    Eden Gardens stadium

    Incorrect Answer

    Motera cricket stadium

    Correct Answer

    Wankhede stadium

    Incorrect Answer

    Feroz Shah Kotla stadium

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    Motera cricket stadium, the world’s largest cricket stadium, has been renamed from Sardar Patel Stadium to Narendra Modi Stadium.

    • Motera Stadium, is a cricket stadium in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
    • India’s Test against England is the first match at the brand new Motera, the name of the place, after it was refurbished and converted into a 110,000-seater facility, making it the biggest cricket ground in the world in terms of capacity.

    Naming it after a politician was in line with a decades-old practice in Indian sport, especially cricket.

    • Mumbai’s Brabourne and Wankhede Stadiums were named after individuals who were alive at the time. The same is the case with Navi Mumbai’s D Y Patil Stadium, Bengaluru’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium, and Chennai’s M A Chidambaram Stadium.
    • Mohali’s PCA Stadium was renamed after former BCCI and Punjab Cricket Association president I S Bindra in 2015.
    • The Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium in New Delhi was renamed Arun Jaitley Stadium in 2019.

    Hence option 2nd is correct.
