I think I can only attend one of WI vs Pakistan or WI vs India. Since you're going to WI vs Pakistan, that's the one I will go to.

I don't think I'll be going to Wembley to watch two German sides play against each other....
:mrgreen:
Sales are a bit slow for the Champions Trophy match between WIndies and Pakistan, as tickets are only on sale for two stands right now:

https://www.eticketing.co.uk/icc-champi ... emref=1539" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

http://www.kiaoval.com/tickets/icc-champions-trophy/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The other stands are likely to be opened up later, but the ICC wants £50 per ticket...I'm not sure that it's worth it.

What do you think, Gils?

I just got an email from the ICC team saying that Family Circle tickets are sold out, so these are what's left....

These tickets are more expensive than the tickets I got for the London athletics....

There's no way around the cost so I'll just have to take what I can get.

I'll try to get my ticket before the end of this week, what stand is you're ticket for ?

Afro this is your chance to finally see the windies in the flesh instead of watching them on tv or computer.
