Fans are advised that warm up matches are what the name implies; they are not official ODIs but are designed to allow teams the chance to prepare for the World Cup. They operate under slightly different rules with up to 15 players able to be used throughout the game. The range of activities and spectator experiences in and around warm up venues will in most cases be less than what is provided during the World Cup itself.

You can select a maximum of eight (8) tickets per person per warm up match. No group bookings are available for warm up matches.

Warm up tickets are only available online and delivered as a Print at Home email PDF ticket.

Please be aware not all seating areas or gates within the venue will be operating or available for warm up matches and ticket holders will be guided to available seating areas by venue staff.

Tickets are subject to availability. Ticket Terms and Conditions and purchase conditions apply.

Enjoy. Happy Friday.

    .
    Some of these matches they will lock the gates ……. to stop people leaving !!!

    I'd really like to see The Netherlands as over the years they and Ireland often give Australia a fright in these competitions
    Now with T20 taking off like it has maybe The Netherlands & Ireland will get invited to a T20 series as they should be more suited to them

          More than makes up for none of the Carlton tri-series ODIs being played here.

        The SCG gets quite hot in summer.

        Perhaps Scott could get some OzBargain tank tops made.

  • Pakistan vs England allocation already exhausted? wtf?

  • Does the $6.00 fee apply anytime, or just a generic message?

  • Awesome, Adelaide gets Australia v India on a Sunday, tickets secured!, Thanks to the OP.

  • both Pakistan games have been exhausted. Just wondering how can SCG run out of capacity in a few hours for a warm up game. Must be a very limited allocation.

    • Only the bottom level open to save costs. Pakis love their cricket.

    • Man i wanted to see Afridi go at the bowler. I would buy the ticket for group match but there is no pakistan match in sydney. what are the chances that pakistan gets to the semifinal in sydney?

  • So are there 50 overs each??

  • This is the best Post in ozbargain that I have seen. THANKS SOOO MUCH!

  • Thanks.. taking family to Aus vs India at ADL Oval

  • Hows the turnout at Adelaide Oval today?
    They're expecting 27,000 plus members.

    • +1

      I would say no more than 20k including members. Plenty of empty seats. Good atmosphere anyway

      Media said it was sold out but I reckon the GA area was only about 15-20% capacity. Guessing a lot of people just ordered their Free tickets and either forgot or never turned up. It was hot in the sun but plenty of shady spots up high.

      Was a good game if you were supporting AUS. My Kids enjoyed it and a few friends who took their kids also.
      First time Ive been to the Adelaide oval since redevelopment

      • Glad you guys enjoyed it.
        Can't say I haven't been there since redevelopment.. :p

    • +1

      I heard on ABC Grandstand that the crowd was only 13k. I guess when tickets are free, people don't value them!

      • Perhaps they only sold part of the capacity of the ground for this match and didn't want a capacity crowd. Even though the tickets were free they still would have had to pay security staff, vendor staff and other support staff. If they deliberately sold less tickets than the ground capacity they would have been able to only hire a reduced number of staff for the day.

        • I would say that it is in their interest to get as many people in so that they have:
          - more people to advertise to
          - more people to buy food and drinks

  • Is there anywhere I can check to see if the match at the SCG today is rained out?

    It's raining sporadically at the moment.

    • +1

      I guess its started but cricket.com.au is a good start.
      Matches are never called off pregame aka 3 hours before due to rain.

  • Anyone go to the SCG today?

    We got evacuated at the end. :S
