ICC World Cup 2023 Schedule, Teams, Venues, Prize Money, And Broadcast Channel. The 2023 ICC ODI World Cup is knocking at our doors. The quadrennial marque event is scheduled to kick off in October 2023 and cricket fans are eagerly waiting for the tournament to unfold. Last time, the ODI World Cup was lifted by the hosts England and that has been true for the last three world Cups. This means that for the last three World Cups, the prestigious title has been lifted by the host nations.
This year, the ICC World Cup will take place in India and thus Indian fans, in particular, are very excited. The last time India hosted the ODI World Cup was back in 2011 and we ended up lifting the trophy under the captaincy of MS Dhoni. Expectations are thus understandably very high from Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team.
