Adelaide Oval

The hand-operated scoreboard at Adelaide Oval on the first day of the Australia and New Zealand Test in November 2008, with Moreton Bay fig trees behind it and the spires of St Peter's Cathedral rising over the hill. Designed by Kenneth Milne and put up in 1911, the scoreboard is heritage-listed and still used, with numbers changed by hand from inside. A rebuild finished in 2014 lifted capacity to about 53,500 without losing this northern view, which is why so many fans rate it the prettiest big ground in the game.
