Cricket Stadium

[biased indian]

its a well known fact that eden gardens and MCG have huge capacity and both can accomodate 100,000 + people but which is the third biggest cricket stadium in the world

the ground where the first ODI between india and pakistan is going to take place is inm my home town and can hold 80,000 people, is there any other stadiums with a higher capacity???

Don't think so

Never knew Cochi had 80.000 capacity....
n plus I think MCG is just under 100,000

Telstra Stadium in sydney can hold over 80 but isn't international it would have to be an indian ground surely?

MCG right now is under 80000 because of redevelopment, but after the Commonwealth Games it'll be back up over 100000.

they didnt do anything new and they are selling more than 80,000 tickets for the first ODI and it sure will be full to the capacity

I take it Indians are losing interest in test matches, which explains the relatively low attendance for the series against Pakistan. You'd expect the stadiums to be at full capacity. Oh well, atleast the turnout is not as pathetic as Multan or Rawalpindi.

i think the test matches were well attented except for day 1 in calcutta
