Dubai: International Cricket Council (ICC) on Friday changed venue of Pakistan women cricket team’s matches for Women World Cup from Mumbai to Cuttack.
According to sources the team had to play group matches in Mumbai and Ahmadabad. Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) requested ICC to change venue as Shiv Sena threatened PCB after tension at Indo-Pak border, sources added.
ICC shifted the venue to Cuttack city of Orissa state after considering PCB’s concerns. The team will play all matches in the city but if the team reaches final, it will have to play final in Mumbai, said sources.
