The Central Organizing Committee has recommended India to host 8 of 14 world cup matches that were scheduled to take place in Pakistan.

The COC had a meeting with ICC yesterday in Mumbai to discuss about the new venues for the matches scheduled in Pakistan.

However Pakistan has skipped this meeting citing to various reasons. The COC has recommended that India will host 8 matches and Sri Lanka will host 4 matches and Bangladesh will host 2 matches that were scheduled to take place in Pakistani soil. India will now host 29
matches, Sri Lanka 12 and Bangladesh 8.

The COC has sent this to the ICC and is waiting for the final approval. It was also decided that Mumbai will be the secretariat of the tournament and Ratnakar Shetty, Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) chief administrative officer, was appointed the tournament director.

Shetty said, "We had a good, productive meeting. There is much hard work to be done but we are confident we are now well on the way, with operational plans in place to become effective from the start of August. Moving forward, the COC will meet on a regular basis with everyone committed to a successful event, something we are confident we can achieve."
