The Motera stadium, with a capacity of 110,000, has displaced the Melbourne Cricket Ground as the world's largest cricket stadium, and was inaugurated by US President Donald Trump during his visit to India in February. The refurbished stadium will host the final two Tests with the third to be played with pink balls under lights. Pune, situated about 150 kilometres from Mumbai, will host the final leg of the series consisting of three 50-over matches. The series will be India's first at home since South Africa's tour in March was called off midway through due to the pandemic. "The BCCI prioritises health and safety of both teams and will leave no stone unturned to make sure that the tour is held adhering to all safety protocols agreed by the BCCI and ECB medical teams," BCCI secretary Jay Shah said.
