How much did it cost?
ICC spent 30 million dollars i.e. about 248 crore rupees to build the modular stadium. This was the first modular stadium, which was built very beautifully. Everything from the pitch to the stands was assembled in this stadium. Those elements were used to build it, which could be easily dismantled. This was done so that less time is spent and money is not spent too much. The ground in Nassau was planted with Bermuda grass, which is used in baseball and football grounds.
