About

Narendra Modi Stadium sits on the edge of the Sabarmati River in Ahmedabad as more than just a cricket ground. It is a landmark of scale and ambition. With a seating capacity of around 132,000, it is the largest cricket stadium in the world, a place built to host cricket’s grandest occasions and accommodate the largest crowds the sport has ever seen. Owned and operated by the Gujarat Cricket Association, the stadium stages matches across formats, including Tests, ODIs, T20Is, first-class and List A games, and has become a regular venue for high-profile internationals and IPL fixtures, including as the home ground of the Gujarat Titans. The stadium’s story is one of transformation. Originally constructed in 1983 and renovated in 2006, it was completely rebuilt between 2015 and 2020, creating a modern, multi-facility arena designed for 21st-century cricket. Its defining moment on the global stage came on 19 November 2023, when it hosted the final of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup. With the eyes of the cricketing world fixed on Ahmedabad, the stadium provided a vast, dramatic setting for the tournament’s showpiece match, a night that firmly placed the venue among the sport’s most recognisable arenas. That sense of occasion will return when the Narendra Modi Stadium hosts the final of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in 2026, placing it in the rare position of staging the showpiece matches of both of the game’s major global tournaments within the same decade. The stadium was renamed in 2021 after Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, in recognition of his vision as former president of the Gujarat Cricket Association to develop a facility in Ahmedabad capable of meeting the aspirations of more than one lakh passionate cricket fans. Today, it stands as a symbol of modern Indian cricket, defined by its scale, its ambition, and its growing association with the sport’s biggest moments.
