04 Mar, 2021 By Editor

All the eight knockout matches of the Vijay Hazare Trophy will be held at Arun Jaitley Stadium and Palam Grounds, as reported by a source from Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) on Tuesday.

Gujarat, Andhra, Karnataka, Kerala, Mumbai, Saurashtra, and Uttar Pradesh have already booked their spot in the quarterfinal. However, the winner of the Eliminator fixture between Delhi and Uttarakhand will join seven other teams.

“We were not aware of Delhi hosting the matches until a few days ago. But the Indian cricket board suddenly asked the DDCA to host the marches. So, a DDCA apex council meeting were hurriedly convened and the venues and other details were finalised,” a source was quoted as saying to IANS.

The knockout phase begins on March 7 with the Eliminator and will end on March 14 with the final at the Arun Jaitley Stadium to decide the winner of the 2021 Vijay Hazare Trophy. Three of our Royal Challengers - Devdutt Padikkal, Mohammed Azharuddin, and Sachin Baby - will be seen in action during the knockout stages of the premium List A tournament of India.
