Throughout August and September 2022, you can watch the men\u2019s England cricket team go up against South Africa in three test matches across Manchester and London.<\/p>\n

From Wednesday 17th August to Sunday 21st August, England and South Africa will play at Lord\u2019s Cricket Ground in London. From Thursday 25th August to Monday 29th August, the teams will be at the iconic home of Lancashire Cricket Club, Emirates Old Trafford. Then, from Thursday 8th September to Monday 12th September, they\u2019re back in London at The Oval.<\/p>\n

England\u2019s captain Ben Stokes is hoping to lead the team to victory against Mark Boucher\u2019s South Africa, one of the world\u2019s leading cricket nations. Speaking to BBC Test Match Special, Stokes said: \u201cI know the bigger picture of it \u2014 trying to draw a series \u2014 but every game for me is bigger than results. It is bigger than that \u2014 it is about Test cricket.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the cricketing world, Test cricket is considered the game\u2019s highest standard and it has the longest match duration. Five days are blocked out for a Test match, and the full five days are usually taken up. Each day of a Test match is split into three sessions: morning, afternoon and evening. With each third lasting about two hours. That\u2019s a whole lot of cricket!<\/p>\n

Test cricket is played between two teams, in this case, England vs South Africa. Both teams have 10 wickets to play with, and their innings generally end when 10 batsmen have been dismissed. However, there\u2019s the option to declare the innings at any time if the captain of the batting side feels they have enough runs to exert a result.<\/p>\n

For cricket fans, Test matches are huge events in the sporting calendar, and with a match going on for up to five days, you certainly get a lot of sport for your money. Here\u2019s how you can get tickets.<\/p>\n
