About Mombasa Sports Club Ground, Mombasa
A really small ground with a capacity of just 1,000, it has been the home ground of East Africa. The first ODI was staged here between Kenya and Bermuda on November 11, 2006. Formed in 1896, Mombasa Sports Club is the major venue outside Nairobi. Like the Canterbury cricket ground in London, this one too has a rare feature - a large mango tree within a few feet inside the boundary. It is also home to other sports including rugby, football, hockey, bowls, snooker, basketball, and most recently it has also hosted the Davis Cup tennis.
