The three ODIs will now be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad and three T20Is will be held at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata.

"The decision to limit the series to two venues instead of six as originally announced has been done to mitigate biosecurity risks by cutting down on travel and movement of the teams, match officials, broadcasters, and other stakeholders," stated an official BCCI release. On January 19, ANI had reported that the upcoming series between India and West Indies will be played across just two venues -- Ahmedabad and Kolkata. The series will kick start on February 6 and will end on February 20.
