What about that new Sardar Patel stadium? I believe it's overtaken the MCG as the largest cricket stadium in the world. Looking at pictures and videos of it, the structure is massive, though maybe the size of the ground itself makes it look a bit bigger, still a huge stadium regardless. I think I heard of some controversy behind it's construction, could be remembering that wrong.
Have you been to visit the ground?

I have never been to Ahmedabad. I go to stadium to watch IPL every year. I have seen lot of matches (IPL, World T20 2016, one test match) at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, amazing experience during my 4 years (2012-2016) stay there. I went to Bangalore and watched one IPL match there. IPL matches and Ind-Aus ODI match at Hyderabad where I have been living since 2016. Few domestic FC matches at Ranchi (my hometown) and one Champions trophy 2017 match at Edgbaston England, where I went as journalist. I am not a jurnoulist, but got invitation for that match.
MCG is one the places I want to watch cricket match. Stadium at Ranchi looks beautiful.
Dharmsala, Lords are other ones where I have to go sometime.
