The Western Australia Cricket Association ground (WACA) was Australia's junior-most Test ground till Hobart's Bellerive Oval hosted the 1989 Test match involving the Sri Lankans. Today's third Ashes Test is the WACA's final big ticket Test match and, henceforth, high-profile international games will be held at the new Perth Stadium which has better facilities and a capacity of 60,000 as against WACA's 20,000.
