The two semi-finals of the mega event would be held at the Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, Sri Lanka, and the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Pakistan.
The meeting, held at the residence of the Board of Cricket Control in India (BCCI) president Sharad Pawar, also decided that the inaugural function of the tournament will be hosted by Bangladesh, which would also conduct the opening tie at the Sher-E-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka.
The meeting was convened to sort out issues related to the staging of the cricketing extravaganza.
Apart from Pawar, others who attended the meeting were Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Dr Nasim Ashraf, CEO of Sri Lanka Cricket Duleep Mendis, CEO of Bangladesh Cricket Board Mehboob Rehman, former BCCI president Inderjit Singh Bindra, secretary Niranjan Shah, joint secretary M P Pandove and Chief Administrative Officer Ratnakar Shetty.
