Grenada Declares Cricket World Cup Public Holiday On April 10

Source: Grenada Broadcasting Network. As we conjectured in our March 23 posting, Grenada has declared a one-off public holiday on Tuesday April 10, 2007, to coincide with Grenada's hosting of its first match of the current ICC Cricket World Cup.

Analysis: The declaration of a public holiday in Grenada for the Cricket World Cup, follows earlier declarations in Saint Kitts and Nevis (March 22) and Antigua and Barbuda (March 27). Recall that in our earlier posting we also listed the following as possible candidates for one-off ICC Cricket World Cup public holidays: the first match day in Barbados (April 11), or the dates of semi-finals and finals in host countries (Jamaica on April 24, Saint Lucia on April 25, and Barbados on April 28).
