'''Wankhede Stadium''' (pronounced [[Help:IPA/Marathi|[ʋaːnkʰeɖe]]]) is an international [[cricket stadium]] in [[Mumbai]], India.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.vice.com/ja/article/in-search-of-indias-football-culture-with-mumbai-fcs-yellow-brigade-3/|title=クリケットの街から眺めるインドサッカー界の未来|trans-title=The future of Indian football seen from the city of cricket|language=ja|website=vice.com|publisher=Vice Japan|first=Kit|last=Caless|date=19 February 2017|access-date=28 February 2023|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220128164820/https://www.vice.com/ja/article/ywqwyj/in-search-of-indias-football-culture-with-mumbai-fcs-yellow-brigade|archive-date=28 January 2022}}</ref> It is owned and operated by the [[Mumbai Cricket Association]] and is the home ground of the [[Mumbai Indians]]. It houses the headquarters of the [[Board of Control for Cricket in India]], the MCA and  
the [[Indian Premier League]].

The stadium is situated near [[Marine Drive, Mumbai|Marine Drive]] in the [[Churchgate]] neighbourhood. Several old cricket clubs are near the stadium, including [[Hindu Gymkhana, Mumbai|Hindu Gymkhana]], [[Parsi Gymkhana, Marine Drive|Parsi Gymkhana]] and [[Cricket Club of India]] (CCI).

The stadium has been host to numerous high-profile cricket matches in the past, most notably the [[2011 Cricket World Cup Final]], in which India defeated Sri Lanka and became the first country to win the Cricket World Cup on home soil. It hosted the last match of [[Sachin Tendulkar]]'s international career.

==History  ==

=== Previous stadiums ===
Mumbai has seen Test matches played at three different grounds. The [[Bombay Gymkhana|Mumbai Gymkhana]] ground hosted the first-ever Test in India, in 1933–34 against [[England cricket team|England]]. After [[World War II]], the [[Cricket Club of India]]'s (CCI) [[Brabourne Stadium]] – the second ground of the city – was used for 17 Tests.

=== Construction ===
Wankhede Stadium was built after disputes between the CCI, which owns Brabourne Stadium,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://cricketersbiography.com/largest-cricket-stadiums-in-the-world/|title=Top 10 Largest Cricket Stadiums In The World By Capacity|first=Muhammad Ali|last=Afzal|date=26 January 2024}}</ref> and the [[Mumbai Cricket Association]] (MCA) over the allocation of tickets for cricket matches.<ref name="ci">{{cite web | url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/india/content/ground/58317.html | title=Cricinfo: Brabourne Stadium | access-date=5 March 2011 |publisher=ESPNcricinfo}}</ref> This became severe after the Test between [[India national cricket team|India]] and [[England cricket team|England]] in 1973. At the initiative of [[S. K. Wankhede]], a politician and the secretary of the Mumbai Cricket Association, BCA built the new stadium in [[South Mumbai]] near the [[Churchgate]] station by appointing [[Shashi Prabhu|Shashi Prabhu & Associates]] as their architects and B.E. Billimoria & Co as the contractors. It was named after Wankhede in 1974.{{Citation needed|date=May 2023}} It was built in approximately 13 months and opened in time for the final Test between India and the [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]] in 1975.<ref name="Inglis2000">{{cite book|last=Inglis|first=Simon|title=Sightlines: a stadium odyssey|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PrwzAQAAIAAJ|access-date=20 May 2012|date=25 May 2000|publisher=Yellow Jersey|isbn=978-0-224-05968-8}}</ref> Since then, Wankhede Stadium has been the main cricketing venue in the city.

