Apologies, I thought you were going and had spares as well. Seems there are plenty of available tickets for these matches.

Yes, it's sad; New Zealand never seem to be as much of a draw as the other top international sides.

 

[Marco07]

I wonder if it’s as much to do with the draw the England team attracts at the moment.

and the dumbing down of the game with the likes of the Hundred.

Yeah, but THIS is 5-day Test cricket at Lord's!

I’ll be there Thursday. You going Guy?

 

[Guy]

I must admit I am tempted, where will you be (apart from the bar!)

Such an action packed sport, it has meal breaks......

Headingley 2019. I defy anyone to call that a dull 5 day Test match!

Going to be in the Pavilion but Coronation Garden over lunch and Harris Garden bar at times………. WhatsApp me if you go, would be great to catch up.

 

[Marco07]

I’ll be in the Harris harms room 9;30 on Thursday until play starts. I’ll be easy to spot as I will be the one not in red trousers

 

[MarkMas]

I still have just two tickets available for England v New Zealand at Lord's

2nd Day - Fri, 3 Jun - 2 x Grandstand Lower - £130 each

SOLD! (not on here, after all)

 

[MarkMas]

Anyone going to England v Ireland at Lord's this week?

Anyone going to England v Ireland at Lord's this week?

‘Fraid not. Will be at Lords Ashes though, before heading off to Asia for the summer.

Anyone going to England v Ireland at Lord's this week?

No, off to Ashes OT and ODI v NZ @ OT too.

 

[MarkMas]

Well, Sunday was quite exciting.

I couldn't go, so gave my tickets to my sons. Lucky really, otherwise I might have been in the Long Room getting attacked by angry Australians.

 

[Kiwibrit]

We were at Lords last few days…back home now but let’s just say that my voice has gone!

Two points about the Bairstow affair.
firstly when the rules were drawn up bouncers weren’t even considered fair and were to stop batsmen running up the wicket but in my view as no shot was played nor any attempt to gain a run it was against the spirit of cricket.
secondly once the Aussies had entered the sanctity of the pavilion they should have been left alone from abuse.
