[ad_1]

India and Australia There is a preparation to shift the third Test to be played in Dharamshala from March 1 to 5, as the outfield of this ground is not ready for the match. This is being claimed in a report. BCCI Pitch curator Taposh Chatterjee visited the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association (HPCA) stadium to inspect the pitch and outfield. He will submit his report to the top BCCI officials for the final call.

Competition can be held in Bangalore or Visakhapatnam

Bengaluru and Visakhapatnam are among the places where the third test can be shifted. A senior BCCI source said that there are certain standards of BCCI which should be fit to host the match. No competitive game has been played on this ground and the outfield is also not ready. While there are 16 days left for the match to start. It is also believed that the weather in Dharamshala can also spoil the game.

outfield not ready

There are some areas in the outfield where the grass has been blown away. The forecast of rain in the next few days may halt the ongoing work. A HPCA source aware of the matter said that we have told that if given a chance, we would like to host the match but it is for the BCCI to decide. The curator’s report will be based on the parameters. A Test in Dharamsala is one of the most anticipated matches as it is considered to be a favorable track for fast bowlers and also considered an ideal destination for cricket tourism.

The BCCI team also did the inspection

A BCCI team also inspected the venue a few weeks back. The possible relocation of the venue from Dharamsala to outside will disappoint thousands of fans yearning for a world-class Test match. Let us tell you that in the first Test match played in Nagpur, India defeated Australia by an innings and 132 runs. India is ahead 1-0 in the four-match series. This series is a way for India to reach the final of the World Test Championship.
