The World Cup established its pre-eminence as the premier Limited-Over cricket event from its inception a quarter of a century ago. Over the gorgeously sunny two weeks in England in June 1975, One-Day International cricket silenced all doubters as it showed itself to be an exciting and meaningful part of the old game.
