with the championship game taking place on November 19 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
According to a source from ESPNcricinfo, the BCCI has narrowed its list of potential venues for the 10-team championship, which would feature 48 matches over a 46-day span, including three knockout rounds.
The 11 further shortlisted locations are Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Dharamsala, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Lucknow, Indore, Rajkot, and Mumbai, according to the article.
The BCCI has not yet announced the locations of any of the matches, with the exception of the championship game, which will take place in Ahmedabad in the largest stadium in the globe.
However, Mohali and Nagpur, which recently staged a Test cricket against visiting Australia, are not on the list of 12 cities. When India last hosted the 50-over World Cup in 2011, it won the competition.
