Or am I wrong?

Reading the Telegraph sports section today, something jumped out at me. In an article on pages 8 & 9, Lancashire chief executive Jim Cumbes is quoted as saying that "There are already eight Test match grounds and the Rose Bowl has ambitions to be the ninth".

Eight? I make it seven - Lords, The Oval, Old Trafford, Headingly, Edgbaston, Trent Bridge and Riverside (Durham's ground). I presume he is not including Bramall Lane, Sheffield which hosted one test match in 1902, so what is his eighth ground?
