The
Wanderers, Johannesburg
Built
in 1956, the New Wanderers became the third Test ground in
Johannesburg, when England played South Africa and won 131 runs.
That
season it witnessed the best Test bowling performance ever by a
South African, when Hugh Tayfield took 9 for 113 in the fourth
Test of the series.
An
intense atmosphere at the 27,000-seat stadium has led to its being
nicknamed 'The Bull ring'.
And,
as with England at Lord's, the national team tends to
under-perform at the national headquarters.
Pakistan
and Canada will use the city as their home base.
The
venue will play host to three matches:
Feb
11: Australia vs Pakistan
Feb
16: South Africa vs New Zealand
Feb
01: Kenya vs Bangladesh
