Senior officials from the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) recently met with Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to discuss the project, which aims to become the second-largest stadium in India, following the 132,000-seater Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The stadium will be situated near the upcoming Navi Mumbai airport and is expected to set new standards for sporting infrastructure and fan experience.
