The one-off Test between India and Bangladesh has been pushed by a day and will now take place from 9-13 February at Hyderabad.
We have received the notification from BCCI. The game will start on Thursday instead of Wednesday, 8 February.

The BCCI feels that overall crowd attendance over five days will be better with the game beginning on a Thursday.
Bangladesh have toured India in the past for multi-team events but has never played a Test or bilateral series against the home team.
Bangladesh are currently playing in New Zealand and they are expected to arrive in India by 1 February, after which they would play a three-day warm-up match.
