5 international grounds in India that are ignored now

<p>

#3 Keenan Stadium, Jamshedpur

This multi-purpose stadium is located in Jamshedpur (Jharkhand) and is named after the former general manager of Tata Steels, John Lawrence Keenan. It has a capacity of 19,000 people. The stadium was built in 1939 and staged the first match in 1983. The game was played between India and West Indies. It has further hosted 9 more international matches and team India has featured in 8 of them. Although, the Indian team has been able to pull off a win in just one game.

However, the stadium has not hosted any international match in the last 12 years. One of the sublime reason behind it is the infamous crowd that threw crackers on the field because India lost against West Indies. Another reason behind it is the JSCA Cricket ground which has been constructed in Ranchi. Ranchi, being the hometown of the former Indian Captain MS Dhoni, fascinates the board more than any other ground.
