The marquee World Cup match between India and Pakistan will now be played on October 14, one day before the original slot, the ICC confirmed on Wednesday as the world governing body announced rescheduling nine games of the tournament.

As per the latest update, Pakistan and England will have three of their games rescheduled (either date or time), while dates of India’s two games have been altered. The other India game that has been rescheduled is their last league match against the Netherlands which was originally scheduled for November 12 but now it will be held on November 11 in Bangalore.

That India versus Pakistan match will be advanced by a day was reported by PTI recently after security agencies expressed inability to provide adequate security on October 15, which is the first day of Hindu festival, Navratri. As a result, England’s fixture against Afghanistan in New Delhi will be moved from Saturday, October 14 and will now be played 24 hours later on Sunday, October 15. With Pakistan needing adequate gap before India game, their match against Sri Lanka will be played in Hyderabad on October 10.
