As mentioned, on my last day in London, I went to Lords Cricket Ground and was lucky to get the last tour of the day, and I even saw the English Team practicing.  The tour was alright, go to walk around the stadium, enter the changing rooms, walk through the Museum, and watch the national team practicing for a while.

The famous M.C.C. section of the ground. On both sides, are the changing room of both teams, on the middle layer is where the presentation occurs, and when a batsmen gets out, he walks into the changing room, where the red vodafone advertising board is located (in the center) and, only M.C.C. members can sit in this section, and to watch a game, men's have to be in a suit, and women is proper business cloths (true cricket fans aren't they?)

 

The grandstand, where an average tickets costs about 50 British Pounds.

 

The NATWEST Media Center in the centre (located on the Nursery End), and the pitch in the center, was the pitch used for the first nPower test between England and Pakistan, and all Pakistani supporters know what happened inside three cricketing days!
