International cricket is set for a grand homecoming at Cuttack’s iconic Barabati Stadium. The BCCI has confirmed that India will face Sri Lanka in a high-octane T20 International on December 24, 2026.

This clash marks the second game of a three-match series, sandwiched between fixtures in Rajkot and Pune.


The news has sparked immense excitement among local fans, ending a long wait for world-class cricket in Odisha. The stadium holds a special place in fans' hearts, particularly recalling the 2017 encounter where India dominated Sri Lanka with a massive 93-run victory.


With the historic venue gearing up for the 2026-27 season, the festive December atmosphere is expected to reach a fever pitch.

As Barabati stadium prepares its pitch, the "Blue Army" supporters are already counting down the days to witness their heroes in action once again.
