About Edgbaston

Edgbaston in Birmingham is one of England’s great Test venues, renowned for its loud, partisan home crowds that make it one of the most intimidating grounds for visiting teams. It is the home of Warwickshire County Cricket Club.

The ground has staged many famous matches, none more dramatic than the 2005 Ashes Test that England won by just two runs — the narrowest runs margin in Ashes history.

With its modern stands and raucous atmosphere, Edgbaston is regularly chosen for high-profile internationals and World Cup knockout fixtures.
