ODIs at Birmingham
Address: County Cricket Ground, Edgbaston Road, Edgbaston, Birmingham,
West Midlands, B5 7QU.
Telephone: 0121-446-4422
Capacity: 17500
Home Team: Warwickshire.
A very well-developed and maintained ground, Edgbaston traditionally hosts the first Test of the England summer.
The home of the chocolate giants Cadbury's, Birmingham is that anomaly -- a thriving industrial and commercial city that has managed to retain its natural beauty. Thus, the region reportedly has more canals than Venice, more parks than any other city in Europe, six million trees and counting, and, famously, the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra.
