Google catches World Cup fever, celebrates with new doodle

Mumbai: ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 begins on Saturday, February 14 and Google seems to have caught the World Cup bug. To celebrate the glorious game of cricket, and its indomitable spirit, Google created a special doodle, a day before the tournament is set to begin.

The doodle features an umpire, a bowler, two batsmen, a fielder and a wicket keeper.

The doodle is featured globally on the search engine giant’s homepage.

Co-hosts New Zealand and Australia face Sri Lanka and England respectively on the opening day.

The most anticipated, high-octane game is on Sunday February 15, between arch-rivals India and Pakistan.

However, those who follow the game, here’s a quick look at the schedule of the matches that are scheduled through the tournament.
