The cricket World Cup 2007
Verité Sport's cricket booklet was well used during the cricket World Cup.
Over 100,000 copies were distributed in the Caribbean, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, South Africa, Nepal and the UK. As well as English it was published in Urdu, Bengali and Nepalese.
In the Caribbean 75,000 were printed and distributed at the games and festivals. Some were left in hotels where players and journalists were staying.
20,000 were printed in Bangladesh. Bangladesh's progress in the World Cup to the Super 8 stage made the booklet very popular. They were distributed in street sales or at bus stations or on buses and trains.
