The first major moment in the Motera Stadium's history came in 1983 as the Indian batting legend Sunil Gavaskar went past England's Geoffrey Boycott to register the highest number of Test runs at that time. At Motera, 1983 World Cup-winning hero Kapil Dev broke the record of New Zealand legend Richard Hadlee to become the highest Test wicket-taker.
