History
In March 2010, the Punjab Cricket Association announced that the planned township of DLF Mullanpur in New Chandigarh city of Mohali district is going to have an international standard cricket stadium spread over 41.95 acre at cost of ₹230 crore (US$29 million). It is named after the ninth and last ruling Maharaja of Patiala, Yadavindra Singh.[5][6]
From 2024, it is the home ground for the Punjab Kings for the Indian Premier League.[7]
On 11 December 2025 ahead of the second T20I between India and South Africa, the PCA named two stands of the stadium after former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh and World Cup winning captain Harmanpreet Kaur.[8]
Facilities
Accommodating up to 38,000 spectators, the new flood-lit stadium features a sophisticated herringbone drainage system, which facilitates water removal within 25-30 minutes of rain. The stadium's field is composed of sand instead of conventional soil, which offers better stability, but is more challenging to maintain. The venue has two international-grade dressing rooms with steam, sauna, and ice bath facilities with a fully equipped gymnasium.[7] There is a well-equipped media centre, modern lounges and turnstiles.[9]
