Bready Cricket Club Ground is a cricket ground in the village of Magheramason, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. The ground is owned by the Bready Cricket Club.

International cricket

In May 2015, International Cricket Council cleared the ground to host shorter format of cricket. The ground hosted its first international cricket match when Ireland played against Scotland in a series of Twenty20 International matches in June 2015.[1][2]

It was selected as a venue to host matches in the 2015 ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier tournament.[3]
