Queen's Park, Grenada

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Queen's Park is the name of a cricket stadium complex in Grenada in the Caribbean and was a location for the 2007 Cricket World Cup.

After being rebuilt in 2000, the new complex was badly damaged in October 2004 from a direct hit by Hurricane Ivan. The pitch is noted for being elongated towards the Pavilion end, giving a more baseball type look to the ground. The stadium was funded by the People's Republic of China.
