NEW DELHI, April 10: The International Cricket Council (ICC) has approved four Indian venues where Champions Trophy matches will be played later this year, an official said on Monday.
The limited-overs tournament will be held at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai, the Sardar Patel stadium in Ahmedabad, the Punjab Cricket Association ground in Mohali and the Sawai Man Singh stadium in Jaipur.
The ICC, which previously insisted on just three venues for the month-long event, okayed a fourth venue after the Indian board agreed to pay US$200,000 to the world body as compensation.—AFP
