Overview

Significance

Brabourne Stadium is India's first permanent sporting venue. It has hosted Test matches from 1948 to 1972, and was the venue for Bombay Pentangular matches from 1937 until 1946. In recent times, international cricket has returned to the Brabourne; it played host to the ICC Champions Trophy in 2006 and was the venue for the first Twenty20 International played in India in 2007. Brabourne hosted a Test match in December 2009 after 36 years, thus creating a record for the biggest gap between two tests at the same ground. The ground was home to the Mumbai Indians during the third season of the Indian Premier League in 2010. Several matches of the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2013 were held here. In IPL 2015 the venue was secondary home ground to the Rajasthan Royals.
