Have you seen the prices for the 2 India games and the SF at Edgbaston!!!! Surely people won’t pay those prices? Ridiculous.

I note that the tag line on the fixtures and ticket info page is "Are you in?"

At £70 for the cheapest ticket for England v India, the answer is absolutely not!

£18 will get you in to NZ v PAK or NZ v SA at Edgbaston; fancy a bit of either of those matches at that price more so than England I will be honest.

I just hope that the "premium" games are played to full houses, or the organisers are going to look very silly...

RB I hope the "premium" games ARE played to half empty stadiums - it's time the paying public stood up to being fleeced when it comes to watching all pro sport whether that be cricket football rugby tennis et al. But so long as those at the top of the game become overnight millionaires the fleecing will continue.
