Sharjah has a great number of unofficial cricket pitches! Most weekends one can see a wicket set up on an open patch of sand with a batsman, bowler, a number of fielders plus several supporters turned out for an afternoon’s entertainment.
Sharjah Cricket Stadium (532 2991) is the only venue hosting International cricket in the Middle East. The cricket season runs from mid-September to the end of May. The local and Bukhatir League matches are organized by the Sharjah Cricket Council and two international tournaments are hosted by the CBFS, in March/April and October/November respectively. Night Cricket is held annually, during the Holy month of Ramadan. The stadium is available for hire. Contact the stadium for details of membership, forthcoming events and hire charges.
