Jay Shah praises Bumrah, Sutherland on winning ICC December Player of Month Awards
"Congrats to Jasprit Bumrah and Anna Sutherland on winning ICC Players of the Month for December!" said Jay Shah in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
The schedule for the Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023 has been made public by the International Cricket Council (ICC). India is set to host the ICC World Cup 2023. Anticipation and excitement fill the air as fans eagerly await the battle of cricketing giants on home turf.
This massive event will take place at ten different venues in India over the course of 46 days later this year. On October 5, the previous edition finalists, England and New Zealand will square off in a match with each other in Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium to kick off the World Cup.
The tournament will feature a total of 10 teams. The first eight of whom have previously qualified through the Cricket World Cup Super League. The Qualifier competition in Zimbabwe, which ends on July 9, will determine the remaining two slots.
The top four teams will advance to the knockout stage and semifinals after each team plays the other nine in a ’round-robin’ style.
Proud moment for India! Hosting the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup for the fourth time is an incredible honor. With 12 cities as the backdrop, we’ll showcase our rich diversity and world-class cricketing infrastructure. Get ready for an unforgettable tournament! #CWC2023 @ICC @BCCI pic.twitter.com/76VFuuvpcK
