Cricket

Box cricket for a weekday evening, or a full pitch for a proper weekend fixture — cricket is the most-booked sport on Turf 24×7.

Cricket on Turf 24×7

Most cricket booked through Turf 24×7 is box cricket: a netted, floodlit box with a synthetic surface, six or eight players a side, and an hour that starts and finishes on time. It is the format that fits around work, which is why weekday 7pm to 11pm slots go first.

For longer formats, a smaller number of venues offer full-size turf pitches suitable for 11-a-side fixtures. Those are mostly weekend bookings and are worth reserving several days ahead.

  • Box cricket boxes with full netting, from ₹600 an hour
  • Full-size turf pitches for 11-a-side fixtures
  • Floodlit venues for evening and late-night slots
  • Equipment hire available at selected venues

What to expect

Cricket facilities

Floodlights

Four-corner LED lighting with minimal shadow across the pitch — the thing that decides whether a 9pm game is worth playing.

Full netting

Boundary netting on all four sides and behind the keeper, so play never leaves the box and nobody spends the hour fetching the ball.

True-bounce surface

Short-pile artificial turf with even infill, so the bounce is predictable and quick bowling stays safe.

What to check before you book

  • Net height behind the keeper — low netting means stopping every few overs
  • Run-off space behind the stumps, if anyone in your group bowls quick
  • Whether the venue supplies bats, balls and stumps, or everyone brings their own
  • How strictly the slot either side of yours is enforced
