Wankhede Stadium

Situated in the financial capital of India, Mumbai, the Wankhede Stadium is an international cricket stadium and the home ground of the Mumbai Cricket Team and IPL franchise Mumbai Indians. Following renovations for the 2011 World Cup, the stadium now has a capacity of 33,108.

The offices of the BCCI, IPL, Mumbai Cricket Association headquarters, and Cricket Centre are also inside the stadium premises. It is situated near the Marine Drive in the Churchgate area of South Mumbai, Maharashtra. Going by the field area, the Wankhede is one of the smallest stadiums in the world.

The stadium has hosted plenty of high-profile matches, notably the 2011 World Cup Final between India and Sri Lanka. Also, the Wankhede witnessed the farewell of Indian cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar, who played his last Test match against the West Indies here in November 2013.

The ground has hosted a total of 27 tests, 27 ODIs, and 9 T20Is, featuring Team India and other teams. The ground is relatively younger than some of the older grounds in India, like the Eden Gardens in Kolkata or the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.
