M.A. Chidambaram Stadium May Be Renamed to Honour Venkataraghavan, Srikkanth and Ashwin
Chennai’s iconic M.A. Chidambaram Stadium is set to enter a significant naming conversation, with proposals to associate the venue more closely with three of Tamil Nadu cricket’s most distinguished figures: S. Venkataraghavan, Krishnamachari Srikkanth and Ravichandran Ashwin. The move would reflect a broader effort to formally recognise the state’s cricketing legacy at one of India’s most storied grounds. Any change, however, would carry both emotional and institutional weight, given the stadium’s deep historical identity and its central place in Indian cricket.
