The third Test of Australia’s tour of India for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, originally scheduled to take place at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala from March 1-5 has now been moved to Holkar Stadium, Indore.

“Owing to harsh winter conditions in the region, the outfield lacks sufficient grass density and will need some time to develop fully,” BCCI stated on Monday.

The second Test match of the series starts in Delhi from February 17 while the fourth and last Test will be held in Ahmedabad from March 9-13.
