History

In 2006, Cambusdoon and Mannofield were Scottish grounds to be formally approved by the International Cricket Council (ICC) to host One Day International matches.

Cambusdoon is the home of Ayr Cricket Club and hosted three European Cricket Championship matches involving Scotland, Ireland and the Netherlands in August 2006. It also hosted two ODI matches in 2010 between Scotland and Afghanistan.[2]

In July 2012, Scotland's two ICC World Cricket League (WCL) fixtures against Canada were moved to Ayr Cricket Club after The Grange in Edinburgh was declared unplayable.

In February 2017, Cricket Scotland confirmed that the ground would host the 2015–17 ICC Intercontinental Cup match between Scotland and Namibia, scheduled to take place in June.[3]
