Indian Board To Make Delhi T20 Venue Decision Monday

The Board of Control for Cricket in India said that New Delhi's Feroz Shah Kotla ground "has three more days to acquire the necessary paperwork to retain hosting rights for matches at the World Twenty20 tournament starting next month," according to Sudipto Ganguly of REUTERS. The Delhi & District Cricket Association "failed to get the requisite clearances from various civic authorities in order to host a T20 match between India and Sri Lanka on Feb. 12, forcing the BCCI to transfer the contest to Ranchi." Delhi is scheduled to host four matches in the March 8-April 3 tournament, including a semifinal on March 30, but "could lose out completely due to an inability to abide by bureaucratic routine." BCCI Secretary Anurag Thakur said, "We discussed it in the recent International Cricket Council meetings held in Dubai and we said 30 days prior to the World Cup (we will make a decision). So on Feb. 8, we will make a final call on DDCA" (REUTERS, 2/5).
