The internationally renown Lashings World XI is coming to St Albans on the 28th of June 2024 for a game like no other.

The current squad includes the likes of Sir Curtley Ambrose, Courtney Walsh, Ryan Sidebottom and Anya Shrubsole. As well as the all-star lineup, the match will be commentated on by legendary broadcaster Henry Blofeld OBE.
A spokesperson for the club said:
“It’s something we’ve been working on for quite some time and after many background meetings over the last few months we are delighted that we will be hosting such a prestigious event for the local community, businesses and wider cricket family.”

A large marquee will host a three-course lunch with complimentary wine alongside Lashings players, and be wrapped up with a live auction with some top quality prizes that you won’t want to miss.
