Ahmedabad will host the 2030 centenary Commonwealth Games with 15-17 sports, marking India's return after 20 years and boosting its Olympic ambitions.
- On Wednesday, Ahmedabad was formally confirmed as host of the 2030 Commonwealth Games after delegates of 74 Commonwealth member nations and territories ratified India's bid at the Commonwealth Sport General Assembly.
