ICC World Cup 2023 schedule: Complete list of matches to played, results, venue details and more

The top-ranked teams on the points table advance to the knockout stages or playoffs, depending on the tournament format.

The ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 has kicked off in India. Defending champions England face last edition's runners-up New Zealand in the tournament opener in Ahmedadad's Narendra Modi stadium, which is also the venue for the India vs Pakistan clash on October 15

The finals, also in Ahmedabad, will be on November 19, and the two semifinals will be played at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium and Kolkata's Eden Gardens on November 15 and 16, respectively. Both semis and finals have a reserve day.

A total of 48 World Cup games will be held across 10 venues. India will be playing their matches in Chennai, Delhi, Ahmedabad, Pune, Dharamsala, Lucknow, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bengaluru and Ahmedabad.

10 teams - India, England, Pakistan, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan and Netherlands -- will play against each other once in a single round-robin format, with the top four teams going on to the semis.

Team India start their campaign on October 8 against Australia at Chennai's MA Chidambaram Stadium. Apart from Pakistan and Australia, India face a strong challenge from New Zealand in Dharamsala and England in Lucknow, the only two teams who have beaten them in the 2019 World Cup.

Day matches will start at 10:30 am while the day-night games are scheduled for 2 pm. The ODI World Cup 2023 will be streamed live on the Star Sports Network in India. All the 48 matches will be streamed live on the Disney+ Hotstar app and website.

7 wins are needed from 9 matches for a place in the semi-finals. If teams are level, then total wins will be the tie-breaker, with net run rate as a key factor.
