The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is a cricket ground in Bangalore, India. It is the home of the Karnataka State Cricket Association and is a Test, One Day International (ODI) and Twenty20 International (T20I) venue. It has a capacity of 36,000 spectators. The ground has hosted 21 Test matches, the first in 1974 when India played the West Indies. It has also staged 24 ODI matches, the first of which was in 1982 when India faced Sri Lanka. One T20I has been played at the ground between India and Pakistan in 2012. Of the 24 ODIs played at the stadium, seven have been World Cup matches, with the stadium playing host to at least one match whenever the World Cup has been played in India.

Three centuries were scored in the ground's first Test match, all by West Indian batsmen, with Alvin Kallicharran becoming the first Test centurion at the venue. The record for the highest individual Test score at the ground is held by Pakistan's Younis Khan who made 267 against India in 2005. The highest Test score at the ground by an Indian batsman is 239 by Sourav Ganguly in 2007 against Pakistan, which is also his personal-best Test score.

The first ODI century at the ground came in the ground's maiden ODI in 1982, with Sri Lankan batsman Roy Dias making 121 against India in a losing cause. Rohit Sharma holds the record for the highest ODI score at the ground with 209 from 158 balls which he made against Australia in 2013. The ground has also witnessed the fastest World Cup century which came off 50 balls by Ireland's Kevin O'Brien against England during the 2011 World Cup.

As of November 2015, a total of 30 Test centuries and 13 ODI centuries have been made on the ground. Former India batsman Sachin Tendulkar, who has scored four international centuries at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, holds the record for most centuries at the venue.
