Boghall Cricket Club Ground is a cricket ground in Linlithgow, Scotland. The first recorded match held on the ground came in 1969 when West Lothian played Edinburgh Academicals.[1] Between 1995 and 1998 the ground hosted a number of touring teams in minor matches, which included matches against the Netherlands, Denmark and the touring Bangladeshis.[1] The ground held its first first-class match when Scotland played against Ireland in 1996. Two further first-class matches were played there, one in 1998 when Scotland played Australia A, and another in 1999 when Scotland played South Africa Academy.[2] The ground held its first List A match when Scotland played Yorkshire in the 1998 Benson & Hedges Cup. The following year Scotland played another List A match against the Nottinghamshire Cricket Board in the NatWest Trophy. The third and to date final List A match played at the ground came in the 2002 Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy against Dorset.[3] The ground is still used today by Linlithgow Cricket Club.[1]
