Built in 2002, the Beausejour Stadium in St Lucia boasts of one of the
best cricketing infrastructures in the Caribbean. Its relatively short
life span notwithstanding, the Beausejour Stadium has already scored a
few firsts under its belt. On May 10, 2006, the Beausejour Stadium
hosted the first ever day-night One Day International cricket match in
the West Indies between Zimbabwe and the West Indies.
Because of the top-class infrastructure, the Beausejour cricket stadium
clinched the 'Blue Package' of the world cup matches consisting of all
of England's first round games and one semi-final. In total the stadium
will host 6 first round Group C matches and one of the semi-finals on
April 25, 2007.
