India-Lanka opener likely at Kolkata

KOLKATA: The first one-day international between Sri Lanka and India to be played on February 8 is likely to be shifted to Kolkata from Pune. The BCCI on Thursday sounded out the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) which has informed the Board that it is prepared to organise the match.

The match, to be held at Pune, apparently ran into difficulties with the Maharashtra Cricket Association unable to get the stadium, owned by the Municipal Corporation. — Special Correspondent
