The marquee World Cup clash between India and Pakistan will be held in Ahmedabad on October 14, instead of the originally scheduled date of October 15 as PCB has agreed with ICC and BCCI on a proposed change of dates for two of its matches. Pakistan will also play Sri Lanka on October 10 instead of October 12 in Hyderabad which will facilitate a three-day gap before the India game. The India versus Pakistan match had to be rescheduled due to issues with regard to the deployment of security on the first day of the Navratri festival in Ahmedabad. India vs Pakistan: Fans Book Hospital Beds in Ahmedabad With Surge in Hotel Room Prices Around IND vs PAK ICC World Cup 2023 Match Date.
