Since the BCCI chose Bangalore as the centre for the [[National Cricket Academy]] in 2000, many budding cricketers have passed out of the academy housed on this ground. Chinnaswamy Stadium is also the home ground of the Bangalore franchise team, the Royal Challengers Bangalore. It was painted in red and yellow, the team colours of the Royal Challengers and also the colours of the Karnataka flag (cultural flag). This stadium also served as the venue for the [[Miss World 1996|1996 Miss World]] pageant, when it first time held inthe country.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1996/11/24/world/miss-world-crowned-as-indians-protest.html |title=Miss World Crowned As Indians Protest|newspaper=The New York Times |agency=Reuters |date=24 November 1996 }}</ref>


After the BCCI chose Bangalore as the centre for the [[National Cricket Academy]] in 2000, many budding cricketers have passed out of the Academy housed on this ground. This stadium also served as venue for the [[Miss World 1996|1996 Miss World]] pageant. The KSCA planned to increase the seating capacity to 70,000, as well as considered constructing a newer cricket stadium with seating capacity of 70,000–80,000. However, none of those plans have materialised as of now. Chinnaswamy Stadium is also the home ground of the Bangalore franchise team, the Royal Challengers Bangalore. The stadium was given a facelift for the first season of the IPL. It was painted in red and yellow, the team colours of the Royal Challengers and also the colours of the Karnataka flag (cultural flag). The crowds are electric during every season of the IPL and come out to support their home team in large numbers.

==Crowd==
The venue has 40,000 seats. It's ground is small thus it has small boundaries, its side boundaries are maximum 55-56 meters, due to it batting teams often score high totals there. It is evident by the fact that in [[2023 Indian Premier League]] edition, teams scored 210 plus runs on four and 170+ on three occasions in 8 innings played there. As per [[Royal Challengers Bangalore|Royal Challengers Bangalore's]] bowler [[Harshal Patel]] "It is hard to bowl at the Chinnaswamy. It is a small ground and the ball generally flies".<ref>{{cite news |last1=Sunam |first1=Ashim |title=Short boundaries big challenge: Harshal |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bengaluru/short-boundaries-big-challenge-harshal/articleshow/99701347.cms |access-date=7 October 2023 |work=The Times of India |date=23 April 2023}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{Cite news |title=ICC CWC 2023 smallest ground... |url=https://www.freepressjournal.in/ampstories/sports/icc-cricket-world-cup-2023-smallest-grounds-in-the-tournament |work=[[The Free Press Journal]] |access-date=7 October 2023}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=M.

The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is a cricket stadium in Bangalore, Karnataka, India. It is owned by Government of Karnataka and operated by Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA).[2]

Flanked by the picturesque Cubbon Park, Queen's Road, Cubbon and uptown MG Road, this five-decade-old stadium is situated in the heart of the city of Bangalore. It regularly hosts Test, ODI, T20I and first-class cricket matches, as well as musical, cultural events. The stadium is the home ground of the Karnataka state cricket team, Karnataka women's cricket team and IPL franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore.[3] It is owned by the Government of Karnataka and has been leased out to the KSCA for a period of 100 years.

Formerly known as the Karnataka State Cricket Association Stadium, it was later rechristened in tribute to Mangalam Chinnaswamy Mudaliar, a lawyer from Mandya and the founding member of the Mysore State Cricket Association.[4] He served the KSCA for four decades and was also president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) from 1977 to 1980, latter's National Cricket Academy also situated in the premises of this stadium.

It is the first cricket stadium in the world to use solar panels to generate a bulk of the electricity needed to run the stadium.[5] The panels were procured through the "Go Green" initiative of the KSCA.[6][7] In 2016 a water purification plant was added, [8] and by January 2017 a system of aeration and drainage was in place to avoid matches being curtailed due to a wet outfield.[9]

History

With generous patronage from the Government of Karnataka, the foundation stone of this stadium was laid in 1969 and construction work commenced in 1970. The stadium was first used for First-class cricket matches during the 1972–73 season. It earned test status during the 1974–75 season when the West Indies toured India.[10][11]

The Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) stadium, as it was known was later renamed as a tribute to M. Chinnaswamy Mudaliar, who was the BCCI President from 1977 to 1980 and had served the KSCA.[10][11] Born in Mandya in 1900, he was the founding member of the Mysore State Cricket Association and a lawyer by profession.[4] He helped by other eminent people, was instrumental in prevailing upon the Karnataka Government of Karnataka to allot the ground for cricket in the prime MG Road area in 1969.[12]

The first Test played at this stadium was on 22–27 November 1974.[11] Incidentally, this was the debut Test match for the West Indian batting giants Viv Richards and Gordon Greenidge. The West Indians led by Clive Lloyd crushed M. A. K. Pataudi's Indian team by a massive margin of 256 runs. India registered their first Test win on this ground against the touring English team led by Tony Greig in 1976–77. The first ODI match at this venue was played on 6 September 1982. India defeated Sri Lanka by six wickets in that match.

Floodlights were first installed at this stadium for the 1996 Wills World Cup. The first match played here under lights was the quarter-final clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan on 9 March 1996 in which India defeated Pakistan by 39 runs. In 2007, in the 3rd Test Match between India and Pakistan, Sourav Ganguly and Yuvraj Singh led a 300 run partnership fightback from 61/4, breaking several records. India's 365/5 at stumps was the highest first day score in India. The 300 run partnership was the highest partnership at the stadium and the highest left-hander batsmen partnership. Sourav Ganguly's 239 is the highest left-hander score.

Since the BCCI chose Bangalore as the centre for the National Cricket Academy in 2000, many budding cricketers have passed out of the academy housed on this ground. Chinnaswamy Stadium is also the home ground of the Bangalore franchise team, the Royal Challengers Bangalore. It was painted in red and yellow, the team colours of the Royal Challengers and also the colours of the Karnataka flag (cultural flag). This stadium also served as the venue for the 1996 Miss World pageant, when it first time held inthe country.[13]

Features

Karnataka state cricket association claim their stadium is world's only solar powered cricket stadium. They inspired to install solar system at the satdium from Germany's Freiburg football stadium, which is fully powered by solar energy. KSCA initiated the ₹4.5 Cr and 400 KW project in February 2015.[14]

The venue has 40,000 seats. It's ground is small thus it has small boundaries, its side boundaries are maximum 55-56 meters, due to it batting teams often score high totals there. It is evident by the fact that in 2023 Indian Premier League edition, teams scored 210 plus runs on four and 170+ on three occasions in 8 innings played there. As per Royal Challengers Bangalore's bowler Harshal Patel "It is hard to bowl at the Chinnaswamy. It is a small ground and the ball generally flies".[15][16][17][18][19]
