Elitist Cricket Ticketing Prices 16:36 - Jan 12 with 1978 viewsWoolfenthen

Got through on the ballot for tickets to the One Day Int. vs New Zealand in September at the Oval. However £95.00 a ticket is a bit steep, is this normal??

Absolutely standard. Lord's have pushed the prices up against Australia to levels that are downright greedy and I still didn't get any tickets in the ballot.

worth checking to see if any of the venues you can get to do a ticket exchange. I missed out on the Edgbaston ballot but a couple of months later picked 2 up on their exchange. They have some single tickets up for most days right now.

but yes, very expensive!

Completely normal.

Contrast that price to go and see a day of top-class international cricket, with the £125 to go and watch T20 finals day at Edgbaston...

Yes, suspect there might be odd ones available nearer the time. I'm annoyed with The Oval as well, lost the tickets I had last year after the Queen died but was promised priority in the ballot - only to get an option to buy Day 5 tickets only.

I ended up going for Ireland tickets at Lord's, and Ashes at Edgbaston.

Also just picked up two Day Five Ashes tickets at the Oval for £20 each. You never know...

7-8 hours of top-level sport and a day in the sunshine, supping at one of the best grounds in the world. Bargain!

Also, if you got in the ballot for those ODI tickets, you might be able to get Day Five Ashes tickets for £20.

Seems normal from what people say.

But also the price point does make it elitist at the same time.

Which is a shame, it forces people into a Sky Subscription and not watching Cricket in the flesh

The Hundred not that it's particularly local, is well priced at least

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

Last year I got to the Oval and Edgbaston on pretty much the only two rain days of summer. Think I saw about 2 hours.

not based on the prices it used to be not that long ago, but they sell out so people must have got the money.

though its probably why the away tours are so much more popular these days

That’s criminal.

Bought a family ticket (2 adults, 2 kids) to Days 1 to 4 of the 2021 Adelaide Oval Ashes Test for $80 AUD per day (£40 ish).

The difference between encouraging people to attend and exploiting those who do.
