On Shashi Tharoor's World Cup Venues Complaint, BCCI's Retort
According to The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) source, Thiruvananthapuram did not get a chance to host the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 because there can only be 10 venues for the tournament and they can not just focus on the south region as Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai are being selected as the venues. "There are matches in the south like Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai - total have to be 10 venues so can't concentrate everything in south," a BCCI source said.
