Ashes: Fifth Test Venue Confirmed; Hobart's Blundstone Arena To Be Hosts
Cricket Australia (CA) on Saturday officially confirmed that the Blundstone Arena here will host the fifth and final Ashes Test from January 14 after Perth's hosting rights were taken away due to stringent Western Australia (WA) border controls and tough quarantine rules.
Reports had emerged on Friday that Hobart would beat the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) and Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) but the confirmation came on Saturday from Cricket Australia CEO Nick Hockley.
