Well I've been to The Oval on and off for a few years for a day's test cricket. I've increasingly got frustrated by the lack of value. This year's game is well into mid September and I reckoned you'd have very little chance of getting 90 overs in what with the light fading after 6pm and the generally tardy over rates. (As an aside I think a bit like in both branches of rugby the clock should be stopped as soon as review is signalled and not switched on again until the decision is made and all of that time should be added on straight away).
You have to buy a peak train ticket to get in on time from where I live and when I saw a seat in the Peter May stand was £100 I decided not to bother. I know plenty of people will go and no doubt it's a sell out but I couldn't really justify the thick end of £200 for a day out.
