BCCI also announced fixtures for West Indies, Sri Lanka and South Africa’s tour of India next year.

Former team India skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s home town will be hosting an international T20 tie after a gap of four years. JSCA stadium had last hosted a T20 match between India and Australia on October 7, 2017. India had beaten Australia by nine wickets in that rain-curtailed match in a three-match series.

Since its inception in 2013, JSCA stadium, with a seating capacity of 50,000, has so far conducted 2 Test matches, 5 ODIs and 2 international T20s besides a few IPL matches.
