ICC has faith in HPCA, Kotla

Published on: 

Not disconcerted by the uncertainty cloud over the World T20 clash between India and Pakistan in Dharamsala, the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Monday said it is confident of the marquee game going ahead as scheduled and has no plans of shifting the venue.

Besides, the world body is also not too concerned about the logistical issues faced by Delhi's Ferozeshah Kotla ground.

The ICC said it has no intention to change the venues which were decided almost a year back.

"Challenges in respect to those two venues, they are there. But we are dealing with those problems," ICC Chief Executive Dave Richardson said addressing reporters at a city hotel here.

"The venues were decided a year back and all arrangements are in place to stage the matches at those two venues. These challenges have reasons not through the fault of the BCCI or the ICC. But the fact is that we are dealing with these and we are confident that the matches will proceed at those two venues.”
