Berri Oval is a cricket ground in the town of Berri, South Australia, Australia.

The first recorded match on the ground came when South Australia Country XI played the touring West Indians in 1961. A number of Youth One Day Internationals were held at the ground in the late 1980s.

Having never previously held a senior cricket match, it was selected as venue for the 1992 Cricket World Cup, staging a One Day International between Sri Lanka and the West Indies. This match, which is also the only List A game to be staged there, resulted in a West Indies win by 91 runs.

Senior cricket hasn't returned to the ground since. An Australian Football League (AFL) preseason game between Port Adelaide and Adelaide was played on this ground in 2004.
