1976: The first Women's ODI is held at Lord's

There was a time, still within living memory, when the Pavilion at Lord’s had very much the atmosphere of an exclusive gentlemen’s club. There were no women Members of MCC and on match days even female staff members were expected to avoid popular areas like the Long Room. Th...

1972: Australia beat England in the first Men's ODI held at Lord's

The first ever One-Day International took place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in 1971, a last-minute replacement for a washed out Ashes Test. It would be more than 18 months before any further ODI cricket took place, but this time the matches were part of the official sche...

1963: The first Gillette Cup Final is held at Lord's

1963: The first Gillette Cup Final is held at Lord's

By the start of the 1960s the post-war boom in county cricket was long over. Although the 1950s had seen an England team dominant in Test Matches, at domestic level the game was increasingly seen as stagnant, over cautious and lacking in entertainment value. The competing le...

1937: Patsy Hendren appears in a first-class match at Lord's for the last time

One of the game’s most prolific run-scorers whose swift footwork made him particularly adept against spin, ‘Patsy’ Hendren is a true legend of Lord’s. Third on the all-time list for first-class runs worldwide and behind only Jack Hobbs in number of centuries, Hendren amassed...

1926: The Father Time weathervane is gifted to MCC

Even among MCC’s most senior Members, few can claim to have seen more than 100 Test Matches at Lord’s. But one familiar face on the Ground has done just that. He first watched England beat West Indies by an innings and 58 runs in June 1928. He was at Lord’s for Don Bradman’s...

In 1991, MCC’s Curator of Collections Stephen Green presented a paper to the Club’s Arts & Library sub-committee outlining the growth of MCC’s collection of cricket portraits since 1890. The results, he said, had been piecemeal and a number of significant cricketers from rec...

1987: Gordon Greenidge's century for MCC earns him a place on the home honours board

1987: Gordon Greenidge's century for MCC earns him a place on the home honours board

In almost a century and a half of Test cricket at Lord’s, only one man has scored a hundred for both home and away teams and had their name inscribed in the Honours Boards in both dressing rooms. That the man is Gordon Greenidge should perhaps be no great surprise. While Gre...

1998: The new Grand Stand is completed

1998: The new Grand Stand is completed

Like the Pavilion, the current Grand Stand at Lord’s is the third to stand on the site. The first was opened in 1867, its construction funded by a private syndicate of MCC Members from whom the Club bought the stand two years later. The stand was 175ft long by 30ft high, con...
