#9 The Arena by TransStadia, Ahmedabad - Gujarat Fortunegiants, Seating Capacity - 4,000
The newly inaugurated Arena by TransStadia in the city of Ahmedabad has a seating capacity of 4,000 in its indoor stadium. It was first used for the Kabaddi World Cup in 2016 and then made the home ground for Manpreet Singh’s Gujarat Fortunegiants. During their home leg in season 5, the Fortunegiants were undefeated in Ahmedabad. Of the 6 matches they played, Sukesh Hegde’s side won 5 and tied 1 match in the Arena.
The Arena by TransStadia also has an outdoor stadium having a seating capacity of 20,000. Manpreet Singh had surprisingly released the Iranian duo of Abozar Mighani and Fazel Atrachali for season 6 and went for a young, inexperienced team in season 6. Finished as the runners-up in season 5, the Giants may find it tough to replicate their last year’s performance with a young squad.
