'''Green Park Stadium''' is a 32,000<ref>https://kanpurnagar.nic.in/tourist-place/green-park/</ref> capacity floodlit [[cricket stadium]] located in [[Kanpur]], India, and home to the [[Uttar Pradesh cricket team]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://matchpredictions.in/green-park-kanpur-tickets-prediction-highlights-schedule/ |title=Archived copy |access-date=7 May 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171206144015/http://matchpredictions.in/green-park-kanpur-tickets-prediction-highlights-schedule/ |archive-date=6 December 2017 |url-status=dead }}</ref> The stadium is under the control of the Sports Department Uttar Pradesh. It is an international cricket stadium in [[Uttar Pradesh]] (another one in [[Lucknow]]) that has regularly hosted international cricket matches in both Test and One Day format. The stadium hosted the 500th test played by the Indian team. It also organized four Vivo [[Indian Premier League|IPL]] matches, on 19 and 21 May 2016 and 10 and 13 May 2017. As of 19 August 2017 it has hosted 22 [[Test cricket|Tests]], 14 [[One Day International|ODIs]] and 1 [[Twenty20 International|T20I]]. It is situated near the river [[Ganga river|Ganga]].

It was named after British lady Madam Green who used to come here for horse riding. The stadium is nicknamed as 'Billiards Table',<ref>http://m.jagran.com/local/uttar-pradesh_kanpur-city-news-hindi.html</ref> and is also nicknamed as 'Woolmer's turf' in the memory of late cricket coach and player [[Bob Woolmer]] who was born in McRobert Hospital opposite to the stadium.

==History==
The Green Park Stadium is named after Madam Green who used to practice horse riding here in the 1940s. It is located in the Civil Lines area in the north east part of Kanpur city near the banks of the river Ganga, which flows just behind the stadium.

This is the only stadium in India where a student gallery is available. Green Park has the largest manually operated scoreboard in the world.{{citation needed|date=December 2011}} It also has video screens that are used during international matches.

India's first Test win over Australia in December 1959 was at the Green Park ground. This was also the first match to be played on a turf wicket here.<ref>http://www.rediff.com/cricket/2008/apr/10biks.htm</ref> Off-spinner [[Jasubhai Patel]]'s 14 wickets were instrumental in ensuring India's win.

In 1958/9 [[Subhash Gupte]] took nine West Indies wickets in an inning for 102 runs, and had Lance Gibbs – the only batsman he missed – dropped by wicket keeper [[Naren Tamhane]].

Since 1957 India has lost only twice at Kanpur, to the [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]] on both occasions, when [[Subhash Gupte]]'s dream spell was overshadowed by [[Wes Hall]]'s 10 wickets in 1958 and later when India's [[1983 Cricket World Cup|1983 World Cup]] euphoria was cut short by [[Malcolm Marshall]]'s fearsome bowling. The most runs scored were by [[Gundappa Viswanath|Gundappa Vishwanath]] (776), [[Sunil Gavaskar]] (629) and [[Mohammad Azharuddin|Mohammed Azharuddin]] (543). The most wickets taken were by [[Kapil Dev]] (25), [[Anil Kumble]] (21) and [[Harbhajan Singh]] (20).{{citation needed|date=November 2017}}

The ends are known as the Mill Pavilion End and the Hostel End. These are named after the Elgin Mill and [[DAV College, Kanpur|DAV College]] which are close to the stadium.

The pitch at Green Park has traditionally assisted the spinners and there have been some great performances by the likes of [[Jasu Patel|Jasubhai Patel]] and Subhash Gupte. Lakshmi (Gulee) is the head of Women Cricket Division.
