The '''Andhra cricket team''' is an [[India]]n domestic cricket team representing the [[South India]] state of [[Andhra Pradesh]]. The team's main home ground is [[Dr. Y. S.

Rajasekhara Reddy International Cricket Stadium]] at [[Visakhapatnam]], while some home matches are also played at [[Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh|Anantapur]] and [[Kadapa]].<ref name="pundit">{{cite web|title=Andhra Pradesh cricket team|url=http://www.sportspundit.com/cricket/teams/1712-andhra-pradesh-cricket-team|publisher=Sports Pundit|access-date=7 July 2013}}</ref>

== Overview ==
The Andhra Cricket Association was formed in 1951.<ref>{{cite web |title=About ACA |url=http://www.andhracricket.com/aboutus# |website=Andhra Cricket |access-date=28 February 2021}}</ref> Andhra competed in the [[Ranji Trophy]] for the first time in the 1953–54 season, [[Captain (cricket)|captained]] by [[C. K. Nayudu]], who scored the team's first fifty in that match.<ref>{{cite web |title=Mysore v Andhra 1953-54 |url=http://static.espncricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/1950S/1953-54/IND_LOCAL/RANJI/MYSORE_AP_RJI_28-30NOV1953.html |website=Cricinfo |access-date=28 February 2021}}</ref> Andhra has competed in every Ranji Trophy season since, with the exception of 1961–62, when it was absent.<ref>{{cite web |title=First-Class Matches played by Andhra |url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Teams/0/12/First-Class_Matches.html |website=CricketArchive |access-date=28 February 2021}}</ref> It falls under the South Zone of Indian cricket.

After the 2019–20 season Andhra had played 326 [[first-class cricket|first-class]] matches, with 50 wins, 132 losses and 144 draws.<ref>{{cite web|title=Andhra's first-class playing record |url-access=subscription |url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Records/India/Firstclass/Andhra/Team_Records/Playing_Record.html|website=CricketArchive|access-date=28 February 2021}}</ref> In [[List A cricket]], Andhra had played 148 matches, with 49 wins, 97 losses and two no-results.<ref>{{cite web|title=Andhra's List A playing record |url-access=subscription |url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Records/India/ListA/Andhra/Team_Records/Playing_Record.html|website=CricketArchive|access-date=28 February 2021}}</ref>

Andhra has never featured in a [[Ranji Trophy]] final and has therefore never had a chance to participate in the [[Irani Trophy]]. In the 2007/08 season Andhra, captained by [[M. S. K. Prasad|Mannava Prasad]], achieved two wins out of six in the Elite Group of the Ranji Trophy, missing out of the semi-finals.<ref name="pundit" /> In February 2018, they reached the semi-finals of the [[2017–18 Vijay Hazare Trophy]], the first time the team had got to that stage of the Vijay Hazare Trophy.<ref name="AndSemi">{{cite web |url=https://www.wisdenindia.com/match-report/siva-charts-andhras-maiden-semifinal-foray/292878 |title=Siva charts Andhra’s maiden semifinal foray |access-date=22 February 2018 |work=Wisden India |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180223050541/https://www.wisdenindia.com/match-report/siva-charts-andhras-maiden-semifinal-foray/292878 |archive-date=23 February 2018 |url-status=dead |df=dmy-all }}</ref> In 2019-20 Andhra reached the Ranji Trophy quarter-finals, losing to [[Saurashtra cricket team|Saurashtra]], who went on to win the trophy.<ref>{{cite web |title=4th quarter final, Ongole, Feb 20 - 24 2020, Ranji Trophy |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/ranji-trophy-2019-20-1196777/saurashtra-vs-andhra-4th-quarter-final-1203610/full-scorecard |website=Cricinfo |access-date=28 February 2021}}</ref>
