The Board and Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and International Cricket Council (ICC) have finally released the updated schedule of the ICC Men’s ODI World Cup 2023. There are a total of nine changes made in the updated schedule. Earlier, three ICC members had reached out to BCCI to make the changes. One of the key matches which have been rescheduled is India vs Pakistan match. Earlier, this match was to take place in Ahmedabad on October 15, which was a Sunday. Ahmedabad Police had requested BCCI to make changes in the date as October 15 is also the first day of Hindu festival Navratri, which is celebrated in a grand way in the city.
Due to the security concerns, the India vs Pakistan clash has been pre-poned by just one day. That means, now, the India vs Pakistan clash will take place on October 15, Saturday, at the same venue as before, Narendra Modi stadium in Ahmedabad.
