The Irani Trophy match between Mumbai and Rest of India in Rajkot has been postponed by five days and will now begin on October 6. The change in schedule was necessitated to avoid it clashing with South Africa A's tour of India which concludes at the end of September.

"The postponement by a few days was necessary as the South Africa A series ends only at the end of September," Ratnakar Shetty, the BCCI's chief administrative officer, told PTI.

South Africa A's tour includes two four-day matches, followed by three one-dayers. The final one-dayer, also in Rajkot, is scheduled for September 30.

The five-day Irani Trophy match is traditionally a curtain raiser for the Indian domestic season.
