It’s always an excellent day out for foodie families because the event brings together an ensemble of local producers who use coconut, in its many guises, to create amazing food ready for sampling, often unavailable in supermarkets. The Caymanian staple of fried �ish and frit- ters was a welcome sight for visitors upon entrance to the Pedro St James grounds, fried in coconut oil to impart a lovely aroma and �lavour to the dish.

For a group of players who nearly boycotted the event over a contractual dispute with their board, Darren Sammy and his troops have waltzed into the Kolkata final displaying all the Caribbean flair that has earned them global admiration. If Twenty20 cricket is essentially about power-hitting, no team does it better and more unabashedly than the West Indies. England have first-hand knowledge of that destructive potency, having been blown away by Chris Gayle’s 47-ball century in a Super 10 shellacking in Mumbai a fortnight ago. Revenge may be regarded as a dish best served cold but Eoin Morgan’s men would probably like nothing more than to exact it in the heat of a World Cup final.
