The International Cricket Council has moved from Pakistan 14 matches that were due to be played there in the 2011 Cricket World Cup due to security concerns.
UK newspaper The Guardian reports that, at a meeting in Mumbai of the World Cup’s central organizing committee yesterday, it was decided that India will host eight of the 14, Sri Lanka will host four, and Bangladesh will host two.
Tournament director Ratnakar Shetty said, “We had a good, productive meeting. There was a recognition that there is much hard work to be done but we are confident we are now well on the way, with operational plans in place to become effective from the start of August.
"Moving forward, the COC will meet on a regular basis with everyone committed to a successful event – something we are confident we can achieve."
