Kolkata Police issues security concerns for this World Cup match; ICC to reschedule again

After facing scheduling issues with the India-Pakistan match, another potential change in the World Cup schedule has emerged. The Kolkata Police are reportedly concerned about providing security for the Pakistan-England match scheduled for November 12.

The worry stems from Kali Puja falling on the same day, and the police’s apprehension has been communicated to the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB). This development comes amidst ongoing uncertainty over the World Cup schedule, with the BCCI expected to announce revised fixtures soon.
