International Cricket Council (ICC) on Thursday revealed the fixtures list for the warm-up games and India got only one game to warm-up for the showpiece event being held in the West Indies and the USA.
Canada and Nepal will kick off the warm-up fixtures on Monday, May 27 in Texas and India-Bangladesh June 1 clash will be the last of such fixtures.
Earlier, teams used to play two warm-up games ahead of an ICC event but the tight scheduling this year will not allow all 20 sides to do that ahead of the tournament.
Indian Premier League 2024 ends on May 26, less than a week before the World Cup begins.
ICC in its release stated that for the upcoming tournament teams had the choice to play up to two warm-up matches, depending on their arrival time at the event.
17 teams have chosen to play the warm-up games, as per ICC.
