Uncertainty looms over Pakistan-England World Cup fixture at Eden Gardens on November 12

The Hindu  

The Kolkata Police has informed the Cricket Association of Bengal that it may not be possible for them to deploy enough security for the World Cup fixture between Pakistan and England, scheduled on November 12, as it coincides with Diwali. Last week, BCCI secretary Jay Shah told reporters in New Delhi that the schedule of the tournament will be revised after “several full member countries” wrote to the Indian cricket board requesting it to change two or three dates in the schedule. They were also happy with the work being done at the new player’s dressing room, hospitality box, corporate box, and the already completed Press Box and Media Centre,” CAB president Snehasish Ganguly told reporters in Kolkata. “We are also confident of completing the work which is left well ahead of the September deadline,” Ganguly said, adding: “The stadium’s main electronic scoreboard will have a new look while a second electronic scoreboard will also be installed at the ground.” Kolkata will be hosting its first match of the tournament on October 28 between Qualifier 1 and Bangladesh, followed by Pakistan vs Bangladesh on October 31 and India vs South Africa on November 5.
