Looks like all the grounds will be charging extortionate prices for tickets. It was £24 to get into Trent Bridge in 2001...

 I thought ours were dear until I saw everyone else's.

I suupose when you compare it to the Premiership it works out cheap, it just does'nt seem it when you're paying.

5 days in Mumbai / Kolkata would be cheaper than Lords for me.

If you can get one, been trying all morning via link to ripoffmaster, no go for trent bridge, looks like camping out on doorstep.
Other sites quoting extreme prices, may end up in arm chair at this rate, anyone know of a source?

In my experience there are always further releases of tickets closer to the date, even sometimes a day or two before. Don't go buying rip-off tickets off Ebay, Seatwave, and the like. You may also find fellow Barmies looking to off-load spares at face value on here. There will also be people outside the ground on the day looking to off-load the odd spare to a genuine fan rather than a tout, and if it comes down to it as an absolute last resort, you'll almost certainly get a better deal off one of the touts outside the ground on the day than you will on Ebay, etc.

 Last time i went to Old Trafford for the Ashes in 2005,it was the Saturday,pissed down for most of the day,i think about 16 overs were bowled,just more than the quota to get a decent wedge of ticket money back. :(

No no no, I'm sure that's not correct. I think you're getting your grounds mixed up .... rain ? Hardly.
