Cricket world cup 2010

The International Cricket

Council (ICC) has

commenced preparations

for the 2015 World Cup by

unveiling the next World

Cup logo.

The unveiling of the logo is

as part of a symbolic

handover from the

successful 2011 hosts to

their successors who will

host the next World Cup

after four years. Australia

and New Zealand will

together be hosting the

next World Cup.

Haroon Lorgat, the ICC

chief executive has

described the logo as "a

dynamic logo which

captures the cultural

influences in the host

countries."

Twelve teams may contest

the 2015 World Cup as the

ICC is considering a

compromise between the

14 teams of 2011 and a

tight 10-team model

currently on the table for

the tournament's next

edition.

The ICC's executive council

is meeting in Mumbai on

Monday and on the

agenda is the format for

the next World Cup, to be

hosted by Australia and

New Zealand, following the

rousing success of this

year's edition, which was

won by India.
