Nick Russell: They are calling it the Lord's of East Africa. My favourite ground is the new pitch in Rwanda!
Here's the ground - you can listen to a feature about its construction from the BBC World Service.

Basically it is still raining. The 20-minute tea interval has been taken and should be coming to an end around now but that's not going to happen.
If you weren't with us earlier, just 17 balls have been bowled so far today due to the weather.
Still we wait.

It's fair to say this chat on your most picturesque cricket grounds has taken off despite the unsociable hour. We've even got a World Cup winner getting involved!

Image source, TwitterWe've had a couple of people mention Brockton Oval. Here's what Bradman had to say on the ground...
"The Brockton Point ground is the prettiest upon which it has been my pleasure to play.
"It is really a magnificent setting, and I wish that some of our more important games could be played under these ideal circumstances."

We started play at 00:30 GMT but just 17 balls were bowled before the rain came and the players have been off ever since.
No wickets fell and New Zealand added four runs.
To fill the time we're discussing the most picturesque cricket grounds you've played or spectated at.
You're very lucky. I've not yet made it to Newlands but it is number one on my list. The dream.

BBC Test Match Special
While it's raining, TMS listeners can now listen to the first part of an excellent documentary from a couple of years ago - Voices of Summer - celebrating some of the famous TMS names from the past such as John Arlott, Brian Johnston and Christopher Martin-Jenkins.
That's not quite what I was thinking David but each to their own...

David May: Most picturesque? A nameless estate in Norwich where match abandoned due to burned out fiesta on the square occurred. If you're into that sort of art that is.
I'm with you there, Jonathan.
I've not played at Bamburgh but I've been to the ground and agree it is something special.

Jonathan Wright: The most picturesque place I've ever played is here,at Bamburgh Cricket Club in Northumberland. It's just magnificent.
