Wankhede Stadium

Wankhede Stadium is an international cricket ground located in Mumbai, India. Owned and operated by the Mumbai Cricket Association, it serves as the home ground of the Mumbai Indians and also houses the headquarters of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, the MCA and the Indian Premier League.

Across 63 matches in our database, the venue averages 194.6 in the first innings, underlining its reputation as a high-scoring surface. The highest total recorded here is 399/7 by South Africa, a marker of just how heavily the ground can favour batters on its day. Chasing sides have won 35 of 62 eligible games for a success rate of 56.5%, while teams defending a total have come out on top 27 times — a fairly even split that keeps captains guessing at the toss. Recent IPL encounters reflect that balance: Mumbai Indians chased down Lucknow Super Giants' 228/5, while Sunrisers Hyderabad successfully defended after Mumbai posted 243/5, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru produced 240/4 to win on the same ground.

With its central role in Indian cricket administration and a consistent diet of marquee fixtures, Wankhede remains one of the most prominent venues in the modern game.
