The International Cricket Council (ICC) released the much-awaited ODI World Cup 2023 schedule on Tuesday with defending champion England taking on New Zealand in the tournament opener on October 5 in Ahmedabad.
The 1,32,000-seat capacity Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad will host five games, including the titanic clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan on October 15.
Ten teams will feature in the 46-day tournament which will be held across 10 cities. Along with Ahmedabad, the other host cities include Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi, Dharamsala, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai and Pune.
