The Greenfield International Stadium has quietly built a reputation as one of India most reliable T20 International venues. Known for its true bounce, fast outfield, and high-scoring potential, the stadium has delivered exciting cricket whenever international matches have been hosted here.
So far, only four T20I matches have been played at this venue, but India dominance is clear. The home side has won three of those matches, giving them a 75% win rate, while touring teams have managed just one victory.
With another high-profile T20I set to be played here, the ground numbers once again come into focus.

What Makes Greenfield Stadium Special in T20Is
The numbers show a balanced surface. Batters benefit from good bounce and pace, while bowlers who vary their lengths and speeds can still make an impact. Dew has rarely decided matches here, making toss results less influential.
India 75% winning record highlights how well the home team understands conditions, especially under lights.
Greenfield International Stadium may have hosted only a handful of T20Is, but it has already produced big scores, dominant Indian wins, and exciting individual performances. As India returns here once again, history suggests fans can expect fast scoring, confident batting, and a home side that knows how to win at this venue.
