Mohali not in shortlisted venues for ICC World Cup 2023

The ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 will be played in India later this year. According to reports, the tournament will start on October five and will end on November 19. A total of 11 venues have also been shortlisted for the same.

Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Dharamsala, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Lucknow, Indore, Rajkot and Mumbai are reportedly the venues shortlisted. It is quite shocking to not see the name of Mohali in the list.
