Wilson Road Recreation Ground is a cricket ground located along Wilson Road in Penal, Trinidad and Tobago.
The ground hosted its inaugural first-class match when Trinidad and Tobago played the touring India A cricket team in November 1999, with three further first-class matches being played at the ground. Two of these saw Trinidad and Tobago play the Leeward Islands in the 1999–00 Busta Cup and India A in the 2002–03 Carib Beer Cup, while a third match saw West Indies B host Barbados in the 2000–01 Busta Cup.[1] Trinidad and Tobago returned to the ground in February 2007, playing a List A one-day match there against the Windward Islands in the KFC Cup,[2] with Trinidad winning by two wickets.[3]
