World Cup organizers say they will relocate matches in the West Indies if hurricanes damage any cricket stadiums beyond repair in time.

Hurricane season had started in the Caribbean and the organizers' contingency plan was to move into unused venues.

Only four of the 12 venues would be used at any time during the tournament, "so if the worst came to the worst we can relocate a package of matches to one of the venues that would not have been used originally," World Cup communications director Marvia Roach said on Tuesday.

Also, all stadium construction was virtually on schedule, she added at a venue summit attended by more than 150 international and regional officials.

"The red flag that was up at Sabina Park (in Jamaica) where there was a cement shortage, has been resolved," Roach said.

Sabina Park, scheduled for the opening match in March, was only a week behind schedule, she added. That was down from three months as reported in April because of construction problems and a cement shortage.

Roach said workers were putting in 16- and 24-hour shifts on stadiums across the Caribbean "because they are determined that we won't fail, they are determined that the stadiums must be finished."

Organizers hoped the main components of the stadiums were finished by the end of November.

"Once we get to the end of November we will be reviewing everything and then we have two months to insert all the modular or overlay materials, and right now this is definitely on track," Roach said.
