The Nagaland Cricket Association Stadium or Sovima Cricket Stadium is a cricket stadium located at Sovima in the Chümoukedima District of Nagaland. It is the only cricket stadium in the northeastern Indian state of Nagaland.[1]
The ground has floodlights so that the stadium can host day-night matches.
It also has a branch of the National Cricket Academy so that players need not to travel to Guwahati and other places for training and coaching camps.[3]
The first match played on this ground was between the Under-16 Dimapur district team and the Sovima Youth Cricket Club. Dimapur defeated Sovima Youth Cricket Club by 68 runs in this friendly match of 50 overs in April 2012.[4]
