As the title says, what is the best wicket you have ever played on?

Mine was 2 years ago for the 3rds! Playing at Taunton Cricket Club, at the time Phil Frost the then Somerset groundsman was doing the pitches and it was superb!

Found out today that a week before I played there, there was a 2nd xi game between Somerset vs Essex played on the same ground with the likes of Grant Flower, Andy Caddick, Tony Palladino, Chris Wright, Max Waller etc....

I have played at Guildford, Bank of England and Beckenham - which I think are three of the best club tracks around. The met police ground at Imber Park used to be a really good pitch, but was pretty average when I played there this year.

Played on the Nursery Ground up at Lords. That's by far the best I've played on. Very true bounce.

Viv Richards stadium or The Stanford Ground. Stupidly nice grounds!!!

RoCo I have played at all three of those grounds too - Holmbery is wonderful, especially when Charles Colville isn't there!!! (not a track in the same league as some though).

[Canners]

I played with Charles's Son, Raoul Colville, Was a pleasant chap, Unlike his father, Only downside with the ground at holmbury, you need a 4x4 to get up the hill,

Chester Boughton Hall on tour was nice.

Nearer home it would be the centre pitch at Blackpool on a scorching sunday
