On
February 14, 2015 Christchurch is going to become a component of history for
the forthcoming ICC Cricket World Cup 2015. Christchurch is one of the 14
cities that would be hosting the matches. Despite of the fact that, it is the
sports ground from where the opening ceremonial of the world cup 2015 would
start. The Christchurch will surely play an important role in the Cricket World
Cup 2015 by hosting the first match between the home team New Zealand and Sri
Lanka.
Christchurch
is the biggest city in the South Island of New Zealand plus the second largest
in the nation. It is surrounded by the Port Hills along with the Pacific Ocean
and located on the Canterbury Plains with the Southern Alps as a grandiose
backdrop.
It
is an idyllic destination for travellers with an enormous range of outdoor
activities accessible. Christchurch has a lot of places and activities to try
out as such as world class alpine resort, play golf, Bungee jumping, rafting,
mountain biking, hot air balloon, wind surfing and lots of other places and
activities.
Since
the disturbing earthquakes in September 2010 as well as February 2011, the ICC
Cricket 2015 would be the first chief event to be taken place in Christchurch.

Construction
of a new spectator area and grass embankment began in the month of December
2013 and it will be completed previous to the beginning of the 2014/2015
season.
The
Oval redevelopment is an essential project for Christchurch, building a new
home for the game of cricket in Canterbury. The pavilion would also be used by numerous
other sporting codes.
"The
tournament would give the metropolis an opportunity to demonstrate that it is
back in trade after a complicated few years, and give the inhabitants a chance
to be an element of this international sporting event."
