It's not major but Marrara Is just Marrara Stadium and Bundaberg Rum Stadium is also called Cazaly Stadium, not sure which one is best to use.
EDIT: I looked it up and it's officially these days called Cazaly Stadium so use that one.

 

[hondeyho]

Quite frankly that may be too bigger ask to do ALL those stadiums, it will take a very long time if we only have 4/5 people doing it.

We need to pick out the most important of those, I will do at least one stadium from each country, (hopefully). Also we need other information such as pitch size, so on my behalf for all the stadiums I hope to make.

England - Lord's Pitch Size - Medium

Australlia - MCG Pitch Size - Large

Pakistan - National Stadium, Karachi Pitch Size - ?

India - Bradbourne Stadium Pitch Size - ?

South Africa - Wanderers Stadium Pitch Size - ?

West Indies - Antigua Recreation Ground Pitch Size - ?

Bangladesh - Chittagong Pitch Size - ?

New Zealand - Eden Park Pitch Size - ?

Sri Lanka - Sinhalese Sports Club Pitch Size - ?

Zimbabwe - Queens Sports Club Pitch Size - ?

Others - Sheikh Zayed Stadium Pitch Size - ?

This is purely on my behalf, community help wanted and the stadium list needs to be shortened down. Some of those stadiums haven't been used since the 1990s.

If you're looking for the size of Eden Park, I would say it would be categorised as small. Being a rugby ground first and foremost it is rather small especially the square boundaries due to its rectanglular shape.

 

[jkartik]

Before researching on "ground size", we first need to finalize the stadiums..
to avoid any confusion.

Here is my shortened list.
i am pretty much confused as to which to remove more !

Do you need the Antigua Rec. ground, isn't it being knocked down.

 

[hondeyho]

Do you need the Antigua Rec. ground, isn't it being knocked down.

Yes it is, sorry. I think that we should include all 12 stadiums to be used in the World Cup 2007 - although it may be too much of an ask.

So in Antigua it is now the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.

I think Bellerive oval should also be included, they play quite a few tests there as well.

I dont think Bourda's being used for WC2007. They are building a new stadium.

 

[Brett_Lee]

And please can you please include the telstra dome. as the final australian stadium

Nah, if anything it should be Belerive Oval, considering that is Tasmania's home ground. No need for two grounds in Victoria.

True but what if they could do both!

Well, it depends on how hard you want to make the stadium creators work. Maybe extra stadiums will be released as patch updates or something.

How is Lords coming along now?
