Yeah but Indian stadiums are very small(except for kolkata)

 

[andrew_nixon]

The above list is grounds that HAVE been used for ODIs. Certainly in the English list, one of those grounds doesn't even exist any more.

And this list does not show at all which country has the highest grounds.

 

[vibs89]

Well gold369 the stadium is medium not small for u r kind of infomations

 

[sachinisgod]

well that list does not show that India has a far lesser no of test grounds...perhaps as many as Australia or England...

But I disagree with gold in that the Indian grounds are small...the following grounds have a capacity of more than 40,000 people...
1) Eden Gardens, Calcutta
2) Chepauk, Chennai
3) Chinnaswamy, Bangalore
4) Wankhede, Mumbai
5) Sardar Patel Stadium, Ahmedabad
6) Mohali

perhaps Feroz SHah Kotla in Delhi too...sure all of them have more capacity(and most of the time attendance) than all the grounds Britain...also most of them are comparable to the Aussie grounds in terms of size...

 

[gold639]

No...what I meant was that the other Indian stadiums in that list were small.Of course,India do have big stadiums,but the other Indian ones in that list were small.

 

[sachinisgod]

well frankly, i donno abt most of the others' sizes too...I have watched a India WI onedayer in Baroda...its pretty ok...and others too might be...but one thing is for sure...on the smallest ground in India, if there's a test match being played and India playing well then its almost a certainity that the attendance would be far more than 19000(today's attendance in Adelaide)...sometimes it robs the whole crowd of the fun though...also I forgot to add in the above list of "pretty big" Indian grounds

Green Park - Kanpur(poor facilities though)
Gwalior stadium(whatever is the name)...

and of course barring the main Aussie grounds in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Brisbane and Adelaide...the rest of them too would be in that category of small...right?

 

[vibs89]

So who has the highest cricket grounds India,England or Aussies

 

[fardin]

i would go with aussie's' but i heard they are making a new cricket ground in aussie's that has about 1million set's not sure about it' but i heard in new's

 

[andrew_nixon]

So who has the highest cricket grounds India,England or Aussies

I haven't managed to find a list of the highest cricket grounds, but I'll try and look.

Are you talking about highest as in highest above sea level or highest as in which is the tallest... I'm not quite sure.

 

[gold639]

Lol I think he means highest number of cricket grounds.

 

[andrew_nixon]

I don't think that would be possible to research, you'd have to count every single ground in every single country, which would be almost impossible.

 

[sachinisgod]

thats right...its a tedious exercise and a futile one too...why do we need to know how many grounds does each country have...well yesterday I found out that the ground in my university campus where I used to go for university sports activities was used for Ranji Trophy in the 1990's...if someone were to look into all these grounds in India, Australia and UK then its gonna take him quite a number of years...
