4,000 people in a 65,000 stadium, should be a good look for the county game

In rugby, teams like Sarries and Quins pack Twikkenham once or twice per year. I think if packaged/marketted similarly, there could be some big crowds. Great chance to reach out to inner city too

I wouldn't be surprised if the Olynpic Stadium was looked at as a future Test/ODI venue.

Meaning even less chance of Tests outside of London........

essex get more than 4000 for T20, dont they?

even middlesex have had 27000 crowds in T20. i think they will fill the stadium, as a one off

Stupid plan to build a ground with 20 thousand more seats
