Durham are expecting bumper home crowds for this year’s Friends Life t20 games, having already beaten the number of season tickets sold in 2011.

With three Sunday afternoon matches and a Friday evening clash with Yorkshire, this explosive format will provide excellent entertainment especially with the addition of Herschelle Gibbs and Mitchell Johnson to Durham’s squad.

FLt20 season tickets offer fantastic value to supporters, giving them admission to all five home games for just £50 for adults and £15 for juniors. Durham members are entitled to a rate of £30 for adults and £10 for juniors.

Tickets for individual games are also available, priced at £15 for adults when purchased in advance (£20 on the day) and £5 for juniors.

FLt20 season tickets and individual match tickets can be purchased online at www.durhamccc.co.uk or by calling the Durham box office during office hours on 0844 499 4466.

Durham chief executive David Harker said: “Durham CCC always has superb support and to see people committing early to coming down to the games is great to see.

Emirates Durham ICG

The Emirates Durham ICG is set to be busy for the Friends Life t20 with more season tickets than for the previous year already sold

“It’s a massive boost for the team to come out to a packed stadium and we’re encouraging fans to buy their tickets now so they don’t miss out on being part of an action packed June and July with Durham Dynamos.

“We’re looking forward to welcoming all supporters, existing and new, to Emirates Durham ICG this summer for what we expect will be a massively competitive and really fun competition to watch.

“We have invested in two outstanding overseas players in Herschelle Gibbs and Mitchell Johnson, both of whom are talented cricketers experienced in t20 cricket but also real characters who will undoubtedly be contributing some explosive performances as we look to go one better than our quarter final-place last season.”
