The warm-up match between New Zealand and Pakistan in the Mens Cricket World Cup, which is scheduled to take place in Hyderabad on September 29, will now take place behind closed doors.

This step has been taken considering the match in Hyderabad coincides with festivals on the day and large gatherings are expected around the city, a BCCI press release said. The spectators who bought tickets for the game will receive a full refund.
