ICC World Cup 2023: Five of the tournament’s games will be held at Kolkata’s famous Eden Gardens between October 5 and November 19.
Kolkata: On Tuesday, the ICC World Cup schedule was released. After 2011, it is past due for Indian cricket fans to see the international event firsthand. Eden Gardens is also getting involved since the City of Joy needs to organize five crucial World Cup matches.
Eden has received a few Bangladesh and Pakistan matches in addition to the key India vs. South Africa game. Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) in Kolkata is a joyful place to be.
Elder brother of Sourav Ganguly and CAB president Snehasish Ganguly were pleased with the decisions reached by the BCCI and ICC. He praised Jay Shah and the BCCI for the five important games.
Tuesday night, the CAB president declared, “We are content. I sincerely appreciate Jay Shah, the BCCI, and the ICC. The previous four months were spent working. I’ve been putting in work to find good matches. We display all of the designs. The IPL’s best stadium is here with us. There was never any doubt about this. In these kinds of selections, there are many plus and minus factors. Jay Shah pledged to provide me with quality matches. I expressed my gratitude to Mr. Jay Shah and BCCI for their insightful analysis of Eden Gardens.
Additionally, Eden will host Pakistan’s games, which require strong security. Snehasis stated, “We have already hosted India vs. Pakistan in T20Is,” when asked about the security procedures. However, we have two Pakistani matchups. These games are challenging. A World Cup is difficult to plan. Any challenges will be met with our readiness. All of the IPL games featured beautiful crowds.
“I have a lot of faith in my ability to host the matches. There will be special security precautions for Pakistan. Pakistan may have already played in Kolkata, I believe. I’m not familiar with the details. However, Kolkata is their top choice, followed by Chennai and Bengaluru. “I have confidence in Kolkata Police,” the CAB president continued. The match will have a stricter security system than usual. I have faith in the government and Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee
