The ground that has hosted the most number World Cup matches is in England which would come as no surprise considering England has hosted 4 World Cups in 1975, 1979, 1983 & lastly in 1999. Mostly our guess would be Lord’s, London, since our victory in 1983 over there is still fresh in our minds, actually Lord’s has hosted 10 games and 4 of them finals but the right answer turns out to be Headingley, Leeds where the most matches have been played which is 12.
Here is a list of the matches played at Headingley:
1975 (3)
1979 (3) Pak won 8 wkts vs Can, NZ won 8 wkts vs
1983 (3) WI won 101 runs vs Aus, Pak won 11 runs vs SL, Eng won 9 wkts vs SL
1999 (3) Pak won 10 runs vs Aus,
