ECB receives India itinerary

14 July 2008

Please note: we have yet to receive ticketing information from BCCI; as soon as this has been confirmed by BCCI we'll add here to ecb.co.uk

The England and Wales Cricket Board has today received the proposed itinerary for this winter’s tour of India by the Board for Control of Cricket in India.

The ECB is disappointed that, despite their representations, the itinerary doesn’t offer the thousands of supporters who follow the England team abroad, the opportunity to experience more of the great cricket grounds of India.

As far as the ECB is concerned the acceptance of the itinerary remains subject to acceptable logistical arrangements and an acceptable security environment and security arrangements being in place at each of the venues.
