Srikantadatta Narasimha Raja Wadeyar Ground (Cricket)
The Srikantadatta Narasimha Raja Wadeyar Ground, also known as Gangotri Glades Stadium, is a cricket stadium located on the University of Mysore campus in Mysuru, Karnataka. Named after Prince Srikantadatta Wadiyar, it has a seating capacity of about 15,000 and is set against the scenic backdrop of the Chamundi Hills and close to Kukkarahalli Lake.
The ground was developed starting in the early 1990s and officially came into cricket prominence after the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) signed a 20-year agreement with the university in 1997 to maintain and develop it. The stadium received a major facelift in 2007 with a new pavilion, making it suitable to host prestigious domestic matches like the Ranji Trophy.
It serves as the secondary home ground for the Karnataka cricket team, after M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore. The pitch is generally good for batsmen but also offers pace and bounce that assist fast bowlers. The ground is covered with Bermuda grass and is notable for its pleasant environment with trees around the boundary.
