Could cricket ever be played at the National Sports Stadium? 80,000 capacity.

Haha....I mean, I guess? The dimensions are probably just about okay. With a drop-in pitch who knows? Someone's going to have to stump up an awful lot of money to ever make that happen though!

But HSC is just the greatest place ever

I'm guessing the field is in rather poor condition at the National Stadium, was just looking at a few soccer highlights from games there and it doesn't exactly look cricket-ready.

That stadium is seriously scary. Those huge stands vibrate when there's lots of people on them.
