India-Sri Lanka ODI Series Opener Moved from Delhi to VisakhapatnamPreviousNext

The first ODI between India and Sri Lanka, originally scheduled for December 13, 2026, in Delhi, has been shifted to the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) made the change following a request from the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA), citing potential weather disruptions and ongoing renovation work at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. The rest of the series will continue as planned, with matches in Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, and subsequent T20Is in Rajkot, Cuttack, and Pune.
