INDIA WILL host 29 world cup matches including the first semifinal and the final of the 2011 cricket world cup. This was announced by the International Cricket Council World Organising Committee on Tuesday (April 28).
ICC has also decided to shift the World Cup secretariat to Mumbai from Lahore after it was decided that no match will be held in Pakistan owing to security concerns, in the aftermath of the Lahore attack.
ICC chief executive Haroon Lorgat announced that India will hold 29 matches at 8 venues, including the final and one semifinal. Neighbouring Sri Lanka will hold 12 matches at three venues including a semi-final match.
