Sher-e-Kashmir Stadium (Cricket)
Sher-e-Kashmir Stadium in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, is a cricket ground located in the Sonwar Bagh area and serves as the home venue for the Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association and state cricket team. Established in the 1980s, it has hosted two One Day International matches—India vs. West Indies in 1983 and India vs. Australia in 1986; but cricket activities were limited for many years due to political unrest and security concerns.
The stadium was used by the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) for nearly two decades, during which it also hosted political rallies by Indian prime ministers.
Renovation efforts have allowed the resumption of first-class cricket matches, with the stadium hosting Ranji Trophy games and the Kashmir Premier League final in 2021. The ground is known for its stunning location near the Zabarwan mountain range and the Jhelum River, offering one of the most picturesque cricket settings in India despite ongoing challenges in infrastructure and security.
