“NZC would’ve liked to have scheduled more India matches at Eden Park in Auckland but was unable to do so because of restrictions at the venue,” Anthony Crummy, NZC’s chief operating officer said.
All five ODI’s will be played at 830 hrs (IST). Whereas the first and third T20Is will begin at 8pm local time, the second T20 at Auckland will start an hour earlier due to restrictions on the number of events that can be held at night at Eden Park.
