About Greenfield International Stadium

Greenfield International Stadium, officially The Sports Hub, is Kerala's biggest cricket and football ground, opened on 26 January 2015 opposite the University of Kerala's Kariavattom campus. The university owns the land, and Kariavattom Sports Facilities Limited and the Kerala Cricket Association operate it. It hosted the 2015 SAFF Championship football before its first men's international, a rain-shortened T20I against New Zealand in November 2017. India beat Sri Lanka here by 317 runs in an ODI in January 2023, women's T20Is against Sri Lanka followed in December 2025, and the most recent international was the ODI against West Indies on 27 September 2026, which India won by eight wickets. Every match of the Kerala Cricket League is also played here.

Tips before you go

Reach at least two hours before the first ball. The highway between Sreekaryam and Kazhakkoottam slows to a crawl on match days and police usually divert private vehicles to designated parking grounds.
Check your ticket for the gate and stand before you leave; walking around the outside of the ground takes time.
Bags, power banks, bottles and outside food are normally barred at international matches. Read the organiser's banned-items list and carry the ID used for booking.
Evening matches end late. Arrange your ride back in advance or look for the special bus services that are usually announced for big games.
