Eden Gardens to now host 1st Test against South Africa in November. Check India's updated home season
BCCI released an updated schedule for the upcoming home season. Eden Gardens will now host the 1st Test between India and South Africa in November.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) made some venue changes for the upcoming home season on Monday. The Eden Gardens in Kolkata, which was earlier slated to host the second Test between India and West Indies in October 2025, will now host the first Test between India and South Africa in November.
The second Test between India and West Indies will now be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
“The 2nd Test against West Indies, originally slated for Kolkata, will now be held at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. Meanwhile, the 1st Test against South Africa, starting November 14, 2025, has been shifted from New Delhi to Eden Gardens in Kolkata,” the BCCI said in an official release.
The outfield and the pitches are also being revamped at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Hence the upcoming ODI series between India and Australia Women has been moved out of Chennai.
The first two ODIs will now take place at the New PCA stadium in New Chandigarh, while the third and final ODI will be held at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.
The three one-day games between India A and South Africa A have also been moved from M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru to the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot. The BCCI has not provided a specific reason for this.
