Sydney Cricket Ground
-
Stationed at Victoria Barracks in 1851, the British Army were told to take their bats and balls and entertain themselves on the empty land south of the barracks. Ever since, this site has been the spiritual home for millions of cricket-mad Sydneysiders. In January 1928, fans saw Sir Donald Bradman’s first-class cricket debut and, in January 2004, Australian test captain Steve Waugh took his final bow here. It has also hosted concerts by the Rolling Stones, Madonna and others, as well as the occasional Australian Rules football match.
