Marylebone Cricket Club members said that they "shot themselves in the foot" by not filling the Lord's pavilion on Sunday to watch England beat India in a sold-out Women's Cricket World Cup final, according to Ivo Tennant of the LONDON TIMES. Mark Peel, a member since '76, said, "The club could incorporate a few more female members or members could take women into the pavilion for this sort of final -- women's cricket is still under the radar for many people when the group fixtures are held in places like Derby and Bristol. More people would have gone if it had been an England vs. Australia final. But I was surprised by how few there were, having heard the final was a sell-out." John Fingleton, an MCC member since '68 who regularly watches more than 50 days of cricket a summer at Lord's, said, "This was yet another occasion in which, having done quite a lot right in staging the final, we shot ourselves in the foot. Let's hope that next time we might actually wake up and learn from our entirely avoidable errors" (LONDON TIMES, 7/25).
