Edgbaston chief disappointed at 2013 Ashes snub

The chief executive of Warwickshire County Cricket Club has said that he is disappointed that Edgbaston has not been chosen to stage an Ashes Test in 2013.

The venue has instead been selected to host one-day internationals against Australia over the next two years, as well as an Ashes Test in 2015.

"Whilst we are disappointed not to have been awarded an Ashes Test match in 2013 we should remember the Aussies will play ODIs at Edgbaston in 2012 and 2013," said Colin Povey.

"In addition, we can now look forward to an Ashes Test Match in 2015."

The full list of venues for the 2013 and 2015 Ashes series was released today (Thursday).
