Eden Gardens can finally breathe a sigh of relief with the International Cricket Council saying it was satisfied with the pace of renovation work at the historic venue in Kolkata.
“The ICC was encouraged by the progress made towards completing the necessary construction work at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The three-person ICC inspection team, which visited the ground on Monday, still believes that the outstanding work can be completed in time to host the three ICC World Cup 2011 matches, scheduled for Eden Gardens on 15, 18 and 20 March,” the ICC said.
