The first Test of India and West Indies is being played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. In this ground, more than 1 lakh people can sit together and enjoy the match, equipped with modern facilities. But when the first Test of India-West Indies started on Thursday, almost the entire ground remained empty. Cricket experts were also surprised to see this view.

One reason for the seats to be vacant on the first day of the Test match may be that the match has started on the day of Dussehra. When very few fans were seen in the field, there was a flood of reactions on social media as well. India is in fourth place in the Test rankings, has played the final of WTC 2 times, while West Indies is the world number eighth team. People raised questions whether BCCI should have selected such a big ground for the match with the weak team.

Raising this issue on social media, a fan said that Test matches should be organized in such grounds where people want to watch red-ball cricket. At the same time, he also raised the question that Test matches should be done keeping in mind the easy system of tourism and tourism.

Virat Kohli has also given opinion

Virat Kohli has also raised his voice on this issue. This is the matter of 2019, when Kohli said that 5 places in India should have been fixed for Test cricket. Virat said that this will know where the touring team will play, as well as will help in dealing with the problem of low crowd.

In fact, BCCI organizes Test matches in the country to increase the reach of Test matches, but in the 21st century, this policy has not given any special boost to Test cricket in India.
