@callefc8@englandcricket There is a place called the Midlands and they have 2 tests.
Hampshire have invested in a shiny new stadium and they have their first ever Ashes test, with your geographical logic down there they could say every Ashes test since 1882 has been ''up North'
@bluelionman@AdamDurrant6@JamesMelville Bollocks. Lords, the Oval and Edgbaston are the premium grounds and most the country can get there easily, so they should be selected for every Ashes. Cardiff and Southampton are better grounds than Leeds and Manchester so why should they get priority.
