Delays in preperations for next year's Cricket World Cup has forced another change of venue for the New Zealand cricketers tour of India in November.

The owners of Eden Gardens in Kolkata have announced that they are unable to host the second test because of ongoing renovation work.

The test had originally been allocated Lucknow but it also expressed its inability to host.

Kanpur is the new venue.

In July the third test was shifted from Mumbai to Nagpur because of ongoing renovations at Wankhede Stadium.
