The alteration in dates for the Indian vs. Pakistan match is primarily due to the beginning of the Navratri festival.If the match had been played on its original date of October 15, security arrangements would have been challenging. The ICC and BCCI approached the PCB with a request to reschedule two of its group matches, including the match against India in Ahmedabad.

The eagerly anticipated ICC World Cup match between India and Pakistan, originally scheduled for October 15 in Ahmedabad, may now be contested on October 14.

The inaugural match of the tournament will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on October 5. The final of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, as announced by BCCI Secretary Jay Shah.
