One-off Women's Test: Lord's Prepares For Landmark Game As England, India Renew Red-ball Rivalry (preview)
Melbourne Cricket Ground: Cricket's most celebrated venue is set to witness a long-awaited milestone when Lord's stages its first-ever women's Test beginning Friday, with England and India meeting in a one-off contest that carries significance far beyond the result.
More than 140 years after the ground hosted its inaugural men's Test, the women's game finally arrives at the ‘Home of Cricket’, a development that has been widely viewed as another important step in the sport's push towards greater equality. The occasion has already generated unprecedented interest, with over 30,000 tickets sold across the four days, the highest attendance ever recorded for a women's Test in the United Kingdom.
The fixture also comes less than three years after an independent review into equity in English cricket criticised the absence of women's Test cricket at Lord's, making this week's match symbolic as well as competitive.
