        @WSJ @WillMHDavies besides the cricket World Cup doesn't attract thousands of fans from across the world.

        @Dipika2601 I think there are just about enough people in India to fill a 40.000 seater stadium....

        @WillMHDavies you can't expect local fans to fill up the absence of interntl cricket supporters unlike the masses of intnl f'ball fans.

        @Dipika2601 nope - locals were majority. Eg I used was Korea v Russia - very few traveling fans - stadium filled to capacity with locals.

        @WillMHDavies I don't agree with your correlation of such stats with that of levels of passion fans have for the game.

        @WSJ @WillMHDavies Low attendance levels don't mean passion reigns low and for someone having lived in India this should be obvious.
