The Srikantadatta Narasimharaja Wadiyar Ground, commonly known as Gangotri Glades Cricket Ground (Kannada: ಗಂಗೋತ್ರಿ ಗ್ಲೇಡ್ಸ್) and formerly known as the University of Mysore Platinum Jubilee Cricket Stadium, is a cricket stadium located in the Manasagangotri campus of the University of Mysore in the southern Indian city of Mysore, Karnataka,[1] named after Prince Srikantadatta Wadiyar.[2]
The Chamundi hills provides an idyllic backdrop, and the iconic Kukkarahalli lake is just a big-hit away. It has a seating capacity of about 15,000. It was constructed by the University of Mysore.
In 1997, the Karnataka State Cricket Association entered into a 20-year agreement with the university to develop and maintain the ground as part of its efforts to promote the game in smaller centres. It was in 2007 that a new pavilion complex was constructed and the stadium got a facelift, making it fit to host Ranji Trophy matches.[3]
This ground is the second home ground for the Karnataka Cricket Team after the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium. This ground is covered with Bermuda Grass.[citation needed]
