South Africa's Rassie van der Dussen, left, and Aiden Markram run between the wicket The ICC had little choice but to make this arrangement after the Indian government did not grant permission for its cricket team to travel to Pakistan, the original host of the tournament. Van der Dussen called it "a definite advantage" as India are staying at the same hotel, same place and using the same practice facilities right throughout the tournament. If you can stay in one place, stay in one hotel, practise in the same facilities, play in the same stadium, on the same pitches every time, it's definitely an advantage," van der Dussen was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo.
