Cricket Tours & Tournaments

The game of cricket has a known history spanning from the 16th century to the present day and by the 17th century the game was quite popular as a rural pastime. Records show that an organised match was held at the Artillery Grounds, Finsbury, London, in 1730 and by the middle of the 18th century cricket was being played at every level of society, from village greens to wealthy estates.

The centre of power in the game shifted to London, most notably with the establishment of the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), which had its headquarters at Lord's ground. In 1835 the MCC gave cricket its first formal laws, which still stand largely intact today. The game also underwent a fundamental change of organisation with the formation for the first time of county clubs with all the modern county clubs, starting with Sussex in 1839, founded during the 19th century.
