The DY Patil Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium located in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra. Also known as DY Patil Sports Stadium, the venue was designed by Hafeez Contractor and officially inaugurated on March 4, 2008.

The magnificent stadium was the home ground for Indian T20 League franchise Team Mumbai in the inaugural edition of the tournament in 2008.

With a seating capacity of 55,000, the venue has hosted the Indian T20 League finals in 2008 and 2010. However, the venue is yet to host any international or domestic cricket matches at this world-class stadium.

The DY Patil Stadium was also the home ground for Indian Super League outfit Mumbai City FC. The venue also staged the final of the inaugural edition of the Indian Super League between Atlético de Kolkata and Kerala Blasters FC. It has also hosted the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup and has been chosen as the venue for the upcoming FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup final in 2022.

Apart from sports events, the likes of A.R. Rahman, Justin Beiber, Katy Perry and U2 have performed at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai.

The stadium will host 20 matches of the upcoming edition of the Indian T20 League this year. On that note, let’s have a look at the T20 records created at the DY Patil Stadium.
