This audio description service was originally introduced in mid June to enable blind and partially sighted spectators within Lord's ground to enjoy ball by ball commentary via specially supplied headsets.

The MCC's Head of Cricket, John Stephenson, who will be captaining the MCC against Ireland, said: "Streaming live commentaries on our website widens the availability of cricket to those supporters who avidly follow the game but are unable to travel to Lord's.

For the teams, and their fans, the matches where we will have commentaries are equally as important as any Test match or one day international."

The audio description service at Lord's was made possible with the assistance of RNIB and BBC Radio.

BBC Test Match Special provide the commentary for the blind and partially sighted spectators on major match days at Lord's.

BBC London cover every Middlesex game and will also have live streaming of the NatWest Women's Series at Lord's on Monday August 14.
