Douglas Jardine's England played the first ever Test match here in 1933-34, winning by 202 runs. The stadium is located at Chepauk, a few hundred meters from Marina beach along the Bay of Bengal, and is home to M.S. Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings.
The oldest, and arguably most famous cricket stadium in India - Eden Gardens is often referred to as the home of cricket in India. The atmosphere for this game (or in fact any game here) is sure to be raucous, and seeing England play at this iconic stadium will be high on many cricket supporters bucket lists.
England have played a T20 here once before, losing out to India in 2012, despite an explosive 56 from Alex Hales at the top of the order. The stadium hosted five games in the 2023 Cricket World Cup, including England v Netherlands, which Gullivers were there for. England won that game despite their overall poor performance in the tournament, largely thanks to a Ben Stokes ton and 3 wickets a piece for Adil Rashid and Moeen Ali.
The Wankhede was the venue of the 2011 Cricket World Cup final, when India became the first host country to win on home soil. It was also host to Sachin Tendulkar's emotional farewell to international cricket in 2013. The stadium is steep and imposing, and travelling supporters will certainly be taken aback.
