Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium has been dropped as the venue for the third Test between India and New Zealand in November due to ongoing renovation work.
The arena has been undergoing a facelift ahead of the World Cup next year, and the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) does not want to rush things and host a Test without a proper trial run, reports Cricinfo.
MCA joint secretary Lalchand Rajput said: "The MCA managing committee took the decision that we won't be in a position to host it [the Test] at the Wankhede Stadium in November as we would like to play a few first-class matches [on the newly laid wicket] before the World Cup.”
