Holkar Cricket Stadium (Hindi: होलकर क्रिकेट स्टेडियम) is located in Indore, Madhya Pradesh. It was earlier named Maharani Usharaje Trust Cricket Ground, but in 2010, Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association renamed it after the Holkar dynasty of the Marathas that ruled Indore.[1] It has a seating capacity of around 30,000 spectators. It is also equipped with flood lights for night matches.[2] Virender Sehwag recorded the highest ODI score of 219 at this ground.[3] Gwalior's Roop Singh Stadium is a bit smaller than Indore's Holkar Cricket Stadium.[4]
The ground stages the majority of Madhya Pradesh's home matches in the Ranji Trophy.
