Lord’s Test causes ticket rush for the remaining matches of the Test series - Cricket News Update
The sensational end to the first Test between India and England at Lord’s has caused cricket fans in England to rally up in long queues to get tickets for the remaining three matches of the Test series between the two teams.
According to sources, tickets for the first four days of the second test scheduled to be played at Trent Bridge have already been sold and only the fifth day’s tickets remain available.
Giving details about the recent resurgence of cricket from seclusion, in England, a salesperson in The Oval box office said, “It's been a mad day of sales. There are no tickets left for the first, second, third or fourth day of the Test match. Availability
is very good for the final day; http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Cameron-James-Borgas-c49157 start at £15."
Fans in England have been perplexed by the outstanding performance of the home side in Test cricket, where the Poms have not only defeated the Australians, but are now looking deadly against India.
Speaking on the insurmountable interest of the people of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nottinghamshire-c826 County Cricket Club, Derek Brewer said, “We are expecting a great crowd and we are really looking forward to staging the match.
In my experience this is like the situation around the Ashes in 2005.”
On Monday, Lord’s saw a capacity crowd on the final day of the first Test, a game which was inspiringly won by the Andrew Strauss-led home side, as they handed a crushing defeat to tourists http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 by 196 runs.
Before the match, many Indian pundits had predicted a century by Sachin, which would have been his 100th, and bets had touched staggering amounts on the odds of the batting maestro scoring a ton.
However, Indian fans in London were left in dismay, when http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Chinnadupargea-Sachin-c50607, in the first innings fell after playing an innings of 34 runs and then managed to knock only 12 runs in his second outing, before the English pacers annihilated the Indian batting line-up with
some furious fast bowling.
