'''Keenan Stadium''', is a [[multi-purpose stadium]] and an International Cricket Stadium in [[Jamshedpur]], [[India]]. It is currently used mostly for [[cricket]] and [[association football|football]] matches. It is also known as a venue for [[archery]].

The stadium is named after [[John Lawrence Keenan]] a former general manager of the [[Tata Steel]]. The stadium is situated in Northern Town area of [[Bistupur]] and is owned by [[Tata Steel]]. It has a capacity of 19,000 people.

Since being built in 1939 the ground has hosted [[Ranji Trophy]] matches for the [[Bihar cricket team|Bihar]] now [[Jharkhand cricket team]]. The venue staged its first international match in December 1983 when [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]] beat [[India national cricket team|India]] in a [[One Day International]].

The ground has staged a further nine One Day Internationals, of which India won but one, the most recent in April 2006 when [[England cricket team|England]] beat India by five wickets. This stadium became infamous for the crowd turning violent and throwing crackers on field during India against West Indies match in 2002/03.

Sourav Ganguly scored a 100 to help India win its only match here. Former Indian captain [[MS Dhoni]] has played many matches for Jharkhand in this stadium. He spent much time in this stadium in his early days when JSCA stadium was not built in Ranchi, and also featured in [[M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story]], the biopic on Dhoni.<ref>http://www.avenuemail.in/entertainment/ms-dhoni-biopic-shooting-starts-at-keenan-stadium/84630/</ref>
