DUBAI: The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Monday announced that the upcoming edition of the eight-team women’s ODI World Cup will take place from September 30 to November 2 across five venues in India and Sri Lanka. The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium (Bengaluru), ACA Stadium (Guwahati), Holkar Stadium (Indore), ACA-VDCA Stadium (Visakhapatnam), and R. Premadasa Stadium (Colombo) are the designated stadiums for the tournament. The Sri Lankan capital will be organising all games featuring Pakistan. The event will commence in Bengaluru with India playing the first game. The host’s opponent, though, is yet to be decided. The last ICC global women’s event hosted by India was the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in 2016, when it was held alongside the men’s event. The venues for the knockouts will depend on Pakistan‘s qualification, as two alternative venues have been identified for one semifinal and the final.
The first semifinal will take place in either Guwahati or Colombo on October 29, with the second to be played the following day in Bengaluru. Agencies
