Rajasthan Royals skipper Shane Warne was extremely pleased with the `` largeness of the ground '' after his team 's two - run win over Deccan Chargers. `` Michael Lumb 's slog to deep mid-wicket found a fielder. Now, if this was M.A. Chidambaram Stadium or M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, then that ball would have landed in a taxi going to the team hotel. We need big grounds like these, '' Warne said. It has 80 - yard straight boundaries and 85 - yard square boundaries, which makes it one of the largest grounds ( in terms of playing area ) in the world.
