JSCA International Stadium Complex Ranchi T20 records: Ranchi Cricket Stadium T20 records and highest innings totals

International cricket has returned to Ranchi after just over three and a half months. Having last hosted an India-South Africa ODI in the second week of October, the city is all prepared to host an India-New Zealand T20I tonight.

The first of a three-match T20I series will only be the fourth such match to be played at the JSCA International Stadium Complex. Overall, it is going to be the 12th international match at this venue.

Interestingly, the last T20I here was also played between these two teams only. While New Zealand had lost its only Ranchi T20I, India have never lost a match in the shortest format here. Coming on the back of a six-match winning streak albeit in another white-ball format, the home team would be keen to extend the same to maintain their unbeaten T20I record at the JSCA International Stadium Complex.

Highest innings totals in Ranchi T20Is

JSCA International Stadium Complex is yet to witness a T20I innings total in excess of 200 runs. While India had won the first Ranchi T20I by batting first, their last two victories here had come whilst chasing a total. Speaking of the highest successful run-chase in Ranchi T20Is, the aforementioned second-highest innings totals is also the highest T20I run-chase.
