Sardar Patel Stadium in Ahmedabad Renovated for International Cricket
Sardar Patel Stadium in Ahmedabad, Gujarat has recently been renovated for international cricket matches. The stadium, which is the largest in India, has been the playing ground for some of India’s most memorable cricketing achievements such as the 2013 Champions Trophy.
To make the venue a true international standard sporting arena that can host international matches and other large events, the Gujarat Cricket Association had announced a renovation plan back in 2014. The plans involved covering the stadium with a strong air-conditioned canopy which would protect the venue from harsh weather and preserve the playing field and the ground. The canopy covers the entire stadium and offers an aesthetic view of the exterior of the stadium.
In addition to the air-conditioned canopy, the stadium now has 56 corporate boxes, over 4000 square meters of corporate facilities, five practice grounds and a 24-lane Greenfield Cricket Academy. These new additions to the stadium have allowed it to host huge cricket tournaments such as the India-Australia series, the IPL and more recently the Indian Premier League (IPL).
The redevelopment of the stadium has helped boost tourism in the state as well. Fans from all over the country and even abroad are flocking to Ahmedabad to witness the world-class cricket being played at the stadium.
Sardar Patel Stadium is now the premier cricketing venue in India, setting a high benchmark for other state stadiums. The success of the renovation projects stands testimony to the dedication of the Gujarat Cricket Association and the people of Gujarat in creating a venue that is truly international in every sense.
