Adelaide is home to one of the world's great cricketing venues and soon it will become a hub for Australian cricketers.
A new hotel built on the eastern edge of Adelaide Oval is expected to host some of Australia's top players for their quarantine when they return home."We've negotiated for eight of those players to come here and do their isolation at the Adelaide Oval," Premier Steven Marshall said. Some of the big names include Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon and Kane Richardson – with the trio set to touch down on Friday.
Although most international arrivals can't leave their hotel room for 14 days, the eight cricketers will be allowed out for training.It's a test run ahead of the world-beating India side heading down under in November.
