The World Cup cricket has kicked off in West Indies. The mega sporting event has attracted immense interest across the globe. Kollywood is no exception.

A host of film personalities and directors, who are avid cricket-fans, have expressed their wish that the Indian cricket team led by Rahul Dravid goes on to win the World Cup.

Says actor Jeeva, “It is a gala time now. Unlimited cricket action will bring joy to cricket lovers.”

“I hope the Indian team which managed to reach the finals in the last edition would go on to win the cup this time. They have enough talent and self confidence. I am hopeful of the Indian team’s victory,” he added.

Echoing the same is Srikanth. The actor says, “It is India's cup this time. The likes of Sachin Tendulkar and Sehwag will score heavily.”

The up and coming Prasanna says, “I have been following the sport since my childhood. My prayers are for India to snatch the World Cup. Though Australia looks the dangerous side to beat, India will manage to get success.”
