Hosts and grounds

Each edition of a big event has a host country, or two co-hosts, from the sides taking part, and it goes round their grounds as the real ones do. The group games are spread across them, the semi-finals go to the bigger grounds and the final is at the main one. A series or a tri-series moves from ground to ground in the host country. A nation playing anywhere in its own country is at home, with the crowd and the conditions on its side.

The Global Fifty Crown, the Summit Shield, the tri-series and Test cricket are part of the Edition Pass. The rest is free.
