The Ian Healy Oval is a cricket ground in the suburb of Wooloowin in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, named after the former Australian international cricketer Ian Healy.[1] In March 2021, it would have become a first-class cricket venue[2] by hosting a match in the 2020–21 Sheffield Shield season,[3] but the match was eventually abandoned due to rain.[4] Prior to the 2021–22 Ashes series, the ground hosted a warm-up match between England and the England Lions.[5]
