Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka

The Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium, also called Mirpur Stadium, is an International cricket ground in Mirpur, a few kilometres away from the capital of Bangladesh
The ground was originally built for football and athletics and was hence rectangular in shape. To restore it to a shape suitable for cricket, a lot of renovation had to be done, and the athletics tracks had to be dug up. About 3 feet of soil was excavated to remove the red clay. PVC pipes were fit in before filling it up with rock chips and sand and then grass. The slope is even, a difference of 29 inches from the wicket to the boundary. The ground was fitted with floodlights in 2009; it is able to host day/night cricket matches.
