DY Patil Stadium Records & Stats | Navi Mumbai Cricket Ground
By CricketTaken EditorialPublished Cricket in India8 min read
On 2 November 2025 India's women won a World Cup for the first time, beating South Africa by 52 runs at the DY Patil Stadium. Three days earlier, on the same square, they had chased 339 against Australia in the semi-final — the largest successful chase in the history of women's one-day internationals. Two years before that they had beaten England here by 347 runs, the biggest victory ever recorded in a women's Test.
No man has played a Test, a one-day international or a Twenty20 international at the ground. That is the fact that organises everything else about it. Opened in 2008 in Nerul, designed by Hafeez Contractor for the DY Patil group and holding somewhere in the region of 45,000, the stadium was built for the Indian Premier League and has spent its whole existence being handed the fixtures that the Wankhede and the Brabourne Stadium could not take — including, twice, an IPL final.
The women's cricket came later and has turned out to matter more. Since December 2022 the ground has staged a Test, five one-day internationals, eight T20 internationals and half of the inaugural Women's Premier League, and the three biggest results in modern Indian women's cricket all happened on it.
The 2025 World Cup: a semi-final and a final
| Date | Match | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 20 Oct 2025 | Sri Lanka 202 v Bangladesh 195-9 | Sri Lanka won by 7 runs |
| 23 Oct 2025 | India 340-3 v New Zealand 271-8 | India won by 53 runs |
| 26 Oct 2025 | Bangladesh 119-9 v India 57-0 | No result |
| 30 Oct 2025 | Australia 338 v India 341-5 | India won by 5 wickets |
| 2 Nov 2025 | India 298-7 v South Africa 246 | India won by 52 runs |
The semi-final on 30 October is the outstanding match. Phoebe Litchfield made 119 from 93 balls and Ellyse Perry 77 as Australia reached 338, a total no side had ever run down in a women's one-day international. Jemimah Rodrigues then batted through for 127 not out from 134 balls and put on 167 with Harmanpreet Kaur, who made 89 from 88. India got there with nine balls in hand.
The final was a different kind of match. India made 298 for 7 — Shafali Verma 87 from 78 balls, Deepti Sharma 58, Smriti Mandhana 45 — and South Africa were 246 all out in 45.3 despite Laura Wolvaardt's 101 from 98. Deepti Sharma took 5 for 39 and Shafali, opening the batting and bowling four overs of off-spin, took 2 for 36 and the match award. It was the first global title won by any Asian women's side.
Across the five matches the ground produced two totals above 335 and no other above 300. Rodrigues made 227 runs at the ground during the tournament and was dismissed once; Mandhana made 212 from four innings, including 109 against New Zealand. The longer history behind the win is set out in the history of India's women's national team.
The 347-run Test
| India v England, Dec 2023 | Score | Key figures |
|---|---|---|
| India 1st innings | 428 | Shubha Satheesh 69, Jemimah Rodrigues 68, Deepti Sharma 67 |
| England 1st innings | 136 | Deepti Sharma 5-7 |
| India 2nd innings | 186-6 dec | Harmanpreet Kaur 44 |
| England 2nd innings | 131 | Deepti Sharma 4-32; Pooja Vastrakar 3-23 |
England lost twenty wickets in 63 overs across the two innings and the match finished inside three days. The margin of 347 runs beat Sri Lanka's 309-run win over Pakistan at Colombo in 1998 as the largest in women's Test cricket, and it was India's first Test win over England on home soil.
Deepti Sharma's nine wickets cost 39 runs in 13.3 overs — an economy rate of 2.89 and an average of 4.3, which is the kind of return that only happens when a side collapses twice. She also made 67 in the first innings. Sophie Ecclestone bowled 41.3 overs in the match for five wickets and finished on the losing side by the widest margin any Test side has lost by.
It remains the only Test of any kind played at the ground.
The women's T20 record
| T20 internationals at DY Patil | Result |
|---|---|
| Dec 2022 v Australia | Australia won by 9 wkts; Beth Mooney 89 not out |
| Dec 2022 v Australia | Tied at 187; India won the super over |
| Jan 2024 v Australia | India won by 9 wkts; Shafali Verma 64 not out |
| Jan 2024 v Australia | Australia won by 6 wkts |
| Jan 2024 v Australia | Australia won by 7 wkts |
| Dec 2024 v West Indies | India won by 49 runs; Jemimah Rodrigues 73 from 35 |
| Dec 2024 v West Indies | West Indies won by 9 wkts; Hayley Matthews 85 not out |
| Dec 2024 v West Indies | India won by 60 runs; India 217-4 |
Eight matches, three Indian wins, one tie settled in a super over, and a scoring range that runs from 130 to 217. Smriti Mandhana has made 419 runs in nine innings here at a strike rate of 139 with five fifties, which is more than twice anyone else's aggregate and the clearest individual record the ground holds in any format.
