===T20===
[[File:DY Patil IPL.jpg|thumbnail|DY Patil Stadium during an IPL match]]
In [[2010 Indian Premier League|IPL 2010]], the stadium hosted 6 matches including the opening match, the semi-finals, the 3rd place playoff and the final.
=== D Y Patil T20 ===
As we all know that Indians had their first real taste of the new, exciting T20 format when the Dr. D.Y. Patil Sports Academy (DYPSA) organized the country's first official T20 tournament in 2005. This Year the stadium hosted 14th D Y Patil T20 Cup. Reliance 1 Came as the champions of the tournament.
===Football===
It has hosted Football matches of [[Indian Super League]] for the club [[Mumbai City FC]], and the stadium hosted some matches of the [[2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup]] and will be used again for the [[2020 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup]] including the final.
==Infrastructure==
'''Redevelopment for FIFA U-17'''
The stadium underwent Rs. 30 crores worth of refurbishment, including changing the roof, building 16 emergency exit bridges, two additional dressing rooms and setting up four training grounds in the vicinity.
A 500 KW solar plant was installed to take care of more than 70 per cent of electrical requirements of the stadium as an initiative to minimize the unfavorable environmental effect of the stadium.
===Roof===
The stadium roof is made from fabric imported from Germany.
===Lighting===
There are diesel generators have been installed to guard against interrupted power supply during games.{{citation needed|date=May 2017}}
===Pitch and outfield===
For the ground, 200 tons of clay was imported from South Africa. The pitch was prepared based on the advice and guidance of Neil Tainton and John Klug from South Africa. Stadiums around India typically have outfields made from red soil. When it rains, the outfield tends to become sluggish and heavy. To minimise the interruption because of rain, the outfield here is sand based. A completely concealed underground drainage system helps quickly remove water. A practise ground with 10 practice pitches is also on the campus next to the main stadium.
