MELBOURNE: The men's T20 World Cup 2022 warm-up fixture between Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe has been rescheduled, the International Cricket Council (ICC) has confirmed. The match will now be played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Tuesday, 11 October.
"The match was to be played on Monday, October 10, at the same venue as per the original schedule but the change had to be carried out following a change in Zimbabwe's travel schedule," ICC said in an official statement.
The eight teams featuring in the first round of the 16-team tournament play their warm-up fixtures from October 10 to 13 in Melbourne. The Junction Oval is the other venue that will host practice matches for the first round.
The warm-up fixtures for teams who have direct entries in the Super 12s will be played at two venues in Brisbane -- The Gabba and the Allan Border Field -- on October 17 and 19.
