If you count the countries that make up the UK as separate nations.

This is the 23rd country to host test cricket. Anyone able to name all 23?

Was just put to me on another forum I managed 21/23.

Two WI nations scuppered me, if I'd thought for longer I'd have probably got them. But gave myself a time limit.

I'm also at 21 and suspect the 2 I'm missing could be in the Windies (although I may have added one that isn't there). Also, not entirely sure which countries hosted Pakistan.

Do you have a link to the definitive list?

Surprising lunch scorecard when Ireland won the toss and chose to bowl... I saw the last half hour and the ball wasn't doing too much.

I missed the ninja edit and spent ages down a rabbit hole trying to find the test match that was played in Scotland.

In the States at the MLC. Nice little earner I suppose. Can't blame him for doing so, as I doubt he will be on much money in comparison to the big nations. Looks like a bit of a collapse and Zim may not get 250.
