NEW DELHI:
Hosts and defending champions Pakistan will open the tournament by facing New Zealand in Karachi on February 19, according to the schedule released by the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Tuesday.
The hybrid model for the tournament was agreed after India refused to travel to Pakistan over political tensions between the neighbours.
India, who lost to Pakistan in the 2017 Champions Trophy final at Oval, the last time the tournament was held, will face their neighbours on February 23 in the high-profile Group A game and then play New Zealand on March 2.
Besides staging India's group matches, Dubai will also host one semi-final.
