Recently, the ICC Chairman announced the schedule for the upcoming T20 World Cup, and India will be the official co-hosts, alongside being the defending champions of the contest. The Shiv Sena MLA went on to criticize the ICC for selecting Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium as the venue for the T20 World Cup final.
Through his X handle, Aaditya Thackeray questioned the ICC for not having chosen the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai as a possible venue for the T20 World Cup final, especially after it had special significance for having hosted the 2011 ICC World Cup Final.
"Why not Mumbai? Wankhede will be the absolute best venue for a T20 World Cup final. Remember 2011?" Thackeray further raised questions.

"Expecting the @ICC not to indulge in politics and favouritism," said the young Indian politician
The Shiv Sena (UBT) MLA further highlighted the fact that the new stadium in Ahmedabad had already hosted the 2023 ICC World Cup, which India lost to the Australian side.
However, the sole reason for ICC to consider the ground as a possible venue was the grandeur of the Narendra Modi Stadium and it being the stadium with the largest seating capacity. After its inauguration, the Narendra Modi Stadium went on to be the largest cricket venue in the world, surpassing the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Australia.
