As the long-awaited ICC men’s ODI World Cup schedule was released on Tuesday, Chennai’s M.A. Chidambaram Stadium lost out on one of the marquee clashes, with Kolkata’s iconic Eden Gardens emerging as the big winner.
As reported in The Hindu recently, the provisional fixtures had listed Chennai as a semifinal host in the middle of November along with Mumbai.
However, when the official schedule was released, Chepauk was out and Eden was in.
