Forthill Cricket Ground is a cricket ground in Broughty Ferry, Dundee, Scotland. It is the home of Forfarshire Cricket Club and hosts matches for the Scotland national cricket team.{{cite web|url=http://www.forfarshire.co.uk/|title=Forfarshire Cricket Club|publisher=www.forfarshire.co.uk|access-date=19 October 2011}} It has been used for cricket since 1880, when the newly-formed Forfarshire played their first match against Glenalmond College there.{{cite journal | title=Cricket - Forfarshire V. Glenalmond. |journal=Dundee Courier |date=25 May 1880 |page=2}} Scotland first used the ground in 1913 when they played Northamptonshire.{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Grounds/24/1680_misc.html|title=Other matches played on Forthill, Dundee|publisher=CricketArchive|access-date=19 October 2011}}

The ground staged six first-class matches between 1924 and 1999. The first was in 1924 when Scotland played Ireland. The touring Indians played Scotland in a first-class match there in 1932. Almost twenty years elapsed before first-class cricket returned to Forthill, with Scotland playing Worcestershire in 1951. The ground later played host to the touring New Zealanders in 1978 and Ireland in 1992, before hosting its final first-class match when Scotland played the South Africa Academy.{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Grounds/24/1680_f.html|title=First-Class Matches played on Forthill, Dundee|publisher=CricketArchive|access-date=18 October 2011}} During the twentieth century the ground also hosted several other touring teams in non-first-class matches.
