except the cricket museum is at the basin, it holds records for being NZ's oldest active cricket ground, over 100 yrs as a test venue, yes the cake tin was designed to host both cricket and rugby but it's not a test venue.
When all the stands are operational Basin can seat 15k with another 5k on the embankment. But I dont see it ever happening.
Yes i agree the sport history is important. But at what cost.
A total of three international test matches were played in NZ in 2025.
2 international test matches will be played here in 2026.
White ball cricket is now the norm, which is what the cake tin was built for.
But also agree don't see it ever happening.
