The International Cricket Council (ICC) chief executive David Richardson confirmed on Wednesday that the Pakistan-India marquee clash of the World T20 has been shifted to Kolkata from Dharamsala.

He was addressing an ICC press conference when he said that the measure has been taken rather forcefully as the world body was not in the favour of reconsidering the venue.

"The step was taken after the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) shared its concerns with us," said Richardson.
