Lord's May Offer UK Fun in the Sun

Lord's may offer UK fun in the sun For live sport lovers who've had a bit too much of football this summer, a welcome break may come in the first one day International (ODI), which starts on June 17th.

Some of England's famed 'barmy army' fans will no doubt be jumping on a flight down to London to soak up the atmosphere, good cricket and maybe even bask in the capital's recent sunshine with a beer or two.

England fans will be hoping that the team perform better in the first of five matches against Sri Lanka than the last match of the recent test series, in which world class spin bowler Muttiah Muralitharan caused havoc with his deadly Doosra.

Freddie Flintoff's team are boosted by the fitness of Kevin Pietersen, who struggled with a hamstring injury in his last match.

The players will warm up in the limited overs 20-20 match, which is taking place tonight at 19:15 BST, carefully scheduled to avoid a clash with England's football World Cup match with Trinidad and Tobago.