Wankhede Stadium staged its first Test in the 1974–75 season when the [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]] toured India; India lost by 201 runs. The Test also featured a crowd disturbance after a fan who rushed onto the ground to greet West Indies player [[Clive Lloyd]] was treated roughly by the police. India's first victory at the stadium was against [[New Zealand cricket team|New Zealand]] two seasons later. The stadium has been a witness to great innings like [[Sunil Gavaskar]]'s 205 against the West Indies and [[Alvin Kallicharan]]'s 187 in the same game in the 1978–79 series and all-round heroics like [[Ian Botham]]'s century and thirteen wickets in the Jubilee Test in 1979–80, which England won by ten wickets. The highest score by an Indian at the Wankhede Stadium is [[Virat Kohli]]'s 235 against England in 2016–17. Incidentally [[Ravi Shastri]]'s six sixes in an over off Baroda's Tilak Raj in [[Ranji Trophy]], en route to the fastest double-hundred in first-class cricket were recorded on this ground in 1984–85. His unbeaten 200 in 113 minutes off 123 balls with 13 fours and 13 sixes at this ground is the fastest double century in first-class cricket since the 2017–18 season when Shafiqullah Shafaq scored a double century in 89 balls.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.cricblogg.com/wankhede-stadium/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191230055306/https://www.cricblogg.com/wankhede-stadium/ |archive-date=30 December 2019 |title=Wankhede Stadium – CricBlogg}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.t20wclive.com/wankhede-stadium/|title = Every T20 record at the Wankhede Stadium &#124; Highest total to highest run-scorer|date = 13 October 2021}}</ref>

=== Reconstruction ===
Since ICC World Cup Cricket 2011 was to be hosted by India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka, and Mumbai was selected to host the final, it was decided to redevelop the Wankhede Stadium to suit the modern facilities and comfort of spectators.

The Managing Committee invited presentations from reputed Architects and shortlisted M/s. P.K. Das & Associates and M/s. Shashi Prabhu & Associates to jointly draw up a project for the redevelopment of the Wankhede Stadium. While redeveloping the Stadium, major changes were at the North end and the South end with better facilities for the spectators in terms of bucket seating, a large number of toilets, and food courts.

While MCA undertook the redevelopment of Wankhede Stadium, the ground was not available for domestic and international cricket until February 2011. To ensure that MCA did not miss out on the turn of Test and ODI matches and also to develop a healthy working relationship with the Cricket Club of India.

One of the highlights of the stadium is the suspended cantilever roofs. The Teflon fabric roof is lighter in weight and heat resistant. There is no beam support for the roof to ensure that the spectators will have a better view. On the roof, there are exhaust fans that suck the hot air from the stands and allow the breeze from the West to flow in. The stadium has 20 elevators for North and South stands.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.mumbaicricket.com/mca/Wankhede_Stadium.asp | title=MCA: Wankhede Stadium | access-date=21 February 2012 | publisher=mumbaicricket.com | archive-date=31 May 2014 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140531105312/http://www.mumbaicricket.com/mca/Wankhede_Stadium.asp | url-status=dead }}</ref>

The stadium has a capacity of 33,108,<ref name=":23" /> following renovations for the [[2011 Cricket World Cup]]. Before the upgrade, the capacity was approximately 39,000.<ref name="2013 capacity">{{cite web |last=Janardhan |first=Arun |date=17 October 2013 |title=Sachin's last Test: Wankhede braces for ticket rush |url=http://www.livemint.com/Consumer/PQR8O1AvaKtOF424UZSqRO/Tendulkars-last-Test-Wankhede-braces-up-for-ticket-rush.html |access-date=18 March 2018 |website=livemint.com}}</ref>

=== World Cup 2023 ===

Wankhede Stadium was proposed to be used as one of the venues for World Cup 2023. The up-gradation of the stadium is currently in works where [[Shashi Prabhu|Shashi Prabhu & Associates]] have once again been appointed to oversee the restoration of entire outfield. The matches were played in October and November 2023.

===Pitch===
The entire square is made of local red soil which gives extra bounce thus making batting slightly easier. The pitch over the years has generally favoured the batters more than the bowlers. However, the pitch came into serious criticism during the 4th test of [[Australian cricket team in India in 2004-05|Border Gavaskar Trophy 2004]] where the test match ended in just around two-and-a half days apparently resulting in India's win and was declared a "Minefield" by then Aussies skipper Ricky Ponting as the ball started turning very sharply right from the 1st session of the game. Generally, the pace bowlers get some help off the pitch here with the new ball due to sea-breeze flow along the stadium.
