Well, after last years 'one or two' lucky lucky 'Leg Before'... decisions that went your way, and meant you edged a finely balanced and fighting Ashes series, here is the schedule for the 2015 visit.... to these fine English shores... Home supporters- Time to get your memberships/registrations sorted, if you want to apply for your local favourite venue..... I shall be seeing the new look England 'killer squad' vs Sri Lanka in june (assuming it doesn't hammer down with rain...), I wonder if that Yorkshire home grown talent - Yohan Blake- will be a surprise england selection.....BBC Sport - Yohan Blake: Jamaican sprinter wants Yorkshire cricket chance Australia tour of England & Wales 2015 Investec Ashes Series Wed 8 – Sun 12 July 1st Test - SWALEC, Cardiff Thu 16 – Mon 20 July 2nd Test - Lord’s Wed 29 July – Sun 2 Aug 3rd Test - Edgbaston Thu 6 – Mon 10 Aug 4th Test - Trent Bridge Thu 20 – Mon 24 Aug 5th Test - Kia Oval NatWest IT20 Mon 31 Aug - SWALEC, Cardiff Royal London ODI Series Thu 3 Sept - 1st ODI (D/N) - Ageas Bowl Sat 5 Sept - 2nd ODI - Lord’s Tue 8 Sept - 3rd ODI (D/N) - Emirates Old Trafford Fri 11 Sept - 4th ODI - Headingley Sun 13 Sept - 5th ODI - Emirates Old Trafford The New Zealand cricket team will also being putting in an holiday appearance in England during 2015, perhaps the Scots can give them a game, just to keep em happy/busy - they wouldn't trouble the England (womens) cricket team..... p.s.

Love a good game of cricket on the green with a pint of cidre - only been to a couple of one day internationals years ago so please pardon the blonde question how do I get tickets for the Aegas Bowl ?
Im off to Lords with the old man at the end of the month for one of the one dayers. In regard to our team, we (the ECB) need to completely rebuild. Keep two or three key older players like Cook and Prior and build the team around them using side with young fresh players and treat it like a 10 year plan. Yes we'd get a tanking for a few seasons but then the team would get stronger and better. This is what the Windies did back in the late 70s and 80s (Watch Fire in Babylon for the story) and they were bloody unstoppable. Our team is too old and too tired at the moment
Such a pity the Windies are now so dire. Imagine what Test cricket would be like with a stonking Windies team like in the 70s.
