From MICHELLE McDONALD at Sabina Park
With many changes to how spectators would access the new Sabina Park for the first match in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2007, CaribbeanCricket.com went roving the various access points to get their feedback. The gates opened at 7:30am, giving patrons sufficient time to go through the many checks required for an event of this nature. From all reports, things have gone smoothly.
For those of you who know Jamaica, South Camp Road has been cordoned off at its intersection with Deanery Road by the Jessie Ripoll Primary School to the North, and North Street to the South. Several 'Park & Ride' and 'Park & Walk' locations have been set up, allowing those coming to the matches to have adequate and secure parking.

It was not just a Yardie crowd ... surely supporters from other islands were outnumbered ... BUT ... rhere were contingents of Trinis, Antiguans, Bajans etc as I could see from the colourful attire of folks ...
It was just "cool runnings" Iyah!!
