It is a good day for the Indian cricket team. After scripting history in Sydney by winning the first test series in Australia, India will also boast of the world’s largest cricket stadium in Ahmedabad.

The pictures of the stadium which is nearing completion were shared by the Gujarat Cricket Association Vice President Parimal Nathwani on micro-blogging site Twitter.

The stadium will have a seating capacity of around one lakh people and is being constructed in Motera, Ahmedabad. Calling the stadium as the ‘dream project’ of Gujarat Cricket Association, the arena is said to be bigger than the Melbourne Cricket ground which is said to be the largest in the world by capacity.
