Known as the ‘Home of Cricket’, Lord’s Cricket Ground in England, undoubtedly, is the legendary ground and the haven of the gentleman’s game.
There is a tradition at Lord’s for a distinguished visitor to ring the large silver bell outside the Bowler’s Bar of the Pavilion, five minutes before the start of play in a Test Match. This was installed to further make it a unique cricket destination.
