The home ground of the Late Shane Warne and many other players from Victoria State in Australia, it has the largest boundary. Talking about the square boundaries, it is above 90 meters long which is why six hitting in this ground is the most difficult job.

On the other hand, it can house as many as 1,00,000 people in the stands. Not to forget, whenever Australia has hosted a World Cup (ODI WC in 1992, 2015 and 20-20 WC in 2022), the final has been played at this ground. Also, during the Aussie winters, the ground is used to host Australia Football League (AFL). 

2. Narendra Modi Stadium

Formerly known as Motera Stadium, the stadium was revamped a few years ago. Two years back, the stadium was inaugurated after the rebuilding ahead of the India vs England Test match that ended in two days. Meanwhile, the stadium has the capacity to house around 1,30,000 people.

Also, the stadium was built in such a way that it can also host some indoor sports. Last year, the final of the Men’s Indian T20 League was also hosted at this ground. This year, with the ODI World Cup in sight, the stadium might host either the final or some of the knockout games.
