5 Largest Cricket Stadiums In India

4. Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad (55,000 capacity)

The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium is located in the eastern suburbs of Uppal, Hyderabad, Telangana. The stadium was established in 2003 by the Hyderabad Cricket Association. It has a capacity of 55,000 and extends across 16 acres of land.

The ends are named Pavilion End and North End. On the retirement of VVS Laxman, the HCA decided to honour the veteran by naming the North End after him. The stadium is the home ground for the Hyderabad Cricket Association team and the Sunrisers Hyderabad team in the Indian Premier League.

It hosted the opener and final of the 2017 Indian Premier League and the final of the 2019 Indian Premier League. The stadium also witnessed the first-ever Ganguly-Durjoy Trophy match which was played in 2017 between India and Bangladesh.
