Tour of England 2025
Matches: 3 ODI, 5 T20
Venue: England.

Not be many bunsen burners that time of year and the weather will not be what the Indians are used to.


Maybe playing indoors?



Actually, that has been tried before at the Docklands (now called Marvel) Stadium in Melbourne about 25 years ago. Australia played South Africa in August right in the middle of the Australian football season. Poor crowd attendances ensured the idea was scrapped.


With its retractable roof, it is mainly used for football, sporting events, and concerts. It is the home of the Melbourne Renegades in the Big Bash. It can hold over 50,000 for sporting events and more for concerts


Docklands Stadium



Think how many more cricket games in England would end in a result if you had a ground like this
