In fact, it has been decided to build the world's 3rd largest cricket stadium in Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan. The Rajasthan Cricket Association will build the stadium in 100 acres at a cost of about 350 crores. The viewership of this stadium will be more than the existing stadiums in India, but less than a stadium with a capacity of more than one lakh spectators built in Ahmedabad, India.

The Rajasthan Cricket Association will provide a capacity of meeting 75 thousand people in this stadium. In such a situation, it will be the world's third and India's second-largest stadium in terms of seating capacity. The first major stadium in the world is ready in Motera, Ahmedabad, while the second one is located in Melbourne, Australia. The viewership of both these stadiums is above one lakh. However, the Motera Stadium is yet to be inaugurated.

The Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Stadium, built-in Ahmedabad, has a seating capacity of 1 lakh 10 thousand, and the stadium of Australia has 1 lakh 2 thousand people. In this regard, the design of the stadium has been prepared in the meeting of officials held in the presence of Dr. CP Joshi and President of the Association of Rajasthan Cricket Association Vaibhav Gehlot. These officers have also given information about what will be special in it.
