They apparently sold out the England vs New Zealand game (or within a couple of hundred at most) but a lot didn't show likely due to the forecast.Pundits calling for Cardiff to not hold any international cricket after this tournament due to the poor attendances. I couldn't believe how few were at the Bangladesh v New Zealand game, looked like far more empty seats than people there.
The ticketing system is pretty shit though. No choice of where you sit other than in a price band which could be any large section of the ground. Whenever I've gone to cricket I've always picked the exact seats I want (other than Lords for The Ashes where it's a ballot and you take what you're given!).
Lots of tickets still available in Cardiff for England's semi-final on Wednesday. Weather isn't looking like being a factor currently. I was surprised to hear if the match was abandoned due to rain then the team who finished higher in the group stages would progress to the final, thankfully it doesn't look like that's going to happen as that would be pretty shit for the competition and cricket.
