  • Hi,
    Thanks for that link.
    I've never been to the Dome. Does it have any internal columns?

  • Only the yellow pylons which go down to the ground, at a somewhat smaller diameter than their passage through the roof membrane

  • Enough to interfere with play?

    At the point they go through the roof it's ~209m between pylons at the Dome.

    On the ground it will be considerably less, can't find a definitive answer but the legs quite chunky and the feet protrude inwards quite a way.

    Looking at it might be ok though. Can't imagine you'd lose more than 20m at each end which would give an internal diameter of ~170m.

    In contrast the shortest diameter of the pitch at the Oval is ~140m. At Lord's it is ~130m.
