Jawaharlal Navoday Vidhyalay Stadium

Jawaharlal Navoday Vidhyalay Stadium is a cricket ground near Una, Himachal Pradesh, India. The first recorded match held on the ground came in January 1999 when Bengal Under-16s played Madhya Pradesh Under-16s.[1] The ground later held a List A match in 1997 when Himachal Pradesh played the Services in the 1999/00 Ranji Trophy one-day competition. Following this match, a first-class match was played there between the two sides in the Ranji Trophy.[2] Nearly ten years later the ground held five List A matches in the 2008/09 Vijay Hazare Trophy.[3] During the competition the Services cricket team heavily criticised the grounds playing conditions, citing the outfield as bumpy and potentially dangerous. They also criticised its general facilities, including a lack of changing facilities, with both teams having to change in a partitioned tent.[4]
