New Delhi, Mar 03 (ANI): The Indian cricket board has said that the much-anticipated India-Pakistan World Twenty20 clash will be held in Dharamsala as scheduled, adding that it is the country’s responsibility to provide foolproof security to the visiting side. Following a meeting with the chief of Himachal Pradesh state, the Board of Control for Cricket in India secretary Anurag Thakur said that no last minute changes would be made in the match venue. The India-Pakistan match is to be played on March 19 at Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium. Thakur said that it was not possible to change the venue of the match at the last minute.Since the attack on Indian Air Force base in Pathankot on January 02-which killed seven Indian security personnel, Pakistan has said it is clamping down on Jaish-e-Mohammed, which India has long accused Pakistani authorities of tolerating.
