Zamir Jaffri Cricket Stadium is a cricket stadium in Jhelum, Pakistan. It is named after Jhelum's native poet Syed Zamir Jafri. The stadium is in close proximity[2] to Altaf Park which was built in 1994–95.
It used to be a local district-level stadium, but now the Pakistan Cricket Board has upgraded it for regional-level events.[3][4][5] Six extra cricket pitches have been prepared at the venue.
