Adelaide Oval

TIME : 2016/2/18 9:08:44

Hailed as the world’s prettiest cricket ground, the Adelaide Oval hosts interstate and international cricket matches in summer, plus national AFL football and state football games in winter. A wholesale redevelopment has boosted seating capacity to 50,000 – when they're all yelling, it's a serious home-town advantage! Guided tours depart from the Riverbank Stand, off War Memorial Dr: call for bookings.

Also here is the Bradman Collection , where devotees of Don Bradman, cricket's greatest batsman, can pore over the minutiae of his legend. Check out the bronze statue of 'the Don' cracking a cover drive out the front of the stadium.
