South Africa v Sri Lanka · Wanderers Stadium

South Africa's biggest cricket ground and its loudest. The steep, enclosing stands earned it the Bullring nickname, and the ball flies at altitude. It hosted the 2003 World Cup final and the 438 game in 2006. Sandton and Rosebank are 10 to 15 minutes away.
