The Showground was a cricket ground in Bulawayo, Matabeleland, Zimbabwe, attached to the complex known today as the Trade Fair Showgrounds. Today the ground no longer functions for cricketing purposes. A single first-class cricket match was played there in February 1962 when Rhodesia played an International XI.[1] The International XI won the match by six wickets, with the International XI's Hanif Mohammad top-scoring with 80 and Rhodesia's Joe Partridge taking the best figures of the match with 4/54.[2] This remains the only first-class fixture played at the ground and additionally the only recorded match played there.
