Ashes Tickets Sold Out

It didn’t take long after the first set of Ashes tickets went on sale for them to already be sold out – just a few hours. The Edgbaston test match was the first match tickets were available for, and even at the steep price of £75 all 20k odd have gone for the first three days at the end of July. I didn’t even realise they were available!

I had a right laugh at Edgbaston earlier in the year and it should be a cracker of a test to watch and a good place to enjoy your cricket. I’m sure everyone who goes will love it, even if we’re two-nil down when we get there (just being pessimistic as always..)

To be honest, I might just book some holiday off work, buy a nice new big tele and watch it that way (Ashes in HD anyone?!).

I got an e-mail from Edgbaston saying they were available for customers who had previously bought international tickets… shame they were capped at 2 per customer, still i got mine for the 1st day! Never been to an Ashes test before, can’t wait!!

Going to all 4 days for the Headingley test match, can imagine England regaining The Ashes in Gods Own County As W G Grace says in that Channel 4 ad, “Bring it on!”

Been to Edgbaston for the England-Aussies in the Natwest Triangular Tournament in 2005. Despite getting stung by a wasp and getting soaked in the electric storm, it was a great day to be had.
