Rosedale was the name of a cricket ground in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The first recorded match on the ground was in 1887 when Rosedale played West Toronto.[1]

The ground held a single first-class match between a combined Canada and United States of America team against the touring Australians in 1913.[2]

The Australians won the match by the large margin of an innings and 147 runs.[3] The final recorded match held on the ground came in 1954 between Toronto and Yorkshire (not to be confused with the English county team of the same name).[1]
