Cricket legend Shane Warne is coming to Lord's - possibly for the last time. Warne's Rajasthan Royals team take on Middlesex Panthers on Monday 6 July - tickets start at just £5.

Ticket news

On Monday 6 June Warne brings his Indian Premier League team, the Rajasthan Royals, to Lord's to take on 2008 Twenty20 Cup winners, Middlesex Panthers.

Tickets start at just £5 for under-16s and only £20 for adults. With Warne just one of a host of cricketing talent on a day packed with Bollywood glamour it's a day not to be missed.

Warne: '...of the century'

Warne again - celebrating another wicket
Warne is arguably cricket's best ever spin bowler. With 708 Test wickets to his name and more than 1,000 victims in international cricket, Warne's cricketing class is undoubted.

Both on and off the field he has always been one of the sport's greatest characters.

From tabloid headlines to the "ball of the century"; 'hair solutions' to one of Wisden's cricketers of the century (the only specialist bowler in the list of eleven) - Warne is a great entertainer as well as a truly great cricketer.

His Rajasthan side is littered with more star names too.

Fresh from helping Pakistan lift the ICC World Twenty20 at Lord's, wicket-keeper Kamran Akmal will be behind the stumps.

There are four more ICC World T20 stars in the squad too:

1. Yusuf Pathan, the big-hitting, all-action all-rounder who smashed 33 from just 17 balls at Lord's.

2. Ravindra Jadeja the talented all-rounder took two key wickets in that same match: those of Kevin Pietersen and Ravi Bopara.

3. Sohail Tanveer is another from the World T20 champions, Pakistan. Fans at Lord's may remember Tanveer's first over against Sri Lanka in the group matches... it lasted 11 deliveries and cost 18 runs!

4. Johan Botha: the spin bowling all-rounder took 3/16 against India during South Africa's serene run to the World T20 semi-finals.

... and that's just the T20 internationals. There are a host of Test stars (see squad lists left) too.

Middlesex have a few stars of their own: Owais Shah was part of England's World T20 squad, as was Eoin Morgan.

Murali Kartik has a Twenty20 cap playing for India too as well as eight Test and 37 ODI caps.

Are you Mr. & Mrs. Bollywood?
