sweetleftpeg 0 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Sport of Kings. As much as I'd want Durham to get it, I think it's more important to get it back at Headingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob W 0 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 No Ashes Test will be played at Durham for the foreseeable future The English Cricket authorities have long term contracts with Lords, Oval, Trent Bridge, Headingly and Birmingham - - the only one that is a bit dodgy is Manchester IIRC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wanted to be David Boon when I was a lad, so I used to stand with my hands in my pockets, occasionally shouting 'come in' and eating pies.

Dr Gloom 22193 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 headingly is a right shithole. no suprise it's struggling to continue hosting tests. durham is a nice ground but it needs some bigger stands if it's ever going to become a first class test venue. i like the new stands they've made at trent bridge. lords has the tradition but edgbaston and the oval arethe best for atmosphere. i at edgbaston for the final morning of the ashes test last year. it was unbearable but the atmosphere was different class. it was more like football than cricket.

Rob W 0 Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 The Oval is a bugger for getting around behind the stands tho' They've extended the ground right up tot eh wall almost and its areal scrum trying to get a drink I liek Trent Bridge mesel - Headingley IS a dump and Lords is full of wankers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sima Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 (edited) Tests have been mainly rotated around 6 grounds for years now and continue to be.
