    I was here for last year's IPL final with Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals..!! LOVED THE STADIUM. The environment was MENTAL. The whole vibe with people cheering and the look of everyone from the top stand is just unreal..!!!
    Anyway, I had an issue with number of gates and leaving facilities as there was a big commotion during leaving the stadium after the game. Being a new stadium I think I shud give it a chance and I hope they have sorted this out

Having little to no shelters for lower levels and front part of upper levels, u might have to carry an umbrella for shade. It's going to be too hot any season during the day but now in march it will hit u with a hot slap. Carry coverings and shades if possible.

  • @singisking88
    @singisking88 Před rokem +1

    I think the best way to deal with this pitch debate business is to have two pitches under cover prepared by the curators and to keep them under covers, i.e. no media or players get to see the pitch until the toss. The team that wins the toss then gets to do a blind selection of the pitch they want to play. That way the teams will have already selected a playing 11 and there will be an unbiased approach heading to the game . #BCCI #ICC
