DY Patil Stadium to host women’s Test in December

NEW DELHI:The iconic DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai will host the women’s Test match after almost 9 years, with England due to play a four-day game there from December 14-17, said a report.

England will tour India in December for three T20Is and a Test and according to ESPNcricinfo, all matches will be played in the state of Maharashtra.

The T20Is will be held at the Wankhede Stadium on December 6, 9, and 10 - with back-to-back weekend games representing an attempt to maximise crowds - and the Test at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai from December 14.

The tour will also feature an England A series in Mumbai, likely to comprise three T20s in Mumbai starting late November.

However, the date confirmations haven’t been made by the association nor from the BCCI, and are awaiting final sign-off and will soon be made public.

England women last toured India in 2019, losing 2-1 in the ODI leg of the tour at the Wankhede before winning the T20I series 3-0 in Guwahati. IANS
