I've only been to the SCG to see a test match, but have been to do the MCG and I think the Gabba when i was about 9 or 10 but my memory is very hazy on that one.

Will be looking to add a lot of grounds over the years.....still plenty of time for me.

I've seen Test cricket at all the major five Australian venues.

And I've seen a ODI and a tour match at Bellerive.

I salute you sir Dave

Would love too. Have only seen test and ODI cricket at the WACA, but have watched footy at the MCG. I'd love to be there for a Boxing Day Test.

MCG and an ODI at the Gabba before they built the new stands. (1994)

 

[SOTS]

Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados
The ground in Castries, St Lucia (can't think of its name)
All the Aussie grounds,
The Oval, London

Cricket in the West Indies reminded me of how it was here not so long ago - take your own Esky, enjoy a few drinks, none of this low alcohol expensive beer with the supply monopolised by the venue.

MCG

I've also been to SCG and the Adelaide Oval, but not for Test Matches

Missed out on going to Eden Gardens this year mainly due to by own lethergic apathy

Fair point, I didn't notice the Test Match part of the question until after I posted. I saw St Lucia Vs Barbados there, so it was an international game at least!

Adelaide Oval
Gabba
MCG

 

[The Spornstar]

MCG (most years I go to at least a day)
Adelaide Oval (every day of the 96-97 West Indies Test)

Both great grounds, Adelaide is massively different to MCG but every bit as enjoyable. More of a cricket ground too.

Only been to the SCG for footy, never been to any of the others.

with regards to the aussie grounds, what do people think would make a perfect summer? that is, what would make for interesting contests at each venue?

eg.
v india in adelaide
v west indies in perth
v pakistan/sri lanka in sydney
