Ghāzī Amānullāh International Cricket Stadium, Jalalabad (Pashto: د غازي امان الله نړيوال کرکټ لوبغالی) is an international standard cricket stadium in Afghanistan. It is located in the heart of Ghazi Amanullah Town, a new suburb of JalalabadinNangarhar Province.[1]

Construction of the stadium began in March 2010 when the foundation stone was laid by Minister of Finance and president of the Afghanistan Cricket Board, Omar Zakhilwal.[2] The project was developed on 30 acres of land donated by the developer constructing Ghazi Amanullah Town.[3] The first phase of construction, which took a year to complete, cost $1.8 million, and included the completion of the basic stadium.[2]Apavilion, accommodation for players and administrative buildings were constructed later.[2]

It is hoped that the stadium will be able to attract international teams to play Afghanistan, which is now a Full Member of the International Cricket Council.
