Website | EmailLords Cricket Ground is the home ground of three teams - England, Middlesex, and the MCC (Marylebone Cricket Club). England plays their test matches and one-days here, it's the county ground for Middlesex, and the MCC also puts out teams. The MCC is actually the governing body of the game of cricket. All the big finals are played here, as well as some more off-the-wall games, such as Eton versus Harrow and Oxford versus Cambridge Universities. The best way to see Lord's (and to start learning how cricket is played if you're not familiar with it) is to take a tour of the ground. This lasts for around an hour and a half, and takes in such highlights as the new Media Centre, the famous Long Room, the Museum and the Lords pub, where many a cricket player has enjoyed a pint after a game.
