The Cricket World Cup schedule for October was announced by the ICC. The ICC shared the schedule with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and all the participating nations in the tournament.
If Pakistan decides to participate, they are expected to play matches at three different stadiums in India. The matches will be held at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore, and Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
The schedule has been sent to the BCCI and participating nations for feedback. Media reports suggest that the World Cup will commence on October 5, with the final match scheduled for November 19 at the Narendra Modi Stadium. The opening match will feature defending champions England against New Zealand.
The much-anticipated match between Pakistan and India is likely to be held on October 15 in Ahmedabad. Pakistan is expected to play against two qualifier teams in Ahmedabad, while India will compete in Hyderabad.
In Bangalore, Pakistan is likely to face Australia and New Zealand, while matches against Afghanistan and South Africa are expected to take place in Chennai. The team will also play against Bangladesh and England in Kolkata.
Each team will play nine league matches in the tournament. The ICC’s official schedule is expected to be released later this week, according to reports.
