MCG, SCG, Gabba.

 

[cnerd123]

Jealous of all you guys. All I've managed to watch cricket at is Abu Dhabi stadium and Mission Road in HK

Saw a friendly game at Sharjah stadium too when I was little once.

 

[Burgey]

I presume you're a big UAE supporter as well then?

 

[Gnske]

The Gabba, the perfect experience.

I'll also count the Warks vs Middlesex FC match at Lords, just on the basis of the ticket price.

 

[the big bambino]

Gabba, WACA, SCG and Manuka Oval.

 

[stephen]

The Gabba, Adelaide Oval and the SCC (Stephen's comfy couch).

Been to the MCG a few times but never while a match is on.

3rd Test, Pakistan tour of India at Bengaluru, Mar 24-28 2005 | Match Summary | ESPNCricinfo

I was also there on day 2 of this match. Horrible result though.

 

[SeamUp]

I'm bog standard. I haven't watched any cricket outside my home province when I have left it. Maybe plan a trip for next years world cup now !

So for me it is just Newlands and Boland Park.

Newlands many many games.

Boland Park just a few domestic limited overs.

 

[J_C]

Just the 2 games at the Wankhede:

Tendulkar's farewell Test and the Test vs England in 2016.

 

[Victor Ian]

Some of you guys have the life!

Me, I've only seen cricket at the G and I've never been impressed with it, but then again, I hate crowds. I Would love to watch at that Indian ground, last series, with the mountain. Also the South African one with the mountain and after the last test, I think I could go for that ground with the band too. Any England ground would be great to watch cricket at, to experience the Barmy Army in all their glory as well as any West Indian ground where they play those tin drums. In fact, to be honest, I'd love to watch cricket at any ground that is not the G, because that means I am on holidays

I was there for day 3. Saw Sehwag getting his double. So it was a good day out.

Lord’s (Eng v Aus 2005, Eng v Pak 2006)
Basin Reserve (NZ-India, NZ-England, NZ-Sri Lanka, NZ-Bangladesh, NZ-West Indies)
Westpac Stadium (NZ-West Indies, NZ-England twice)
Eden Park (Zim - Ind)
Seddon Park (Zim-SA)
University Oval, Dunedin (NZ-SA)
Queen’s Park, Invercargill (Women’s T20)

Lord’s is great but I don’t like the elitism. My grandad was an MCC member which meant I was very lucky, but as a state comprehensive kid from Devon I always felt uncomfortable and self-conscious. It can be an unwelcoming place. In addition, I was there for the first day of the 2005 Ashes when there was a bombing attempt on the tube, which made the journey home a nightmare.

I love the Basin. It’s the best ground in the world and I was fortunate to live less than 2 minutes walk from it for a year. Westpac and Eden Park are meh though I’ve been in both when full for World Cup games and the atmosphere is pretty good. Seddon Park was fun because it was the World Cup and there was lots going on. The University Oval is pretty but it was bloody freezing when I went, and Queen’s Park is a nice ground but obviously not really an international one.

On a visit to Hong Kong last year I intended to watch HK v Nepal in an ODI at Tin Kwong Road but it was cancelled due to a typhoon warning, a source of disappointment to me and relief to my partner.

 

[Immenso]

Tests: Basin Reserve (loads), Eden Park (way back), MCG (2 tests).

ODIs & T20s: Basin Reserve and Westpac Stadium, Eden Park, Seddon Park.

I have watched games at Lords and SCG but weren't internationals.

Basin definitely my favourite.

 

[Immenso]

Seddon Park (for the NZ XI v World XI during the Richard Hadlee Testimonial Series in 1990)

I was there too.
I recall Ewen Chatfield hitting a 6, which blew my mind.
