Cricket Mania hits town

Children are seen playing cricket at Dimapur, Nagaland on Tuesday, March 29, 2011. India will play against Pakistan in the second semi final of the ICC Cricket World Cup on March 30 at Mohali, Chandigarh. Wednesday’s much-hyped World Cup semifinal match against arch rival Pakistan, has created such a cricket fever in India that it has even been reported, that on social networking site Facebook, more than 100,000 people voted a resounding yes to a poll on whether March 30 should be declared a national holiday in India, while another 40,000 said they were going to bunk work.
