Italian Cricket Championship Clubs
Fair warning: I generated enough in OOTP to have 16 teams if expansion is ever on the cards. I've only selected 8 for now, though.
The three international stadiums to start will be Florence, Milan and Roma. A popular legend in Italian cricket is that Venice was originally likely instead of Florence, but the WCC failed to approve a floating pitch.

| Catania CC | Fiorentina CC | Genoa CFC | Napoli CC |
 |  |  |  |
| Il Verde, Catania - Poor. The definition of a village cricket ground. The groundsman spends most of his time checking football results. | Cosmo Parco, Fiorentina - Poor. Surrounded on three sides by trees, and on one side by 17th-century architecture. A candidate for the world's most costly 6? | Stadio Luigi Ferraris, Genoa - Excellent Unlike the other seven clubs, Genoa (or at least a version of them) actually exist. Makes finding a ground pic easier. | Campo Rurale, outside Naples - Normal No room was found in Naples for a ground, so instead the team plays in what used to be a wheat farm an hour from the city. |
| Milano CC | Roma CC | Turin CC | Veneto CC |
 |  |  |  |
| Stadio Berlusconi, Milan - Excellent. Milan are bankrolled by a certain political figure who also bought their new international stadium's naming rights. | Stadio Olimpico, Roma - Normal. (The big boundaries hinder batsmen, but due to its dual purpose nature, the track is usually flat.) | La Ovale, Turin- Normal. Some say they stole this name from the British, as they did with their football team colours. | Aquaparco, Venice - Poor. Veneto officials had to get... creative to make a usable pitch in the city. Please ignore that the picture is of a football field in Singapore. |
