 Profile

Queen's Sports Club is Zimbabwe's second ground behind Harare Sports Club and a constant on the itinerary of any touring side. Situated close to the city centre, it is one of international cricket's loveliest venues with an old pavilion and surrounded by trees which give shade to spectators. Much of the ground consists of grass banking and its capacity of 9000 is more than enough to cope with demand. QSC became Zimbabwe's third Test venue in October 1994.

Travel

HSC is situated 10 minutes walk from the city centre or a five-minute taxi ride. Parking near the ground is limited.
