'''ACA{{ndash}}VDCA Cricket Stadium''' (stands for '''Andhra Cricket Association–Visakhapatnam District Cricket Association Cricket Stadium''') is a multi-purpose stadium in [[Visakhapatnam]], [[Andhra Pradesh]], India.<ref>{{Cite web |title=ACA-VDCA Stadium |url=https://www.bcci.tv/venues/6/aca-vdca-stadium |access-date=2023-04-24 |website=[[Board of Control for Cricket in India]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Cricket Grounds and Academies - List Of ACA Stadiums |url=https://andhracricket.org/venues.php |access-date=2023-04-24 |website=[[Andhra Cricket Association]] |language=en}}</ref> It is primarily used for international [[cricket]] matches. The stadium has two-tiers and was designed to avoid any restricted views, eliminating pillars or columns which come in the field of view of spectators. The pitch is known to be batter-friendly.

==Ground profile==
The pitch assists spinners and the ball does not bounce much and hence, batting second is not always beneficial, though dew factor sometimes plays a significant role. The highest ODI Score here is 387 by [[India national cricket team|India]] against West Indies, 2019.

==History==
The stadium was established as ACA–VDCA Cricket Stadium in 2003.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Dr. Y.S.
