In other cities hosting World Cup matches, various improvements are planned. Lucknow will see the laying of new pitches, Kolkata’s dressing rooms will be upgraded, and Dharamsala will feature an imported grass outfield. Additionally, a dedicated floor is being constructed in Pune to accommodate the tournament requirements.
Delhi’s stadium infrastructure is also undergoing upgrades to ensure a top-notch experience for players and spectators alike.
