It was here when Ireland’s Kevin O’Brien smacked the fastest century in the ODI World Cup (off 50 balls) against England. However, the pitch usually slows down as the match progresses which usually ends up assisting the spinners in the later stages of a match.

The highest total in ODI scored here was in 2013 between India and Australia (383/6). The highest run chase here was by Ireland when they went past England’s 327 by totaling 329/7.

It was here India captain Rohit Sharma blasted one of his double century (209). Sachin Tendulkar has scored the most runs here (534). This year, after the Indian Premier League (IPL), the stadium hosted all the matches of the Maharaja Trophy KSCA T20 tournament.
