The high-octane clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan in the upcoming ODI World Cup 2023 will be held in Ahmedabad on October 14. Earlier, it was originally scheduled on October 15.
There is much hype around the match and fans across the globe are eagerly waiting for it.
Pakistan will also take on Sri Lanka on October 10 instead of October 12 in Hyderabad. The development will facilitate a three-day gap before the India game.
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has reportedly agreed with the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on proposed change of dates of two of their games.
As per sources, the high voltage match between India and Pakistan at the Narendra Modi Stadium had to be rescheduled due to issues regarding the deployment of security on the first day of Navratri festival in Ahmedabad.
ICC will soon release an updated schedule of the forthcoming ODI World Cup 2023. A few other games involving other teams in the mega event would also be rescheduled.
Meanwhile, a high-level panel will meet on Thursday to decide on Pakistan’s participation in the upcoming mega event to be played in India.
