World Cup 2023 Schedule: Key Update on the Tournament Matches

Over the course of 46 days, 48 matches, including three knockout games, are scheduled to be played.

The schedule for the 2023 World Cup will be unveiled at The Oval during the World Test Championship final, according to BCCI secretary Jay Shah. The board has compiled a list of over a dozen venues from across India, and the final shortlist will be shared with the ICC shortly.

Shah made these remarks at a press conference following the BCCI’s special general meeting in Ahmedabad, which will host the IPL final on Sunday. While the ten-team World Cup is scheduled to take place between October 5 and November 19, the BCCI has yet to finalize the schedule, with only about four months until the tournament begins.
