BAA Ground

The BAA Ground (Burma Athletic Association Ground) was a cricket ground in Rangoon, Burma (today Yangon, Myanmar). The first and only recorded match on the ground came in 1927 when Burma played its only first-class match against the touring Marylebone Cricket Club. The match ended in a heavy defeat for Burma. Cricket in Burma (which was at the time administered as part of the British Raj) was a mainly British affair, with the game played by British officials. With Burmese independence in 1948, cricket became largely extinct in the country.