The December 2024 series against West Indies produced the two highest totals: India's 217 for 4 in the third match, built on Mandhana's 77 from 47 and Richa Ghosh's 54 from 21, and 195 for 4 three days earlier. Richa Ghosh's strike rate of 172 across eight innings is the highest by anyone with more than three innings at the ground.
The tie in December 2022 is the ground's oddest match. Australia made 187 for 1 with Mooney 82 and Tahlia McGrath 70 not out; India matched it exactly, Mandhana making 79 from 49; India then scored 20 in the super over and Australia managed 16.
Thirty-seven IPL matches and two finals
| Season | Matches | Principal tenant | Notable |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2008 | 4 | Mumbai Indians | the first IPL final, 1 June |
| 2010 | 6 | Deccan Chargers | the 2010 final, 25 April |
| 2011 | 7 | Pune Warriors India | Yuvraj Singh made 224 runs across the season here |
| 2022 | 20 | none — a neutral season | the 210-run opening stand |
Rajasthan Royals won the inaugural final here in 2008, chasing Chennai Super Kings' 163 for 5 and reaching 164 for 7 off the final ball; Yusuf Pathan made 56 from 39 and was named player of the match. Two years later the same ground staged the 2010 final, in which Chennai beat Mumbai by 22 runs — Suresh Raina 57 from 35, Sachin Tendulkar 48 in reply — to win the first of their titles.
| DY Patil IPL record | Figure |
|---|---|
| Highest total | Chennai Super Kings 216-4 v Royal Challengers Bangalore, 2022 |
| Lowest total | Deccan Chargers 82 v Royal Challengers Bangalore, 2010 |
| Highest score | Quinton de Kock 140 not out from 70 balls, 2022 |
| Best bowling | Jasprit Bumrah 5-10, 2022 |
| Most runs | Robin Uthappa 359 in fifteen innings |
| Most wickets | Dwayne Bravo, nine |
The de Kock innings came in the ground's last IPL match, on 18 May 2022. He and KL Rahul, who made 68 not out from 51, batted the full twenty overs for 210 without being separated — the highest partnership in the competition's history. Kolkata Knight Riders then made 208 for 8 and lost by two runs.
Bumrah's 5 for 10 nine days earlier was the best bowling anyone has produced at the ground, and Mumbai still lost that match by 52 runs after being bowled out for 113. Adam Gilchrist reached his hundred from 42 balls in April 2008 — the fastest of the inaugural season — and finished 109 not out from 47 as Deccan Chargers won by ten wickets in 12.1 overs. It is still the fastest hundred made at the ground.
Four things the DY Patil record shows
- It is the most important Indian ground with no men's international cricket. Thirty-seven IPL matches, two IPL finals, a World Cup final and a Test — and not one men's Test, ODI or T20 international.
- Its one-day scoring is extreme in both directions. The 2025 World Cup produced 338 and 341 in one match and 202 and 195 in another, on the same square inside a fortnight.
- India's women have won the ground's three biggest matches and lost most of the rest. Three wins in eight T20 internationals sits alongside a World Cup, a semi-final and the largest win in Test history.
- The IPL record belongs almost entirely to 2022. Twenty of the thirty-seven matches, both the 216 and the 210-run stand, and the best bowling figure all come from a single displaced season.
Sources and method
Every table above is computed from Cricsheet's ball-by-ball archive of matches at this ground, published under the Open Data Commons Attribution Licence and read in August 2026. That archive holds 37 IPL matches between April 2008 and May 2022, one women's Test from December 2023, five women's one-day internationals from the 2025 World Cup and eight women's T20 internationals from December 2022 onwards. It records no men's international at the venue, which is consistent with published fixture histories.
Women's Premier League matches played here from March 2023 are not covered by the archive used for these tables and are described from published results rather than counted into any figure.
Wickets are credited to a bowler only where the scorer attributed the dismissal, so run-outs sit outside every bowling analysis quoted. Aggregates, strike rates and economy rates are calculated from the deliveries themselves. Averages are shown only for players with more than one innings at the ground.
The claims that the 347-run Test win is the largest margin in women's Test cricket, that India's chase of 339 in the 2025 semi-final is the highest in women's one-day internationals, and that the de Kock–Rahul stand of 210 is the highest partnership in the IPL are checked against ICC and published competition records; they are not derived from the ball-by-ball data, which can only see this one ground. The 2008 opening, the architect, the Nerul location and the seating are descriptive: published capacity figures for the stadium vary between roughly 45,000 and 55,000 and none is used in a calculation here.
