LONDON: England will play the coronavirus-delayed final match of their 2021 Test series against India in July next year at Edgbaston, the England and Wales Cricket Board announced on Friday.
The match was due to take place last month at Old Trafford but the tourists said they were unable to field a team due to concerns about the spread of Covid-19 within their camp.
Due to fixture complexities in next season’s English cricket schedule, the finale of the five-match series, which India lead 2-1, will now take place at Birmingham’s Edgbaston ground from July 1 following an agreement between the ECB and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
