Tri-nation schedule involving India, SL, Bangladesh revised

This series had earlier been scheduled to begin on March 8 and conclude on March 20.

This series will take place just days after India returns from South Africa.

The fixtures for the T20I tri- series involving Sri Lanka, India and Bangladesh have been revised, and the tournament will now be held from March 6 to 18.

To kick off the tournament, which will be played in celebration of Sri Lanka’s 70th year of independence, India will once again take on the island nation in the opening match.

 

The event was to run from March 8 to 20, as per the earlier schedule.

The tournament, to be called Nidahas Trophy, will follow a round-robin format with all the three teams playing each other twice, and the top two progressing to the March 18 final.

All the matches will be played at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.

DSPORT, a premium sports TV channel by Discovery Communications, has acquired the exclusive India broadcast rights of the tournament.
