Gaddafi Stadium, International cricket stadium in Lahore, Pakistan.

The stadium features distinctive red hand-laid brickwork architecture with extensive arches, accommodating 60,000 spectators across multiple covered seating sections and modern facilities.

Established in 1959 as Lahore Stadium, the venue received its current name in 1972 when President Zulfikar Ali Bhutto dedicated it to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.

The stadium functions as the headquarters of Pakistan Cricket Board and primary home ground for national cricket matches, embodying Pakistan's dedication to cricket.

The stadium includes shops, offices, media facilities, floodlights with backup generators, and plastic seating throughout all sections for enhanced comfort.

The stadium recorded Pakistan's highest Test cricket total of 699 runs against India in 1989, marking a significant milestone in cricket history.
