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

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...

1878: The Australians bowl out MCC twice in one day

1878: The Australians bowl out MCC twice in one day

Ten years after the Aboriginal tour of 1868, a full representative side at last set out from Australia to tour Britain. The Aboriginals had been viewed as a curiosity, their appearances entertainments rather than serious sporting contests. Few expected the 1878 side to be mu...

2006: Claire Taylor scores 156 not out for England against India

Claire Taylor’s first One-Day International appearance at Lord’s in 2001 saw her top score with 50 not out against Australia. The 156 not out she made against India in her next innings at the Ground remains the highest ODI score ever made at the Home of Cricket by a batsman ...

1963: Colin Cowdrey bats with a broken arm for England against West Indies

1963 was an exciting year for cricket. The Gillette Cup brought new vitality to the county game and the West Indies were on tour, led for the first time in England by a black captain - Frank Worrell. Worrell’s first tour in the job, to Australia in 1960-61, had produced cric...

1864: W.G. Grace plays at Lord's for the first time

1864: W.G. Grace plays at Lord's for the first time

It would be easy to see the year 1864 as the starting point for modern cricket. MCC legalised over-arm bowling, the first edition of Wisden Cricketers’ Almanack appeared and a young William Gilbert Grace, just three days beyond his 16 th birthday, made his first appearanc...

1952: Vinoo Mankad scores 184 and takes 5-196 for India against England

1952: Vinoo Mankad scores 184 and takes 5-196 for India against England

India arrived at Lord’s for the second Test of their 1952 series in something approaching a state of shock. England had inflicted a crushing defeat on them at Headingley, reducing them to 0 for 4 at the start of their second innings, but at Lord’s India were boosted by the r...

1788: MCC issues a Code of Laws for Cricket

1788: MCC issues a Code of Laws for Cricket

The first generally accepted code of Laws for cricket was issued in 1744. Prior to that, rules were generally agreed by the participants in advance of a given match, such as those agreed by the Duke of Richmond and Mr Brodrick in 1727. Neither these, nor the later Laws, offe...

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...

2002: India beat England in a dramatic NatWest Series Final

2002: India beat England in a dramatic NatWest Series Final

A target of 326 to win a 50-over One-Day International is nothing extraordinary today. But in 2002 such a run-chase seemed beyond all but the most inspired of batting line-ups. Only twice before had a team made over 300 in an ODI at Lord’s, and one of those had been in a 60-...
