Arun Jaitley Stadium unavailable for India vs Sri Lanka ODI on December 13 amid renovation work

The international fixture between India and Sri Lanka slated for December 13, 2026, has lost its original home as the Delhi and District Cricket Association informed the national governing body that upgrades are required. A comprehensive overhaul of both the playing turf and sub-surface water removal systems is currently underway, with a targeted four-month completion window that puts the day-night encounter in jeopardy.

Local domestic fixtures including Ranji Trophy matches against Gujarat, Services, and Maharashtra must now relocate to alternative facilities within the capital. The Palam facility and the Jamia Millia ground have been designated to host these displaced games while the primary venue remains unavailable, forcing officials to seek a substitute location for the upcoming international clash.
