The meeting also decided to approve the operational plan and the event budget of the tournament.

It fixed the inspection of the venues in October-November.

The recommendations of the COC meeting will now be communicated to the ICC Finance Committee and ICC Board for consideration.

Tournament director Ratnakar Shetty said it was a productive meeting.

'We have continued to make real progress. We are operating at full steam ahead for what should be a great event in 2011.'
