Allan Border Field

First grade rugby league was played at the ground between 1909 and 1995 by the Fortitude Valley Diehards in the Brisbane Rugby League competition. The club won 15 titles during their tenure in the league, the most of any club, and produced future Queesnland captain and immortal Wally Lewis.

The first first-class match held at the ground was played between Queensland and a touring Pakistan team in 1999 during which, both Matthew Hayden and Stuart Law[4] made centuries as Queensland won the match by 112 runs.[5]

The venue hosted Australian domestic and List A matches in the early-2000s, including the 1999/00 Pura Cup Final [6] but, in later years, was restricted to tour matches between Queensland and international teams with the Gabba becoming the primary home of the Queensland Bulls.

In 2009, Pakistan A won in a three-match one-day series against Australia A [7] but, lost the subsequent Twenty20 match.[8]

Sheffield Shield was re-introduced in 2010 with a match played between Queensland and South Australia [9] and more games have been played since, including a match in 2013 between Queensland and Tasmania during which Jordan Silk made a century.[10]

In 2014, two four-day matches were played between Australia A and a touring India A team.[11] Naman Ojha made a double-century in that match. Mitchell Marsh, who scored 211, and Sam Whiteman, who scored 174, put on 371 runs for the eighth wicket, an Australian record and the second-highest eighth-wicket partnership recorded.[12] Both matches resulted in a draw.[13]

On 23 June 2014 it was announced that the field would jointly play host to the initial rounds of the newly sponsored Matador BBQs One-Day Cup in October.[14][15] In the first match, Josh Hazlewood took 7 for 36 against South Australia, the third-best bowling performance in Australian domestic one-day history and the best by a New South Welshman.[16] Four days later, Jonathan Wells made the second-highest score in List A cricket at Allan Border Field, becoming just the fourth batsman to make a century in List A cricket at the ground. In the same match Sam Rainbird took figures of 5 for 29.[17] However, in the last match, Queenslander Joe Burns made 115 against South Australia in a 94-run victory, passing Wells' score and becoming the fifth batsman to make a century in List A cricket at the ground.[18][19]

On 8 July 2015 Victorian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis hit part-time medium-pacer Brendan Smith for six sixes in an over on his way to 121 from 73 balls while playing for the National Performance Squad in a 50-over match against a National Indigenous Squad. Smith, captain of the New South Wales under-17s, also sent down a wide meaning his one over of the match went for 37 runs. The game was a non-sanctioned practice match.[20]

On 23–27 March 2018 the Sheffield Shield final was played at the ground between Queensland Bulls and Tasmania Tigers the match was won by Queensland by 9 wickets it was Queensland's 8th title and first since 2011–12 Sheffield Shield season
