De Beers Diamond Oval, Kimberley

In South Africa if you think of diamonds, think of Kimberley, the scene of the "Diamond rush" of the late 1800s.

The first diamond, the 21.25 carat "Eureka" was picked up in 1866. By 1871 the most famous diamond mine in the world, the Kimberley Mine or Big Hole, the largest hand-dug excavation in the world, was in full operation as tens of thousands of diggers from all over the world rushed to peg out the whole area.

The entire hillock where they commenced their feverish digging quickly vanished soon to be replaced by a hole which eventually reached colossal proportions

Sri Lanka are based in the diamond capital of the world.

The venue will play host to three matches:

Feb 16: Pakistan vs Namibia
Feb 26: New Zealand vs Bangladesh
Mar 04: West Indies vs Kenya
