Arnos Vale Stadium

The stadium hosted its first ever international game on 4 February 1981. The match was an ODI between West Indies and England and was a close encounter which the hosts won by two runs.

The ground's maiden Test match came in 1997, when the West Indies played Sri Lanka to a draw, with Sri Lanka finishing on 233–8 chasing a target of 269 runs. The second Test held at the ground, in 2009, saw Bangladesh record their maiden Test victory over the West Indies by 95 runs. At the time the West Indies were without many of their leading players due to a dispute with the West Indies Cricket Board, so seven Test debutantes featured in the West Indian team.{{cite web |date=18 August 2010 |title=West Indies v Bangladesh 2009 |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/wisdenalmanack/content/story/473139.html |access-date=25 February 2018 |website=ESPNcricinfo}}{{cite web|title=1st Test, Bangladesh tour of West Indies at Kingstown, Jul 9-13 2009|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/westindies/engine/match/401071.html|website=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=25 February 2018}}
