I want Asia, the atmosphere is fanstastic. The stadiums in India will have a huge number of die-hard fans.

Anyway I dont want it to end like Calcutta 96.

Australia, just to be fair, but there is the possibility of some of the fans haranguing the Asian/African players and that might avert a few folks.

I agree with you 100% there but I reckon that channel 9 is going to have a new design by then

I'd much prefer Asia, for the simple reason that it'd be easier for TV viewing in England.

The only games that are on at a reasonable time for us in England are Day/Night games in Perth. They start at 5.30am UK time.

yes thats right mainly games in eastern Australia start late at night and in New Zealand its exactly 12 hours infront of england during its summer and therefore people in england may be able to watch the beginning of the game at 10 pm (which would be 10am in New Zealand the following day)
