NEW DELHI: The amended match schedule for the ODI World Cup was issued on Wednesday, and the International Cricket Council (ICC) and Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced that tickets for the ICC Men's World Cup 2023 will go on sale on August 25.
Tickets for all games in the tournament and warm-ups that do not feature India will go on sale first, on August 25.
"Ahead of tickets going on sale, fans will have the opportunity to register their interest via https://www.cricketworldcup.com/register from 15 August. This will enable them to receive ticket news first and help secure their spot at the World Cup, and experience the joy of cricket in one day," the ICC said in a statement explaining the process.
“We are delighted to announce that fans can register to receive information and updates on official tickets for the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023. The schedule, after some amendments, has now been finalized and fans can now look forward to buying tickets and watching some high-quality cricket. The BCCI will leave no stone unturned to ensure that you have an enjoyable experience at all the hosting venues," BCCI CEO Hemang Amin said in an official statement released by ICC.
“Tickets for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 will go on sale this month and we call on all of cricket’s hundreds of millions of fans to register your interest from next week to ensure you are one of the first to receive ticket news and to be a part of the biggest Cricket World Cup. The amendment to the schedule will ensure that players and fans will have the best possible experience at the pinnacle event of the one-day game," ICC Head of Events, Chris Tetley said.
Arch-rivals India and Pakistan will square off on October 14 in the World Cup's rescheduled schedule, which was released by the ICC on Wednesday. The initial date for the clash was October 15 in Ahmedabad.
As a result, the England vs Afghanistan game in Delhi will now take place on Sunday, October 15, rather than Saturday, October 14.
The last league encounter between Men in Blue and the Netherlands will now be contested in Bengaluru on November 12.
The World Cup begins on October 5 with a match between the 2019 champions England and New Zealand in Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium, and it concludes on November 19.
