Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Ground, Cricket ground in Rajkot, India

Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Ground, also known as Municipal Corporation Ground or Racecourse Ground, is a cricket stadium in Rajkot, Gujarat, India. It has a small playing area and a pitch that favors batsmen, which has led to high-scoring matches in the past.

The ground hosted One Day Internationals from the 1980s to the 2000s. It was abandoned as an international venue after the Saurashtra Cricket Association built a new stadium on the outskirts of Rajkot in 2008.

The ground is a familiar spot for local cricket fans, who come here to watch domestic games and remember the big international matches of the past. Its old name, Racecourse Ground, still comes up in conversations among longtime residents.

The ground is in the central part of Rajkot, so you can reach it easily by local transport. It is best to visit on days when domestic matches are scheduled, as the venue is otherwise quiet.

In a 2009 match here, India scored 414 runs and Sri Lanka replied with 411, making it only the second One Day International in which both teams passed 400. The ground also has a small playing area that helps batsmen.
