Managed to get a ticket for this next Thursday. 1st live sport since lockdown for me. Anyone else going?
I'll be going to at least the first innings. Forgot to get my leave request in though, so think I'll be missing out the 2nd innings to go to work at 5.30 !!!
Oooo forgot that one
With Sri Lanka playing this poorly I think you might see it all!Quote:

I’ve had advert after advert sent to me to buy tickets for the games at Sophia Gardens this season, but I’ve got no appetite for watching meaningless games with half a side on rotation.
I know the days of international tours taking up a full season will never return, but they were real tours. Oh well I guess it’s time to take my rose tinted spectacles off and just enjoy watching the franchised cricket circus as it constantly travels around the world.
