Ahmedabad has been recommended as the proposed host of the 2030 Commonwealth Games on Wednesday. The final decision will be taken by the Commonwealth Sport’s Executive Board on November 26 at the body’s General Assembly.
India was facing competition from Nigeria, but the Commonwealth Sport has decided to “develop a strategy for supporting and accelerating” the African nation’s hosting ambitions for future Games, including consideration for 2034.
“The Executive Board of Commonwealth Sport has today confirmed that it will recommend Ahmedabad, India, as the proposed host city for the 2030 Centenary Commonwealth Games,” a press release from Commonwealth Sport.
“Amdavad (also known as Ahmedabad, in the Indian state of Gujarat), will now be put forward to the full Commonwealth Sport membership, with the final decision taking place at the Commonwealth Sport General Assembly in Glasgow on 26 November,” it added.
India had hosted the 2010 edition in New Delhi.
