India want cricket tour of New Zealand trimmed

11:56 am on 2 March 2013

India's cricket tour of New Zealand next summer looks set to be trimmed to allow the Indians to take part in the Asian Cup.

The ICC future tours programme has India playing three tests, five one day internationals and a Twenty20 match in early 2014, but the BCCI is hosting the Asian Cup in February-March and wants the tour trimmed to two tests, two ODIs and two T20s.

Cricinfo is reporting that the two boards are still negotiating the tour.
