As per a PTI report, Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah on Thursday (July 27) claimed that three member nations have written to the International Cricket Council (ICC) for a change in their World Cup schedules.
Shah confirmed that the schedule for the marquee might see some changes after three ICC full members expressed their concerns. “Three member nations have written to ICC for a change in their World Cup schedule. We are working on providing free drinking water for spectators during World Cup games,” Shah added further.
The ICC and the BCCI announced the World Cup schedule last month. As per the schedule, arch-rivals India and Pakistan will meet at the world’s largest stadium in Ahmedabad. According to a previous report, the India-Pakistan clash could be advanced by a day to October 14.
“Since October 15 coincides with the opening day of Navratri celebrations, the security agencies have advised that the big game, which will also need heavy deployment of security officials, should be rescheduled,” a BCCI source told the news agency.
BCCI has summoned all the state associations, who are supposed to host the World Cup games, for a meeting in New Delhi on Friday (July 28). The meeting has been called to assess the preparations for the World Cup, revealed a state unit official.
“We anticipate that these sub-committees will work diligently towards achieving our shared goals and objectives. Together, we can make the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 a resounding success and further elevate the standards of infrastructure and development in Indian cricket,” Shah said.
