Question about Cricket World Cup Trophy?

Question

I'm unable to understand something in this article.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cricket_World_Cup_Trophy

Here, See "Status" and read paragraph.

Now question are that:

1- Which is actual Trophy that has kept by ICC. Is that Trophy real made by real Silver and Gild? Why ICC keeps actual Trophy? What's the concept of Actual Trophy and its replica Trophy?

2- Is Actual Trophy's replica (that ICC gives to winning Nation) not real? I mean has it not Silver and Gold? OR What is replica Trophy concept here? or Which trophy is kept by ICC and why?

3- The 2011 WC trophy which has gone to different Countries for unveiling process is real or not?

4- The winning Nation keeps trophy for only four years or for life time? I mean do they give same Trophy to next winning Nation after four years?

Answer 1

for question 1 : the real trophy is indeed made by real silver and gold. the ICC keeps the old trophies, and the new trophy, which was made for the 1999 world cup. another exact version of the trophy is made and given to the winning team, which is the replica. the only difference between replica and real trophy is that on the real trophy, which is with the ICC, it has all the winning teams name on it. the names on the trophy are Australia, WI, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka.

Question 2: the replica is exactly same, it is made of gold and silver too. it just does not have previous winner's names on it. Of course, ICC must always have the original trophy, if not, where else should the original trophy go?

Question 3: the unveiling trophy is the real one.

Question 4: the winning team keeps the trophy for lifetime. the team that wins after that is given another replica. since australia has won four world cups, in 1987, 1999, 2003, 2007, they have four different replicas in their cabinet.
