Britannia & Co. Restaurant

Open since 1923 and run by the Kohinoor family for four generations, Britannia & Co. in Ballard Estate is one of Mumbai's most beloved institutions and a mandatory stop for cricket fans visiting the city between Wankhede Test matches. The Berry Pulao, a spiced rice dish with imported Iranian barberries, is the signature, and the elderly owner's passionate cricket opinions are offered freely with every meal. Arriving early is essential — the queue is part of the experience.

Brabourne Stadium — Cricket Club of India

The Cricket Club of India's Brabourne Stadium is one of Asia's most elegant sports venues, a grand colonial-era ground that hosted Test cricket before Wankhede was built and continues to stage Ranji Trophy matches, women's internationals, and the occasional IPL fixture. The CCI's magnificent clubhouse, its history of hosting the world's great cricketers, and the old-world gentlemen's club atmosphere make it one of sport's most quietly distinguished institutions. Non-member access through match tickets offers a rare glimpse inside one of Mumbai's most exclusive sporting establishments.

Cricket Club of India

Founded in 1933 and home to the Brabourne Stadium, the Cricket Club of India is one of the most hallowed institutions in the sport's history — a venue where Don Bradman played and where Indian cricket's modern era was forged. The club's museum and pavilion preserve decades of photographs, trophies, and memorabilia, while Brabourne Stadium itself remains one of the most atmospheric cricket grounds in the world. Visiting during a Ranji Trophy match offers an intimate look at the game's grassroots in India.

Marine Drive Promenade

The Marine Drive promenade — Mumbai's Queen's Necklace — is the city's great democratic public space, where cricket fans, football supporters, and ordinary Mumbaikars walk the seafront after evening matches at Wankhede or Andheri Sports Complex in an atmosphere of collective urban contentment. The Arabian Sea breeze and the sweep of art deco buildings make the walk one of Asia's great urban experiences, and it has been the setting for World Cup victory celebrations and IPL trophy parades. No sports trip to Mumbai is complete without a Marine Drive evening walk.

Wankhede Stadium Cricket Tour

The Wankhede Stadium is where India won the 2011 Cricket World Cup under MS Dhoni's captaincy — a moment that stopped a nation of over a billion people. Home to the Mumbai Indians, the most successful IPL franchise, Wankhede is one of cricket's most atmospheric venues with a sea breeze rolling in from the Arabian Sea. Tours include the famous North Stand, the players' pavilion, and the pitch where Sachin Tendulkar scored his 100th international century.

Wankhede Stadium Fan Walk

Arriving early for a Mumbai Indians IPL match at Wankhede Stadium is an experience unlike anything else in world cricket — the Marine Drive approach lined with vendors, the blue-and-gold sea of jerseys, and the wall of noise from the North Stand ultras make even the walk to the gate a spectacle. The stadium's position overlooking the Arabian Sea creates a backdrop that has graced thousands of cricket posters. Go early, soak it all in, and hold onto your cap when the Paltan roar starts.
