Due to Navratri, the India-Pakistan World Cup 2023 game will be rescheduled. The match is expect to take place on October 15, which coincides with the start of Navratri.
The much-anticipated mega-match between India and Pakistan is likely to be reschedule for theIndia-Pakistan World Cup, which begins on October 5. Notably, the arch-rivals are slate to meet on October 15. Which is also the start of Navratri, a festival celebrated with widespread participation throughout Gujarat. As a result, the security forces have already informed the BCCI and ICC of a probable date change.
Meanwhile, a date change will be a nightmare for thousands of fans who have already book travel and lodging for that time period. As a result, the authorities will have to tread carefully in order to avoid a significant backlash.

A top BCCI official confirm the latest development and add a decision will be made shortly.
“We are considering our options and will make a decision soon. ” “We’ve been told by security agencies that a high-profile game like India vs. Pakistan, for which thousands of traveling fans are expect to arrive in Ahmedabad, should be avoid because they will be stretche due to Navratri. ” Said a BCCI official who did not want to be identified.
However, the board is unlikely to modify the venue of the match. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had already expressed worries about facing India in Ahmedabad and would send a team to evaluate the venue in August or early September. Following that, they will most likely decide whether or not to participate. However, it is commonly assume that they will not raise any complaints after the Asia Cup situation has been resolved.
BCCI president Roger Binny, on the other hand, will shortly visit Narendra Modi Stadium to evaluate the facility. Aside from that, the former cricketer will be in charge of the development of Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium.
