Five non-2011 World Cup Indian stadiums that can host matches of 2023 World Cup in India

#2 Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association, Dharamshala

HPCA Stadium, Dharamshala

The Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium is arguably the most beautiful stadium in India and is located in Dharamshala, Himachal Pradesh. The stadium was established in 2003 and has a seating capacity of around 23,000. This stadium is quite unique as it is situated at an altitude of around 1,450 m above the sea level. To reach the venue, one has to travel eight kilometers from Kangra Airport.

This stadium has also hosted a few home games of Kings XI Punjab. The first one-day international to be played at the HPCA Stadium was between India and England in January 2013. This stadium was also accorded the opportunity to host a few matches during the 2016 ICC World Twenty20.

The HPCA Stadium is expected to host some matches during the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup. However, the limited seating capacity could be a dampener when venues are being chalked out for crucial matches.
