After successfully co-hosting the World Cup cricket tournament earlier this year, India will now play host to the inaugural T20 World Cup for the blind
David Townley, president of the World Blind Cricket Council, says the group voted during a two-day meeting in the United Arab Emirates that ended Sunday to hold the tournament in Bangalore starting on Dec. 3. Its schedule has yet to be finalized but the tournament will last a maximum of 14 days.
He says council members Australia, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, India, Pakistan, South Africa, Bangladesh, Nepal, West Indies and England will participate.
The council also decided to stage a one-day World Cup in 2014 with a host to be chosen in September. Townley says Pakistan and South Africa have expressed interest but no formal bids have been submitted.
