Original – Lord's Cricket Ground (generally known as Lord's) is a cricket venue in St John's Wood, London. Named after its founder, Thomas Lord, it is owned by Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) and is the home of Middlesex County Cricket Club, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), the European Cricket Council (ECC) and, until August 2005, the International Cricket Council (ICC). Lord's is widely referred to as the "home of cricket" and is home to the world's oldest sporting museum.

Reason

There has not been a decent picture of Lord's cricket ground showing its famous pavilion (on the right in the picture), the modern media center (on the left above the stands) and the stands in one picture. I think this picture has decent clarity and has high EV.
