The Bellerive Oval in Hobart is the newest Test venue in Australia, having first been used for the 2nd Test against Sri Lanka in 1989.

The home of Tasmanian cricket since 1987-88 having undergone major redevelopment in 1985.

It was in Hobart that Australia achieved their extraordinary 2nd Test victory over Pakistan in 1999-2000. Chasing 369 to win, Australia slumped to 126-5 only for Justin Langer and Adam Gilchrist to add 238 and take them to the brink of a famous win.
