Indore, which hosted a ODI during Australia series, and Mumbai, which will host an ODI during New Zealand series, will host the second and third T20Is respectively. The two matches will be played on December 22 and 24.
“We were initially supposed to host Sri Lanka in December and Odisha [Cuttack] were supposed to host the New Zealand game in November,” Kerala Cricket Association secretary Jayesh George told ESPNcricinfo. “But, there is a festival in Odisha in November, so we are now hosting the New Zealand game instead.”
