Motera, the largest cricket stadium in the world inaugurated at Ahmedabad

Now no longer has Melbourne, is number one, Motera becomes the top and the largest cricket stadium in the world. Located in Sabarmati, Ahmedabad, the Motera Stadium is equipped with new decorations and the latest facilities for the 3rdTest match between India and England. The stadium was inaugurated on 24 February 2021 by President Ram Nath Kovind in the special presence of Union Home Minister  Amit Shah. There will be a festive atmosphere in the entire country including Gujarat.

The Sardar Patel Motera Stadium in Ahmedabad is spread over 63 acres, with a seating capacity of 1.10 lakh people. Currently, Melbourne is the largest cricket stadium in the world. It can accommodate 90,000 people simultaneously. After the statue of Unity,’ i.e. the world’s largest statue of Sardar Patel built in Gujarat, now the state is going to set the new record of housing the world’s largest stadium in cricket. Built at an estimated cost of Rs 800 crore, the beauty of this stadium is incredible.

The Dream Project of the largest stadium in Motera has houses 76 corporate boxes, an Olympic-level swimming pool, an indoor academy, four dressing rooms for athletes, food courts, and a GCA clubhouse, too.

A total of 11 clay pitches of six red and five black soils have been prepared in the stadium. It is the first stadium to use both colored clay for main and practice pitches. In the event of rain, the pitch can be dried in only 30 minutes. The state-of-the-art LED Floodlights will not uncomfortably warm up the atmosphere and will provide comfort to the spectators as well as the cricketers. An innovative feature of this stadium is that the 360-degree podium concourse at a height of 9 meters eases simplifies the movement of spectators, as well as provides a uniform view to the spectators from any stand. The corporate boxes that are designed have a seating capacity of 25 each. The 150-ton air-cooling tower will maintain the closed-air portion of the stadium fully air-conditioned. Huge dressing has been created for both the teams. Separate state-of-the-art gyms have also been set up. A special lounge has been built near the players and VIP entrance. The autographed bat collection of players from the teams of IPL and World Cup matches played so far in the Autograph Gallery at the stadium is the center of attraction. The “Hall of Fame”, featuring photographs of world-renowned cricketers, catches the eyeballs of the spectators.
