Sawai Mansingh Stadium to host T20 match for the first time on November 17

When India take on New Zealand in the first match on November 17, their first T20 International will be played at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium here.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has appointed former cricketer Rahul Dravid as the coach of the team. After relinquishing his T20 captaincy, Virat Kohli will play his first match under the new captain. Sources say that Rohit Sharma can take over the command of the T20 team.

The preparations are in full swing with the Rajasthan Cricket Association planning to welcome the spectators at the venue.

The Indian team will reach Jaipur on November 10 and will be quarantined for three days. The team will practice at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium from November 14 to 16.

The New Zealand cricket team will reach Jaipur after completing its T20 World Cup engagements in the United Arab Emirates and will undergo a quarantine here. After this, both the teams will leave for Ranchi on November 18 for the second match.
