    This is massive! For reference, the largest stadium in Jamaica only seats 30,000 but I guess with our population of just under 3 million people, we don't neee anything larger, ha! Thanks for sharing Andy!

      if i ever get there (hope springs eternal) I really want to take in a cricket game in Caribbean the stadiums I see at the T20 World Cup were mostly built for the 2007 50 Over World Cup and not as atmospheric as the ones from yesteryear but still would love to take in the atmosphere. I remember getting up early for school in 1991 I think it was to watch Australia get thumped by the West Indies with Patrick Patterson, Ambrose and Marshall coming in at a million miles an hour. Those were the days the grounds appeared on TV like caldrons without a spare space to stand or sit! thanks for watching!

    The facility is so big! I have never seen cricket before but I bet it is fun to watch.

    Andy we know nothing about cricket but this stadium looks huge. The tour is interesting you get to see behind the scenes too. Those long jumps whatttt that's unbelievable.
    The library looked fascinating I bet you enjoyed this tour.

    MCG is amazing. Its our wish to visit there someday and watch live match. Malborne has so much to offer and worth visiting for. Thanks for sharing the tour and motivate us more to visit there.

    This looks like a great tour! I actually have never seen a game of cricket played before (on tv or in person) but it looks like it would be a great experience in a place like this. That stadium is massive as well! Another thing to add to my list if I ever get to Melbourne.

    Cricket is definitely not popular in America but this looks like our stadiums for the other major league sports! It's incredible.

      The cricket T20 world cup was just partially held in the states you know!!! Thanks for watching:)

  • @AdventuresOfATravelingDon

    That is a huge stadium!!! I still need to learn the rules of cricket. I honestly have no idea about how the scoring works. Do they have concerts or anything else there or is it just used for cricket. Also when is the season for cricket?

    • @AndysWorldJourneys
      @AndysWorldJourneys  Před 8 dny

      yes as I said just a few weeks before filming this one Taylor Swift filled the place with 96,000 ! Thanks for watching!
