PCA stadium, Mohali

The Punjab Cricket Association Stadium at Mohali, on the outskirts of Chandigarh, can accommodate 40,000 fans and former BCCI chief Inderjit Singh Bindra, now the ICC's chief advisor, has ensured the ground is well maintained.

The facilities in and around the stadium make it possibly India's best cricket venue and visiting teams especially like the bounce on offer.

A regular international venue, the Mohali stadium is ready to host three matches, including a semi-final. It hosted the Australia v West Indies World Cup semi-final in 1996.
