Formerly known as Feroz Shah Kotla, this ground was the first stadium to host a Test match in India after independence and is famous as the site of Anil Kumble's 10-wicket haul in 1999.
The BCCI has moved the first ODI of India's home series against Sri Lanka from Delhi to Visakhapatnam, keeping the December 13 date and 2 pm start. The DDCA requested the change, citing potential weather disruption and proposed renovation work at Arun Jaitley Stadium.
The BCCI has dismissed reports that India’s opening ODI against Sri Lanka will be shifted from Delhi to Ahmedabad. The December 13 match remains allotted to Delhi, while Ahmedabad is scheduled to host the series finale on December 19.
