Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium has made a name for itself thanks to its huge capacity. More than a lakh spectators can enjoy the matches live at once.
While the stadium is relatively new, the ground has been hosting international matches since 1982. Back then, it was named Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Cricket Stadium.
Since then, the venue has staged matches across all formats, with more regular fixtures scheduled following its reconstruction. And that means the venue has been logging new records more frequently.
Here you can look at the Narendra Modi Stadium’s records and stats for Test, ODI, and T20I cricket.
