The Narendra Modi Stadium is the world's biggest cricket stadium situated near the Sabarmati River which was built in 1982 to nurture cricketing talent in the region. Initially, it accommodated 49,000 spectators.
In 2015, under the leadership of the then Gujarat Cricket Association (GCA) President and current Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, the GCA opted to remodel the Motera stadium into the world's largest. Consequently, renamed after the Hon'ble Prime Minister himself.
Narendra Modi Stadium Capacity
The grand makeover of the Narendra Modi Stadium involved the same team that constructed the Statue of Unity. The project reportedly cost Rs 800 crore. One of the main challenges was to ensure unobstructed views of the field for all 132,000 seats.
The 132,000-seat stadium more than doubles the capacity of the old stadium and holds 32,000 more people than Australia’s iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground which is the second-largest stadium in the world.
