Before the Riverside's promotion to Test status, Warwickshire's Edgbaston was the baby of the grounds on the regular rotation.
Test cricket was first staged at Edgbaston in 1902, but was an infrequent visitor in the ground's early days: only four Tests were played there in the next 27 years.
A period of significant renovation at the end of the 1990s produced the new Cricket Centre and the £2million Hollies Stand, and some of the most memorable moments of recent cricketing history have taken place here.
In 1994, Brian Lara amassed his world record 501 not out for Warwickshire against Durham, while in 1999 the ground hosted the famous tied World Cup semi-final between South Africa and Australia.
