Greater Toronto Area Cricket Stadium is a proposed cricket ground in Greater Toronto Area, Ontario. The project was announced in 2014 by Canadian Premier League T20 chairman and convicted defrauder[1] Roy Singh.[2][3] The stadium is to have a capacity of 35,000 spectators and is to cover 150 acres including a practice stadium and indoor practice area. The ground will have floodlights so that the stadium can host day-night matches and is to have parking for 10,000 cars and 200 buses. The projected cost of the complex is $700 million.[4][5][6]
The stadium was to be completed by 2017, but as of 2016 no progress has been made towards obtaining a site or commencing construction.
