The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has dismissed reports claiming the opening One Day International (ODI) match between India and Sri Lanka has been moved from Delhi to Ahmedabad. BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia clarified that the December 13 fixture remains scheduled for Delhi according to standard venue allocation policies. The speculation regarding a venue shift arose from reports of ongoing construction work at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium. While Ahmedabad is confirmed to host the third ODI on December 19, the BCCI stated that no decision has been made to alter the location of the opening match. Sri Lanka is scheduled to tour India from December 13 to 27, 2026, for a white-ball series consisting of three ODIs and three T20Is. Following the opening match in Delhi, the ODI series is expected to move to Bengaluru and Ahmedabad. The subsequent T20I series is slated to take place in Rajkot, Cuttack, and Pune. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-12: Cricket updates: ICC rankings shifts and BCCI venue clarification ICC Women's ODI rankings see Australia's Alyssa Perry return to the top 10, while the BCCI denies rumors that the India-Sri Lanka ODI in Delhi will be moved to Ahmedabad. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/cricket-updates-icc-rankings-shifts-and-bcci-venue-clarification ### 2026-10-12: BCCI denies shifting India-Sri Lanka ODI venue from Delhi BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia has denied reports that the opening India vs Sri Lanka ODI scheduled for December 13 in Delhi has been moved to Ahmedabad. 5 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/bcci-denies-shifting-india-sri-lanka-odi-venue-from-delhi ### 2026-10-10: India vs Sri Lanka ODI venue shifted from Delhi to Ahmedabad The first India vs Sri Lanka ODI has been moved from Delhi to Ahmedabad after the DDCA cited planned stadium renovations. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/india-vs-sri-lanka-odi-venue-shifted-from-delhi-to-ahmedabad --- Cite as: India-Sri Lanka ODI venue dispute.
