The man behind the scene was lalit modi, whom bcci gave a free hand to sculpt the tournament the way he likes. He did that and brought out some audacious results. Sachin and sanath walking out to open the innings, md kaif running to greet shane warne after the fall of sourav ganguly’s wicket and ricky ponting running down from ‘covers’ to advice ishant on how to get hayden’s wicket! It all happened here and nobody complained. Everybody likes earning a ‘little more’.
