]]> India is not often thought of as a country with a rich sports heritage, but the fact is that this could not be further from the truth. Cricket reigns king in this South Asian country, and for anyone who has an interest in getting to know this bat and ball sport, India offers a wide variety of fascinating places to watch games.

Check out these three stadiums in major Indian cities where you should make time to see a cricket match!

Wankhede Stadium (Mumbai)

The home of the Mumbai Lions seats over 33,000 people and is one of the most famous grounds in all of India. Located right on the Indian Ocean shore, a 2011 renovation made this place one of the best places to see cricket on Earth without giving away any of its charm.

Eden Gardens (Kolkata)

The oldest cricket stadium in all of India, Eden Gardens opened in 1864 and still stands as the second-largest ground in the entire nation. You wouldn’t believe how rowdy things can get when the country’s national team plays here, as this is often the home of international matches.

Arun Jaitley Stadium (Delhi)

There is no tougher place for India’s opponents to play than the Arun Jaitley Stadium ground in Delhi, as they have not been defeated here in an official match in over 28 years. The Delhi Capitals also host their home matches here in front of an extremely passionate fan base.

]]> You might not know much about it, but did you know that the national sport of India is actually cricket? This South Asian country is crazy about cricket and turns out in droves to watch the national team and top teams from domestic leagues play.

If you find yourself in India, one of the most interesting things that you can do is visit a cricket ground to see a game. Here are three cricket grounds in India that you must visit.

Eden Gardens: Kolkata

The most iconic cricket ground in India is, without a doubt, the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. This fascinating and large stadium opened in 1864, over a century and a half ago! It’s the home stadium of the Kolkata Knight Riders and also sometimes hosts Indian national team matches.

Wankhede Stadium: Mumbai

The Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai is more modern but just as breathtaking as the previous entry on the list. It’s an architectural gem with capacity for just over 33,000 fans who show up to cheer on the Mumbai Indians.

Himachal Pradesh Stadium: Dharamshala

If the other two stadiums are notable for their size and importance, the Himachal Pradesh Stadium is a must-visit due to its spectacular surroundings. Located in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains, the Dali Lama sometimes attends games here and blesses the players.
