Twenty20 cricket mania continues as current release of online tickets sell out in just two days!

The current release of online tickets for the NatWest International Twenty20 between England and Australia has sold out in just two days.

England and Australia will go head to head in a Twenty20 match next summer as the latest form of cricket heads towards the International stage.

The match will see some of the biggest hitters in the game gather at the Rose Bowl as the likes of Flintoff, Gilchrist, Symonds and Harvey are all likely to feature.

Symonds and Harvey have dominated the Twenty20 game in England since it's creation with Harvey the first ever player to reach three figures, before Symonds destroyed Middlesex in devastating innings of 112 from a mere 43 balls to take the record for the quickest ever to three figures (34 balls / 37 mins).

Flintoff who has only managed to play three games in between International commitments has also taken a keen fancy to the game scoring 131 runs in three innings with a somewhat healthy strike rate of 189.85!

The only tickets now remaining for this game are the ones allotted to the Hampshire County Cricket Club's members.
