ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 Schedule

Mark your dates and book your seats in advance for this ultimate tournament that is being hosted by India this year. The amended dates were revealed more than two weeks following the initial dates. Previously, the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 Schedule was meant to be announced on the basis of the World Test Championship final, but the buzz vanished as both India and Australia played out a thrilling Test at The Oval. 

It was also claimed that the change in schedule was caused by Pakistan’s desire to shift two of their matches, one opposite Australia in Bengaluru on the 20th of October and another against Afghanistan in Chennai just a few days later. After BCCI announced the changed final dates, it created a lot of buzz. Here you can go through the changed schedule and all the fixtures of ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 Schedule.
