The final of the World Cup Cricket played at Ahmedabad on Sunday had people of Mysuru glued to their television sets and the streets appeared deserted.
The build-up in the days leading to the final had resulted in the cricket fever gripping the people as a majority of them stayed at home and watched the proceedings on tv.
Though the streets and public places tend to be less crowded on Sundays, it was more so on the day of the big match with a majority of them completing their daily chores including shopping during the first half of the day. Though railway station and the bus stand appeared crowded at noon, the residential areas and market places had thinner crowd.
