ICC Champions Trophy 2017

ICC Champions Trophy 2017 The 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup will be the 11th ICC Cricket World Cup,[1] scheduled to be jointly hosted by Australia and New Zealand from 14 February to 2

The 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup will be the 11th ICC Cricket World Cup,[1] scheduled to be jointly hosted by Australia and New Zealand from 14 February to 29 March 2015. 49 matches will be played in 14 venues with Australia staging 26 games at grounds in Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Hobart, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney while New Zealand hosts 23 games in seven cities, including Auckland, Christchur

ch, Dunedin, Hamilton, Napier, Nelson and Wellington.[2] The final match of the tournament will take place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. It will be one of the world's largest international sports tournaments, with 14 competing teams and more than 400 accredited players and officials taking part in it.[3]

The hosting rights were awarded at the same time as those of the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup, which Australia and New Zealand had originally bid to host, and the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup, which was awarded to England.[4] The 2011 tournament was awarded to the four Asian Test cricket playing countries, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, in a 10 to 3 vote (Pakistan later lost the co-hosting rights due to a terrorist attack on the Sri Lankan team). The International Cricket Council were sufficiently impressed with the trans-Tasman bid that it was decided to award the next World Cup to Australia and New Zealand.[5][6] This is the second time that the tournament will be held in Australia and New Zealand, with the first being the 1992 Cricket World Cup. India are the defending champions, having won the tournament in 2011 when it was held in the Indian Subcontinent, defeating Sri Lanka in the finals. Tickets for India vs Pakistan match (Pool-B), scheduled on 15 February 2015, was reportedly sold out within 12 minutes.[7].
