List of Lancashire County Cricket Club grounds information
Old Trafford hosted Lancashire's debut home match in first-class cricket and remains the club's primary ground.
Lancashire County Cricket Club is one of the eighteen member clubs of the English County Championship, representing the historic county of Lancashire. The club was established on 12 January 1864 and has competed in first-class cricket from 1865, List A cricket from 1963 and Twenty20 cricket from 2003.[A] Unlike most professional sports, in which a team usually has a single fixed home ground, county cricket clubs have traditionally used different grounds in various towns and cities within or close to the county for home matches, although the use of minor "out grounds" away from the club's main headquarters has diminished since the 1980s.[1][2]
Old Trafford in Manchester has played host to the club's first home fixtures in all three formats of the game; in first-class cricket in 1865 against Middlesex; in List A cricket in 1963 against Leicestershire; and in Twenty20 cricket against Yorkshire in 2003. Lancashire have played home matches at fifteen different grounds, but have played the majority of their home fixtures at Old Trafford, which also hosts Test, One Day International and Twenty20 International cricket matches. Two matches in the 2020 Bob Willis Trophy had to be played at 'neutral' venues due to Old Trafford being used for International cricket during the COVID-19 pandemic and the need for a bio-secure bubble.
