Lord’s Cricket Ground (Image Credit- Twitter X) There is bad news for cricket lovers who watch test matches at Lord’s Cricket Ground, known as the ‘Home of Cricket’. Marylon Cricket Club (MCC), the organization that operates Lord’s Cricket Ground, has announced an increase in ticket rates for matches to be held at the stadium for the upcoming summer season 2025. So, after the increase in the ticket rates in the stadium, this decision of the organization is being severely criticized, because before this MCC had also increased the ticket rates of the test matches to be held on the ground against Sri Lanka and West Indies. But instead of benefiting from this, MCC suffered a loss because only 9 thousand people came to watch the match against Sri Lanka, which was less than one-third of the total capacity of the ground. However, the MCC has increased the ticket rates for the upcoming WTC final and the match to be held here during India’s tour of England next year. The organization believes that India’s tour after the Ashes series is an important tour, due to which this decision has been taken. There was a jump in the new ticket rates Let us tell you that during India’s tour of England, MCC has fixed the minimum ticket price for the match to be held at Lord’s Cricket Ground at 90 Euros, which is being criticized a lot. At the same time, the price of tickets for the main stands at the ground is between 120 Euros and 175 Euros. Apart from this, MCC has also increased the ticket price for the final match of the ongoing season of the World Test Championship (WTC) here. The price of tickets for the WTC final to be held at Lord’s has been fixed from 70 euros (6530 rupees) to 130 euros (12130 rupees). However, MCC Chief Secretary Guy Lavender has said in a recent statement that the organization is going to re-evaluate the new rates once again. (Note: 1 Euro – 93.32 Indian Rupees)

Rohit is also the highest run scorer for India in the tournament with 191 runs in 6 matches. Dhoni’s glimpse is visible in Rohit Sharma Team India is playing brilliantly under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, so far the team is undefeated with 6 wins in the tournament. Rohit Sharma is seen doing smart captaincy. Hitman is the captain of the bowlers. Bringing Akshar Patel in the death overs, getting Bumrah to bowl in the middle overs. All the strategies of Rohit have been amazing. We have seen a glimpse of MS Dhoni in Rohit’s captaincy. Let us tell you that after Dhoni, no Indian captain has been able to win the ICC trophy so far. Rohit has been seen changing the course of the match with his decisions in difficult situations.

Sreesanth said while talking on Star Sports, We always talk about Mahi bhai (MS Dhoni) and how we won the World Cup and his street smartness. I think Rohit has the same ability where he can surprise his teammates. He can suddenly call his teammates and say ‘be ready’. Rohit believes in what he feels inside his heart.
‘Moeen Ali is a player who can trouble us’: Former India player ahead of IND vs ENG second T20 World Cup semi-final
The semi-final match between India and England will be played on 27 June Moeen Ali. (Photo by Matthew Lewis-ICC/ICC via Getty Images) India and England (IND vs ENG) are going to face each other in the second semi-final match of the ongoing T20 World Cup today on 17 June. Let us tell you that this match between the two teams will be played at Providence Stadium in Guyana. In this match, India would like to take revenge of its defeat in the semi-finals of the last T20 World Cup by defeating England. So, before this match, a round of continuous statements is going on. Along with this, a new name has been added to this list, that of former Indian player and well-known cricket commentator Aakash Chopra. Aakash says that Moeen Ali can prove to be a threat to Team India in this match. Aakash Chopra made a big statement before the India vs England match Before the match of the Indian team against England, Akash Chopra spoke through a video uploaded on his YouTube channel – which player of the opposing team can pose a threat to us in this match. First of all, the two openers who have not been able to perform against left-arm spin bowling. After this Akshar Patel, you can focus more on him. You can also look at Ravindra Jadeja, he is facing a lot of problems against left-arm spin bowling. So from England, Harry Brook and Moeen Ali are two players who can trouble us, especially Moeen. Because he bowls off-spin, we have four left-handed batsmen, apart from Kuldeep Yadav and Arshdeep Singh. But we have so many left-handed players that Moeen Ali’s role can be important. If we look at spin bowling, Indian players play spin better, but Moeen Ali can prove to be dangerous. He is also the vice-captain of this team.
