West-Central Duleep Trophy tie shifted to Nagpur

The Duleep Trophy match between West Zone and Central Zone, to be played from January 4 to 7, has finally been shifted to Nagpur.

The tie, originally allotted to Kanpur, was moved to Meerut by the BCCI but due to "unavoidable circumstances" the Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association sought to change the venue again, according to the UPCA secretary Jyoti Bajpai.

Bajpai, who is also the convenor of the Central Zone, said "due to unavoidable circumstances, a change in the venue has been made with necessary clearance obtained from the Indian Cricket Board."
