Ahmedabad

Former England captain Buttler came in during the second over and expertly marshalled a chase of 204 in sapping heat in Ahmedabad.

There are several college stadiums in the United States which hold more than 100,000 people while the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, India, holds up to 132,000.

The win cemented India's place as the leading white-ball side in the world, coming after their victory in the T20 World Cup last June, and eases the pain of the defeat by Australia in Ahmedabad at their own 50-over World Cup 16 months ago.

While it does not go all of the way to banishing the pain of the defeat in the final at home in 2023, it provides more silverware for the likes Rohit and Kohli, who may not have continued in the format had they beaten Australia in Ahmedabad.

This one game has become a financial juggernaut, fuelling a parallel economy wherever it's played - Dubai, London, Ahmedabad - drawing fans who spend big just to be there.
