the 42nd over before losing their last 8 wickets for 37 runs in 50 balls.

Sri Lanka won the toss in the final and sent Australia in to bat despite the team batting first having won all five previous World Cup finals. Mark Taylor top scored with 74 in Australia's total of 241 for 7. After Australia had put down no fewer than five catches, Sri Lanka won the match in the 47th over with Aravinda de Silva following his 3 for 42 with an unbeaten 107 to win the Player of the Match award. It was the first time a tournament host or co-host had won the cricket World Cup.

Sachin Tendulkar topped the most runs table with the most number of runs (523) while Anil Kumble with the most number of wickets (15).
