Captain of Bhangra Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Is anyone from here going to any of the matches? I'll be at: Northamptonshire v Indians, Warm up match, Day 2 (Saturday August 6th) 3rd Test (Edgbaston), Day 3 (Friday 12th August) 3rd Test (Edgbaston), Day 5 (Sunday 14th August) Only T20 (Old Trafford), (Wednesday 31st August) 5th ODI (Cardiff), (Friday 16th September) I also have a shot at the 2nd Test (Trent Bridge), Day 2 (Saturday 30th July), as I'm employed by the main England Test Cricket Sponsors, but this is like a 50/50 chance. I'd have gone to more if I didn't have to pay double. (Married life, eh?)... Who'll be at the same ones as me?...
Sachinism Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 npower? or is it Lebara? :hmmm: Should be attending a few days at Oval and Lords and an ODI at Oval
Captain of Bhangra Posted June 30, 2011 Author Posted June 30, 2011 npower? or is it Lebara? :hmmm: Should be attending a few days at Oval and Lords and an ODI at Oval Financial/Debt analyst for the n-word's major corporate accounts. I've had a fair few Test match tickets from them before, on the house, but if they're further than Edgbaston, and India isn't involved, I usually give them away... Last Freebie I took up was Eng v SA at Edgbaston 2008. Saffers won from the brink of defeat, thanks to Smith's amazing innings, Trott was there celebrating with his (then) countrymen, and Vaughan retired (in tears) on TV the next day... Lords/Oval eh? Those tickets were the most popular. I was looking out for Lords ones myself, but will leave it for next time now...
Cricket Tragic Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Where are we playing our first practice match?
daryl1985 Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 I went to the England-Sri Lanka match on Tuesday. I think there are tickets available for days 4 and 5 at the Oval. I'm hoping to get tickets for those days, work permitting!
expoking Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Im going to day 4 of the first Test at Lords, and day 4 of the fourth test at the Oval. Fifth day tickets are always available so might go on the 5th day as well depending on how well it goes.
Captain of Bhangra Posted June 30, 2011 Author Posted June 30, 2011 Lots of Londoners, LoL. I could have applied for Lords tickets through work, but opted for Trent Bridge. Felt I'd have more of a chance of getting those, & it's just a 50 mile drive away for me... @Cricket Tragic, think the first practice game is v Somerset, & Strauss will be playing for them, to get his form back...

Oh yeah, I read about Strauss and even posted about it.
Cricket Tragic Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Coming for a t20 to my home town of Leicester :D The T20 is in Gunchester.
Serani Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 Not sure I have the money but I can get tickets for Edgbaston if I want.
Sachinism Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 The T20 is in Gunchester. I think he's talking about the warm-up T20 against Leicestershire
Cricket Tragic Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 I think he's talking about the warm-up T20 against Leicestershire Wow, how many practice matches are we playing? :hmmm: I read that county clubs were pushing for more practice matches against India since they can make a fair bit of money.
Serani Posted June 30, 2011 Posted June 30, 2011 btw anyone wanting a ticket for edgbaston [1st 3 days] send me a PM, Its sold out this is your only chance!
