India’s Ahmedabad to host 2030 Commonwealth Games: Presenting key details

**India’s Ahmedabad to Host 2030 Commonwealth Games: Key Details**

*By Rajdeep Saha | Oct 15, 2025, 9:30 PM*

India has been recommended as the host nation for the 2030 Commonwealth Games, with Ahmedabad proposed as the primary venue. This recommendation came from the executive board of Commonwealth Sport during their meeting on Wednesday. The final approval for Ahmedabad’s candidacy will be confirmed by Commonwealth Sport’s full membership at the General Assembly in Glasgow, Scotland, on November 26.

**Previous Experience**

India last hosted the Commonwealth Games in 2010. However, that event was overshadowed by issues related to poor planning, infrastructure delays, and corruption allegations. Despite this, PT Usha, President of the Indian Olympic Association (IOA), described hosting the centenary games as an “extraordinary honor” for the country. She emphasized that the 2030 Games will not only showcase India’s sporting prowess but will also support its broader vision of becoming a developed nation by 2047.

**Strategic Move**

Ahmedabad and Abuja were the only two cities bidding to host the 2030 Commonwealth Games. India’s selection of Ahmedabad aligns with a strategic plan to strengthen its bid for the 2036 Olympics. An IOA official noted that hosting the 2030 Games will be an opportunity to demonstrate India as a “reliable destination” for major international sporting events.

**Venue Preparations**

The newly inaugurated Naranpura Sports Complex in Ahmedabad, which hosted the Commonwealth Weightlifting Championship and Asian Swimming Championship earlier this year, is expected to be a central venue for the Games. Constructed at a cost of ₹825 crore, this state-of-the-art facility is a significant asset.

Other proposed venues include the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Enclave and the Narendra Modi Stadium. Unlike the planned multi-city hosting format for the 2036 Olympics, the 2030 Commonwealth Games will primarily take place in Ahmedabad, with possible events in nearby Gandhinagar.

**Evaluation Criteria**

The decision to recommend Ahmedabad was reached after a rigorous assessment by the Commonwealth Sport Evaluation Committee. Candidate cities were evaluated on parameters such as technical delivery, athlete experience, infrastructure quality, governance, and adherence to Commonwealth Sport values.

India’s strong sporting history and impressive performance at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games—where it finished fourth in the medal tally—were also highlighted as key factors in the recommendation.

**Reactions**

The announcement has been met with enthusiasm across India’s sporting community, signaling a new era for Indian sports on the international stage. Further updates, including official confirmation at the November General Assembly, are eagerly awaited.

How topreserve Osaka Expo Legacy

The Expo Association aims to reuse about 20% of the 84 pavilions, but so far, only a few projects have confirmed relocation. Among the most notable efforts is the “Blue Ocean Dome,” a pavilion designed with future reuse in mind. Other examples include Uzbekistan’s plan to repurpose pavilion materials back home and Pasona’s cutting-edge exhibit, which will move to Awaji Island.

Central to the legacy discussion is the fate of the “Grand Roof Ring,” a major symbol of the site. Part of this structure is expected to remain as a feature within a municipal park, preserving its presence for years to come.

Looking back, the 1970 Osaka Expo offers valuable lessons. Its iconic Tower of the Sun, once slated for demolition, was preserved thanks to a schoolboy’s heartfelt plea. The tower later earned designation as a national cultural property. Even former pavilions, like Cambodia’s, have been repurposed into community centers, demonstrating how Expo structures can gain new life in everyday use.

For many, the legacy extends beyond architecture. It is reflected in the inspiration the Expo provides—from young people developing a global outlook to children pursuing careers in engineering after visiting exhibits.

As Professor Hashi of Osaka Metropolitan University puts it, legacy should not be seen as a relic of the past, but as something that continues to shape the future. The true measure of Osaka 2025’s success, he says, will be how deeply it embeds itself into society—not just as a memory of a spectacular event, but as a catalyst for the next generation.

Afghanistan beat Bangladesh in 3rd ODI, complete clean sweep: Stats

**Afghanistan Complete Clean Sweep Against Bangladesh with 200-Run Victory in 3rd ODI**

*By Rajdeep Saha | October 15, 2025*

Afghanistan has sealed a commanding clean sweep in the three-match ODI series against Bangladesh, clinching the final game by a massive margin of 200 runs. The match, held in Abu Dhabi, showcased Afghanistan’s dominant performance both with the bat and ball.

Afghanistan posted a formidable total of 293 runs for nine wickets, before spectacularly dismissing Bangladesh for just 93 runs. This series victory mirrors Bangladesh’s recent T20I success over Afghanistan by the same 3-0 margin earlier this month, highlighting the competitive nature between the two sides in limited-overs cricket.

**Strong Start and Middle-Order Resilience**

Afghanistan’s innings began positively, with openers Ibrahim Zadran and Rahmanullah Gurbaz putting together a solid 99-run opening partnership. However, after Gurbaz’s dismissal, Afghanistan experienced a mini-collapse, losing four wickets for just 15 runs in 25 balls. Despite this middle-order wobble, a late surge from Mohammad Nabi ensured Afghanistan reached a challenging total.

Nabi’s explosive hitting in the final overs was the highlight of the innings. He smashed three sixes in four balls off Mehidy Hasan Miraz and followed that with a six and three boundaries against Hasan Mahmud, propelling Afghanistan past the 290-run mark.

**Key Performers with the Bat**

Ibrahim Zadran played a pivotal role with a brilliant 95-run knock, anchoring the innings. Meanwhile, Mohammad Nabi emerged as the chief architect of the late surge, scoring a swift 62 runs off just 37 balls. His timely assault transformed what looked like a par score of 250-260 into a commanding total, setting a tough target for Bangladesh to chase.

**Spin Magic Cripples Bangladesh’s Batting**

Afghanistan’s bowling was equally impressive, spearheaded by star spinner Rashid Khan. Rashid dismantled Bangladesh’s top order by taking three wickets in his first three overs, including the prized scalp of Towhid Hridoy on the very first ball of the innings. This early strike put Bangladesh under immense pressure.

Bilal Sami then dominated the middle and lower order with an outstanding spell, claiming five wickets to run through the Bangladesh batting lineup. His relentless bowling helped bowl out Bangladesh for a mere 93 runs, sealing a comprehensive victory for Afghanistan.

With this emphatic win, Afghanistan not only completed a clean sweep but also demonstrated their growing prowess in international cricket. The series victory will surely boost their confidence heading into future challenges.
