India-England 1st T20I Sees Record Crowd In Post Covid World
The T20 International between India and England at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Friday possibly saw the largest crowd at a venue ever since cricket resumed post Covid-19 lockdown with as many as 57,000 people, including volunteers and police, attending it, say local officials.
While there have been matches in various stadia around the world with limited crowd capacity, none has been able to so far match the attendance at the Motera stadium thanks to its sheer capacity -- it has a capacity of 1,10,000 out of which Gujarat Cricket Association has allowed 50% attendance.
