315 metre long arch
The stadium’s most notable feature is a 315 metre long arch, the longest single span roof structure in the world. It is 133 metres above the pitch at its highest point, which is taller than the Millennium Wheel.
But the arch is not just for show, it’s an integral part of the stadium’s design. It supports 60% of the roof’s weight. The roof can be partially closed during bad weather to protect the 90,000 spectators, or avoid heavy shadows across the pitch (which television cameras have difficulty coping with). It also opens up to give the pitch full natural light.
The new stadium has already won over some fans:

HIS DOUBLE CENTURY INCLUDES 25 -FOURS /3- SIXES/ONLY 56-SINGLES IN 147BALLS http://cricetnirvana.com/sachin
Just 147 balls later, Tendulkar set the record straight in emphatic fashion. A staggering 2,961 matches and almost 39 years after the first ODI was played - and remember, many ODIs in the early years featured innings of 60 overs each, which gave batsmen more scoring opportunities - the Little Legend finally became the first cricketer to score 200 in a one-dayer, propelled by a record 25 fours in one knock.
The landmark 200 came in the final over of the innings, though Sachin crossed the previous record of 194 in the 46th over; in the interim, several lustily-hit fours and sixes by M S Dhoni were accompanied by groans from millions of spectators desperate to see Sachin on strike
The big moment, though, finally arrived, crowning what is fast turning into one of Sachin's most productive periods with the bat. The last 12 months have seen him score 10 international hundreds: six in Tests - including four centuries in his last four Tests - and four in ODIs. Three of those 4 ODI tons - Wednesday's 200, the unforgettable 175 against Australia last November and the brilliant 163 in New Zealand last March - are among his four highest ODI scores. Only his previous highest score of 186, against the Kiwis, falls outside this golden patch.
