MELBOURNE, MARCH 31: Melbourne might not get the solo run it expects to host the 2006 Commonwealth Games with Cape Town and New Delhi emerging as possible challenges.Melbourne's only rival to host the games, Wellington, dropped out of the race last month and with bids closing in London on April 9, it was expected there would be no more challengers.Walker has also said Melbourne will draw bigger crowds to the Commonwealth Games than the Sydney 2000 Olympics if it is named host city.``But it is a big prize we are seeking and you cannot take anything for granted,'' he said.Walker, who has lobbied every country in the Commonwealth, will make Melbourne's presentation in London. A decision on who will host the Games will be decided in Fiji on October 10.PTI adds from New Delhi: It is not Melbourne alone that has all infrastructure in place.New Delhi which hosted the Asian Games for the second time, in 1982, has all the facilities ready.And whatever little repair or upgradation work isnecessary is expected to be done well in time for the first-ever Afro-Asian Games to be held here in the year 2001.
