India’s love affair with cricket is beautifully reflected in its iconic stadiums that have witnessed some of the sport’s most epic battles. Cricket in India is more than a game; it’s a religion, a passion shared by millions. Over the years, countless young players have dreamt of representing the country, and a select few make it to the prestigious 15-member Indian squad, a testament to India’s depth of talent. Central to this cricketing culture are the stadiums, the hallowed grounds where legends have made history and memorable moments have unfolded.

Across India, almost every state and union territory has one or two cricket stadiums. However, only a few venues have had the honour of hosting Test matches, regarded as the game’s highest and purest format. As of late 2025, India boasts 30 such venues, with Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati becoming the newest addition after hosting its maiden Test against South Africa in November 2025.
Some stadiums have become synonymous with Indian cricket itself.
